7. Hatch helps/honors/praises Moon
Moon brags that congress didn't know what it was doing when they passed our national holiday honoring Moon. The word "True" was left off the final "Parent's Day" bill, so that is likley for most of those who supported or signed it into law. However, after it was passed, Hatch brought Mr. and Mrs. Messiah down to Capitol Hill so Mrs. True Momma could explain to the congresscritters that Moon is here to save the earth.

World Convention of the Federation of Island Nations for World Peace

June 17, 1996 Tokyo, Japan

On July 28, 1993, Mrs. Moon, who is a great partner for peace with Rev. Moon, made an historic speech on Capitol Hill before U.S. senators and congressmen on the topic of family values. Sen. Orrin Hatch introduced Mrs. Moon. It was a landmark speech on family issues. The U.S. Congress was so moved and inspired by her speech, as well as her initiative as President of the Women's Federation for World Peace, that both houses passed unanimously and enacted the "Parent's Day Resolution." President Clinton signed into law and declared July 28th every year as "Parent's Day" in the United States.

(note: actually the holiday is the fourth Sunday of July)

The following article by Lisa Gray appeared in the
Washington City Paper, Vol. 15, No. 36, September 8-14, 1995:

snip

On July 27, Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss.) took the floor of the Senate to urge his fellow lawmakers to support "True Parents' Day," to be celebrated the following evening by the Women's Federation for World Peace, which is funded in large part by the Unification church. According to the Congressional Record, Lott pontificated that "the breakdown of the family is a major factor contributing to the rise of crime, teen pregnancy, educational decline, substance abuse and suicide among our nation's youth" and that "parents, by their example of sacrificial love and transmission of moral and cultural values, play a crucial and determinant role in the development of youth." But he didn't mention that the holiday had been long celebrated by Unificationists, or that Hak Ja Han Moon had founded the Women's Federation and still serves as its international president. The following evening, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) introduced Mrs. Moon to an audience of approximately 200 gathered in a Senate meeting room at the Dirksen Office Building. The Rev. Moon himself sat in the front row.

The Washington Times reported the palest possible version of Mrs. Moon's speech. It quoted her briefly decrying the increase in divorces and neglected children and mentioned the conservative luminaries in the audience, suggesting that Unification Church's views on family matters had made the Church some important friends on Capitol Hill. The Times didn't quote Mrs. Moon's declaration that she and her husband are the True Parents of mankind, destined to finish what Jesus couldn't.

The Unification News offered a much richer account of the event. Hatch "extolled the long suffering and personal sacrifice of Mrs. Moon and her husband," the News reported, "and he particularly commended the couple for their investment in the Washington Times, a vehicle that he said has been a benefit to the nation's capital. Senator Hatch, in his warm introductory remarks, referred more than once to Mrs. Moon as 'my friend'." The News then detailed Mrs. Moon's speech in its full theological glory -- and vividly described listeners' reactions. "As Mrs. Moon began speaking, the audience became hushed and respectful as they settled into their plush leather chairs. Many congressmen were visibly moved, and some even wiped away a tear as she described the suffering she and her husband had endured in their lives for the sake of accomplishing the will of God."

___________


here Hatch meets with Moon and a young George and Pickles Bush. heh


Please note, the Washington Times is a propaganda paper designed to drive our nation right while Moon pumped up the theocrats within the conservative movement for power - and the nation closer to theocracy. The Washington Times is a snake that bit the nation 23 years ago and the venom is still flowing into our body politic.
