This week Twitchy did a post on Oklahoma Rep. Jacob Rosecrants, who’s a member of Pastors for Oklahoma Kids, “a nondenominational coalition of pastors from across Oklahoma that advocate for local public school teachers, staff and children.” He was tweeting to say that he and a Democrat former teacher were teaming up “to beat down vouchers” at the capitol.
Now we have Pastors for Texas Children, which “mobilizes the faith community to support our neighborhood and community schools,” warning that right-wing Republicans are attacking public school teachers, lying about them, and calling them pornographers — likely because they’re trying to remove the graphic novel “Gender Queer,” which features graphic illustrations of oral sex, from schools.
Rightwing R’s have gotten the memo:
Attack #txed teachers. Lie about them. Call them pornographers.
They know teachers are too busy saving kids’ lives to push back.
This is the new moral swamp of TX politics. #txlege@GregAbbott_TX @tedcruz @chiproytx https://t.co/n2FQhth6AP

Please cite the specific content Ted is referring to and explain how it’s NOT “pornographic”

Teachers are saving kids’ lives? Is this a joke?

It’s shameful that you all are bearing false witness and ignoring some of the pornographic material being used. Your entire operation would benefit from adhering to Christian values instead.

Your repeated, egregious lies about our dedicated, godly teachers is the immorality we are referring to. It’s all political, as you and the liars promoting this shameful attack well know.
We will see who prevails, powerful demagogues like your bunch, or our servant teachers.

“Our dedicated, godly teachers” who are “busy saving kids’ lives”? Maybe dial it back a notch?
Oh look another group of "religious" communists working to keep poor kids trapped.
Doing the devil's work on this earth. Good job.

False. We are on to you fake pastors. We assume the precise diametrical opposite of whatever you say

Does every state have one of these “Pastors for Children” groups that want to “beat down vouchers” and keep kids trapped in failing public schools?
