Sometimes, a few sentences tell you more about a person—and, more importantly, an ideology—than a learned thesis.
That is the case with tweets from Hillary Clinton and former President Barack Obama two days ago in response to the mass murder of more than 300 Christians and others in Sri Lanka.
Their tweets are worth serious analysis because they reveal a great deal about the left. Of course, they reveal a great deal about Clinton and Obama, too, but that doesn’t interest me.
And that, too, is important. Many Americans—especially conservatives and “independents”—are more interested in individual politicians than in political ideologies.
Many conservatives have long been fixated on Clinton—so much so that probably any other Democrat would have defeated Donald Trump, as conservative anger specifically toward her propelled many people to the polls.
Similarly, Republican Never-Trumpers are fixated on Trump rather than policy. They care more about Trump’s personal flaws than about the mortal dangers the left poses to America and the West or about the uniquely successful conservative policies Trump promulgates.
And independents all claim to vote “for the person, not the party.”
Only leftists understand that one must vote left no matter who the Democrat is, no matter who the Republican opponent is. Leftists are completely interchangeable: There is no ideological difference among the 20 or so Democrats running for president. Mayor Pete Buttigieg is not one degree to the right of Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren.
That is why it is important to understand Clinton and Obama’s tweets: to understand the left, not to understand her or him.
Here are the tweets:
Obama: “The attacks on tourists and Easter worshippers in Sri Lanka are an attack on humanity. On a day devoted to love, redemption, and renewal, we pray for the victims and stand with the people of Sri Lanka.”

Three hours later, Clinton tweeted: “On this holy weekend for many faiths, we must stand united against hatred and violence. I’m praying for everyone affected by today’s horrific attacks on Easter worshippers and travelers in Sri Lanka.”

As they both spelled “worshipers” the same idiosyncratic way and used the term “Easter worshippers,” it is likely they either had the same writers or Clinton copied Obama.
Here’s what’s critical: Neither used the word “Christians.” And in order to avoid doing so, they went so far as to make up a new term—”Easter worshippers”—heretofore unknown to any Christian.
When Jews were murdered at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Clinton mentioned the synagogue in a tweet. But in her post-Sri Lanka tweet, despite the bombing of three churches filled with Christians, Clinton made no mention of church or churches.
In a tweet after the massacre of Muslims in New Zealand, she wrote that her heart broke for “the global Muslim community.” But in her latest tweet, not a word about Christians or the global Christian community.
Obama similarly wrote in his tweet about New Zealand that he was grieving with “the Muslim community” over the “horrible massacre in the Mosques.” But in his tweet about Sri Lanka, there is no mention of Christians or churches.
The reason neither of them mentioned Christians or churches is that the left has essentially forbidden mention of all the anti-Christian murders perpetrated by Muslims in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and of all the Muslim desecration of churches in Europe, Africa, and anywhere else.
This is part of the same phenomenon—that I and others have documented—of British police and politicians covering up six years of rape of 1,400 English girls by Muslim “grooming gangs” in Rotherham and elsewhere in England.
Essentially, the left’s rule is that nothing bad—no matter how true—may be said about Muslims or Islam and nothing good—no matter how true—may be said of Christians or Christianity.
Clinton’s post-New Zealand tweet also included these words: “We must continue to fight the perpetuation and normalization of Islamophobia and racism in all its forms. White supremacist terrorists must be condemned by leaders everywhere. Their murderous hatred must be stopped.”
My heart breaks for New Zealand & the global Muslim community. We must continue to fight the perpetuation and normalization of Islamophobia and racism in all its forms.
White supremacist terrorists must be condemned by leaders everywhere. Their murderous hatred must be stopped.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) March 15, 2019
She made sure to condemn “Islamophobia,” but she wrote not a word about the far more destructive and widespread hatred of Christians in the Muslim world, seen in Muslims’ virtual elimination of the Christian communities in the Middle East, the regular murder and kidnappings of Coptic Christians in Egypt, and the murder of Christians in Nigeria.
She calls on “leaders everywhere” to condemn “white supremacist terrorists,” one of the smallest hate groups on Earth, but never calls on leaders everywhere to condemn Islamist terrorists, the largest hate group on Earth.
These two tweets tell you a lot about Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. But far more importantly, they tell you a lot about the left.
