Last night, during the ABC debate, Hillary made clear that she would quite her church if she didn't agree with her pastor's sermons. Here is what Hillary had to say:
Transcript:
I would have not been able to stay in the church. And maybe it's, you know, just, again, a personal reflection...Okay, so we know that Hillary would quit her church of twenty years if the priest, or pastor, gave a sermon that she found objectionable. Fair enough. Then this begs the question as to what sermons would Hillary not find objectionable. Would Hillary stay in her church, for example, if her pastor gave a sermon in favor of the anti-gay Federal Marriage Amendment? How about if her pastor gave a sermon calling for the repeal of Roe v. Wade? Or a sermon calling for America to set up an electronic fence to keep Mexicans out of our country?
I'm quite serious. Hillary went on national TV last night and raised the issue of when and where she would quit her church over the sermons of her pastor. She told all of America that this is an issue we should judge our future president on. Then America deserves to know just what standard Hillary has for quitting her church. Or is gay-bashing, choice-bashing, and Latino-bashing okay in Hillary Clinton's eyes? She raised the issue, we deserve an answer. (Maybe we can beg Sean Hannity to ask ABC to ask her the question?)
