During the Kavanaugh hearings in Senate, a pack of morons are disturbing proceedings.
Here is one way this Congressman handled the situation:
About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

Hahahaha! That was so funny and a very smart off the cuff move.
AWESOME JOB!
Small issue… it wasn’t the Kavanaugh hearings, it was the Twitter CFO explaining how magic “algorithms” find truth and the biased people who write them are not influencing them. That small issue away, this video was HILARIOUS. Loved every minute of it and I’m sending it around!
That is TOO funny!
That guy was a great auctioneer. Reminded me of an episode of Storage Wars.
I needed that laugh.
Here In the UK I’ve been catching the confirmation hearings and been gobsmacked at the bush league idiocy of the protesters.
Funny!
God bless him! (I hope there’s a transcript.)
I’d love to see SJWs and feminists attempt to accuse the Congressman of “mansplaining.”
Just checked Google.
The woman is Laura Loomer, an “Alt Right” (i.e. pro-abortion, anti-religious, obsessed with race). I wrongly assumed she was a leftist based on how they usually act.
She wasn’t interrupting Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing (which is taking place in the Senate) but a House Commerce Committee hearing on Twitter. (“The Censorship That Dare Not Speak Its Name!)
Congressman Billy Long of Missouri is a Republican.
Note to leftists, SJWs, and feminists: Your whiny, eager-to-be-accepted conservative (in all their forms) opponents observe and remember your tactics and will eventually copy them.
I thought it was funny she was politely appealing to President Trump, seemed weird.
I loved the auctioneer! That was excellent.
They should be arresting people who pull these stunts and interfere with the people’s business.
We shouldn’t coddle anarchists.
That’s Laura Loomer who recently confronted domestic abuser, Farrakhan loving, America hating, muslim Congressman Keith Ellison who wants to be the Attorney General of Minnesota.
Why is it that we/Conservatives never, never have the smarts to ask them who’s financially supporting them? Answer: probably George Soros. They choose the terms of the confrontation and we always respond with a non-response and we accomplish nothing. These things are totally planned and scripted and somebody on our side should find out who and then we should be “outing” them. They get away with blaming us when it was them who started this nonsense when we let them slaughter Judge Bork back in 1987. There’s nothing funny about it when they have successfully used these tactics in the past.
As a Minnesota farmer, I cannot tell you how much this makes my day!
That was great!
Maybe we can get him a job with the USCCB so at least they will get a good price for their souls.
I’d like to see the protesters get the Gianforte treatment.
Can we pass the hat to cover his legal expenses?
(NON-SEQUITOR: Assault should be when violence is unsolicited, not when a person trespasses, acts like a punk, refuses to leave and eggs-on a confrontation…IMHO under those circumstances, a body slam is a totally appropriate response.)
