Hahn Storms Out of Prayer Meeting -- Inappropriate

Rep. Janice Hahn
During her City Council Days
In 2004, LA Councilwoman Janice Hahn spoke at the final Billy Graham Crusade, hosted in the Pasadena Rose Bowl.

She shared about the struggles of her grandmother, who was raising two children on her own.

At one point, this grandmother became so distraught because of her financial straits, that she attempted suicide, and planned on killing her two children with her.

Fortunately, in her efforts to asphyxiate herself and her children, the gas from the stove gave out, and the woman and her two children survived.

One of the descendants from that grandmother -- Janice Hahn.

The story was heart-warming. I was impressed that a city official  was willing to attend the Crusade, and this final outreach was significant specifically because it was Rev. Billy Graham's last Crusade.

He also acknowledged that he was a Democrat, but in his native North Carolina, everyone was a Democrat because there was no Republican Party.

Then Councilwoman Hahn's presence at the crusade was a welcome gesture.

It's unfortunate that her class and character on display during the final Billy Graham crusade did not transfer over to her political career.

She ran a slash-and-burn campaign against Congressional candidate Craig Huey in 2011. She linked Huey to Sarah Palin, yet painted him as more extreme.

Such political pot-shots are inappropriate.

After her special election win, Hahn visited key parts of San Pedro in 2012, even though that section of the South Bay peninsula did not belong to her prior 36th Congressional District. That inspection of the breaking fault-lines along the San Pedro coastline was an ambitious political play to get our her name and vote for the next Congressional race.

Allegations against Hahn's campaign supporters in 2012 relate that she tarnished her Democratic opponent Laura Richardson as a Republican in key parts of the new 44th Congressional District.

Just awful.

Another report from a Culver City columnist indicate that she withheld key endorsements from the underdog Asia Brown running for Compton Mayor against the felon-on-appeal Omar Bradley.

And now Congresswoman Hahn's latest outburst against James Dobson, who called President Obama "the abortion President" has shown how abortive Rep. Hahn's politicking has become.

Just shameful.
Dr. James Dobson

While Dobson's presence at that National Day of Prayer is non-partisan, his statement about Obama as the "abortion President".

There is nothing wrong with calling out a President on policies which are destructive to human life. While Hahn and other liberal Congresswoman are demanding the rescue of 300 Nigerian girls, she is not championing the millions of unborn who are killed in inhumane and unsanitary abortions -- here in the United States.

Life is a serious issue, the first right from which all other rights descend.

And about the politicization of religious ceremonies. . .

Hahn spoke at the Billy Graham Crusade -- was that an inappropriate speech, too?

I recall black ministers criticizing George W. Bush during the funeral service of Coretta Scott King, and no called those statement inappropriate.

Rep. Maxine Waters delivered forums on the Affordable Care Act in two churches in her Congressional District. Was that inappropriate, too?

Democrats who had voted for Obamacare were assured that there would be not taxpayer funded abortions. Despite the empty gesture of an executive order to withhold taxpayer dollars from abortions, the reality has become otherwise (along with the rise of death panels, rationing, and the fact that men and women will not be able to keep their health insurance, their doctor, their plan, their hospital, etc)

Dr. Ben Carson faulted the Obama Administration's policies at the 2013 National Prayer Breakfast. Where was Janice Hahn to hammer the Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon?

For Hahn to point and indict Dr. Dobson for inappropriate remarks was in itself. .  .

Just inappropriate.
It's not polite(or appropriate) to point, Rep. Hahn!

  1. You do know that abortion is a medical procedure, right? You'd be well-advised to keep your ignorant nose out of women's health care.
