Another reminder, as if we needed one, that it's not going to stop with Confederate generals. Or, for that matter, Virginians or slaveowners. Look at the history of the left around the world. And look at where they drew the line and stopped. The answer is nowhere. And so we have this insult, unthinkable in the pre-Obama era where the Dems at least feigned respect for America.
An historic Episcopal parish where George Washington frequently worshiped has decided to remove a memorial plaque honoring the nations first president, saying the decision was out of a desire to provide a welcoming worship space for all visitors. The church will also remove a similar memorial plague honoring Robert E. Lee, the commander of Confederate Army of Northern Virginia.

The fags have taken their protected species BS too far. Now they are out to get George Washington. I sure wish CWII would start. The fags, the commies and the snowflakes all need a good ass whoopin. It’s time to
start taxing the sh*t out of these fag churches who want to play in the political arena. IMHO.
Anyone who is “offended” by George Washington better stay the hell away from my house. I’ll make them “welcome” with a good old American boot in their America-hating ass.
This stupid church wont change my mind about Washingtons greatness.
If we expect everyone in the past to have made no mistakes and to ignore any great thing they ever did in lieu of those mistakes we wont have any statues or memorials left. In fact, the Left will make sure we wont have a history. Here Trump was more prescient than I was and way ahead of the curve.
Is this a black muslim marxist progressive church now?
The Episcopal “church” isn’t what it was in Washington’s time.
It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970.[3][4]
You are right, they can't remove the reason for it to be a National Historic Landmark.
Patriotic members of that congregation (if any) need to inform the pastor that they now feel unwelcome and will be going elsewhere.
[Somewhere in a little room Obama is laughing.]
Of course he is. I don’t know that he’s the Antichrist.
But he sure does a terrific impression.
Ping to thread for a few.
[I hate liberals. They are pathetic.]
They have to be insane to hang on to lies and twisted fake news like they do.
This is unamerican.
I weep...
Revolutionary War/George Washington list interest?
My immediate reaction was disgust because I thought it was Pohick, not Christchurch Alexandria. But, it’s just as well, that church doesn’t deserve any claim to fame via association with George Washington, it’s a pale, corrupt imitation of the church he knew.
Liberals are playing the altruistic human now, while engaging in evil at every opportunity.
He may be a trial run for all we know.
I think the enemy tests the waters every once in a while to see how ready the world is for him. Raises up someone who will fit the bill and waits to see if people fall for it.
Just speculation on my part but it would make sense to do that.
This must be the plaque that the church removed...
READ THE INSCRIPTION:
Following his family’s church tradition in England, when John Washington died, he left to the church a tablet of the Ten Commandments, on which he inscribed:
“Being heartily sorry from the bottome of my hart for my sins past, most humbly desiring forgiveness of the same from the Almighty God (my Saviour) and Redeemer, in whom and by the merits of Jesus Christ, I trust and believe assuredly to be saved, and to have full remission and forgiveness of all my sins.”

Another reason that Trump is President, these stupid bastards.
Check the Church vestry.
Washington began attending the church soon after it opened in 1773, and bought a pew there. He attended for more than 20 years, though he appeared more regularly at Pohick Church, southwest of his estate at Mount Vernon.
