What kind of good Christian woman,

[MoonRiver]

who wants to raise her children to be moral upstanding citizens, works for and enables men who in the vilest and most violent language imaginable, openly insult and demean everyone they disagree with, while also discussing and bragging about groping and sucking on the private parts of both men and women?

What kind of woman? Why Sarah Huckabee Sanders, of course, a person who is the walking, talking epitome of Republican hypocrisy.

[SharonClark]

1. Put the 'vile' blame where it belongs - on Trump and Scaramucci (who claim to be Christian as well)

Huckabee is an enabler as is the rest of the White House and cabinet but she is not causing the vileness.

[asiliveandbreathe]

4. Perhaps..but she is the mouth of the WH and going along with and adding to

the vileness...a lot of what she says, is wrapped around what she thinks....I am not ready to give her a pass...would I, forsake the American people, in the ways SHS is...not in my lifetime...she is selling us out for money...and fame..too bad it is the wrong kind....she is enabling the wrong people....but then, she has NO point of reference other than big daddy....

[SharonClark]

10. I'm not giving her a pass but let's quit blaming women for the actions of men.

[Bettie]

13. I'm a woman

and I blame her, not for the actions of the men, but for her own actions in CHOOSING to knowingly and blatantly lie day in and out about what is happening.

As a mother, I think that is a terrible example to set for her children.

I feel the same about KellyAnne.

Men who lie all day every day are just as poor of examples for their kids, but in evangelical/very religious families moms tend to be more involved with kids than the men.

[flibbitygiblets]

22. Me too, agree completely. No one forced her to take this shite job and lie.

Suckabee Slanders isn't being blamed for their actions, she's being blamed for condoning, excusing and perpetuating it.

[Bettie]

24. Most important rule in our house is that

no one lies.

Leads to a lot of me asking my boys "do you really want an answer to that question?". They have learned to say "no" sometimes, because I also don't sugar coat things too much.

But, it also makes parenting way simpler. If my boys have done something wrong, they admit it immediately, knowing that the punishment is WAY worse if they lie.

I worry though that I'm handicapping them for the future. None of them lies, even if the truth makes them look bad.

This has caused them problems among the kids at school...oh, and one parent told me that lying is a sign of creativity and intelligence in kids which is kind of bizarre to me, but whatever.

But, back to the point: as a mom, I would be totally embarrassed to get up and lie to people on television daily. I'd feel like it made me a bad mom and a bad person. No one is forcing her to do that and the fact that she does leads one to assume a lack of morals.

[hamsterjill]

25. Huckabee Sanders is perpetuating the actions of these men.

Therefore, I (as a woman) will NOT give her or Kellyanne a pass. In my mind, they are all disgusting.

[sprinkleeninow]

31. Hypocrites all. n/t

[hamsterjill]

39. +1

n/t

[asiliveandbreathe]

32. Where did that come from? - I don't care if she is man or woman -

She, who just happens to be a woman, is as vile as they come...I do not blame her for being a woman - I am a woman..she has a choice - she made her choice...

Blaming women for the actions of men???? - Did I do that??? I blame SHS for her own actions....

[Glamrock]

40. You might want to reread the post

Poster never accused her of being vile, just a hypocrite.

[SergeStorms]

48. I think she's...

responsible for her own actions, and for the words which come out of her mouth. She chooses to enable them, which means she agrees with what they're saying. They're not holding a gun to her head to walk out there and say those things. She's just as big a jackass as the man sitting in the Oval Office.

Just my opinion. I wouldn't stick up for anyone in this mis-administration.

[MoonRiver]

6. I did.

[we can do it]

54. People like her are the reason we have the pig there.

Fake hateful xtians.

[flt rsk]

2. Its not pc to ridicule on someone with disabilities. Lack of morals is a disability, right?

[MoonRiver]

8. Not as far as I know.

[csziggy]

12. Huckabee Sanders has been brainwashed since she was a child

She needed an intervention and pity years ago.

