Does the Lamestream Media Ever Ask Hillary About Her Favorite Bible Verse?
—By Kevin Drum | Sat Aug. 29, 2015 12:37 PM EDT


Huh. I almost forgot about the Palin-Trump lollapalooza. But it's all on YouTube, and it was pretty boring. Palin's word salad was subpar and it was just the same-old-same-old from Trump. My favorite part was this bit from Palin:

So you get hit with these gotchas, like most conservatives do. For instance, asking what's your favorite Bible verse. And I listen to that going, what? Do they ask Hillary that?

Indeed they do! On August 27, 2007, in a nationally televised debate, Tim Russert asked every Democrat on the stage to share their favorite Bible verse:



What's your favorite Bible verse?
I'd recommend Mark 12:38
"Beware of the scribes."

1. Wow - good find

I didn't even remember that. I heard that interview was nothing but the two of them patting each other on the back and whining.

2. The real question is, will they ask Bernie?

They are pretty clueless, you know.

3. It's definitely a stupid and irrelevant question, so they probably will

4. So Russert ASSuME everyone should believe in god and the bible, and by that question, he is implying

that "should be a requirement for being president"

I don't like to say anything ill about the dead, but Tim Russert was always an ass

6. Completely agree

The suggestion was clear and I'd be shocked if it wasn't a question planted by Republicans.

9. no doubt.

5. But what's their favorite recipe from The Joy of Cooking?

Or their favorite Chapter of To Kill A Mockingbird?

Or any other question about their favorite book?


IT'S JUST A BOOK!!!!

8. My own favorite is

"The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets", followed closely by "The horseleech hath two daughters crying give, give". Both from Proverbs.
