A Few Words About Rep. Mark Souder From The Concerned Women For America
A Few Words Regarding Rep. Mark Souder…

Concerned Women For America

May 18th, 2010
by Kristina Hernandez


Penny Nance, CEO of Concerned Women for America (CWA), the nation’s largest public policy women’s group, said the following about Rep. Mark Souder’s (R-Indiana) resignation:
    “I am deeply saddened by the news of Congressman Mark Souder’s fall into the temptation of an affair. Those of us who have worked with Mark over the years know him to be a kind and thoughtful legislator. If Mark Souder is capable of sexual misconduct, it could happen to anyone. The frat house environment on Capitol Hill does nothing to encourage accountability. Most Members do not live with their families while they are working in D.C. during the week and have even ditched common rules of etiquette that even major corporations follow such as office doors with windows or careful examination of employee/boss interaction.

    “There are many Americans running for office this year who want to bring integrity and family values back to Washington. I challenge any incumbents who manage to escape the wrath of the American people to guard their hearts and reputations and to live by higher standards that reflect the traditional moral values our country holds so dear.”

    “In addition, as a Christian I believe that we are all fallen and in need of redemption. I join the countless others now and throughout ages past who cling diligently to the hope of grace and redemption.”

- Then she picked up her tissue again, and began to sob quietly at the loss of their great hero for Abstinence, Regular God-Given Sex and Christian Family Values. She sobbed for a man whom Satan had now gathered-up as one of his own. And Satan got hold of him so easily by just using one of Indiana's many corn-fed hussies who couldn't keep her legs crossed around such a powerful God-inspired man!

Lawdy, lawdy. That Jebus sure does work in such mysterious ways.......

1. He wasn't hiding behind windowless doors he was in the woods with his honey!
Don't blame the environment in Washington. You either give into sexual opportunities or you don't. Take responsibility repubs!

3. Looks like this lil affair might be a very long term one
Indianapolis TV station WISH resurrected the transcript of an Amy Goodman interview from 1998 where Souder hung on her when she asked him if he'd ever had an extramarital affair:

7. In other words, "The Devil made him do it!"
Funny how you don't hear them talking about "personal responsibility", which I'd be willing to lay odds is one of their favorite talking points.

9. My god, they've got that look down pat...
...she looks like a Michelle Bachman clone. The big hair, the big mouth, the big white toothy smile (but the eyes never look like they're really smiling), EEEEK!

13. Very, very, funny commentary...
The party of personal responsibility blaming "the frat house environment" and office doors without windows for his cheating. Right.

18. Largest group....
...of "concerned women." That's different. They're concern is the kind of....

(1) Concern with whom you are sleeping. And,

(2) Concerned with how, when and why you're sleeping with 'em, and they're against anything that includes "wriggling or fingering" of any kind. They're,

(3) Concerned whether whom you're sleeping with is of the correct skin hue and religiosity. And they're,

(4) Concerned with the duration, positions, and number of sexual partners you have with which you are sleeping (at any given setting). And they're also,

(5) Concerned about stem cells and snowflake babies. And then finally they're,

(6) Concerned about abstinence and how it should be for everybody who isn't married to someone else, even if it means not having sex with 'em themselves (like Mark Souder is no doubt not having any with Mrs. Souder -- before his affair(s) came out, and definitely after).

And they have all these "concerns" in the name of Jebus. Of course. Because Jebus would've wanted them to be concerned, just like He is.


- And why on earth do they do it? "They do it all for the children."