I’m sorry that so many people of Christian worldview would still support people with the leftist views on Christianity. Many of my own Church members are good people of color and some are definitely democratic supporters. They are never Trump, and two told me that Trump will send them back to Africa. I was shocked when they said that. I asked them “you really don’t believe that? ” They said they absolutely do. I can’t imagine how that much hatred of our God ordained President exists in such good folks.
I’ve had several chances to share with them all the good and great things about this Administration since. I’m impressed with how much attention to support the Christian worldviews in many ways that’s happening so far. Prayer is the best way to see change in the hearts and minds of the hatred the leftists push upon the masses. God changes our lives, and He can change others. Remember that Jesus Saves! John 3:16
I didn’t KNOW either had a heart?
I didn’t read the article because those of those 2
Just because I may be Islamaphobic doesn’t mean their not trying to take over the world and the United States.
Enough about Hillary Clinton, she is at best a has been.
Obumer and Hillary just care about filling up their bank accounts. These characters should be behind bars.
The big problem is that the left either refuses to see or has been duped into believing they would be spared by an Islamic jihad or ourge if they are successful in their stated and written quest for world domination. All these Globalists and Socialists are foolish to believe they will be spared
Both Obama and Clinton mention “praying”, yet, as you note, never mention use the word “Christian”, which should obviously be the word used in association with Easter, the the celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. To whom are they “praying?” While they use the word “praying” to appeal to Christians, they word their statement to make sure that they have a backdoor if anyone were to accuse them of being Christian.
And what is that? What, precisely, does it tell you?
The answer needs to be clearly, concisely, brutally stated.
, I picked up on them treating Christians like this long ago.. when Obama was president.. In fact, the only mention of Christians that Obama would make was to mock them. I still can remember at his first prayer breakfast where he referred to Christians in a mockery while rolling his eyes.
Indeed we are being destroyed from within. The exact methods set forth in The Communist Manifesto. The education system needed to be infiltrated; done. Begin to push for policy/law changes to remove things from public that instill moral character/integrity; done. Get 2nd and 3rd generation forward of college graduates into politics, local up to national; done. Begin to create situations to pit against each other – different races, different classes of people (financial) and ethnic groups, all to create chaos; done. With indoctrinated beings now in places of law-making, begin to create laws against racism, disparagement of groups, etc.; being done. It’s all text book; Obama followed the steps he learned from Alinsky. The card-carrying communists are still here, stronger than ever; they no longer carry cards identifying them as they had to back in the 50s-60s. They’ve quietly worked and are winning because of their methodical plan that we “never thought could happen here.” Well it has, and few recognize it much less come up with any way to stop/reverse it.
Clinton and Obama are morons, felons, and only care about themselves. Any American that believes otherwise is also a moron. Sorry but it’s true. They did note to destroy this great country than any other individuals dead or alive.
“As they both spelled “worshipers” the same idiosyncratic way and used the term “Easter worshippers,” it is likely they either had the same writers or Clinton copied Obama.“ That spelling is not idiosyncratic. It’s correct.
Nothing else to argue with in this piece.
Jesus is Lord . No one comes to the Father but by Me. Jesus
seems like every morning the Democratic party sends out an email instructing their minions what to say and how exactly to say it every chance they get thus the exact same wordage from all of them.
Personally, I don’t think either one of them could honestly claim the title, “Christian”. I think Obama was and is, a Muslim at heart. Horrible Hillary is a Queen Hillary at heart, that is, her only god is herself, in her quest for power.
have always used worshippers with 2 op’s
not a clinton/boma supporter EVER
Devil Worshippers !!! They smell of Sulfer !!! SHIP THEM OFF TO PRISON ALREADY !!! They deserve to be Hung from the neck until dead for their TREASON.
Their contemp for the Christian community is very obvious and the left democrats have been perpetrating this hate of the Christian community for decades their just more blantent about it now
The AntiChrist has always been described as a multi-headed beast, so we imagined a sea monster. However, It appears that one of the heads is Islam, one of the heads is Liberalism, another is communist. Porn. Drugs. Anything that takes your focus away from God and Jesus is another head of the Beast. The false belief of Gender Identity, and other distractions that focus inward, not outward. HRC and BO are just two smaller heads of the same beast.
We all know George Soros and his money are behind a lot of the bad, disgusting, and immoral goings on in the world today, and I would like to especially know why nothing is being done about that man and his money!!!! Certainly, there must be a way m to get his money from him and stop this nonsense !
