Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA) is the latest Republican member of Congress to get caught living a lie behind their "pro-life" stance.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported:
A text message sent in January to U.S. Rep. Tim Murphy by a woman with whom he had an extra-marital relationship took him to task for an anti-abortion statement posted on Facebook from his offices public account.
And you have zero issue posting your pro-life stance all over the place when you had no issue asking me to abort our unborn child just last week when we thought that was one of the options, Shannon Edwards, a forensic psychologist in Pittsburgh with whom the congressman admitted last month to having a relationship, wrote to Mr. Murphy on Jan. 25, in the midst of an unfounded pregnancy scare.

From the article: "...a six-page memo to Mr. Murphy purportedly written by his chief of staff, Susan Mosychuk described a hostile workplace in which Mr. Murphy repeatedly denigrated employees, threatened them and created a state of terror. "
This guy must have serious psychological issues. I hope his conduct is big news in his district--his job performance must be significantly negatively impacted. Probably the reason challengers appear to be lining up to run against him.
Oh, and yeah, he's a frickin' hypocrite. Typical fake xtian pushing an anti-abortion agenda.
