Ah, all the signs of no talent and no morals.

Must be of the D-word persuation.

And - of course - a bimbo.

(Bimbo: See “Pelosi, Boxer, Feinstein, Chelsea, and just about any D-word female.)

If Sinema is an Atheist, she is a member of a faith community.

We have so many Representative who have sworn on the Bible and still violate their oaths what does it matter? If someone does not believe in or have the fear of God in them it does not matter if they swear on the Bible or a Penthouse magazine!

If swearing on the Bible means something, then explain Boehner, Pelosi, etc.

Kyrsten

When one votes for someone with such a name, like Barack, this is what you get....a POS.

The newly elected representative for Arizona’s 9th district swore her oath of office on a copy of the Constitution instead.

John Quincy Adams took his Presidential Oath of Office with his hand on a law book.

Why would you apply for a job and the FIRST OFFICIAL thing you do is not in standing of what the rules are?

Like Rush used to say....You wanted a McDonalds franchise and the first thing you did was want to do was make it vegetarian.
If your idea is so good and so many people want it that way, START your own business and do what pleases YOU, don’t use MY name to further your business when you want nothing to do with the way I operate.....

Well, something like that and if Rush didn’t say it, I just did, so I guess I would be guilty of the same thing...<:

I hope Mayor Vernon Parker seeks a rematch. That thing should be selling vibrators at a Penthouse outlet store.

What rule requires anyone to swear an oath of office on a Bible?

Will a Buddhist, Muslim or Hindu congressperson be expected to swear an oath on a Bible?

What about if they have to testify in a court of law?

Just asking.

Rumor here in AZ is that she has no male friends (wink, wink).

I think the district is hopeless. Contains all of Tempe and most of central Phoenix. I’m surprised Parker did as well as he did.

I think it takes far more “faith” to believe that God doesn’t exist.
