Hillary Asks "Who Painted" Miraculous Lady of Guadalupe On John Diego's Cloak

Who?

I missed this a few days ago. But this is just too stupid for words:

During her recent visit to Mexico, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made an unexpected stop at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe and left a bouquet of white flowers "on behalf of the American people," after asking who painted the famous image. The image of Our Lady of Guadalupe was miraculously imprinted by Mary on the tilma, or cloak, of St. Juan Diego in 1531. The image has numerous unexplainable phenomena, such as the appearance on Mary's eyes of those present in the room when the tilma was opened and the image's lack of decay... After observing it for a while, Mrs. Clinton asked "who painted it?" to which Msgr. Monroy responded "God!"

"Smart power" in all its sophisticated glory. But at least we got rid of the inexperienced, bumbling, and just plain dumb Republicans.

Hey, remember the time when Hillary was confirmed on a 94-2 Senate vote and the left laughed at Republicans for not opposing her more vociferously? A genuine barrel of mirth she's turning out to be, huh?