As soon as I heard the news of the disastrous desecration of the Christian churches in Sri Lanka, my first thought was that it surely must have been terrorism. Now I believe I heard a couple of days ago that ISIS has claimed the blame? Please correct me about that if I’m wrong. My brain immediately shifted to thinking of the two holy seasons in progress at that time. The ending week of Lent and the celebration of our Lord’s Resurrection for Christians. The season of Passover for the Jews. These are the two groups whom Islamists seem to hate the most. Our God did lead the Jews out of Egypt to inhabit the Promised Land. I guess many of the people who worship in that other eastern religion did not see how our Lord brought miracles right in front of their very eyes and moved those hundreds of thousands away to a whole new land meant especially for them. (And for those who wonder it is still their land–all of it.) That same God has in these days allowed us to see His Son and become His followers. We are called Christians, and He protects us and will protect us. I believe the poet who wrote “Onward Christian Soldiers” said it well. “Gates of hell can never ‘gainst that church prevail; we have Christ’s own promise, and that cannot fail.” I do pray that these two will see if they never have or will see again Jesus and will march as to war with His cross going on before them.
You have to watch what people say. Once again I am completely offended by what Obama and Clinton said. It is shameful
Very disturbing for all Americans. Are all Democratic candidates the same??????
We live in an age where it is considered to call evil good and good evil. Us Christians call it the “End Times” or the times just before the Lord returns to get His people!
On the smaller point, I do no think any dem could defeat Trump because there was a reason he became the nominee.
And I don’t think any other rep could have defeated Hillary.
Easter is about Jesus resurrection only not a bunch of religions and Christianity is about a relationship with Jesus not a religion I am sure neither one of them has it sad for them both !!!!
The reason they tweet this garbage is number one neither is a born again Christian and they hate Christians because they interfere with their one world plans more then any thing else. They are both socialists or communist one in the same government is their god !!!!
Now you see the real Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. These two, with 8 years of Barack Obama and then 8 years of Hillary Clinton, we would have witnessed the death of what the United States of America has been, is, and what it could have been. Thank God for President Donald Trump. Now you in Congress, get going on fixing things. First and foremost, try fixing all of the immigration and border security issues.
Bleeding-heart knee-jerk liberal politically-correct pantywaists contribute nothing.
The Jackass Party’s mascot is well-chosen:
It takes a carpenter to build a barn, but any jackass can kick it down.
Something that Progressive “Whites” who excuse or even support terrorism by Muslim factions is that they don’t grasp how those factions view them. Yes, their support, verbally or materially is welcomed, but in the end they are still seen as infidels and would suffer the same fate as any other “non-believer”. Never forget, even peaceful Islam is duty-bound by their Koran to convert, conquer and enslave or eliminate all non-believers by any and all means. During the Barbary War, Thomas Jefferson read a copy of a Koran in order to better understand the enemy and after an effort to negotiate with them made the following statement: “There is no end to the demand of these powers, nor any security in their promises.” Those words hold true to this day.
charles
those two are the worse kind of hypocrites there are in this country hope some day they will be punished for their actions
Look, unless you were just born yesterday, you KNOW that liberals are evil, anti-America ghouls. They hate you, they hate your freedoms and individual liberties, they hate your values, and most of all, they HATE the Lord. Hilary klinton and Hussein odumba are two of the most wretched creatures that have ever been foisted upon the United States of America. Hussein odumba is especially troubling, as he was groomed by the dnc to do exactly what he did, which was to become a political “rock star”, and fundamentally reshape America, our culture, and the way we view our history, culture, and where we are going. If you want to better understand this POS, read the Saul Alinsky book: “Rules for Radicals”. Pay special attention to the very beginning of the book where he dedicates the book. The dedication reads like this: “Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history… the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”
Dedicated to Lucifer…THIS is what we
re battling against, people who base their primary ideology on a book, written by an ultra-liberal goon, who dedicated his book to the devil. This is why the Holy Scriptures warn us that our battle isnt against flesh and blood. Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.It may sound over the top, but nevertheless, it`s true, that everytime you vote for good, everytime you take a stand against those who champion sexual perversion, against those who butcher infants in the womb, and now even outside the womb, everytime you stand up for timeless American traditions and values, when you Honor and reflect Christ, you are fighting against the very legions of hell.
It’s a shame in 2019 we have politicians that cannot praise God or say Christian without apologizing for the radicals on the left but that is why history will tell how devisive and evil they really are ?
