The congressmen were surely shocked
To hear the scream “He won’t be mocked!”
It’s not which words they were, but whose:
Such language usually means Ted Cruz.
During the House vote last night, after the vote timer had ticked to zero, but before the vote was called, a House stenographer made her way to the speaker’s microphone and yelled:
Do not be deceived. God shall not be mocked. A House divided cannot stand. He will not be mocked, He will not be mocked, (don’t touch me) He will not be mocked. The greatest deception here, is that this is not one nation under God. It never was. Had it been… it would not have been… No. it would not have been… the Constitution would not have been written by Free Masons… and go against God. You cannot serve two masters. You cannot serve two masters. Praise be to God, Lord Jesus Christ.
After about the first three sentences, she was dragged out escorted out by the Sergeant-at-Arms, yelling the rest as she left.
She is being evaluated at a local hospital. I wish her well.
No word on whether the representatives and senators who use similar language will likewise be evaluated.
The only thing she did wrong was her method of presentation. If she had called a press conference or sat down with Beck before spouting off about God, the Tea Party would be trying to get her elected.
No word on whether the representatives and senators who use similar language will likewise be evaluated.
It was probably the task of recording such language, day after day, year after year, without regard to actual events, that caused this poor stenographer to snap. Insanity can be contagious, especially when it comes from one’s bosses (and stenographers, in particular, have very little control over their work environments, which makes workplace insanity all the more toxic to them). (I don’t remember any such thing happening when Democrats controled the House.)
Dave, I half expect the teatards to do just that anyway.
She’ll just primary one of the so-called moderate Rethugs & get promoted to Representative.
“He will not be mocked!”
Oh yes he will.
So I gather they finally kicked out Michelle Ba—
oh, never mind.
