Full title: Rep. Weber at U.S. Capitol: 'Father, We Have Trampled' on 'Holy Matrimony' and 'Called It an Alternative Lifestyle'
During a lengthy prayer event in Statuary Hall at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, House Representative Randy Weber (R-Texas) begged God to forgive lawmakers and judges for taking the Bible out of the classroom, for "trampling" on "holy matrimony" with same-sex "marriages," and for "killing the most innocent amongst us" and "calling it a choice."

Our little church’s call to worship since July 4 2015. It is also used by VP Pence as his benediction and was found marked in the Ronald Reagan bible he used to be sworn into office. God is good!

Read the comments on the video...I’m not even angry, I’m just perturbed by the arrogance, ignorance, hatred, shrillness, and filth that is seamlessly rolled together by so many leftists in response to a man exercising his 1st Amendment rights.

The source of the video is Right Wing Watch, a Leftist site. I posted the video only because it’s a more complete video than the one at the CNS site. Just consider the source and ignore the comments.

Randy was my state rep - and his employees kept my a/c running. Wish he was our Congressional Rep instead of Olson. Good Christian man with a wonderful family. Need more like him in D.C.

From the article:
“...Representative Weber offered his prayer, along with many other congressmen in turn, during the annual Jefferson Gathering at the Capitol. The event is held to allow members of Congress to gather and pray for the nation and her people. Some of the other members of Congress who participated this year included Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.), Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). ...”

Thanks. I saw the list in the article and noticed they are all Rs. Thus my question about Ds.
