Lunabell
(6,159 posts)She's only sorry it was caught on video. Wake up, Lauren. It's the 21st century and video is EVERYWHERE!! Plus, her date's conduct of feeling up her breast in public is hardly a "family value". WWJD? He damn sure wouldn't fondle a woman's breast in public. GOP: hypocrites as usual.

(47,967 posts)She does not have the mastery of the English language to write such an apology, though it sounds like she was channeling Ronald Reagan, "My heart tells me I was not vaping, but my mind and the evidence tell me otherwise".

(13,753 posts)is chickenshit for someone with her views. Was the boyfriend taking hits? If she was and he wasn't, that might be a clue. She's addicted to nicotine and he's not. Of course, maybe he's not s toner and she is, but it usually doesn't work that way.

She has no business sitting in the same chamber as Lauren Underwood. She doesn't have her polish, grace, accomplishments, or character.
For me - It's about putting these garbage people in their place.
bdamomma
(64,038 posts)Her opponent Mr. Frisch is going to get a donation from me.
ShazzieB
(16,799 posts)I could make a long list of people she has no business sitting in the same chamber with, but I'll sore my fingers the typing and let you all use your imaginations.Seriously, there are tons of people in the House whose shoes Bobo is not fit to polish. (And some others she fits right in with, unfortunately.) It's funny, isn't it, how most of the former are Democrats and most (if not all) of the latter are Republicans?
JustAnotherGen
(32,200 posts)Underwood just dies her job and doesn't embarrass herself or her party.
I hope she's in Fed Gov for a long time. I want her in charge when I'm elderly.

(3,174 posts)Whoever wrote this knows how to put together a complete sentence and knows how to convey tone.
Boebert herself would have doubled down and said, "Yeah I did it. Want to make something out of it, snowflake??"
Interesting that she refers to herself as a "private citizen." Nope - you're not. While you are in elected office, you are NEVER a private citizen, whether you claim to be or not.

utahguy925
(2 posts)I agree, there is no way she wrote that piece. She doesn't have the corn in her head to come up with that.
Rebl2
(13,701 posts)her head. Thats a new one for me. No way she wrote this. She has never come across as humble in what I have seen of her. She acts more like a bratty teen to me.

(62,036 posts)Maybe not crisis communications quality, but likely a staffer.
HootieMcBoob
(3,823 posts)That she called the pregnant woman sitting behind her who asked her to stop vaping a miserable human being. Or that she and her date were blatantly groping each other in public!
It really blows my mind that this person was actually elected to the House of Representatives.
LeftInTX
(26,040 posts)I recently saw some pretty shockingly bad PDA in the line at Dollar Tree. I really thought they were gonna "go all the way" in line.
These days, I don't think the public cares too much about all that....After all it was heterosexual stuff and pretty much within the realm of normal, so it will be OK with Christian voters. ("I'm just a normal human, with "normal" desires".)
The only thing was that it was in a theater. Gotta wonder though: "What do others do at the theater"?

(26,040 posts)Her past was well-known before she was elected. I don't think they care too much about the groping.
The rudeness to the pregnant woman is a different story. We will see.

On the brighter side, she got to hand select her replacement.
Im with you though, this made a mockery of an artsy musical. If it would have happened at a showing of The Sound of Freedom she would have been picking up her things off of the Capitol grounds by now.

vlyons
(10,252 posts)and what's she doing carrying a vape into a theater? Let me guess. She equated it with being home watching a movie on TV.
What I see is a woman with no self-control over body, speech, and mind.

(13,616 posts)As far as apologies go, especially GOP ones, this factually sounded somewhat sincere in that she accepted responsibility and admitted she was wrong. Compare this to a Trump apology.

second, I have been extremely excited at times in my life, but never have I ever grabbed someone's penis in public as a reaction to that excitement
fuck her, she needs to resign, classless piece of shit that she is
Crowman2009

(91 posts)....the woman is clearly and aggressively off her rocker. To my eye, the real elephant in the room here is how the hell did this nut case scrape up enough mouth-breathing voters to get herself elected to the US House of Representatives?? I mean WTF????
Maybe it's finally time to move to a small town the south of France?? C'est la vie....