But now that she has been an adult for a significant time she needs to take responsibility for her actions and their consequences.

[narnian60]

[asiliveandbreathe]

3. Could it be the indoctrination she has been so completely been immersed in..

Could it be? - perhaps? -as to why, considering the evil way in which her brain works - when people are able to think for themselves, weigh all sides of an issue, see ALL people, not be swayed by rhetoric, believe in themselves to make good decisions, do the most good for the most people - then they are NOT the walking dead.....

Do the most good for the most people should be the starting point....

[hamsterjill]

28. It is not my job to analyze her behavior.

It is my right, as a citizen, to have an opinion about her behavior. She is a vile, nasty and mean human being. She treats the press corp (who are there only to do their jobs) like shit. There is NOTHING "Christian" about her behavior.

I don't care what she has been immersed in. Her job is to answer questions posed to her by the press with accuracy and truth. A little bit of decorum wouldn't hurt either. Instead, she vilifies the reporter who asks questions of her.

[SergeStorms]

49. Then that could be said for......

just about anyone. Are we going to feel sorry for the Orange Hemorrhoid now, because he didn't get enough love from his despicable father?

[brooklynite]

7. Nonsense...good Christian women do what men tell them to do...

[MoonRiver]

9. Well yeah, there's that too.

[sprinkleeninow]

34. That's another verse run into the ground by certain so-called

christian sects. They don't include the adjacent ones, as usual.

[Initech]

11. Why is it that the people who claim to be the most religious are also the most horrible?

I have never understood that. It is possible to be a Christian without being a colossal dick, but it also seems to me that the holiest of thou are also the worst people imaginable! Why is that?

[MoonRiver]

14. Hell if I know, lol.

That's a question for the ages.

[smirkymonkey]

15. I've noticed that too.

It's funny, when people make a point of telling me "I'm a Christian", they might as well be telling me "I'm a giant asshole".

[sammythecat]

19. true dat n/t

[hamsterjill]

30. I see your point, but hey, "I'm a Christian".

And I don't consider myself a giant asshole.

There is a movement underway (i.e., Bishop Barber) to call attention to the fact that the right wing crazies don't necessarily represent the teachings of Christ. I'm happy to see that movement beginning. You know, returning grace, mercy, love, compassion, etc. to the dialogue.

The right wing crazies have tried to hold ownership of Christianity for some time, when in fact, they represent only a portion of us - vocal as they may be.

[smirkymonkey]

59. No, I don't mean all people who identify as Christians are assholes.

There are different types of Christians. There are the mainstream Catholics/Protestants, etc who quietly walk their talk and then their are the Mega Church, Political christians with a capital K, who will never pass up an opportunity to tell you "I am A CHRISTIAN" and those are the people that I am referring to.

They aren't real Christians, they are a right-wing hate cult hiding behind Christianity in order to feel better about the evil things that they do and say.

[hamsterjill]

61. Yep. You got it!!!

Peace.

[Enoki33]

33. It is possible they somehow think they are superior because they believe they

already have all the answers and no longer need to look further.

[BBG]

17. They got theirs, that's why...

As in they think they got a get-out-of-hell-free card and so can do nothing that will be held against them. The moral curse of evangelicals.

[sprinkleeninow]

37. "Once saved, always saved." eom

[IronLionZion]

18. To compensate for their repression

There is a type of person who think their sins will be forgiven and their conscience will be clear if they cast judgment down upon others and make them suffer. It's also a way of deflecting blame and attention off of themselves and projecting it onto others.

I've seen it too many times. It has to be a pattern.

[hibbing]

29. It's always the ones who proclaim it

I worked with a woman, who always talked about her Christianity. She had a poster in her office "Remember the persecuted". One time we were taking about something and she says something about "Gayds" instead of AIDS. I will live forever with the guilt and shame of not having filed some sort of complaint against her.

