The Democrat High Priestesses in White
2017-03-04
[American Thinker] There have been many interpretations concerning the mysterious bloc of women Democrats robed in white -- all the while pointedly ignoring President Trump’s speech to the joint session of Congress.

Some critics compared the ladies to devotees of the Ku Klux Klan. Photoshopped images of them wearing the pointed hoods of the KKK almost immediately appeared, as some recalled the Democrat Party’s commitment to the Klan, particularly in the 1920s.

The women themselves have said they were honoring the suffragettes of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries while indicating their ongoing commitment to women’s rights issues such as equal pay for equal work.

But not many conservatives believe the white wall of women was intended to be a merely symbolic gesture of solidarity with suffragettes.

Whatever each intended to convey by her choice of clothing, the entire the bloc of women in white was virtue signaling. That is one reason they chose white clothing.

The choice of white garments has long signified the sacred. Being dressed in white indicates being set apart, dedicated to sacred ideals, spiritually separated from the crowd as seeking to attain righteousness and purity. Whether Vestal virgins or, in the Christian tradition, the scared rituals of baptism and first communion, white is the garment of choice. It indicates purity of life and deeds which the rest of the world should seek to attain.

In the case of many, if not all of the feminists who sat on their hands and refused to stand as a gesture of support for Carryn Owens, widow of Navy SEAL Ryan Owens, the garments indicated they are the chosen priestesses of the pious Left, the defenders of the feminist faith.
A sacrifice can only be honored when they conduct the ritual ceremony.
To look at the bloc of white garbed Democrat women was to look at oracles of Delphi who have mystically discerned the most sacred right of women is the right to sacrifice their own offspring. To look at the high priestesses dedicated to the religion of radical feminism is to see leaders of a cult, the chief sacrament of which is abortion.

For nearly all leftist feminists, abortion is a holy rite, a religious ritual to be conducted in the cathedrals of Planned Parenthood and to be blessed by "faith leaders."
Abortion, yes the bottom line.
Yes, you read that correctly. Blessed.

High priests and priestesses inside and outside the Beltway have committed to "blessing" abortion both by law and by religious rituals.

#7  When secular leftist as Moses
Goes striking, as always, Red poses,
To bulldoze religion tradition
And raise his own vision,
His patsies are all Weisse Roses!

Go figure.

Baphomet must be satisfied with sacrifices.

#1  A Pythia (head mug) was chosen among the priestesses of the temple upon the death of the previous Pythia. The article presents a fairly accurate analogy, if one considers Senator Nancy Pelosi, who also wore a shabby looking white jacket.
