Speaking truth to power is a dangerous bidness.... hope her health ins is paid up.

I mean, Trump just released several hundred of his violent criminal supporters who might just take an interest in returning his favor.

Republicans are furious about a REAL christian mentioning christ's teachings to the antichrist.

Pray tell what is it with the DNA and commonality of homely women and politics? Fox News has beautiful women, while The View and MSNBC has well you can complete the thought.

Shallow-minded misogynist, thy name is Robson.

Where was this Bishop's plea for mercy when hundreds of women were dying in hospital parking lots for lack of medical care from miscarriages or suspected abortions?

Where was her mercy whey hundreds of women died because doctors were threatened with prosecution and the loss of their license if they treated a post-abortion woman to save her life?

How many women died because doctors were not allowed to give life-saving treatment if it meant ending a pregnancy?

These evangelicals supported a maniacal tyrant, Trump, in the election and they got what they wanted.

Now they can just STFU.

Robson blew his wad a long time ago and it was anti-climactic.

#8 | Posted by Twinpac at 2025-01-23 03:36 PM

She's an Episcopal Bishop, Twin, hardly an evangel. I'm pretty sure she was on top of all those issues.

btw, Episcopals in the US are Anglicans in England, and Anglicans in the US are called Episcopal in England.

It was tragic, really.... that wad produced Visitor.

It was a boon for psychological research, though.

Why do you guys feed the right wing trolls? They thrive on your replies. Plonk and ignore them and they might just leave.

You will never convince them of anything. You'd have a better chance of talking a wall into painting itself.

Were the hot girls in your school the smartest ones?

Ugly people have to make their way in the world by developing skills and their brains. That's why fox is full of attractive morons.

But your brain is as stupid as trump's and you think if someone is attractive then you should listen to them.

@#16 ... She looks like Squidward's mom who hooked up with JPW at the Flying-J. ...

So... admitting your current alias is going by looks, and not what she said?

@#13 ... Why do you guys feed the right wing trolls? ...

Because they currently occupy the Oval Office?

"I don't feel there is a need to apologize for a request for mercy. And I don't feel that there is a need to apologize to speak to the unity of this country that includes people that were not at all referenced in the unity that he spoke of the day before in his inaugural address. So, no, I don't feel the need to apologize."

But this bishop did none of that, did she ROBSON?

Liars go to Hell, ROBSON.

I wonder how much different that would be from your everyday life?

No MAGA could posibly like this woman.

She's a Christian.

Trumpers would be terrified at the consequences of standing up to Dear Leader.

Which is why they constantly kowtow to him instead.

2 Timothy 3:1-9
New International Version
3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God" 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.

6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. 8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9 But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.

- "their folly will be clear to everyone."

Everyone but Trumpers, apparently.

"Oh yeah well you're ugly!" I haven't heard debate this convincing since 4th grade.

#30 | Posted by SpeakSoftly at 2025-01-24 01:33 PM

Why is Trump even upset?

She aked for mercy on these people.......a king usually loves when the common person begs.

Seems right up Trump's alley.
