Prayers Needed for Republican George Santos
 
Democrats are being very unfair with Republican Representative, George Santos. He was elected recently from New York.

He was settled in in Congress serving the people of New York when Democrats started bring up unimportant issues. Santos told voters he graduated from a prestigious college. The college says it has no records of him.

Santos said he had a successful career with a couple of big Wall Street firms. The firms said they had no record of him.

All this is of no importance whatsoever and George needs our prayers to continue.

Brother Mayor, I understand that this Santos person made a claim to be gay but was recently divorced from a woman. This is all very confusing. If Santos wanted Democrats and other degenerates to vote for him, then, sure, go ahead and declare yourself gay. But running as a Gay Republican? That's sort of like being a Gay Christian.

People's thought processes can be so mixed up. That's why a solid strategy of not thinking and just relying on the Bible makes the most sense.

The people of New York have spoken and that's the end of the matter as far as I'm concerned. That's how democracy works - you do whatever it takes to win.

Records, huh?

Every record of anything is incomplete (except the Bible and any of Pastor Zeke's documents relating to anything), think I am going to trust some prestigious "college" and some Wall Street "Firm"? No sir

You bring up a point of law, Unfalse. Lots of our state laws are based on the legal concept of "sincerely held beliefs." It means that when someone has a sincerely held belief it is not possible to refute the person holds this belief.

To be legally consistent, we must apply the same standard to our Republican friend, George. He sincerely believes he graduated from and prestigious university and worked in prominent Wall Street firms. Legally, this information has to be treated as true and all doubts or questions dropped.

More heart-breaking news today about George. He is now recalling more clearly and says he was mistaken, he did not graduate from an ivy league school, or graduate from college anywhere, and did not work for the Wall Street firms as he had said previously. He apologized for what he calls, "resume embellishment."

Democrats are being unreasonable over all of this. They are calling for him to resign his seat in the House of Representatives. Ridiculous. I've read the Constitution and it does not prohibit resume embellishment.

The news is full of George Santos this evening. All the publicity can only help him.

The theme of stories now is about why, when he ran two years ago, George had no wealth. Only two years later his newly established consulting company had made him wealthy. He gave $700,000 of his own money to his campaign.

The liberal talking heads want to know where this money came from? How could he go from rags to riches in two years?

How Rep. Santos came into so much money in such a short time is no one else's business but his.

Covetousness is one of the things God hates in His children (Exodus 20:17) although it's OK if He does it (Exodus 34:14).

Democrats are showing their low class by begrudging the success of George Santos, just like they invented ugly slurs about Donald Trump's ability to shift overpriced condos to Russians after the collapse of the Soviet Union led to a corrupt sell off of state assets to political cronies.

My advice to George would be to sell some George Santos-themed NFT photoshops for $4m in less than 24 hours.

Good idea, Dr. Toole.

It may be an especially good idea just now because George is moving into his sister's apartment. If the wealth he acquired so quickly is now quickly gone, he needs both good money-making ideas and our prayers.

Honestly, I was never really sold on George Santos. It's not the lies--as True Christians™ we have to lie for Jesus all the time--but it's that I thought he was a Jew, and it turns out that his family is from Brazil. I don't trust Jews or Mexicans, even when they are Republicans. Nevertheless, he is the candidate that God selected, and that means we have to support him 179%. I will pray for Rep. Santos (if that is his real name).

Hmm, a non-Jew pretending to be a Jew to get elected? That's a new one. Usually it's the other way around. Jesus may forgive him, though there's a limit. Did this guy brag about the crucifixion during the campaign?

Santos, De Santis..aren't these all part of a catholic conspiracy to seize government like in Ireland and Italy. Catholics create "saints" every time the coffers are looking a little bare.

We need good American names like Trump, Greene, Bannon and Jordan in charge of America, not a bunch of wetbacks.

While we're praying for George, we need to cut him a little slack. Sure, he's not a Jew but there are lots of Jew voters on Long Island. He got lots of Jew votes.

There are lots of blue bloods on Long Island, too. They went to the Ivy Leagues and make big money of Wall Street. George had some material in his embellished resume for them too. Again, he got their votes.

There are plenty of homers on Long Island as well. How do you get their votes? George did it.

We need to get back to basics here. Our country needs principled conservative men serving in the House of Representatives. To get elected, the candidates we want in the House need to do certain things. We True Christians™ need to pray for them.

Re: Prayers Needed for Republican George Santos
 
You're right. George Santos's Jew d'etat was a perfectly legitimate campaign tactic. The Jews who voted for him ought to at least appreciate his 'dirty tricks,' one craftsman to another. For real the guy's name is three letters away from "George Soros" and he sported big Woody Allen glasses on the campaign trail. If the voters were too dumb to use the one surefire way of detecting a Jew, going to its Wikipedia page and checking the "Early Life" section, then they deserve to get stuck with a gentile.

Wouldn't responsible voters check stuff out before voting, if they were genuinely concerned?

My friend bought a car a few years ago. It was a lovely shade of green, then it started going Ug! Ug!! Ug!!! Ug!!!! and there was all this smoke and the wheels fell off or in fact the axles broke and the driver's seat fell through the floor: I had to smile: there are vehicle examiners willing to do a pre-sale check if one must buy from private sellers who (not being traders) aren't expected to have expert knowledge. Even if a voter doesn't have the time there are auditors available for the purpose. Everyone can chip in a few $ it needn't cost much.

What's all this about $700K? Any decent business turns that over in under a day! Perhaps the commie press have got off the leash again and meant he was a shopkeeper? Even home businesses selling to locals manage that. By wasting language on trivialities, when something serious does turn up there are no words left to describe it. Carpet nuking for example or an outbreak of Anthrax and Bubonic Plague.

Praying for God to restore our language.

Another news article about George was published today and I think it deserves both our prayers and help. The article says George should build trust between himself and Long Island voters. Good advice.

I drafted a statement for George that I hope he can use toward this end. My thinking is an open and frank discussion of who he is will put voters at ease and put an end to all of this nonsense that he embellished his past. Here is what I'm suggesting he read to the press:

I'm here to level with voters about who I am and my past. First, there is the matter of my college career. Lots of you can relate to your time in college as a time of boring classes and party time. Apparently, that was my experience because my recollection of college is a bit uncertain and unimportant to my service in Congress.

Then there is the matter of my work history. My goal in life was to address big issues and accomplish great things. Desk jobs and mundane employment never seemed right for those goals.

I'm glad to have cleared up any confusion about who I am and my life's resume. My life's experiences will serve me well in my career in the House of Representative. Thank you.

Great response, that will make them feel foolish on Long Island! Maybe come familiar examples:

"(it's like) The 90s - if you can remember them you weren't there."

The audacity of Democrats is atrocious. Now the outgoing member of the House from Representative Santos' District is saying our friend, George, is a liar and a "con man."

The thing that hurts about this is I knew this guy, Rep. Tommy Santos, when he was the Mayor of Glen Cove, NY. He is a Democrat but he was not completely over the edge. Now he has become a Biden hatchet man.

Another reason George needs our prayers--Republicans in the House are shunning him. He has to sit alone. None include him in the chit chat. He wore a blue sweater:
