Senator Patty Murray
Washington State
Do Not Be Ungrateful Thank White Men

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, (2 Timothy 3:1-2)

(Romans 13:7) Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

Senator Patty Murray be sure and thank the white men who created the Constitution of the United States that allowed you to be elected and vote 10,000 times. After you get the plank of pride out of your eye, you might want to seriously consider a re-look at just what destruction your 10,000 votes have done. But that is a side-issue at the moment.

In short, do not be ungrateful if you are going to brag, boast and get all puffed up about your female DNA. Which, of course, you did not one single thing to make happen. You Democrats certainly know how to demand taxes that everyone owes the State of Washington so in return at least be grateful to the White Men that allowed you to collect monies.

In addition be sure and thank God by repenting of your women pride as He is the one that created your female DNA – not you.

(1 Corinthians 4:7) For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?

I just cast my 10,000th vote on the Senate floor—the first woman in history to reach this milestone, but certainly not the last! — Senator Patty Murray (@PattyMurray) April 20, 2023

White Men
Constitution of the United States

Those who follow Jesus walk above the stormy waters of politics. However, it is almost easier to walk on water than it is to discuss politics in a loving, respectful manner these days because of the love of most is growing cold.

Each day ungratefulness increases around the world. Jesus promised such would happen. As Paul wrote in the New Testament.

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God– (2 Timothy 3:1-4)

Again, one aspect of the “terrible times” is being ungrateful. We see this among many who in their arrogance concerning their DNA boast and brag as if they have no need to thank the white men who wrote The Constitution of the United States.

The Constitution of the United States is unique in history. The Constitution set into motion a series of events that overtook their faults and sins.

So next someone who prides themselves on being the “first” on some DNA level to achieve in the United States let them be humble and grateful by thanking the “white men” who polished up The Constitution of The United States.

As God stated:

Give everyone what you owe him if respect, then respect, if honor, then honor. (Romans 13:7)

Now a little backstory on The Constitution of the United States: A Unique Historical Document and Its Signers

The U.S. Constitution is one of the most important documents in world history. Even though it was written and enacted more than 200 years ago, it has stood the test of time. The delegates to the Constitutional Convention were true geniuses and we continue to benefit from their genius today.

Because of this, I want to explore both the history of this seminal document and the people who signed it. Through this process, we can better appreciate their work and how they made America what it is today.

A Brief History

So, let’s start with some basics. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land and stands as a testament to the political foresight and innovative thinking of its creators. The Constitution has governed the United States since its adoption in 1787, and its significance lies in its establishment of a government framework that balances power between the national government and the states, as well as within the branches of the federal government itself.

The historical backdrop of the Constitution began with the dissatisfaction of the nation’s founders with the Articles of Confederation. Drafted in 1777 and ratified in 1781, the Articles served as the first governing document for the newly independent United States. However, it soon became apparent that the Articles were inadequate in terms of providing a strong, centralized government. This led to the Constitutional Convention, held in Philadelphia in 1787, where delegates from 12 of the 13 states convened to revise the Articles.

The Convention ultimately produced an entirely new document—the United States Constitution. The Constitution introduced a system of checks and balances, which divided power among the three branches of government: the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. This unique arrangement provided for a federal government that was strong enough to govern a growing nation but limited enough to prevent tyranny. Furthermore, the Constitution established the principle of federalism, which allowed for a balance of power between the states and the national government.

In addition to its innovative political structure, the Constitution is also unique in its flexibility. The Framers recognized that future generations might need to adapt the document to changing circumstances, and they included a process for amending it. To date, there have been 27 amendments, including the Bill of Rights, which comprises the first ten amendments and guarantees individual liberties.

Signatories to the U.S. Constitution

Overall, there were 55 delegates who attended the Constitutional Convention sessions. Having said that, only 39 actually signed the Constitution.

Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.

Senator Patty Murray

Senator Murray serves on four U.S. Senate Committees and is the first female Senate President Pro Tempore. Her roles include:

Chair of U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations
Senator Murray is also Chair of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies. She also serves on the following subcommittees:

Energy and Water Development
Defense
Homeland Security
Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies
Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies
U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP)
U.S. Senate Committee on the Budget
U.S. Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs

Born October 11, 1950, Patricia Lynn Murray (Johns, née) is an American politician and teacher who has been President pro tempore of the United States Senate since 2023. Senator Murray has held the senior U.S. Senate seat from Washington since 1993, and was a member of the Washington State Senate from 1989 to 1993. An individual of the Democratic Party, Murray became the first female U.S. senator from Washington and the first female in American history to achieve the position of President pro tempore.

