God Has Painted You a Marvelous Virgin!

With Catholics getting worked up about the President of the United States speaking at Notre Dame–and why wouldn’t they? He’s practically an abortionist–I have a feeling that this story may fan the flames just slightly. Or at least make the heathens giggle (like me).

“You have a marvelous virgin!” said Hillary Clinton to Mexicans gathered at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, where she left flowers and stood around looking uncomfortable (just guessing). She was referring to a painting of the fabulous virgin Mary, who never had sex but somehow conceived miraculously. Marvelously.

(Sidenote: what a story this is. Genius! How can we come up with a way to invent a messiah and leave the fucking out of it? Brilliant.)

This would be the funniest part of the story if not for Clinton’s earlier question regarding the apparently famous painting. Who painted it, she wanted to know, presumably expecting an answer grounded in reality or at least in oil-based paints.

“God!”

Th-th-that’s all, folks!
