She's not being attacked for the crimes of her son, though. She's being criticized as a hypocrite.

And I was always wondering how come Republicans are perceiving themselves as devout Christians while the political party they support is openly opposing those virtues and if this doesn’t make them hypocrites?

That's exactly what it makes them. By the Biblical definition of a hypocrite. Jesus literally talks about what that means.

"A faction emerged within the (Republican) party characterized by hate and divisiveness, overshadowing the principles the party once held dear," Osborn said in a statement. "We should rise above spewing hate and legislating condemnation for every citizen who does not look like us, vote like us worship like us or identify or love like us."

Oh, bullshit. That's exactly who and what you are. That's why you joined the party. That's why you haven't left it. You're not fooling anyone.

Well, what does the lease actually say? If it says the discounts were temporary marketing gimmicks, then that's what they are. If it doesn't say that, then that's what they are not.

That's enough money to fund a rogue nuclear weapons program. So, I hereby start the rumor that reddit is developing weapons of mass destruction.

You need to work on your rhetorical skills.

It's closer to a job offer. Resigning would be a personal rather than an official act.

The bill lists specific actions that fall under the proposed definition: abuse against children that includes animal torture, bestiality or cannibalism, or forcing a child to ingest urine or feces, enter a coffin or grave containing a corpse, or take drugs as part of the ritual.

Wouldn't this include celebrating communion?

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas., laughed at the suggestion, writing on social media Tuesday “why not $500 per hour?”

Assuming he actually worked 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year, Senator Cruz's pay rate, as set by federal law, amounts to around $87 per hour. We know that he doesn't actually do that much work, so it's actually going to be much higher.

Aren't you talking about WW2?

Griffin then faulted Democrats for turning his bill into a “circus,” saying he supports exceptions for the life of the mother but was never afforded a chance to amend the legislation to reflect that.

Either you oppose the provisions you wrote into your own bill, or your don't. Can't have it both ways, Grif.
