Yeap, that’s Texas Republican congressman Randy Neugebauer berating a park ranger for enforcing the government shutdown he and his Teaparty pals ran on and created. Complete with flag and lapel pin identifying him as a patriot. You see how quickly he bravely ran away when his scam was exposed by another patron of the memorial.
I’m curious: what authority does a park ranger have in enforcing the closure? Could she have pulled a firearm and told him, in no uncertain terms, that the park was closed by order of the Federal Government and that he was to leave immediately or else?
FSM knows, these privileged, ignorant Republican ass-wipes deserve such treatment.

You could try calling although:
DC office voice mail full
Abilene office gets errors likely full
Big Springs Office erros likely full voice mail
Lubbock office: Hung up on by staff before I could say anything, likely due to non – Texas phone number
Called back left scathing voice mail
that ranger ought to get some major kudos from her boss for being professional in the face of extreme assholery.
as if there weren’t enough reasons to be embarrassed about living in TX.

Lord, what an asshole! He’s causing the problem and SHE should be ashamed?
@3: I feel bad for Texans. I’m sure the majority of them aren’t this dumb. At least I was sure until I remembered they elected Ted Cruz statewide.

Neugebauer’s response:
He said, “My beef was not with the Parks Ranger. My beef is with the Parks Department and this president, that they would deny these American heroes access to the World War II memorial.”
I saw this last night on Maddow. What a shit stain this guy is. I’m not even sure how to express my disgust.

In the video he said the Park Service should be ashamed.
The woman said “I’m not ashamed.”
Neugebauer said, “You should be.”
Would he have been as rude and condescending were the park ranger a man?
It’s the same old story. Yogi just got caught stealing and was forced to return the picnic basket.
Fwiw: Vice-Pres Joe Biden called the ranger that Neugebauer crapped on and told her, “I’m proud of you.”
