    So does being elected to Congress somehow mysteriously transform somebody who was previously a monstrous fucking harpy into somebody we should all respect?

    Because, I have to say, in my experience people normally become worse once they're elected.

    I was only joking

            “Since elected” seems like a bit of special pleading, doesn’t it?

            No, it isnt.

            I want you to consider some of the things said or done by Omar, AOC, Sheila Jackson Lee, Bang -a-Wang and others, who have not had any committee assignments taken away.

            Greene has not done anything since she has been sworn in, that should generate the media attention or the rise of Cancel Culture in the House. It's unfair and quite simply, un-American.

              No, see, before she was elected she was crazier than a brickhouse rat, but when she won the seat she got sane. It's like a miraculous healing. It's like sexual healing, except instead of sexual it's electionual.

                    “Jews control the world” theories don’t have a benign history.

                    Maybe they’ll be mollified if Republicans only elect people that agree to stop advancing such theories after they’re elected.

                    You were warned.

                          Yes. That was my apparently poorly stated point.

                                    I probably don't agree with whatever ideas are being said by whatever people you are quoting. Get specific or get lost, or, better yet, get better friends.

                                        Your choice, Horace. Your choice.

                                        If it wasn't obvious till now, I really value you.
