Republicans ... don't you just love 'em.

Sat, 04/15/2017 - 14:07 -- skybird

So good with the ethics,
the caring, considerate, oh so 
compassionate Christian 
way of getting things done ...

 

the looking out for the needy,
the helping the helpless,
the following the words of 
their saviour thing they've 
got going on here,

its curious to say the least or just
simply stone cold hypocritical 
how the political party 
most mouthing out 
the words of God, 
most concerned with 
prayers & such,

 

seems quite comfortable 
if not , well almost gleeful, 
at the prospect of a tougher, 
harder life for the elderly, 
the sick, 
the impoverished.

 

Have they read the same Jesus texts as me?
Sermon on the Mount lets say,
& how is your Christianity weighed
I wonder?

 

God helps those who help themselves?
God pays back those who pay the preacher?
God doesn't really believe in the very idea
of 'help' in any form whatsoever?

 

What give Republicans?

 

Once more I ask this fundamental question.

 

Republicans, are you human?
