In today’s installment of people who need a new act…
Vice President Mike Pence has announced himself as the keynote speaker at the anniversary gala for Concerned Women for America, a noted anti-queer/conservative Christian fundraising group. The event will take place this evening at the Trump International Hotel in Washington DC.
“The planned speeches suggest that President Trump and his Cabinet are not shying away from events that drive revenue to Trump’s company, even after multiple stories have brought new scrutiny to the blurring of lines between Trump’s business and presidency,” The Washington Post noted in a report.

Mike Pence, of course, is no stranger to Christian wingnut causes, having advocated conversion therapy and once boasted that he had a hard time forgiving his wife for having sex with another man before meeting him. That history fits well with that of Concerned Women for America, whose “Ruby Red and Black Tie Gala” historically raises large amounts of money for Republican politicians, even if the title of the event sounds like nightclub act of a drag queen duo.
Concerned Women for America has a long history of opposing LGBTQ rights including marriage equality as they “harm traditional,” that is, heterosexual, families. The group also opposes teaching evolution and sex education in schools, membership in the United Nations, stem cell research and favored manditory prayer in schools. In an ironic twist, the group also opposes the Equal Rights Amendment and other employment protections for women, advocating instead that women remain unemployed to raise children. The group has also claimed that Christians have a duty to spawn children, as women have a natural desire to become mothers.

How much more obvious can it be that even right-wing Christians nuts do not want to see him as president? Christians are opportunists at heart and the foolishness attributed to Trump is more than proof that they do not want Trump to leave because they know THIS is what would replace him. Instead of uniting Christians he would be the root cause of a religious civil war.

I’m confused here…this stupid group known as Concerned Women of America sounds more like one of those FLDS ‘fundamentalist’ desert-living, sister-wife things without the sister-wives, lol…and I wish that complete strangers do not CONCERN themselves with MY personal business. I certainly do not lose any sleep over the fact that Pence is an abomination to ME and my beliefs; so the holy-rollin’ Churchies can just keep looking like idiots or time-travelers from 1321, whatever. Don’t care, lol….and how much do the CWA members loathe THEMSELVES, to be females who readily buy the “you’re a woman, useless unless barefoot and pregnant” argument that their men insist on replaying every time a female has an intelligent thought…ick. Fire up the time-machine; we’re sending these antiquated assh*les back to the cave, lol…..

Whether one likes it or not, Concerned Women for America has many more members than the National Organization for Women (NOW). I don’t care what audience he speaks before; if you don’t like him, then don’t vote for him.

Mike Pence is hollow. Never knows where he is at any given moment . always has a dazed and confused look on his face…. That sums. Sums it up for me.
