Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
Off Topic
Sadly, we have depended entirely on the good sense of voters to "vet" elected officials. As imperfect and as much as we got some real doozies elected to Congress prior to 2016, at least we used to have Presidents and a majority of the House and Senate that could have passed a background check. Or at least come close to passing a background check. Now, all bets are off. The thug that was elected president in 2016 turned a large majority of one party's voters into a cult that doesn't give a rat's ass about whether they are sending subversive anti-Americans to run our country. Sending subversive anti-Americans to run our country is pretty much what that segment of voters actually wants now.
There's a lot of things that need to change. One specifically? Police brutality.

Ladies and gentlemen, and everyone else, I give you the self professed most effective member of Congress with her scathing unmasking of the Green New Deal.

Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
I recently reactivated my Facebook after being off it for six or seven years or so. It's giving me reminders of posts twelve years ago vowing to stop getting in arguments with idiots because they'll just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. I'm getting better at staying out of it, but it's a constant battle.
That said, I'd love to talk to mtg. I'd do it for free, but definitely for $1M. Not to argue with her, what's the point? Just to try and glean some insight, any insight, into how her brain works and how she functions, straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
She has certainly tried to earn her bona fides as a believeeeeer by subscribing to a number of CT's, and acting like a crazy fool. But, she may be pure asshole through and through, and found a way to make a living by getting people to elect her to office.raison de arizona wrote: ↑Fri Sep 24, 2021 1:11 pm

Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
The "most effective representative" has introduced 15 bills since she darkened the doorstep of the American people. None have gone past introduced and sent to committee. Out of those 15, 4 were to impeach Biden, 2 to kick Maxine Waters off her committee, one to fire Fauci, 2 sex toy, er gun worship protection acts, and some other stupid stuff.
Effective indeed but most of the true work happens committee so she is... oh.. never mind.

She's "effective", eh?

Greene is fond of saying that the "Democrat" Party is the party of the Ku Klux Klan, so that may actually offend her.
In other words-

She is the most effective member of the Sedition Caucus — she has more people talking about her than Boebert or Ashley Madison or whatever his name is. How often do we talk about Jordan or Gohmert and their elk anymore?
