Evangelists abusing children, again [View all]

Yet more evidence that the fascist Republicans that charge that Democrats are all pedophiles is simply still more projection. They are so guilty, and guilty of feeling guilty, that they have to try and turn the charges around and blame Democrats. This story does not say these 2 are Republicans, but my spidey sense says they are. Beyond the political affiliation, they are exploiting religion for their own devious desires. How typical.
