Family Research Council honors Repug who owes $100,000+ in child support for his family values

Rep. Joe Walsh is the only Illinois congressman to be named a “True Blue” member of Congress for “unwavering support of the family” by the Family Research Council Action Committee.

Walsh’s ex-wife says the Republican congressman owes more than $100,000 in back child support for their three children. Walsh counters that he and his wife had a “verbal agreement” that he didn’t have to pay child support during years when he wasn’t earning as much.

“We thank Congressman Walsh who has voted consistently to defend faith, family and freedom,” said FRCA President Tony Perkins. “Congressman Walsh and other ‘True Blue Members’ have voted to repeal Obamacare, de-fund Planned Parenthood, end government funding for abortion within the health care law, uphold the Defense of Marriage Act, and continue support for school choice. I applaud their commitment to uphold the institutions of marriage and family.” .............(more)

5. Family Research Council has nothing to do with families and even less to do with research
This award says FRC is a fucking clown show, no offense to actual clowns.

6. Did his CHILDREN make a verbal agreement not to get hungry,


need medical attention or clothes, or school supplies "during years when he wasn't earning as much?"

FRCA is a bunch of misogynist GOONs, so of course they would celebrate a MAYUN who put a woman and her children through hell.

Making women and children suffer is their goal, always.

They are really the HeMan Woman Hater's Club....a bunch of little boys whose Diddies never loved 'em right, so now they take it out on them wymmins...


THIS is Classic.
