Hillary Clinton spoke out against the decades-old law being enforced by the Trump administration, which forbids children from being incarcerated with their parents when they illegally cross the U.S. border. Probably after her staff showed her where the border was, she claimed that holding Democrats responsible for this law was “an outright lie.”
The recent winner of Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger Award went on to say, “Every parent who has ever held a child in their arms, every human being with a sense of compassion and decency, should be outraged.” When you’re that numb to your own hypocrisy, you can’t see the irony.
Further, Mrs. Clinton lectured, “those who selectively use the Bible to justify this cruelty are ignoring a central tenet of Christianity.” And then she proceeded to selectively use the Bible out of context, citing that “Jesus said suffer the little children onto me. He did not say let the children suffer.” Unless of course, they suffer through poisoning or suctioning inside the womb, which she supports.
Lastly, she enlightened America: “I’ve studied the Bible, both the Old and the New Testament. What is being done using the name of religion is contrary to everything I was ever taught.” This begs the question: What part of Hillary Clinton’s life is not contrary to everything she was taught?
