Hillary a “Conservative Christian?”

Until today, I thought I’d heard it all! Well, not really, but a comment made today on my radio show, quite frankly almost made me fall off my chair.

Oh yeah, I haven’t blogged in quite awhile, but I’ve missed it immensely. How’s everybody doing out there in the blogosphere? With an early morning radio show for three hours daily, I have time to talk alot, but my time to write has suffered. Sigh! I hope those of you who regularly check this site, miss me as much as I miss you.

Anywho….I’m getting off topic.

I have a regular Washington correspondent with whom I talk with every day. Today she said that people who know Hillary Cinton very well, know that she’s a "conservative Christian." WHAT? I mentioned that she’s pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, etc. Me thinks you just insulted authentic conservative Christians!

Now granted the lady I was speaking with is a Bush hater, liberal beyond belief woman who may have heard Sen. Clinton say that she "prayed" while responding to a question from some talk show model who asked her about how she dealt with Billy’s little phianderings so perhaps to her that means she must be a conservative Christian. I was so taken aback that I said something like "that’s just silly!" I was actually in an almost catatonic state of shock!

To me it sounded very much like Chillary is pandering to South Carolina especially since this has never been a part of her campaign rhetoric!

Will people in South Carolina believe it? I think they’re smarter than that personally.

But, I’d sure be interested in your comments. Does Hillary Clinton come off as a conservative Christian to you? Why? Why not?

I hope you have a great weekend! I’m gonna make sure I check the site more regularly than I have been able to recently. Ya’ll take care now, ya here!

When you grow up listening to conservative talk radio it is difficult to believe that Hillary could be any kind of Christian at all. All true Christians are conservative… right? Well, from my perspective, the one snapping to judgement on the state of someone’s spirituality is most likely the furthest from Christ-likeness.
Imagine it were somehow you who was convinced you were a model Christian when in fact you were not.
Imagine someone who believed that their spiritual beliefs were best kept private when working to serve the interests of all U.S. citizens; some of whom did not share the same beliefs.
Imagine a candidate using their claims of Christianity for political gain.
Imagine Hillary attending a bible study with four other conservative Christian Republican senators. Imagine one of those Republicans walking out because she walked in.
Imagine that you are wrong. I can say this because I do this. I live in a rural community and grew up in a conservative Mennonite family without a TV. And, if you didn’t know me, you would probably assume that I was a Hillary hater.
