Clinton To Attend Forum At Monica Goodling's Alma Mater

Messiah College, a small Christian school in Pennsylvania staging a bipartisan "Compassion Forum'' in early April - nine days before the Keystone State's Democratic primary election - says Sen. Hillary Clinton has accepted an invitation extended to all three of the presidential candidates.

The rest should go, too. They'd have a lot to talk about:

Sen. Barack Obama's controversial and retired pastor, and Sen. Hillary Clinton's contention that she would have walked out on the Rev. Jeremiah Wright after making the remarks from the pulpit that he did, as well as Sen. John McCain's endorsement by the Rev. John Hagee, who has maintained that New Orleans invited the wrath of God with the sins committed by its people.

Do Hillary's religious cult "The Family" know about this? They might not approve.

Hillary Clinton voted against Senate Amendment 4228, which would have made the sale of cluster bombs illegal to countries that use them on civilian populations. Note that- civilian populations. Clinton voted against that and she has the nerve to attend a compassion seminar? How compassionate are cluster bombs killing young children?

Oooo. Hillary's plane flies over John Wayne Gacey's house. Coincidence?

Hillary Rodham Clinton's lies about risking her life under sniper fire during a visit to Bosnia as first lady have infuriated the US military brass and troops.
"She has no sense of what a statement like that does to soldiers," fumed retired Maj. Gen. Walter Stewart, the former head of the Pennsylvania National Guard.
"She is insulting the command in its entirety," he said yesterday.

Consider the source: Thw Swamp is part of the Wash trib, a moonie publication and anything printed there is susect, to say the least. However you could assume that they are experts on religious cults and moonbat religious leaders.

Just sayin'.

This time Sen. Clinton definitely found her voice. She found it in form of Monica Goodling. Now she will ponder with goodling trying to explain her ways to win the nomination. How interesting.

She has scheduling conflict to attend a major debate in NC. Heck she does have time to attend events with Monica Goodling.

Well, my first comment had no swear words and was not defamatory. It is important to note - in the context of the campaign - that the subject of this post is also a grad of a fundamentalist law school, one associated with the same TV evangelist that Senator Clinton recently visited. The subj of this post was also Ass't to former AG Gonzalez, and her testimony before Congress was less than commendable...I think that's vague enough not to offend...

She's obviously looking to interview some "Lawyers" a la her hero BUSH so she can fill all the vacancies in the Judicial Branch if an "Act of God" would ever make her President. She knows that no one works against the needs of the American People like a Conservative Lawyer. She remembers her own time fight against the public good as a lawyer for Wal-Mart!!!!!!!

Obama skipped a major Black Leaders conference in Louisiana that Hillary attended recently yet Obama sticks up for his extremist mentor during the Pastor disaster. Clinton has now shown leadership in attending this one, even if this college is personally out of line in many cases. Seems that the facts on how supposedly *divisive* Clinton is do not hold water in realty, especially when it come to the Obama judgment on how he sides with.

google.rev.manning.........I see you mentioned water, now do you really believe that Hill the Schrill was the one that parted the red sea?

The point of my post is that Obama says he is a uniter but blew off a major Black leadership conference that Clinton attended, yet goes to bat for a divisive character like Wright. I know that this college is an evangelical concern and I really do not support their position regarding the separation of church and state among other things. However the equivalency with Wright is inaccurate and Obama has not lived up to his podium rhetoric in this regard.

He blew the Black Conference off, and rightly so bacause POTUS reps all Americans. Given the issues facing him now, I'd say it was a righteous move. Most are people trying to remain viable in the political/media arena, with motives directly involving our constituency - not America at large. What is it about change don't you understand? The greatest asset that bi-racial Americans enjoy(and there are few), is the ability to think outside the box that racial identity creates to form thought. Indeed it's the combination of two races that takes thoughts from both to form one. I'll say again Pastors behind the Pulpit - Politicians on their stumps, one argues for souls - the other for votes. And never should the two meet, except on their day of prayer.

A college that graduates christian? lawyers that cross the line

and that are dangerously lacking in knowledge of the constitution, check and balances, role of the courts; definition of "effective prosecutorial standards", and last but not least lawyers whose only definition of "ethics" is "situational ethics".

And the get together is about "compassion" ...... for whom? based on whose definition??

I wonder sometimes if she's trying to lay the groundwork for a McCain/Clinton Unity ticket against Obama?

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 10:48 AM on 03/26/2008

She would probably say that McCain can be her VP. And Bill Clinton would start saying that Clinton/McCain would make a "dream ticket."

And of course Ms. Goodling is a grad of Pat Robertson's Regency U Law School.
And of course Ms. Goodling was the star of AG Gonzalez's DOJ.
And of course Ms. Goodling was tongue-tied at her appearance before Congress.
So yeah we should all go to PA and have this little chat. Really, we should. It's kind of mandatory and will be an education experience.

are these candidates running for top preacher of a religious institution or president of a country? what happened to separation of church and state? and people who go to church don't read the papers and watch t.v like everyone else who gets their political info from these sources, that they have to go to church to bring the political "good news?" insane.
