John Ensign, Promise Keeper

By Mike Licht


U.S. Senator John Ensign, the Republican guardian of America�s morals
from Nevada (motto: �The Gambling & Whorehouse State�) has admitted to
an extramarital affair
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/thefix/eye-on-2012/ensign-to-acknowledge-extramar.html
with his campaign treasurer, Cynthia �Cindy� Hampton,
http://www.myfoxdc.com/dpp/news/national/dpgo_Cynthia_Hampton_Ensign_Affair_fc_20090617_2581834
a family friend and the wife of his administrative assistant, Douglas
Hampton.

Senator Ensign is an active member of Promise Keepers�, a Christian
men�s fellowship (motto:� Men of Integrity�).
http://www.promisekeepers.org/

Central to Promise Keepers� membership is a pledge to keep the Seven
Promises, http://www.promisekeepers.org/about/7promises among them:


PROMISE 3: A Promise Keeper is committed to practicing spiritual,
moral, ethical, and sexual purity.


PROMISE 4: A Promise Keeper is committed to building strong marriages
and families through love, protection and biblical values.


Well � five out of seven ain�t bad.

Besides, Mr. Ensign got a 100% rating from the Christian Coalition on
family issues
http://www.ontheissues.org/Social/John_Ensign_Families_+_Children.htm
and 100% ratings from the Family Research Council (�Defending Family,
Faith, and Freedom�) http://www.frc.org/about-frc and Donald Wildmon�s
American Family Association. http://www.afa.net/about.asp


�Marriage recognizes the ideal of a father and mother living together
to raise their children. Marriage is the cornerstone on which our
society was founded � It is not right to mold marriage to fit the
desires of a few, against the wishes of so many, and to ignore the
important role of marriage.�

� Senator John Ensign (R-NV), defending the Sanctity of Marriage Act
on the Senate floor, 2004

Nevada is "The Gambling & Whorehouse State", huh? Isn't that Harry

John Edwards made a 'promise' of fidelity to his wife on their wedding
day. I guess that makes him a "typical leftard hypocrite," right?

No, they didn't. They don't lecture (well, except maybe Jackson)
others on correct behavior while pretending they're as pure as the
driven snow. Which blowhard moral majority wacko is gonna be found
dirty? Oops, one of the deans at Robertson's college for wackos.

Promise Keepers is a christian cult made up of men who feel guilty
about having cheated on their wives or girlfriends. Of course, a man
does not actually have cheat on his wife to join, but it would be like
a teetotaler joining Alcoholics Anonymous.

Ensign got a 100% rating from the Christian Coalition because he has a
Jesus up his ass. The Jesus up the Ass forgives all transgressions,
as long as the Sinner continues to wag his Finger of Righteousness at
others. The one lesson I learned from my christian upbringing was "Do
as I say, not as I do."

I guess I don't understand the hatred people like you have for
others. Ensign did himself in and got caught. That's the way life
works. I don't expect anyone to be perfect. Hopefully the voters in
his state will through him out on his ass. Too bad these same voters
don't do this to Harry Reid who is as much as a slimeball as Ensign.
But then liberals have differing ideas about sin.
