I'm glad she scrapped the plan, but, IMHO, that doesn't let her off the hook.

Besides, it probably has had the desired affect of appealing to her racist, vile constituents. Now, she can claim that her idea was "cancelled" by the libs and the deep state.
And yet I think you are being to kind to her. I don't believe they have scrapped the plan. I don't believe there will be no vile racist caucus.

Margie Q is uneducated and, what is worse, stupid. She does not know that words actually have real meanings beyond the way she uses them to abuse and gain power.

They'll be back, with what they think are better words.

You're probably right. She has said that she never intended to launch anything, and that the document that was leaked was just an idea being kicked around. This is probably a lie.

But, yeah, they will quietly organize a version of the caucus with a less offensive name, and without the reference to supporting "anglo-saxon" values. But the result will be the same.

Turns out she doesn’t know the Anglo Saxons weren’t the same as the Normans. :roll:

Margarine raises a lot of money off these stunts, as does Boebert, et alia.

Does anybody else automatically think of Lorena Bobbitt when Lauren Boebert’s name comes up? I can’t help myself. :bag:

I saw an interview with Lorena Bobbet once on a late night talk show. She was very sweet and a little shy. I liked her a lot. What the heck that ass did to drive that woman into assaulting a deadly weapon can only be imagined.
