Gingrich started it in the 80's with Ralph Reed and the Christian Coalition

Republicans deciding that they were Family-values Christians who would tell us how to live Christian lives and who would bring Christ back into the Government...
They told us how to live, told us to hate the Mexicans, blacks, non-subservient women and Gays. They told us that Amurika was lacking God and was paying the price for his divine presence absence in Congress...

How many here believe these guys ever, EVER, truly follow the teachings of Jesus Christ?

I have always believed those people: Gingrich, Reed (maybe he believed a little) Bob Allen, Ken Calvert , Mark Foley, David Vitter, Larry Craig, Ted Haggard , Henry Hyde, Jim Bakker, John Ensign, Michael D. Duvall , Bob Livingston, Mark" humping the Appalachian trail" Sanford, Lou Beres, and so many more were lying hypocrites.

I am fairly certain that if any of them them mentioned Jesus Christ's name it was because they stubbed a toe, dropped a dish, or saw Obama on TV.

Vance McAllister is the Republican Party's latest addition to the Christian FAMILY VALUES hypocrisy hall of shame.
And HE is still blaming everyone but himself!!! And they (GOP) still want to tell us how to live according to Jesus!
