One Last Tim Murphy Follow-Up (Until The Next One)

Murphy Resigns:
Rep. Tim Murphy (R-Pa.), the embattled anti-abortion lawmaker who allegedly encouraged his lover to terminate a pregnancy, on Thursday announced his plan to resign from office later this month — just a day after announcing his plan to retire following the 2018 election.

The Pennsylvania Republican’s about-face came after House GOP leaders and senior Republicans upped the pressure on Murphy to step down. Republican sources familiar with Murphy’s thinking said the married father of one child initially believed he could weather a Pittsburgh Post-Gazette story revealing he had sent a series of text messages to his girlfriend — a psychologist half his age — encouraging her to have an abortion. Murphy had been a strongly anti-abortion lawmaker during his 15 years in Congress.
Poor guy.

And to think - if only he'd been faithful to the family values that the rest of his party seems so eager to push onto the rest of country, he would never have put himself into this mess.

Poor guy.

The Clinton were blameless.
Bill's affair/perjury and Hillary private FOIA dodging illegal server were all the fault of Republicans.

Rep. Tim Murphy being two faced in abortion strikes me as no different than Toomey/Casey with Gun Control.

Standard does not apply to Democrats
"if only he'd been faithful to the [feminist] values that the rest of his party seems so eager to push onto the rest of country, he would never have put himself into this mess."
