My "WTF?" of the day, republican ditzo congresswoman division...

[Archae]

And my sympathies to anyone who has this ditz as a congresswoman.



Highest-ranking GOP congresswoman accuses the media of "really trying to brainwash America"

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers: "I just feel like the media continues their drumbeat and really trying to brainwash America against some really good people"

HALLIE JACKSON (HOST): And should the president come in front of Congress and testify under oath, as he said he would do?

REP. CATHY MCMORRIS RODGERS (R-WA): I think it would be great to have -- if the president is willing to do that, that's great. It means that he has nothing to hide. And the fact that he wants to come and set the record straight, perhaps the media would get off it. I just feel like the media continues their drumbeat and really trying to brainwash America against some really good people rather than really focusing on the job that we're doing to meet the needs of the American people.

JACKSON: I respectfully disagree with you on that point, Congresswoman, but I appreciate you joining us to talk about a lot of different topics happening over on the Hill. Thank you very much.

1. I wonder who the "really good people" are? They sure aren't in the Trump White House

or GOP Congress.

2. Not my rep, but from my state...

I think she is vulnerable in '18. At least I hope so.

3. The only drumbeat I'm hearing

is that Drumbf is "acting" presidential, this is all normal, and the GOP is silently fucking us all over for the coming decades. Am I hearing that right?

4. Rip Van Rodgers stirs from slumber

How did it get to this horrible point, where the media are trying to brainwash America against some really good people? It's like it just began yesterday, a cloudburst from a clear blue sky!

Two word: Puh. Leeze.
