Messaging is everything in politics, unless you happen to be Marsha Blackburn, the antigay, far-right U.S. senator from Tennessee who seems to hate proof reading as much as she hates hairbrushes.
Fresh off of misquoting the constitution, Blackburn is back on Twitter claiming her state is in favor of a wall on its souther border. You know, to keep all those folks from Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina from storming Dollywood.
“Tennesseans want a wall on our southern border,” Blackburn tweeted.
Tennesseans want a wall on our southern border.

The responses have been top-notch:
How about we take this to the next level?

What If Marsha Blackburn is just doing Andy Kaufman like bit? Or is she really that dumb?

Can we build a wall around Tennessee and keep Marsha and all the other right wing Tennesseans in?

When reached for comment, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia said “LOL. Go brush you hair, Magellan.” https://t.co/hCMTeFagVi pic.twitter.com/NpSVbEuy2t

Given the sheer amount of stupidity Republicans are pushing on the state, I’m surprised Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia haven’t already built one there themselves. https://t.co/Fb52urcAy9

Do these right wing politicians suffer from random manufactured outrages and tweet out whatever sh*t comes to their mind? Like what precipitated this tweet yesterday at 3:44pm? Twitter is not the Boomer’s friend considering all the cringe tweets that come out from these people.

Is she a woman?
Old Flint
I long since quit “wondering” if she is that dumb. What would be strange is if you doubted it.

Exactly. It’s similar to these people who keep claiming that Trump/his brand of Republicans(which now includes most of them) have done something so deplorable that they set the bar “even low”. There was never a bar with them to begin with.

Marsha is probably hearing about these negative tweets to her perfectly reasonable statement and wondering what the fuss is about. When you are dumb it’s really hard to understand why people think you’re dumb.
DBMC
I can understand wanting to keep people from those states out.
Max
is she afraid of water, shampoo, and flea powder?

The only way these people know to unite is by their mutual hatred of others.

I’ve sent an urgent message to the FBI that the Lindbergh baby can be found in the rat’s nest atop her head!

Fried brain under that fried hair! Someone should get her a Davy Crockett coonskin hat. Maybe that would improve her looks a bit. Maybe not.
Jaquelope
Why subject a poor, defenseless raccoon to that? The very thought makes me shudder.
Kit McCollum
Yes, she really is that stupid.
THAT Steve
I think she looks better with the ‘just got plowed’ hair

the last time a “church-lady” like her opened her pie hole about gays her name was anita bryant and she kept getting banana-hammock cream pies thrown in her face. marsha blackburn is the new anita bryant.
