Pete Buttigieg's knee-jerk compulsion to scold Christians pops up again at second debate
American Thinker ^ | 06/28/2019 | Monica Showalter

If you ask me to pick a winner at the Democratic debate on night two in Miami, I would have said Pete Buttigieg.  He came off as reasonable, clear-thinking, pithy, and pleasant.  He respected time limits.  I didn't agree with him on anything, but he gave a sense of coming from rational grounding.  Maybe his leftie ideas could be tempered with real-world realities.  Maybe he could be persuaded...

But then, then, then, then...he couldn't stop himself.  The transcript:

We have to talk about one other thing, the Republican Party likes to cloak itself in the language of religion. Now, our party doesn't talk about that as much, largely for a very good reason, which was we are committed to the separation of church and state. We stand for people of any religion and no religion. But we should call out hypocrisy, for a party that associates itself with Christianity."

Buttigieg whipped out for about the umpteenth time his unsolicited opinion about just how un-Christian all those inadequate, wicked, dare-I-say sinful Christians out there really are, hooking his argument up to the border surge issue.  Gotcha.  Bad Christians.  Not like good-Christian me, that paragon of all virtue-signals.

It was about as attractive as a fart in church.

Here's the video of him coming out with his Inner Scold at no one's request:

What's interesting is that most of the rabid left, whose Democratic Party he identifies with, prefer to launch attacks on Christianity itself.  They hate Christianity, not to mention the idea of God.  It's obvious in their court cases challenging this cross or that manger scene in public space, prayer in public schools, crosses at military cemeteries, etc.  Democrats themselves have booed God at one of their recent party conventions.  President Obama rarely ever went to church services, and his references to faith in speeches always threw in the non-faith of atheists into his mix,

I’m uninterested in hearing what the hell-bound Peter Butt has to say about anything, but especially about Christianity...

Mayor Buttyfaggie is merely echoing the Spirit of the Age leading up to the End Times.

“Buttgig is a mentally ill person who does a good job of hiding his mental illness. He almost seems like a normal guy.”

He reminds me A LOT of Ted Bundy.

That is if Ted Bundy also had Butty’s particular perversion along with the ones he already pssossed.

Buttboy has more to fear from Islam than Christianity. When is he going to pick on the Mohammedans? Oh, wait, they have been declared a protected class by Western liberals.

This posting by FR’s says it best and when printed up makes a good bumper sticker or poster;
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3749188/posts/#40
it reads CELEBRATE PERVERSITY each word is against a rainbow background. I suggest adding VOTE PERVOCRAT when you print it up and place that below the two words.celebrate, perversity.

I don’t know any Christians who think they are perfect.

You are not called to be perfect, we all know it’s not possible.

That doesn’t mean advocating a life trying to avoid sins and temptations is wrong, or that because those advocating doing so to others are hypocrites because they aren’t perfect beings.

That has never been the standard.

If that is the standard Petey Pecker is using everyone fails because no one even follows their own rules 100% of the timeall the time, perfectly. So then by his own standard hes also a hypocrite and everyone else he knows that are non-religious.

I read that he is an Episcopalian. Malta is a very Catholic country so he may have been a Catholic earlier.

Along with ‘Spartacus’, Mayor Pete has lowered the bar by having accepted a scholarship initiated by the renowned Racist, Cecil Rhode. Surely, the Mayor knew of Rhodes’ racist views, all of which are well documented. Could it be said that anyone accepting a Rhodes Scholarship is a racist?

Liberals are appropriating Christianity only enough to shut down the opposition by citing Christ. Their end goal is destruction of the competing world-view.

Pete Buttgiggle looks like Jerry Mathers from Leave out the Beaver.

Buttgig is a mentally ill person who does a good job of hiding his mental illness. He almost seems like a normal guy.

The name Buttigieg appears to be of Germanic derivation. In German, the word Geiger means Fiddler.

Therefore, he comes from a family named for it's characteristic of fiddling with people's butts.

I doubt very much whether or not he'll be re-elected mayor, much less President. If his idea was to present himself as a Vice-presidential offering, I'd say he hasn't offered very much.

re: “but he gave a sense of coming from rational grounding.”

It’s an act; psychopaths can seem remarkably composed, but lurking beneath the surface lay a monster.

Reference Ted Bundy, who worked to charm others, the courts and of course, the public.

I’m amazed he hasn’t said we need to vote out horrible Christians.

My husband says Butjig reminds him of an evil Eddie Haskell.

Butthead’s often said what a good Christian he is. He picked on VP Pence, saying G-d entered Butthead’s life through his same-sex mirage.

Trump tweeted that Butthead looks like Alfred E Neumann.
