"What do you think about Sam Brownback being named as Trump's Ambassador At Large For Religious Freedom?"
Well, first Mike Pence, then Sam Brownback and, if little Jared blackballing him for putting his biological daddy in jail ends, Chris Christie..... it looks like the Trump regime is the country-club prison for disastrously failed and massively unpopular Republican governors. I remember reading how Republicans in Indiana were so glad to get rid of Pence and it's pretty obvious that after trashing Kansas over his insane religious faith in supply side economics that even the Republicans have repudiated the idiocy of Brownback. They seem to be following Trump up in a final vindication of the Peter Principle where such people rise to their highest level of incompetence.
As for Brownback being an alleged Christian, a Catholic, no less, there is no way to intuit the teachings of Jesus or Paul or even the Catechism of John Paul II from the actions of Sam Brownback, the guy is a fraud of the kind I have always advocated calling out. Jesus gave the test of someone who was sincere in their profession of faith, by their fruits you will know them. Brownback yields a bitter harvest of injustice, inequality, cruelty and smug self-righteousness. He's about as credible as Jim Bakker and the rest of the phony TV huckster hallelujah peddlers. He's about as Christian as Donald Trump.
Brownback and Pence: NO TRUE CHRISTIANS. ©.
ReplyDeleteHow convEEEEEEEEEnient, as the Church Lady used to say.
I also agree with Charlie Pierce: do we have an Ambassador of Free Speech?
ReplyDeleteHow about of Freedom of Assembly? Freedom to Petition the Government for Redress of Grievances? Ambassador of Due Process and Equal Protection Under the Law?
The post itself is ludicrous and inappropriate. I suppose it spares Kansas anymore of Brownback, so there's that to be said for it; but no more than that.
Sorry, you don't get to decide who A True Christian© is.
ReplyDeleteIt would be like me saying Bibi Netanyahu isn't a True Jew%copy;.
I'm stuck with him and you're stuck with Trump and the rest of those Xtian shitheads like Brownback.
