    This sounds exactly like the kind of sane, balanced person you want having access to firearms:

    Calls Democrats "the enemy" and makes a not-so-subtle call to arms with her reference to "went to battle for a lot less".

    Oh, and she wants a theocracy:

    He'd better hurry up or the Catholics will probably make him freeze the sperm and have it used for IVF. And he'll pay child support on all of them.

    Given the length I am sure it should take about a quarter of the normal time. That is if he can find the tweezers.

    More details on misuse of campaign funds:

    https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/23/politics/lauren-boebert-fec-personal-expenses/index.html

    The mystery payments turned out to have been for her restaurant's rent and utilities.

    Which I guess she needed, because her restaurant is stunningly unsuccessful -- losing hundreds of thousands of dollars a year -- and had liens against it for failure to pay unemployment insurance taxes.

    I'm surprised there haven't been any restaurant employee lawsuits, because I guarantee she is underpaying her employees too.

    Pretty sure this is just to get additional media coverage. Even if she, personally, is that stupid, her social media manager is not.

    That does make some sense. Make a boneheaded mistake, knowing that she'll get mocked by liberals for it, which in turn will get her base all riled up in a "you think you're better than me?" rage.

    Yup, old troll tactic to get your enemies to crosspost your thoughts around filters. At first we misspelled words to get around filters, but then we found tools like to laugh at how we spelled things and would actually repost our entire text under their name so that the people who were trying to ignore us would see what we wrote.

    me: bob's ded mother felched weasel semen out of men for a living.
    bob: (Nothing because he cannot see what I said)
    bob's friend: Did you see where tererun misspelled dead when she said "bob's ded (sic) mother felched weasel semen out of men for a living."
    bob: *sigh* *Shotgun Blast*
    bob's friend: Fuck you Tererun, you made bob kill himself.

    On the one hand, it doesn't matter. On the other hand, does she have to make making fun of her so EASY?

    I love how they used a badly-framed photo of her for that which also tells a story in its own. :lol:

    Accidental? I remember in Tampa a station went to a live shot at the Tampa Zoo where a notoriously obnoxious reporter was standing by. "Now from the Tampa Zoo here's Joe Doakes" and the videographer had a perfectly framed tight shot of a chimpanzee... :spock:

    An american Karen terrorist who brings a gun to the floor of congress is scared of an american muslim carrying a backpack full of her job on an elevator in congress.

    Is it irony or is it allanis?
