I seethe because he lives in a country in which some elected officials find it politically advantageous to deny him dignity, basic rights, and protections. I seethe because there are people who preach hatred and discrimination towards gays yet claim to be "good" and "loving" Christians. I seethe because there are groups who claim to be "advocates" for the family but who work to do great harm to any family that doesn’t fit their narrow template for “normal”.Seething Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13589584407018948285noreply@blogger.comBlogger1100125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24087625.post-32048070335936552542023-06-16T14:36:00.013-07:002023-06-22T07:23:34.745-07:00Dear Christian Evangelicals who voted for Trump & are STILL supporting him<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p> How can you justify your faith and still support Trump? He's a criminal. He's a sexual predator, He's a liar. He's a narcissist and cares for no one, not even his children, and even you! He's cruel. He's hateful. He has no conscience. He's an adulterer. He's a thief. He's a homophobe. He's a racist. He's an antisemite. He's a misogynist. He worships evil dictators and not God. He is a psychopath. And I could go on and on. </p><p>Tough to reconcile all these vile traits with your faith? Right? We can go on and on listing all of his sins, but it would make this post look like a book. By what I see, the MAGA crowd are still madly in love with this horrible man. Congratulations! You are a proud member of a cult. It's absolutely insane.</p><p>I am so very worried about you miserable folks. You have lost your mind. You thrive on being cruel. You have lost your empathy, if you even had it in the first place. And most of all, you have lost your soul. Think about Jesus who was the antithesis of Trump. Do you realize that you are damaging Christianity? Polls show that young people are choosing "NONE" when they are asked about their religion (<a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/341963/church-membership-falls-below-majority-first-time.aspx" target="_blank">proof</a>). You are damaging our country. And you are under the spell of Trump, who doesn't give a sh*t about you.</p><p>Here is an email that a Maga Evangelical sent to an extremely talented young man who is 20 years old on twitter. He is in a wheelchair and disfigured. He was born with a disease called Osteogenesis Imperfecta. He is smart as a whip & has a kind heart and a thick skin. I admire him.</p><p>Here is the email:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3jF0j6atg7tuqRFp0zv42nNbDx7yLUgqfUM43b5UrhzJ4xF91GP5VatI1ixgXpNYMMxabSdDUfoiqp8Yxb2IgVA0aU2ocIYPd2ueGGpzJwTvw3-zYaaBLGFPPUc_616CA2GgBB0MC16CvMHmpcr5ZmLSGymWe8yI8JiK7oV4eIwV5S_4_7A/s426/Email.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="426" data-original-width="422" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3jF0j6atg7tuqRFp0zv42nNbDx7yLUgqfUM43b5UrhzJ4xF91GP5VatI1ixgXpNYMMxabSdDUfoiqp8Yxb2IgVA0aU2ocIYPd2ueGGpzJwTvw3-zYaaBLGFPPUc_616CA2GgBB0MC16CvMHmpcr5ZmLSGymWe8yI8JiK7oV4eIwV5S_4_7A/s320/Email.jpg" width="317" /></a></div>This was devastating.

You don't want to wear a mask, but the policy of the store you are going to, requires you to wear one. What do you do? Go to a store that does not require you to wear a mask. We have been making Gays & Lesbians go somewhere else for decades. So shut the F up Buttercups and wear the damn mask. </div>

For the people who visit my blog, this video holds no revelations. The lgbtq community has been the punching bag for these evangelicals for decades. But I am posting this video because it is so cathartic. It strips down the facade of sanctimony and exposes their greed, cruelty, & hypocrisy. These evangelicals are fear-mongers who have abused and shamed and fought for draconian anti-gay laws as a way to appeal to the worst of the worst. And now they are supporting a thrice-married monster accused of sexual assault by over 20 women and put him in the White House. These evangelicals are shameless frauds. May they rot in hell for the pain and agony and deaths they have caused. It has been lucrative for them, but deadly for our lgbtq children, brothers, sisters, neighbors and friends.<br />

Ken and Melissa Ballard of Little Elm fought for their son during the Texas 85th Legislative Session. In the clip below Ken tells us their family's very personal and at times painful story. He admits in the video that it is not easy for him to speak so publicly to others about this subject, but he does a wonderful job, in spite of his discomfort. That is what unconditional love for a child does to you.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's just a damn shame that parents like Ken & Melissa are forced to go so public with their personal story. But with this Texas legislature full of so-called "small gubment" Republicans trying to legislate everything from who can use what bathroom to what women can & cannot do with their bodies (and a whole lot more), it forces people to come out and fight for what is right. . </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ken and Melissa Ballard have more courage in the tips of their pinkies than the whole lot of these disgusting god-botherer legislators put together. It's a damn shame these shitty law-makers will never learn that messing with anyone's child, is a losing prospect. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Way to stand up for your son Ken & Melissa!<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
I can’t help but notice the overwhelming presence of <a href="https://twitter.com/flakeforsenate?lang=en" target="_blank">your ads on Twitter</a> lately:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<ul style="text-align: left;">

