(Sidebar: For a variety of reasons, it’s been a while since I posted a dedicated article.  But I’m going to try to get back in the swing of things.)

We can always count on MTG “Miss Malaprop” Greene to supply us with some comic relief.  She has a long list of Tweets and comments showcasing her ignorance masquerading as malaprops, that have Americans “quacking” up.  Let’s backup a bit to enjoy some of her previous zany offerings.

Who can forget when she accused Speaker Pelosi of “wonton” killings by deploying her own secret “gazpacho police force” in a chilling and ruthless “soup d’é·tat”.

Then there’s the time MTG actually said:

“… Bill Gates wants you to eat this fake meat that grows in a peach tree dish.  So you’ll probably get a little zap inside your body that’ll say ‘No, don’t eat a real cheeseburger, you need to eat the fake burger.’”

Bill had a pithy reply to MTG:

One of her lesser-known comments was when she declared an imminent “title wave of truth”

There are few things that have gotten MTG as incensed as how she thinks Pres. Biden’s Dept. of Justice has “mistreated” the seditious traitors who stormed our Capitol on 1/6/21.  She shared her thoughts (such as they are) in a speech on the House floor when she had the Chamber called to “odor” so she could add her two “scents” worth:

The over 800 people who have been arrested and charged for the events on January 6” because “their due process rights are being so fragrantly and horrifically violated….”

If it weren’t such a fragrant flagrant violation of our nation’s laws, it’d be funny when MTG sent a text to Mark Meadows just three days before Biden’s inauguration telling him that Trump declare should “Marshall” law:

“In our private chat with only Members, several are saying the only way to save our Republic is for Trump to call for Marshall law,” Greene texted [Mark] Meadows….”

In her most recent malaprop, MTG makes a “fowl” claim about tabulating the votes in our last election:

This begs the questions:

[1] Why do you think fellow Americans are your “enemy”?

And …

[2] Why the HELL are ducks wearing boots in the first place?

If you wanted to cut her some slack and blame it on AutoCorrect changing “quaking” to “quacking” – someone checked … it doesn’t:

Of course, the Twitterverse felt the need to respond about our feathered friends “quacking in their boots”

 

 

 

I think this Tweet has a suggestion for MTG that we could all get behind:

And this has a nice summary of a few of her malaprops:

Today I’m going to go with the low-hanging fruit – especially since there’s such an abundant crop to pick!  Most will slant humorous, but a few have a serious message.

We all got a chuckle when Ted Cruz was pilloried for his flight to Cancún during the winter storm that ravaged Texas.  Ted had to slink back home with his tail tucked between his legs – but sporting a brand new hairdo!

Gov. Abbott rightfully earned FOUR Pinocchios for his mendacious claim that frozen wind turbines were the cause of Texas’ travails.

On a serious note, the question we face as a nation is this:  Can a country survive if it bases its decisions on lies?

Of course, we all realize that there is more than one side to any issue.  But republicans never seem to find a side that has even a kernel of truth to it.

I mean, doesn’t it seem odd how wind turbines “froze” in Texas – but did just fine in frigid Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota and Norway?

Texas Republicans: “I’ll vote for Democrats when hell freezes over” 

Mother Nature: “Deal!”

Twitter had a few observations of the Cruz Cancún fiasco:

 

 

 

 

 

How about closing the fun part with a lively song:

 

And on another serious note, Julián Castro had a fantastic Spot-On “Take Home” Message valid at any time – but particularly when a city, state or nation is faced with a crisis:

“Don’t ever put people in charge of government who don’t believe in government.”

A huge “THANK YOU!” to Retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré for calling Josh Hawley a “Little Piece Of Sh*t” which ran as a chyron on Tfucker (the “T” is silent) Carlson’s show while Hawley was speaking.

“This little piece of sh*t with his Yale law degree should be run out of DC and Disbarred ASAP,” Honoré wrote of Hawley in a since-deleted tweet on Jan. 12.

 

Last and always least, MTG Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to block the Equality Act with language that was (while certainly in character for Greene) particularly vile and hurtful to Rep. Marie Newman whose daughter is transgender.

So Rep. Newman did what any proud mother would do – supported her daughter.

Being the petty little _____ (fill-in the blank with your own X-rated epithet), MTG tried to retaliate using her faux “christianity” …

But Twitter was having none of it!

(To understand a few of these, you should know that MTG openly and knowingly cheated on her husband with a tantric sex cult guru and at least one other male at the same time, and numerous times.)

SORRY – I don’t know how to get rid of the lead “Blank” source Tweet

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was inspired to create my own sign, but since I don’t belong to Twitter I’ll have to be content to post it here.

So while I’ve lost a great source for mocking (ByeDon!), it looks like Cruz, Hawley and Greene will be picking up the slack!
