I am not sure this is appropriate in the current situation. Sorry.

Let us not forget that our American motto is e pluribus Unum – “out of many one.” It is not the converse – “many out of one.”

Well it is the converse according to Sir AlGore.

Of course virtually everything is the converse of reality to Sir AlGore.

Easter is about atonement and renewal.

Has Congress ever passed a resolution proclaiming that?

Coming next February:

A Congressional resolution that:

1- Recognizes the Christian faith as one of the great religions of the world.

2- Expresses friendship and support for Christians in the United States and worldwide.

3- Acknowledges the onset of Lent and Easter, the Christian holy season of fasting and spiritual renewal, and conveys its respect to Christians in the United States and throughout the world on this occasion.

4- Rejects hatred, bigotry, and violence directed against Christians, both in the United States and worldwide; and

5- Commends Christians in the United States and across the globe who have privately and publicly rejected interpretations and movements of Christianity that justify and encourage hatred, violence, and terror.

A political death cult with a 1400 year of bloodshed, confiscation, terror, and oppression is NOT “a great religion”.

Nor is their fake holy month of Ramadan worth a Congressional resolution.

Forty-one Republicans and one Democrat refused to approve the resolution and voted “present.”

So what we have, that we know for sure, is at least 42 closet sympathizers, without the cojones to even post a "yea" vote for something they probably thought was a good thing.

Congressman Mike Pence told the media, “I voted ‘present’ because I read somewhere that Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion.”

Now we know of at least one dumbass in this gaggle of fools, who, rather than vote his conscience and perhaps his convictions, simply posted a "present", and therefore took the safe way out.

We are surrounded by fools...the majority of them are occupying space in our Congress.

The “congratulatory remarks from CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations), MPAC (Muslim Public Affairs Council), and the State Department” (foggy bottom) for their efforts to undermine the greatest country on earth!

Now then they can get down to the business of crafting a resolution about Lent.

“HR 635 is but a piece of paper in the archives of the Congressional Record – as inappropriate as Congressional recognition of a religious holiday may be.”

This resolution sure came in under the wire, didn’t it? More evidence of the left working under the cover of darkness to erode the doctrines outlined by our Constitution. It is shocking that so many spineless Republicans signed onto this.

Congress has time to extol a false religion, while writing threatening letters to real Americans.

What a steaming pantload.