</ul>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You scared Senator?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know you are up for re-election in 2018 and it is going to be a tough race. I wish I could feel sorry for you. I really believed you to be a principled man. And I liked you, even though I am not a Republican and I am definitely NOT a conservative. But that was <i>before </i>Donald J. Trump was elected President.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You definitely talked the right kind of talk when Donald J. Trump was running as a candidate for President of this great country. In fact you were just as horrified as I was at the thought of a man like him becoming our 45th President and I really admired you for that. You did not hold back. I took great comfort in your words. I truly thought you’d stand your ground and act as a buffer to this president. I was SO wrong.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
<div>
What happened Senator?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
As soon as this horrible, unstable, carnival-barking, buffoon became President you fell in line. You voted in support of just about everything this horrible man wanted. You remained silent and did not push back, no matter what kind of vile, racist, dog-whistle garbage he spewed. You caved Senator. You put your party and self-preservation over your country. You became one with the lowest of the low in your base. You lost your voice and with it any respect so many had for you. You abandoned everything you believed in. And now you are seeing the writing on the wall.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
So out come all these lying ads and your new book with a title that is stolen from another Arizona Conservative of a bygone era, Senator Barry Goldwater (The Conscience of a Conservative by Barry Goldwater). Your book, Senator Flake, Conscience of a Conservative: A Rejection of Destructive Politics and a Return to Principle, is a lie. You rejected NOTHING. If the President wanted it or said it, no matter how unconservative, no matter how despicable, you fell in line and either voted for it or remained silent.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
You and your book and your ads are a fraud.</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You did not reject the destructive, racist politics of this president nor did you stick to your own principles. Instead you straddled a fine line trying to piss off no one. And now you will most likely be facing a primary opponent from your angry right-wing base and a solid <b>NO</b> vote from those who admired you when you spoke your mind when Trump was campaigning. So you screwed yourself with basically everyone, Senator. You pleased no one. You would have been a whole lot better off if you had picked your poison and stuck to one side or the other.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
I get it Senator Flake, you are and always have been between a rock and a hard place, which is why you are probably going to lose. It is a no-win situation, so you should have just stuck with your principled stand when Trump was a candidate. At least you would have gone down with a clean conscience and the ability to sleep at night.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
Your new book probably won’t save you. Your gushing twitter ads won't save you either. But there might be a way to save what's left of your legacy if you go back 43 years in history, study it, and repeat it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
How do you do that?</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

On August 7th, 1974 U.S. Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., U.S. House Minority Leader John Rhodes, R-Ariz., and U.S. Senate Minority Leader Hugh Scott, R-Pa., made it clear to the embattled Nixon that he faced all-but-certain impeachment, conviction and removal from office in connection with the Watergate scandal. Nixon resigned at noon on August 9th.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Trump probably won't resign, but at least you will give your Arizona constituents many more years of bragging rights for having yet another Senator with real cajones, real courage, and a real love for his country. You won’t be a hero to everyone, at least not right away, but your legacy and the legendary political lore that goes along with it will live on forever.<br />
<br />
It's not re-election, but something better: a total restoration of your soul.</div>

Still in complete disbelief that we will soon have an unstable, pussy-grabbing, treasonous narcissist as our next president. This man is not fit to be a dog catcher much less the President of the United States. I'm so terrified of what he will do to our country that I am actually praying that someone will come forward with video proof of his Russian golden showers adventure, but alas, I don't think anything will bring down this horrible man. It is depressing as hell that there are so many people supporting him.</div>

All I can say is, for me, it will be kinda fun to watch all of those sanctimonious frauds who call themselves Christians, but vociferously endorsed this thrice-married, admitted adulterer and sexual predator who cheats, lies, and steals. Lord knows how many scandals we will have to endure before he finally crashes and burns, but to all you hypocrites who supported him and voted for him (and you know who you are), good luck with justifying what you did. We will remember who you are.</div>

Sucker. Ignore what he says, but pay attention to who he appoints.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div>
I hate to do this to you, but we have to be fully prepared to stop trump in his tracks. We have 4 years of this man. And that means we cannot bask in the glory of any of our past victories, we need to fight tooth and nail to protect them. So find your bottle of Tums (you'll need them) and check out Matt's latest clip. It will give you a good idea of what we are up against.</div>