Growing up in Bothell, Washington, Murray went on to receive a degree in physical education from Washington State University. Once out of college, she took a job as a pre-school teacher and then as a parenting teacher at Shoreline Community College. With a long-standing passion for environmental and educational matters, she decided to run for the Washington State Senate in 1988 and managed to defeat two-term incumbent Bill Kiskaddon. After serving in the Senate for one term, Murray campaigned for a seat in the U.S. Senate in 1992 and has been re-elected five times since then, most recently in 2022.

Since 2001, Senator Murray has been part of the party leadership, which included being the chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, the Democratic Conference secretary, and the assistant Democratic leader. Before these roles, she held the chairmanship of the Veterans’ Affairs, Budget, and Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committees. In 2013, the Senator attained national recognition when she and Republican representative Paul Ryan proposed a two-year bipartisan budget, known as the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013. Presently, Murray is the fourth most senior Senator, the second longest-serving woman in the Senate, and the most seasoned member of Washington’s congressional delegation.

Introduction to Patty Murray’s Early Years & Education

A look into the start of Patty Murray’s life and her education is a must.

Born in Bothell, Washington, Patty Murray was one of seven children. Her father, David L. Johns, had fought in World War II and was awarded a Purple Heart. Her lineage included Welsh, Irish, Scottish, and French-Canadian. When Murray was a teen, her family had to apply for welfare after her father was disabled by multiple sclerosis, having been the manager of a five-and-ten store. During her early years, she attended Saint Brendan Catholic School.

In 1972, Murray was awarded her Bachelor of Arts in physical education from Washington State University.

Early Professional Journey

Murray, a former preschool teacher, was a citizen-lobbyist for environmental and educational issues when a state representative informed her that she was incapable of making a difference because she was “just a mom in tennis shoes”. The phrase stuck, and she used it in her successful campaigns for the Shoreline School District board of directors (1985-89), Washington State Senate (1989-93), and United States Senate (1993-present). Additionally, she was successful in her endeavor to curtail proposed budget cuts for the preschool program.

In 1988, Murray became the victor in a bid to oust two-term Republican state Senator Bill Kiskaddon.

Patty Murray has served as a member of the United States Senate since 1993

Since her election to the United States Senate in 1992, Murray has earned a number of distinctions. In 2023, she was chosen to serve as president pro tempore of the Senate. This appointment makes her the first woman in US history to ever hold this office, and places her third in the US presidential line of succession. Additionally, she is the current chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee. [9] Although Senator Dianne Feinstein (also elected in 1992) was the senior senator of the majority party and the usual holder of this office, she declined the post, leaving Murray to fill the role.

On April 20, 2023, Patty Murray became the 33rd senator to cast 10,000 votes in the Senate and the first woman to do so.

In the 1992 U.S. Senate primary in Washington, the Democratic Party’s Patty Murray won with 318,455 votes (28.32%), while the Republican Party’s Rod Chandler received 228,083 votes (20.28%). Don Bonker, a Democrat, received 208,321 votes (18.52%), while Leo K. Thorsness, a Republican, got 185,498 votes (16.49%). The remaining votes were split among the Republican Tim Hill (128,232 votes, 11.40%), the Democrat Gene D. Hart (15,894 votes, 1.41%), Marshall (11,659 votes, 1.04%), Washington Taxpayers’ William Cassius Goodloe (10,877 votes, 0.97%), the Democrat Jeffery Brian Venezia (7,259 votes, 0.65%), the Independent LaPriel C. Barnes (7,044 votes, 0.63%), and the Socialist Worker’s Mark Severs (3,309 votes, 0.29%), totaling 1,124,631 votes (100.00%).

In the 1992 United States Senate election in Washington, Patty Murray, of the Democratic Party, won with 1,197,973 votes (53.99%), while Rod Chandler, of the Republican Party, received 1,020,829 votes (46.01%), with a total of 2,218,802 votes (100.0%), resulting in the Democratic Party holding the seat.

In 1998, Murray was challenged by Congresswoman Linda Smith, a conservative, independent-minded politician who voted against confirming Newt Gingrich as U.S. House Speaker and opposed same-sex rights. She believed homosexuality was “morally unfit.” Despite Smith’s views, Murray outspent her significantly and was re-elected with 58% of the vote.
