They weren’t exactly doing social distancing.

Well I gotta say that his wife’s assistent certainly new those short shorts weren’t going to fit and further her top wasn’t exactly ideal either for being pregnant. I dont’ understand what it it that pregnant women today think everyone should be interested in their baby bumps being on display.

So when they continued asking Him, He lifted Himself up and said unto them, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.”

John 8:7

None of us needed none of this, that’s for sure.

Capitol Steps song to the tune of Zip-a-dee Doo Dah, sung by “Bill Clinton”:

“I’m unzippin’ my doo dah every day
Some young intern could be comin’ my way...”

“but expected of the for-profit preacher dynasties.”

He is not — NOT — a preacher. He’s a lawyer. His father was a preacher.

Falwell explained the context of the photo that he posted on Instagram last weekend and subsequently deleted, saying that his wife’s assistant is pregnant and was unable to zip up her shorts.

Where was the father of the assistant's child during this trip?

“She’s pregnant, so she couldn’t get her pants zipped,” he told the Lynchburg radio station.

Right. Her underwear fit but she didn't pack any outerwear that fit... Right.

I had on a pair of jeans I haven’t worn in a long time, so I couldn’t get mine zipped up, either.

Roger that. I always pack old ill-fitting clothes for a vacation. Understand perfectly what it's like being on vacation and unable to zip up my pants. /s.

It makes sense that it was innocent or else he himself wouldn’t have posted it for all the world to see.

But there is 1 Thessalonians 5:22 (KJV) “Abstain from all appearance of evil.” A bad decision on his part.

He was hugely instrumental in giving us President Donald J. Trump. His father was hugely instrumental in giving us President Ronald Reagan.

This is how propaganda works:

It helps to release the story through an apparently sympathetic mag
with “Christian” in the title.
The headline could have been worded any number of ways,
but this particular phrase was chosen.
While any file photo could have been used, the picture included is
NOTED TO HAVE BEEN TAKEN AT THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
It shows him in a silly posture of shaking his finger, as if at sin.
The implication: Hypocrite.
Knowing that almost no one reads the entire article anymore,
the pertinent info is buried near (but not at) the bottom.
The pertinent info shows that he was silly, even stupid,
basically male, but not whoremongering.

“This is his problem. He’s not a boy he is a 58 year old husband and father of three grown children plus the President of a Christian University. He should step down permanently and let a grown up lead the University.”

Oh for heaven’s sake, making a mountain out of a molehill. If this is the worst thing he’s done in his life, it’s absolutely piddly. Man, I can’t stand it when people get all on their moral high horses over such a trivial matter. It was a silly, having fun pic, and ruining a man’s whole career of doing wonderful things for his University is an absolute joke and verges on a moral sin of its own. Lighten up some of you overly moralistic holy rollers and let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Geez.

For those who don’t know, they were at a party where people were dressed as characters from a television show, The Trailer Park Boys, which began about 20 years ago.

Dumb move for a man in his position to post a picture with his fly unzipped, but it’s particularly choice for a fat slob like Megan McCain to whine about it, taking a break from her usual routine of promoting feminism and homosexuality. Same for S.E. Cupp. Both of them would have been fine with him participating in a “pride” march in drag, but this picture is just so very horrible. Yeah, whatever. Bad judgment on his part, as it made it way too easy for enemies to pounce.

Whoever ends up replacing him will be worse. His faults do not include pushing gay stuff and feminism into the church. It’s a shame, but it’s his mistake.

His late father would certainly disapproved of this jackass stunt by junior.
