Oh, I get it.  Certain rights are in-a'lienable rights.  You can't file a lien against those rights and subsequently foreclose, or pledge those rights as collateral.  Makes total sense to me.

Is it too much to ask that those who represent us in Congress have at least a 9th grade level of vocabulary and reading comprehension?

This country is so weird and fucked up that she will probably sell a lot of books.

Different Trump/Gun Nut/Christian Nationalist organizations will buy thousands of copies each. It's political graft as old as Jim Wright and Newt Gingrich. You may recall that Gingrich used the issue to ruin Wright while he himself had books written under his wife's name to do the same thing.

I bet she's a really good writer!

Probably the #1 GQP grift. Congress critters have campaign accounts fat with PAC and corporate cash, but you can't just buy a lake house with it without those pesky campaign finance violations. So how do you get some of that sweet, sweet cash for personal use? Write a shitty book, have your campaign or a campaign aligned PAC buy a bajillion copies. You get the royalties from the book sales, and the campaign gives them away to donors. Bonus, you might even make the NYT best sellers list if you buy enough, then you can go on OANN as "Congresswoman and best selling author Stupid McStupidface"

not only that, nowadays you can sell more than you print because of e-readers and have a higher margin on the electronic copies!

But then Congress would cease to be representative of our citizenry.

I'm sorry, what?  WTF is the "fake handcuff" angle?
 

Damn she is one stupid individual.

Expand  

I am sure she is referencing AOC holding her hands behind in her back expecting handcuffs when she was arrested at the abortion protest. Now of course she is really really dumb so the reference doesn't land but that's one of the new right wing gotchas.

Whenever I click on this thread,  I was hoping there would be a leaked photo of booberts saggy tits. Then I’m disappointed when there’s not.

similar to the people who clicked on the rush Limbaugh thread for 5 years hoping for a death announcement but we’re then disappointed.

So somehow "arrested" is more noteworthy if cuffs are used?

Damn she is one script-following, stupid individual.

She hit every single one of the GQP talking points in 67 seconds. Impressive.

Not really. That speech was written at a third grade reading level

Maybe I should've put impressive in quotations. She's too stupid to do anything but parrot alt-right fear-mongering bulletpoints.

I love how confident and clever she clearly thinks she is:
 

She keeps saying "Mr. Speaker." Is she addressing McCarthy, like he's the defacto SOTH? Or is it some other dig at Nancy?
