I think she referred to "The Golden Rule" which is contained in Luke 6:31
which one did she use?....Do unto others but deny, deny, deny?
no...the other one.
What is not at all surprising is how NONE if them cited any Verse - the question was:
"What is your favorite Bible verse?"
Senator Barack Obama: “The Sermon on the Mount, because it expresses a basic principle that I think we’ve lost over the last six years.”
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton: “The Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. I think that’s a good rule for politics, too.”
Mike Gravel: “The most important thing in life is love. That’s what empowers courage and courage implements the rest of our virtues.”
Representative Dennis Kucinich: “Prayer from St. Francis, which says, ‘Lord make me an instrument of your peace.’ ”
John Edwards: “What you do unto the least of those, you do unto me.”
New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson: “The Sermon on the Mount, because I believe it’s an issue of social justice, equality, brotherly issues reflecting a nation that is deeply torn and needs to heal and come together.”
Senator Christopher J. Dodd: “The Good Samaritan would be a worthwhile sort of description of who we all ought to be in life.”
Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr.: “Christ’s warning of the Pharisees. There are many Pharisees, and it’s part of what has bankrupted some people’s view about religion. And I worry about the Pharisees.”

cp.... the golden rule IS a bible verse. Luke 6:31
don't just cut and paste from some blog..
what a crock. the term "The Beatitudes" is UNIVERSALLY known to refer to Matt 5:3-12.
and of course, the real issue is that you would give her shit, not because she answered the question wrong, but because of who she is. I find it incomprehensible to imagine you spouting off on Rudy or Fred or Mitt of John referring to the common name for some scriptural passage rather than book/chapter/verse.

ah... my little yappy pet dog.
good to see you again!
You did know, did you not, that imitation is the highest form of flattery?
I am touched by your attention to me.... but it is starting to seem like a man crush...and that is kinda creepy.
