Boebert kept her mouth shut about the Jewish space lasers, unlike mtg, so she didn’t get kicked off everything. Yet.

Nope
Thomas Jefferson wrote:Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State.

It's like Ron Howard should be following Boebert around narrating in his Arrested Development voice after she says it, "In fact, that was not true."

Eh, we need something a little stronger. Like someone following her around slapping her with a fish every time.

I have yet to see these tools attend church. Where and when do you worship, Bobo? Do you pack heat when entering God's house? Are you a disciple of Ray Wylie Hubbard's "Freeway Church of Christ?' (They accept MasterCard!)

FWIW, a lot of the videos of her railing against the separation between church and state were filmed...in churches.

For instance:

Thanks for your legwork, Raison.

I started to watch the video and quickly stopped. It made me nauseous.

The web says that this particular church is in Basalt, Colorado. Basalt is on the road from Glenwood Springs to Aspen. Sorta far away from Rifle/Silt.
Like 50 minutes away.

Both the guy in the video and his wife are the main providers of Scripture at this church.

I mean, yeah, I get that gut response, but I was thinking within the realm of something that would be both funny *and* probably not a chargeable offense. :biggrin:

Speaking for the party... I AM THE LAW!
Rep. Lauren Boebert @RepBoebert wrote: Any Republican Member of Congress that votes with the Dems to ban certain handguns, shotguns, and so called “assault” rifles will automatically disqualify themselves from any position of leadership in the party.

Any member of the public who even admits to knowing a Republican will automatically disqualify themselves from any position higher than assistant dog poop remover at public parks.

See, BoBo, we can all do it.

Congress's stablest genius, Lauren Boebert, appeared on America's finest news network, NewsMax, to tell the world's second-crabbiest shitlord, Sebastian Gorka, that banning assault rifles will lead to Americans eating Fido for dinner.

"If the citizenry in America is disarmed, then we are no longer citizens," Boebert told Gorka, whose suit pocket sported an enormous handkerchief that looked like a crumpled pillowcase. "We are subjects. You know, here in America, we have gourmet treats for puppies. We have these amazing groomers for dogs. Well, in Venezuela, they eat the dogs, and it started because they don't have firearms."

Native Americans ate dogs. Lewis and Clark ate dogs and horses despite having guns. Game was scarce.

Imagine if her district had effective representation.

Foggy would likely state that "effective representation" is far outside Boebert's wheelhouse.

May I suggest, "effective reproduction" as being a far better descriptor for Lil Lauren. :mrgreen:

Does that mean she's against have Romana Didulo as queen of the United States?

Well, my experience was a wee bit different. I grew up on the family cattle ranch in the 1960s.

Horse flesh was put to work. Cattle flesh paid the banker each fall.

I do remember when I was a kid some kerfluffle about selling/eating horsemeat. I don't recall the details, though.
