Cleverest Remark on DNC and Clinton

September 6, 2012
 By Elizabeth Scalia

Yesterday, the DNC had to pretend it had a 2/3 vote to assert that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel and for the inclusion of the phrase, “God-given gifts” into their national platform, because three attempts to vote couldn’t bring it. Whether it was the “God” language or the “Jerusalem” language they resisted more is hard to say. But the the nays seem to have it it.

And then, of course,  the mob boo’ed, jeered and hissed.

Later, Bill Clinton came out and did what Bill Clinton does better than almost anyone.

This morning, appeared on my Facebook wall the cleverest remark about it all:

“So, after they denied God three times, the cock crowed; what next?”

Well, what comes next is an ending and a beginning, as we all know.

What? In 2008, the Democrats loved this biblical/messianic stuff. Some still do!

It’s a clever remark, and I admit I laughed — the DNC got all biblical and they didn’t even know it!

But don’t get too cocky. After all, Peter may have made three denials, but he still ended up with the keys.
