They made common cause with evil people and evil policies.

You’re being too charitable, Mac. That implies ignorance and/or stupidity which are not evil.

I call it ‘hubris’ and ‘hypocrisy.”

Their hate for Trump outweighed their (fake) concern for “Life” and their poorly-formed consciences.

“Evil is as evil does.”

I’ll wager pretty much every congregation is living through a decadent age. Perhaps the Eastern churches, the rigorist Presbyterian and Lutheran bodies, and some of the Mennonite-Amish bodies are in satisfactory condition. Most clergymen would be doing a better job if they said almost nothing.

You will know who you are by your friends.

Sorry, guys. You chose your powerful friend – your reasons are between you and God. Now reap the rewards.

“If this is not done it will raise the question of whether or not we are still welcome in the Democratic Party.”

I’m sure the dems are shaking in their boots. Especially since the “pro-life evangelicals for Biden” didn’t phrase this as a deal-breaker, but more as “maybe we won’t stay with you (though we probably still will).”

And it’s even more difficult to believe that those who profess to be faithful Catholics have voted for Biden and Democrats. But it is a fact.

First semester Hope College, poli sci class 1987. We each had to choose a Member of Congress, research him (her??), get on a committee and make political deals with other students, who were also pretending to be their chosen member.
.
I believe I was Pete Wilson from California. My partner was a Democrat, but I cannot remember who or from where. We researched a topic, came to a compromise, and were all set to present to the class. My partner did a 180 during his part of the presentation–he was first to speak, leaving me standing before class needing to say something. I am not verbally fast on my feet, but somehow I did manage to sputter something, enough to satisfy our prof. As I recall, we got good marks on our project.
.
I have never trusted a Democrat since.

Ron Sider’s still in there taking the slings and arrows I see.

Does anyone know the originating source for this? I’ve been trying to track it down, but it seems to be original to the Breaking 911 tweet. There seem to a few issues: 1. The title of the act seems wrong; shouldn’t it be the “American Rescue Plan Act?” 2. There’s a typo in the first paragraph. 3. The only source (that I can find) seems to be this tweet. 4. It also doesn’t seem to be posted anywhere else in non-3rd-party tweet form (like the website of pro-life evangelicals for biden), which seems odd for an open letter.

All in all it makes the sentiments expressed feel a little too convenient and thus it feels kind of fishy to me.

Did they really think Bidn had any say in this? He moves his move and his hands, depending on which string is pulled.
I simply cannot believe that Americans voted for this idiot/puppet. I know a good number of Americans, and they are not stupid.
Ohoh – wait a minute – maybe the Americans I know are not Democrats.

I’m with T Shaw on this one. They knew they were dealing with the evil party of baby-slaughter, sloth-pandering, gender bending, eco-worship, and racism against whites, not to mention distain for Christianity. Leftists use “we care, so aren’t we special” pride as their weapon, and wearing a halo is hard to resist…

This has been their MO since at least Obamacare, probably before then. Stamp their feet and make a big deal in the media about opposing the bill. If they are given any sort of compromise, even a meaningless one, they immediately cave. But even if they aren’t they’ll end up voting for the bill when push comes to shove.

The only purpose of any of it is to keep their support from various “new pro-life” groups (though even the leaders of those groups usually do not oppose abortion; it’s a shell game for the suckers at the very bottom).
