The Republican congresswoman said “while none of my actions or words as a private citizen that night were intended to be malicious or meant to cause harm, the reality is they did and I regret that”
Don't sell yourself short, queen. I think you nailed your values spot on.
She definitely nailed something in that theater.
HOLY CRAP you're not kidding (vaguely NSFW)
she’s provided so much material for twitter today, this guy has been on a roll
meanwhile, i respect it
Yooooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean, this but for real
I got absolutely no problem with two people getting frisky in a theater.
My problem is her private values not matching her public values.
In some contexts yes... honestly for me I have a problem with two people getting frisky to that level in a packed theater while a play is going on that people came there to see. I don't think they should go to jail or anything but I would definitely want them kicked out, and, it seems like they'd be happier in a hotel or something anyway, so win-win.
💀💀💀 this is why I’m still on twitter
I don't think I've ever seen this at a drag show.
I've seen a massive black man in a lovely dress and heels pick up a bachelorette, position her so she's straddling him while he's still standing, and vigorously dry-hump her in time with the music while continuing to sing the song at the top of his lungs, while her friends all cheered. I found that far less off-putting than this titty fondle.
Look at the people sitting right next to them watching the show. This is legitimately one of the most uncouth things I've ever seen.
In context, that does seem less offensive.
Yep. The people at a show like that are 1) consenting adults, who 2) went to the show on purpose, and 3) didn't bring their kids.
No one in the audience at a kid-friendly Beetlejuice showing went there to watch Bobo get her tits fondled while she blows vape smoke in people's faces.
What a revolting idiot.
Anyone got a mirror, id rather not to log into reddit to see it
What specifically is she apologizing for?
Blowing a giant vape cloud in on someone’s head, smoking in front of a pregnant woman, jacking off a guy in public, dancing in a theater where everyone is sitting, flipping off the ushers, or lying about all of that stuff because she thought it wasn’t on camera?
Most people would be getting prosecuted for this
She also had a boob out, so there ought to be an indecent exposure charge if nothing else.
Children there too. Put her on a list like her husband.
Can we add the possibility of snorting a mile of coke acting like that? Surely coke was involved. I'm not covering for her actions but ALL THAT (gesturing widely) has definite coke energy.
My thought was ecstasy, especially with all the sexual contact. Coke needs maintenance to keep the high good, and a play would be too long for that. Ecstasy would have enough leg for the whole evening.
what values?
"Do whatever you want, as long as you get away with it."
Eh, she nailed half of that. Gotta count for something!
Hate and fear mongering.
“I’m sorry I got caught”
Absolutely. Before the video, she lied about it and downplayed it and accused others about falsifying the accusations. Suddenly there's video and now she "apologizes" (she didn't really, it was a fake apology, she didn't say she's sorry for what she did, she basic said she's sorry others found it offensive, that's not an apology) and she's entirely quiet on all the lying she did beforehand about saying it was overblown.
She didn't even really say she was sorry others found it offensive, it came off as saying she was sorry she got caught. I suppose that shouldn't be surprising given the GQP. None of them have any shame and are only "sorry" when they get caught.
Republican voters need to stop littering our politics with their trash.
Have you seen some of those school board videos? This is representative democracy in practice.
I hate that that is the truth of the matter. I will now go back to living in my carefully curated bubbke.
Good luck with that...
How to describe the Boebert video. A sampling
NYT: " touching and carrying on with her date"
POLITICO: "appears to show Boebert and her male companion fondling each other sexually"
NYP: "groped ‘Beetlejuice’ date in heavy-petting session"
GUARDIAN: "eagerly groping each other"
SALON: "fiddling with each other's privates"
Boobert got her hooters honked while she gave him the ole over the trouser arouser
I believe a salute is in order for this!
We're Honkers, we're better than Hooters...
...
Do the honk thing.
Where's Sarah Milligan when you need her?
We used to call that a Levi's special back in college
Fox news: Lauren Boebert removed from ‘Beetlejuice’ performance in Colorado after laughing and singing loudly
Lol, their article is the most obvious case of burying the lede I've ever seen. No mention of the video until the last paragraph where it describes as "touching her partner"
Yeah, at least Bill Clinton had a room.
That room was the Oval Office at one point, but okay.
A hallway adjacent to the Oval Office.
Which even as a downplay of her actions is unforgivable. You don't sing loudly during a performance, you're the audience.
I'm sorry I thought this was America!?
Translation:
Honestly tho, how can you forget that you were vaping and a pregnant lady behind you was directly complaining to you about it? Didn't remember, my ass. (edit: and your date offers this pregnant lady an alcoholic drink. Can see why he's into her, they are both really dumb.)
Lot of politicians suffer from amnesia, especially if they are in a hearing.
Don't forget the handjobs in public places.
or being questioned by law enforcement
The staff even warned her about her behaviour. Didn't change.