Peace

[Initech]

44. Yeah I know a few people like that.

Maybe being that religious makes them miserable?

[sprinkleeninow]

36. "It is written." eom

[SergeStorms]

50. I think it's because....

they view themselves as doing "god's work", and that the end justifies ANY means it takes to get there. They don't realize how much they have in common with radical Islam.

[sinkingfeeling]

20. Give her a break, she was brought up a Southern Baptist. Preacher's daughter. Look

at the lies her daddy's told.

[TomSlick]

62. Obviously correct but

Momma Janet makes Daddy Mike seem almost a real Christian.

Two Arkansas expressions apply: "She can't help her raising" and "bless her heart."

[Moostache]

21. Recipe for cognitive dissonance: associate "good" as synonym for "Christian"

Sorry for a bit of snark, but I am sick to death of the wildly abused notion that self-identifying as a "Christian" has anything at all to do with being a good, moral person....in many cases it is a categorical disqualifying attribute, not a badge of honor...

[paleotn]

23. Just like her diddy....

I isn't about religion. It's about the money. They would openly worship satan if it involved a sizable revenue stream.

[onecaliberal]

26. Easy, she's a fake Christian

[alarimer]

27. It's time we stopped being afraid of "dirty" words.

Christians are the biggest hypocrites on the planet if they criticize somebody over dirty words, yet excuse the actions of a Trump administration that are more vile than mere language.

I hate pearl clutching when it comes to language. You can be morally upstanding and still curse. You could argue that there is a time and place for everything, but morals have little to do with language itself. And it's prissy to complain about it anyway, as if it's the worst thing on the planet. The Trump Administration and anyone associated with it are doing to people what they accused Steve Bannon of doing to himself.

[Initech]

46. Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker and tits.

And tits doesn't even belong on the list!

[Warren DeMontague]

55. No fucking shit.

[ProudLib72]

35. I wrote about this last night

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10029382076

[Soxfan58]

38. She sure is Daddies girl

[Skittles]

41. I am curious

what does being Christian have to do with raising children to be moral upstanding citizens?

[MoonRiver]

57. Nothing but that is usually one of their avowed goals.

Of course non-Christians want the same thing.

[MFM008]

42. Another

"Daddy's girl"......

[kimbutgar]

43. Her Dad is one of those christofacist grifters

So the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

[jalan48]

45. Fake Christian woman. Name only.

[Nevernose]

47. Abortion.

One of my closest friend's mother works with us (as in, employment). Kind, generous. She still makes me lunch once a week, even when I didn't marry her daughter . (Coincidentally, her daughter, my daughter, and I were Sanders delegates; my wife and yet another coworker were Clinton delegates. Never a single argument in real life)

The mom lives her life in the Christian ideal, all the way. Mormon, too, no less.

She won't vote Democratic because she's against abortion. She won't vote for "dead babies" regardless of any other issue. I think we did convince her to vote at all.

[gilbert sullivan]

51. "good christian woman"

is a double oxymoron.

[gohuskies]

52. Bingo!

As I read your post, I was thinking it was the vile creature Sarah Huckabee. She is completely offensive and a total scumbag who claims pious virtue. She is the opposite of all that is good. An idealogue with dark ages mentality.

[geretogo]

53. Look who her father is , Mike, hypocrite , fascist , Mussolini lover , Huckabee .

Like father like daughter .

[Warren DeMontague]

56. Maybe because real "goodness" has nothing to do with either Christianity or not swearing?

[MoonRiver]

58. Well, of course.

[beam me up scottie]

60. That right there!

Thank you, so tired of the word 'Christian' being synonymous with good.

[Warpy]

63. One who grew up lying for her crooked preacher turned crooked politician daddy

I don't imagine much of what she was taught when she was growing up added up and I imagine the consequences for noticing that were fairly severe.

[RhodeIslandOne]

64. Look at who her daddy is
