What Would Jesus Whine About?
“For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake.” Philippians 1:29 Many conservatives have a remarkable knack for managing to be insufferably whiny even when they’re gloating over victories.

Whereas we were totally okay with wild intemperance in all these other offices
***I was working on this post before I saw the news that Andy Thomas and Lisa Aubuchon got disbarred. Huzzah!