That’s the story of her political career. Being wanted about her behavior, and not changing it.
It was probably weed vape
"I'm so sorry, I have a low tolerance level."
yeah, no shit
I hate everything about her, but I'm sure she's a nutter in the sack.
I don’t know, she was groomed straight out of high school into her molester’s bed. She strikes me as enthusiastic but otherwise very awkward.
That's my type.
Groomed? Or enthusiastic and awkward?
Enthusiastic and awkward. But it was mostly a joke at my own expense because I used to be an enthusiastic and awkward guy who absolutely adored enthusiastic and awkward women I thought I could "fix".
I figured. 😜
I wouldn't touch that with someone else's 10' pole.
Based on the video, it looked like both of them were just kind of mashing stuff around. I wouldn't sleep with her or her date.
And I could actually get into all the degrading things I normally have no interest in, because I could view her like most Republicans view all women.
She would be an excellent hate fuck
The sack over her head
Ben Franklin would approve
Her values is calling black people the n word, underaged marriage, bribery, and whatever culture war is going on that week.
She went on to say she values her ability to not get caught on video.
"I'm sorry that I didn't know there was video evidence."
I guess dude didn't finish... some values!
👏LOCK👏HER👏UP👏LOCK👏HER👏UP👏
Seriously! She exposed herself and performed a sex act in front of children. She is an actual sexual predator and needs to be behind bars, full stop.
I wonder what would happen if we called the local PD with tips about a sexual predator and sent them the video.
Dust off the old firing squad boys
I’m just saying, this lady could have gone into porn, made a killing, kept her mouth shut, and been perfectly fine.
But she wanted power without understanding what that entails.
Or wide open, if ya catch my my drift
Ayoooo
Falling short of ones values is only possible if you actually have values. Which she doesn't.
" I'm sorry I'm an asshole!"
“No, you are not. You are sorry that you were caught on tape!”
How does one fall short of something that is infinitely lacking in stature?
She only values one thing: not getting caught.
Sigh. Her star is falling and she needs the publicity to stay relevant. I think she got booted out of some Nazi caucus or such. This "incident" was planned and she is getting what she wants. Indian chuds on /pol/ have a mummy fetish for her.
I think it was the other Psycho Barby that got booted out of the Nazi caucus.
Where's the OnlyFans, Lauren, I'm like 80% sure you've got one somewhere
Getting warmer...

YES, there truly is hope!
The author misunderstood her actual statement because of her slurring. What she actually said was, "I simply fell short on my vape-juice".
Please, your values are appallingly obvious lol
They're hanging right out there it seems like.
“…fell short of
hiding my realvalues.”How does one fall short of nothing?
Politicians poor behavior is always swept under the rug. We should demand better behavior from all elected officials.
Jacking a guy off in a theater is just short.
Where's the porn actress equivalent for her, like Sarah Palin had?
How can she fall short of something she doesn't have?
This twat regrets nothing.
Her values where in that guys pants and people wouldn't even give her a chance to find them.
What does any of that have to do with tightening spending in Washington DC? How will tightening spending help any of that?
I would assume a republican apologizing is problematic to the party.
Omg americans should have more escorts in their Parliament. #MAGA
Goddamn I read somewhere that she was an escort. Is it true? Hahahaha thats peak American stuff where a prostitute becomes a member of congress! Love it! Reminds me of an episode from south park. Bro someone find the rate she was going for during her escort days.
I have zero problems with a prostitute becoming a congressperson.
I do have a problem with a hateful, hypocritical piece of shit doing so.
Nice bro. We need more people like you. I love prostitutes too. Lisa Ann for President !!
It’s at best unproven. The claim comes from an outfit that digs dirt on their opponents- and many of the other claims they made about her had to be retracted outright.
Edit: to the idiot that downvoted me- there’s enough bullshit to be angry about when it comes to Boebert, and it’s certainly fun to imagine she was a hooker. But there is zero evidence. it comes from the muckraker’s super pac whose own boss admits their work was “sloppy”.
Pushing these claims is kind of like what republicans do. Be better than that.
Hey. She can see her wrong behavior and apologize afterall...
For lying about vaping.
She didn’t apologize for jerking off her date and getting grouped in full view of kids.
I didn't say she would apologize for the big stuff.
I'm saying she can apologize, she just won't for the big stuff.
I'm personally more focused on her forcing abstinence only education while her son ruined a young girl's life.
She doesn’t see that as ruined. She sees that as forcing that young girl to follow in her footsteps. Which in her deeply narcissistic mind… is a favor.
She knows abstinence-only doesn’t work from her own experience, that she probably taught it to her son… and still espouses it… well, there’s a lot of “fucked up” surrounding her.
I dont disagree with you buddy.
She is deeply fucked in the head (and not only the head, as it lays).
The damage she has done is treasonous in my opinion.
But that's par for the course in America. Both parties.
Fucking fuck, if only Bernie stayed independent...