I do not condemn all Muslims for the actions of a gang of fanatical killers, or all politicians for being uncaring, greedy and just plain disgusting. I do believe it is time for Christians and all believers, no matter what they call God , to pay attention to the evil that is seeping into not just America but Europe also. I have never understood why religious differences, racial differences or political differences cause such hatred or violence. We are all humans living on a small planet, susceptible to being wiped out any minute. Instead of working together to help hunger, environmental issues, diseases and being actual good stewards of this awesome planet, humans try their best to hasten mankind’s extinction. No matter how powerful, rich or bad you think you are, you are powerless and puny against germs and the power of Earth.
What unites the left and muslims is their shared hatred of all things Christian.
Obama is a Muslim and Clinton sells her soul to the highest “donor”. Christian morality and
beliefs conflict with the global elite.
I wonder what their motivation is. With Obama, it’s obvious due to his parentage and upbringing, but why would Hilary Clinton distain and reject her own heritage? Are the potential political gains so tempting she’s willing to sell her soul to the devil? What’s happening in our nation is more than troubling; it’s heartbreaking. We need to pray for our country like never before and stand up to those whose only values are based upon political expediency.
Both are despicable human beings, the very essence of narcissism.
I can’t believe that real AMERICANS support the left as much as they do.Leftists are liberals and socialists and are pushing to turn AMERICA into a socialist country.That is why they want to remove everyones weapons because they know that if socialism is imposed on the patriotic citizens of AMERICA they will incite a very intense civil disturbance.Socialism and the Islamic cult will never work in AMERICA,.If it did happen it would be the end of AMERICA and its new found prosperity,thanks to President Trump.
BC THE DOPES ARE ANTI RELIGION – ANTI AMERICAN – ANTI PEACE – ANTI EVERYTHING
Pray for them. They “make their own bed” One if the messages from the BVM to the young people at Medjugore said God will show everyone how he sees them. Can’t be too soon !!!
Both are hypocritical egregious individuals and both are anti-Christian anti- Semitic.
Points to exactly who they are and where they stand doesn’t it?
BILLARY and Odumba:
everything either said is a push to start a civil war? odumba and billary have no ideal that Easter was ALL about SALVATION. if a man of God never gives a sermon on
SALVATION how could he really be a man of God? there’s was and is a lot these civil rights preachers that never give a sermon on SALVALTON! Billary and Oduma are
spitting in the faces of Christians when opening their mouths and commenting. some of the looney lefts so called leaders care nothing about their followers! they only cared all money and how to become a MARTYR. how does a devilcrat get elected anyway? Why are white folks giving their country away? yes, one of those know nothings liberals will say the Injuns were here first? is that dummy saying that the Injun sprouted up out of the ground? that’s another lie taught to white children. TRUTH:
Lincoln, Grant and Mr. I hate the south Stewart left 180,000 black union solders to rule over the south and rape and murder 25,000 women and children mostly white! in sept of 1865 President Johnson sent white troops to his home in Greenville, Tennessee to remove a flock of these black union troops because they have turned his home into a WHORE house! out of these 180,000 black troops our government sent 50,000 of them to Arizona to finish off the Injuns!! Please don’t tell me that blacks killed Injuns along with whites?? The only good I find is these black union soldiers wrote lots of American Cowboy songs…
It is a fact that this family only votes conservative. So liberals of all stripes most likely will always be second fiddle to our family. MAGA
If either one of these losers, Odumer or Billery, sends up a prayer for anyone just listen closely. I think you will hear laughing coming from above. These two are what is wrong with politics and, well, plus a few thousand more of their close friends.
The Left & Democrats are truly manufactured with the same emotional and political socialistic parts. Their Chirstian-phobias can be interchanged from one person to the next with a precision fit. In the mid to late 1800s the introduction of interchangeable parts allowed for mass production of products. The socialist play book calls for the same approach only with the use of the same interchangeable political values, ideals, words, and concepts. Plug these into children’s’ minds and hearts using the government run schools and slanted news media then you can mass produce socialist with no mind to think with, no heart to feel with, and no spiritual values to love with. God SAVE us.
It is simple. There is a war on Christianity. Islam is the religion of satan and people who follow and defend it are doing satan’s work. I do not condone violence from any sect or group, but I will do what is needed to defend my country and religion from attack.
