A Renegade in Republican Circles

The Democrat Party certainly has many nutty people in its 

ranks but they do not have a monopoly on nuts and nuttiness.

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has been in the 

headlines for many off the wall utterances and activities,

including getting chummy with QAnon, a truly off the wall

political group whose members believe, among other 

wacky things, that a cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedo-

philes operate a worldwide child sex trafficking ring

which has also conspired against President Trump while

he was in office. You read all that right, my grand readers;

as Robert Ripley of Believe It or Not! fame said, "Truth is 

stranger than fiction". The truth here is that this group 

actually believes and spreads this horrible nonsense,

and Rep. Greene is a sympathizer. 

Greene's own deranged comments on whatever include

her statement in an interview with Christian Broadcasting 

Network's David Brody in which she likened House Speaker

Nancy Pelosi's decision to have House members continue to

wear protective masks on the chamber floor to the Nazi's

treatment of the Jews during the Holocaust (?!?!?!?!?!).

This is not only evil, but insane to openly claim. Your favorite

Peasant is no fan of Pelosi, but to the best of my knowledge 

she has never sent Jews, nor anyone else, to any gas chambers.

What Greene said about Pelosi was so far beyond slanderous

and malicious that I have no appropriate adjective for 

Greene's horrible verbal attack.

House Minority leader Kevin McCarthy responded to these 

vile, inflammatory words thus: "Let me be clear: the House 

Republican Conference condemns this language." 

A good reaction, but hopefully a suitable punishment such

as censure will be a follow-up, especially if any more such

garbage spews from Greene. 

Folks, people like Rep. Greene we don't need, and surely don't

want, in the Republican Party nor anywhere in the conservative

movement. She adds nothing positive, nothing helpful in the least.

It would be positive and helpful if she would simply resign her 

seat in the House and find other, different work, and without 

delay.

If we are going to retake the House and Senate next year, and the 

White House in 2024, we must show a responsible and united front

for the people to rally with. We cannot let lunatics speak nor act 

for us. Your forthright Peasant can't put it more plainly. We can't

draw a positive contrast with the Democrats if we allow people 

like Rep. Greene to spew their bile.