Yes, I have been ignoring this blog for quite some time, and it is taking every last ounce of energy I have to post something right now. And no, I cannot take credit for the title of this post, that goes to Tess Rafferty and the clip included below. </div>
<br />
I am so horrified, distraught, and filled with seething rage, I can barely string more than a few words together and make some sense. This election has left me in such despair that I can barely function. So I will not post much past this paragraph, but I will rely on two amazing women and one amazing man who have done a good job expressing what I cannot right now.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.balloon-juice.com/2016/11/09/first-things-first/" target="_blank">This first is a post</a> by Betty Cracker. She wrote it at 4:45am the morning after the election. I imagine she was fueled by the same rage, despair, and lack of sleep most of us felt that tragic day after. But her rant is epic and pretty much captured everything I think many people were feeling that morning as well. Here is a taste (but please go read the whole thing):<br />
<blockquote>
<i>First, a hearty FUCK YOU to every single person who voted for Trump, all 57,518,551 or so of you. Even if you don’t consider yourselves stone-cold racist, misogynist pricks like the president-elect, you’re as bad as he is. If you were stupid enough to believe that your vote “sent a message,” you’re right: By voting for that degenerate demagogue, you’ve displayed such depraved indifference to the fate of women, immigrants, people of color, people with disabilities, etc., that you’re now an honorary member of the Klan. So, put that fucking hood on, asshole.</i></blockquote>
<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/23/opinion/no-trump-we-cant-just-get-along.html?smid=fb-share&_r=1" target="_blank">The second is a NY Times Op-Ed</a> by Charles Blow. It too captures the intense emotions so many of us feel about this monster, donald trump, and the fact that he is going to be the next President of the United States. I am posting two snippets, but please go read the entire article:<br />

<br />
Islam has been under huge scrutiny lately and is often criticised for being an aggressive religion... but what about Christianity? In this video they disguised a Bible as a Quran and read some of it's most gruesome verses to different people on the street. Listen to what they had to say.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4b4xVmJ0Kpo/Vj0s47pPUsI/AAAAAAAAJnE/wYqNZIcCbZ8/s1600/vitter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4b4xVmJ0Kpo/Vj0s47pPUsI/AAAAAAAAJnE/wYqNZIcCbZ8/s1600/vitter.jpg" /></a></div>
For long-time readers of this blog, my glee at seeing David Vitter smacked hard in the campaign ad below will come as no surprise. I have blogged about Mr. Vitter many, many times (previous posts listed below). For me this man goes down in my book as an especially vile, disgusting hypocrite. But for those of you who are not familiar with my obsession with this putrid man and his history, let me briefly fill you in.<br />
<br />
Back in 2003, then president, George W. Bush, was running for a second term on a platform that included a gay marriage ban, which was cosponsored by Senator David Vitter. This bill would have amended the U.S. Constitution and denied millions of law-abiding, tax-paying gay and lesbian Americans from getting married to the person they love. And Vitter was <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d110:SJ00043:@@@P">one of the 10 original sponsors of this nasty Federal Marriage Amendment</a>. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/02/24/elec04.prez.bush.marriage/" target="_blank">This was nothing more than a blatant and callous political strategy to whip up their far-right religious base into a frothy frenzy</a> pretty much guaranteeing a good turn out at the polls and four more years of George W. Bush and his disastrous policies.<br />
<br />
Now I know you are thinking to yourselves that this is nothing new for Republican politicians and you'd be right. But ... this is David Vitter we are talking about. When he was not waxing on about the "Sanctity of Marriage", he was bloviating ad nauseam about "Family Values", all while he was f<a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/senator-caught-in-dc-madam-scandal/" target="_blank">requenting the DC Madam's prostitution service</a> and <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/11/AR2007071100116.html" target="_blank">the high-priced Canal Street brothel back in his home town</a>. And it also came out that sex with prostitutes was not enough for Mr. Sanctimonious, <a href="http://wonkette.com/277270/diaperman-david-vitter-likes-his-diapers" target="_blank">he also like his home-town girls to make him wear diapers</a> while doing the dirty deed. And if all of this is not enough, now there are rumors that Senator Sanctimonious <a href="http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2015/10/david-vitter-louisiana-governors-race-lovechild-allegation" target="_blank">may have fathered a love-child with one of his hometown prostitutes</a> - not confirmed yet, but hey, where there's smoke there's fire.<br />
<br />
So now on to the ad. It is short, it is brutal, and as John Cole noted on his blog, <a href="http://www.balloon-juice.com/2015/11/06/party-pooper/" target="_blank">John Bel Edwards just opened a can of whoop-ass on Diaper Dave Vitter</a>:<br />
