Mariann Budde, Right Reverend bishop of Washington,
speaking directly to The Felon’s fat face during the National Prayer Service at
the Washington National Cathedral:
“Let me make one final plea, Mr. President. Millions have
put their trust in you, and as you told the nation yesterday, you have felt the
providential hand of a loving God. In the name of our God, I ask you to have
mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay,
lesbian, and transgender children in Democratic, Republican, and independent
families, some who fear for their lives. The people who pick our crops and
clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants,
who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in
hospitals, they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but the
vast majority of immigrants are not criminals. They pay taxes and are good
neighbors. They are faithful members of our churches and mosques, synagogues,
gurdwara, and temples. I ask you to have mercy, Mr. President, on those in our
communities whose children fear their parents will be taken away, and that you
help those who are fleeing war zones and persecution in their own lands to find
compassion and welcome here. Our God teaches us that we are to be merciful to
the stranger, for we were all once strangers in this land. May God grant us the
strength and courage to honor the dignity of every human being, to speak the
truth to one another in love, and walk humbly with each other and our God, for
the good of all people, the good of all people in this nation and the world.
Amen.”
Of course, The Felon instantly called her a ‘nasty’ woman
because she used words he doesn’t understand like ‘compassion and ‘mercy.’
I will add that on inauguration Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was
asked by the media if she would be in attendance and she replied, “I don’t
celebrate rapists, so, No, I won’t be going.”
Isn’t it funny how women—Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris, AOC and
Mariann Budde—speak out asking The Felon while men, even men on the left, say
very little?
Had we elected a woman this wouldn’t have happened.

ReplyDeleteI loved all of these entries!
ReplyDeleteI read this morning about Rev. Budde giving Matthew Shepherd a safe final resting place in the National Cathedral. Before that they were afraid to lay him to rest anywhere because of vandals desecrating his grave.
ReplyDeleteRev. Buddy is a credit to our horrible country.
Be the BEST!
ReplyDeleteIn the Budde and the Kinsinger cases, The Felon proves time and time again that he is the biggest snowflake of all. Or, as Bill Maher would say, "Whiny little bitch."
ReplyDeleteAnd, Hoult is great - been a fan since "Warm Bodies."
THIS is what I didn’t know I needed today.
ReplyDeleteLoved all these stories, Bob.
Reverend Buddy is a hero.
XOXO

Budde. Damn you, spell correct!

There is light in the darkness . . .
ReplyDeleteKinzinger rocks! When I saw that Orloff/Hoult scene in Nosferatu the first thing I thought of was "they're having sex." And Budde was great, but now she needs to stay away from windows.

🥰 I wish for every gay person (and for anyone who needs to come out in any way) to have family and friends who love them and get them and have the money to buy them Dior boots!! 🤩
ReplyDelete🤬🤬 U.S.Rep. Mike Collins (Fascist-GA) wants Bishop Budde deported from the US to...the US?! She was born here! Steve Doocy (Stupid Fascist-FauxNews) wants Trump to shop for a new National Cathedral because he shouldn't have to be challenged in church!! 😳 Because Jesus bade his disciples to go to all the world and spread the Good News! That all the world must find the churches that will change to fit each person's demands. And he bade the disciples to do so in His name, lest any church would offer unto men that it is they who should change! For the Good News is that all men are perfect, there is no sin, and each man should tell each church what to do!! And, finally, Jesus bade his disciples to just forget the whole thing because if each man determines for himself what the Good News is, what the hell do we need all these churches for?! 🤨🤷♀️
Great post! Why did any democrats show up at the inauguration at all? They should've sent cardboard cut-out placeholders instead...
ReplyDeleteThat Reverend was brilliant. And I agree with you on how silent the left has been specially the men. Of course I was even more appalled when I saw the Senate had a unanimous clean sweep to approve Marco Rubio. What's going on Democrats are we resisting or assisting?
