I'll raise your bet and say that I will go to where the cheapest and most disease-ridden hookers work and raw dog them all on the day that happens.

Frankly, after watching him it really seems as if he lacks the mental capacity to be self-aware. Just like a few cons who post here. It’s they just lack something in their mental makeup that allows for self-awareness and compassion for their fellow humans.

I'm still waiting for them to articulate the rationale for supporting DeSantis. I've yet to get a response but these same people will complain their views are being stifled.

I've politely asked for their views for a while and still nothing.

This pretty much fits in with conservative values.
Insure women produce new christians as soon as possible and insure that their focus as children is to produce babies. Not higher education.
By keeping pregnancy high and education levels low, it creates a class dependent on services. By demonizing government and minimizing it's capabilities at the local levels, it creates an opportunity for religious organizations to deliver those services.

Religious organizations are then able to secure a footing in these communities, taking advantage of a steady flow of these people and create power structure filled with unelected figureheads and we are right back to where were back in ancient Europe.

Where idiots and psycho can sling bull shit under the umbrella of ancient Arab folk tales.

As long as they are not minorities and identify enough as Christian where they can be relied on to repeat talk points then this is CPAC\GOP approved.

I commented on this in another thread. I also stated I wish the children involved in this the best, and that includes inevitably the Boebert family. I congratulate her becoming a grandmother.

If one is not reactionary and self-aware, they will see it's the hypocrisy and strait up bullshit of the public figure that is being called out with the very public statements she has made to others and the messages she wants sent.

Boebert at CPAC called to cut funding to schools that provide comprehensive sex education because there are schools “that are teaching worse than just gender ideology.”


“They have comprehensive sex ed. They’re teaching kids how to have and enjoy sex, and even same-sex sex, how to pleasure themselves,” she said. “This is not something elementary students should learn, nor any student in a public school…These are the things that we need to go after and cut their funding.”

Then there's this where she has in the past espoused:


Boebert has long since stopped simply complaining about sex-ed in schools. She has lamented that white people should be having more babies for fear of being “replaced” by non-whites. So, a teen pregnancy might have been encouraged by her, who knows. Maybe the Boeberts view this teen pregnancy as a “gift from God” or maybe it was a drunken accident within a family that seems famous for such behaviors.

Now .... Pointing at the chickens coming home to roost for Boebert is like pointing at the chickens coming home to roost for anyone whose cultural programming is leading to (un)expected results. Which is an important thing to point out when the person is a legislator who wants to impose her own family’s prescription on the rest of us by her public statements on what she wants done to others. Because the Republican prescription for parenting, for them and for us, is abstinence-only sex education and no access to birth control for teens.

Abstinence-only education didn’t work in the Boebert family. Stigmatizing premarital sex didn’t work in the Boebert family. Restricting access to sexual education didn’t work in the Boebert family. We assume she did these things, because that’s what she preaches, but of course it’s also likely that she did no parenting at all. So before she tries to legislate her “approach” to the rest of us, she needs to address the fact that it failed - or was not practiced - in her own family. Or alternately, admit that reducing teen pregnancy isn’t the point of any of this. We don’t know exactly what her personal parenting strategy was for preventing teen pregnancy, but we do know that it did not prevent a teen pregnancy in her own family, which means she’s going to be called out when she dictates such strategies to anyone else.

So basically Make America West Virginia Again.

I'll go ahead and guess that if the son does espouse those conservative values, they went out the window when he got his first hand full of boob.
I'll also guess that mom wasn't promoting a sexual relationship to the kids.

I get it. I have 2 daughters, both teenage (although my oldest daughter turns 20 next month). If they get pregnant as teens, I really hope not to have a bunch of busybodies asking me what I did and I didn’t teach them. ESPECIALLY a Christian conservative public figure/US Congresswoman who has a teen pregnancy in her own family and is trying to legislate abstinence-only sex education and less access to birth control.

If my daughters become pregnant, My fundy christian conservative in-laws would attribute it to me and my wife's agnosticism. They currently think we are hell bound because we don’t go to church and practice Christianity. And so they assume our girls are going to be wayward, lacking a moral compass, susceptible to sexual temptation and debauchery. The much more charitable possibility that our daughters were being like regular teenagers and just screwed up the birth control would not occur to them. My oldest daughter had a very scary 2 month long stalking incident with a former boyfriend who couldn't move on from the breakup. It scared her into being very cautious of who she gets sexually active with. Because she confided in us this was not the case before the stalking situation. She is also Bi-sexual.

If your freinds/in-laws/public figure confronted you with all of these judgments of you and your unwed pregnant child, and you happened to know that they also had an unwed pregnant child at home, would you be out of bounds to point this fact out to them? Or would you just sort of sit there and let them judge you for doing the same thing they’re doing?

Wouldn't the answer lay in Boebert's actions? Has she taken people to task for the actions of their children? I honestly don't know the answer to that.

And if you honestly DID know the answer, would/could you honestly answer the question? Or would you continue feigning ignorance in order to hide shitty biases, like most other questions posed to you?

Of course, you - "honestly don't know the answer to that". Nobody here knows the answer to that unless she has done it on a hot mike or camera. We have the off camera Boebert and the public on camera Boebert. We have the Private citizen Boebert who might be more inclined to be more honest about how she really feels, and we have the public grifter Boebert who says anything if it elevates her position of power with her base. Your a smart guy, You most likely knew the answer to your own question.
