One more time: It’s the illegality, stupid

“It is certainly not in keeping with my understanding of the Scriptures, because this bill would literally criminalize the Good Samaritan and probably even Jesus himself.”

– Hillary Clinton on a House bill that would make illegal immigration…well, illegal

Why do I get the heebie-jeebies when Hillary Clinton starts talking about Jesus? I think she’d be better off if she steered clear of Biblical references and just stuck to attorneyspeak:

“It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘illegal’ is. If ‘illegal’ means ‘felony’ but never has been, that is one thing. If it means ‘misdemeanor’ that’s another thing. Now, if someone had asked me on say…Tuesday, are you thinking about any alternative kind of legislation in regards to an undocumented immigrant, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, and used the term ‘undocumented worker,’ I would have said no. And it would have been completely true.”

Doesn’t she ever pay attention when her husband’s lips are moving?
