Big question for Bitter Melissa of Sweet Cakes and bigotry fame:

<i>... resorting to lies from its own “fact-checkers.” </i>

Now he's lying about fact-checkers. Are his pants on fire?

In my house we sometimes have to fact-check each other. But we don't have "pinnochios" or "pants on fire". We just say "You're lying like a Republican".

He doesn't really know how the First Amendment works. But -- as a devout American Christian -- I'll bet he has a lot to say about the Second Amendment.

I think it is outrageous religious persecution for you to suggest that "Tony Perkins would try and peg that 87%" that are Christians.
