Sick and tired of Republicans who co-opt faith as an excuse to advance bigotry and barbarism.

Fact is, if today Christ himself came to the floor of Congress and repeated his teachings, many would malign him as a radical and eject him from the chamber.

1. Right on!

2. Wise words. We need someone to come in and upset the money changing tables that ...

the republicans have set up for their donors (and no one else) and instead, render aid to everyday Americans.

I'm sick and tired of hearing republicans support w/o any rational thought the pork that billionaires and other wealthy patrons have been enjoying under trump, as well as the ignorance of laws and regulations that trump has been canceling it seems, right and left.

When Bloomberg was interviewed recently, and the interviewer mentioned to Bloomberg that doesn't it seem unseemly for two billionaires to be arguing w/ each other via emails? Bloomberg said 'what other billionaire?'.

I suspect Bloomberg knows what he's talking about too.

3. I Agree Completely, Ma'am

Nor do I think many of these 'whited sepulchres' have anything remotely approaching faith in any deity above themselves.


"It is strange an omnipotent God should require the assistance of state legislatures."


"Prayer for most people is their way of informing God His plan for them is not only wrong, but shockingly cheap."

4. Political Christians rather than Christians of faith.

6. I'm tired of people saying "faith" when they mean "babbling, superstitious, magical thinking". nt
