Conservatives acting badly - pdq - 06-20-2024
Item one:
Dallas-area megachurch pastor Robert Morris admitted to “inappropriate sexual behavior with a young lady” in the 1980s after a woman accused him of molesting her when she was 12 years old, according to a statement obtained by CNN affiliate WFAA.
That’s a verrry “young lady”. Like, sub-Judge Roy Moore-young lady.
Morris, a senior pastor at Gateway Church and a member of? then-candidate Donald Trump’s Evangelical Executive Advisory Board during the 2016 campaign, did not mention the name or age of the girl in his statement but said the inappropriate behavior lasted several years.
Fortunately, it’s all water under the bridge.
”In March of 1987, this situation was brought to light, and it was confessed and repented of…Since that time, I have walked in purity and accountability in this area,” Morris said in his statement, adding he and his wife met with the survivor and her family in 1989.
“I asked their forgiveness, and they graciously forgave me,” he said.
Clemishire told WFAA that though her family forgave him, they never supported Morris returning to the ministry.
But he did, and now he’s a megachurch pastor, advising godly men like Trump.

Item two:
A Vermont lawmaker was compelled to apologize publicly after being caught on video pouring water into her [Democratic lawmaker] colleague’s work bag multiple times across several months.
After his stuff kept getting all wet, the vic set up a secret camera to record the perp. Which it did. Repeatedly.
According to [vic] Carroll, [perp] Morrissey initially said that she ‘flicked’ water on the bag because she saw a bug on it.… Morrissey later apologized to Carroll during a subsequent meeting and claimed that she didn’t know the bag belonged to him. …But she later added that she didn’t know why she decided to dump water on Carroll’s bag for months on end.
:dunno:

And number three, a conservative investing badly:
Let’s see…from Yahoo finance, historical prices for DJT…ah, here we are.
Close 3/26/24 - $57.99
Today…umm, as I currently peck away, it’s…oooh…$27.08.
Wow. That’s a greater than 50%…uhh…change, in just under three months.
What shall we call this retirement strategy?

He was molesting her “in the eighties”. He was born in 1961. Meaning he started molesting a 12 year old when he was at least 19. And continued for several years.

Morris was finally booted from his church.
