The left-leaning mainstream media is blasting fake outrage over Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) getting escorted out of a theater with her boyfriend for vaping, taking some video of the performance, and briefly putting her hand in his lap. I’ve never heard of anyone getting kicked out of a theater for something that minor; usually, people get kicked out for things like fights, having sex, and getting really drunk. Remember Pee-wee Herman?
It was dark in the Colorado theater, but strangely, there was an infrared camera directly on Boebert, and even stranger, the video was leaked to the public. In contrast, whenever a video favors Republicans, tons of fake excuses are provided to prevent it from being released. Look at how long it took for the government to release the J6 video surveillance. The high-profile trials of the J6 defendants aren’t being filmed for the public, even though it’s tradition to stream trials like that; everyone older remembers breathlessly watching the O.J. Simpson trial and, more recently, the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard libel trial.
Meanwhile, far worse behavior on the left has been mostly ignored, such as by Democrat Susanna Gibson, who ran for the Virginia House of Delegates and posted sex videos with her husband online and asked for money. Nothing has happened to her; she’s still running, and the Democrats are defending her, in fact, raising money for her off of the scandal.
Boebert apologized for her minor slip-up. In contrast, Gibson, who says she has an open marriage with her husband and offered to film herself and her husband engaging in sodomy in exchange for money from viewers, is not apologizing and is instead blaming whoever released the video.
The left celebrated a topless trans person partying at the White House and a mayor getting spanked at a public event by a drag queen. The late Senator Ted Kennedy got drunk, attempted to cheat on his wife with another woman, then drove his date off a bridge into the water where he left her, and she drowned. He instructed everyone to remain silent about the death, and nothing ever happened to him as his career in the Senate soared.
Compounding the problem is all of the holier-than-thou people on the right piling on. Former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis, who is expected by many to turn on Trump during the Georgia prosecution due to her selling out to the Colorado State Bar last year, said on X that the Colorado GOP needs to primary Boebert. Ellis, who is now supporting Ron DeSantis for president, is known for frequently citing the Bible to defend RINO positions. For example, when she admitted to the Colorado State Bar, she made “misrepresentations” when she said there was fraud in the 2020 election.
The left and its helpful enablers on the right, such as Ellis, like to use Old Testament judgment against Christians while ignoring the New Testament, where Jesus preached forgiveness. It’s somewhat hypocritical, considering if the left doesn’t believe in Biblical principles, why would it use something “made up” and a “fairytale” to judge others? It’s even more hypocritical when you consider the left conveniently ignores one of the few verses that it loves to cherry-pick from the Bible, directly from Jesus, “Judge not, that ye be not judged.” Or Jesus when he said, “You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.”
It’s become pretty amazing watching how moralistic and judgmental the left has become in recent years, considering they love to accuse Christians of being the judgmental ones. The left is more judgmental of Donald Trump’s rumored dalliances with extramarital affairs than the Christian right is since the Christian right preaches forgiveness. The left, which always sounds so silly to those who have studied the Bible extensively, pretends that everyone on the right must be sinless like Jesus, which is blasphemous since the Bible says no human is perfect. Considering approximately 20% of married men in the U.S. have had affairs with their wives, it’s not against the law, and the fact that Trump has never held himself out as a super devout Christian, the condemnation is a joke.
The reality is if a left-wing woman had done what Boebert had done, it wouldn’t have even made the news. Oddly, it wouldn’t have ever left the theater; the video wasn’t racy enough to leak. I suspect either someone working there was a Democratic operative — the arts are heavily dominated by the left — or was pressured or paid by a Democratic operative to leak it.
The Democrats are claiming that Gibson was criticized due to sexism, but Republican men have done far less than that and were viciously attacked. Conservative commentator Dinesh D’Souza, one of the brightest minds today, has been bashed for years by the left for merely sharing a hotel room at a Christian conference with a woman after he and his wife separated.
Boebert was targeted because she has a 98.53% lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union, almost the highest in Congress, and dares to take stands on issues that many Republican members of Congress wouldn’t dare to. Since she won reelection last fall by 546 votes, the left sees her as vulnerable, so they are trying to create controversy.
Boebert apologized, unlike many on the left who have no remorse when they do far worse. But as we all know about the left, they’d have no standards if they didn’t have hypocritical standards.
DR Wills says
Leftists don’t have double standards. They live by their own standards and they expect Conservatives to live up to the ones they profess for themselves. Boebert herself confessed she failed to live up to the standards she avows. This article is embarrassing for its weak-minded attempt to mitigate Boebert’s indiscretion by contrasting her raunchy behavior with someone else’s. FrontPageMag’s editors can surely find more substantive material to publish…
Rachelle says
Spin this anyway you like, Boebert behaved badly. She should have known better. She played right into the hands of those who want her gone, and she stands a good chance of losing her seat in the next election as a result of her stupidity. I like the woman’s politics, I like her outspokenness. But she messed up, and she will probably pay the price. Nobody reads apologies and retractions.
DR Wills says
“Spin” is the best that can be said for this weak-kneed article. Its fawning attempt to mitigate the dishonor of Boebert’s public indiscretion is an embarrassment.
Taylor says
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
What indiscretion? Vaping? Taking a picture? Putting her hand in the guys lap? Did she jerk him off?
At worst, she acted like a 36 year old woman with four kids whose husband cheated on her and who *managed* to find someone to take her on date. She’s SHITTING BRICKS that no man will ever want a serious relationship with her–and she’s right to be very scared on that score. She’s elated, self-conscious, *nervous*–and surprised–and acted like this guys the, maybe, the second or third man she’s ever been on a date with: giddy.
A little more poise might’ve been best, given her political position, but she acted true to form for a woman in her position—and she did nothing that was actually wrong. She didn’t take it up the ass for ten tokens on the internet?
The Democrats–who like a self-described “slut” like Gibson cause she justifies their behavior and desires–are rank hypocrites.
You, Dr., write like a bow-tie wearing prude who doesn’t know squat about how the world a single 36 yr old grandma and mother of four like Boebert inhabits works. Rochelle writes like Israel might lose a reliable vote in Congress.
I expect you to post this, Rachel.
Rachelle says
Try spelling my name correctly. It might just earn you a smidgen of credibility.
Miranda Rose Smith says
“20% of married men in the U.S. have had affairsWTH THEIR WIVES?”
Taylor says
It’s a tiepoe. You got on Daniels case yesterday for some piddling grammatical error. Chill. Of course, more than 20% of married cheat on their husbands, FYI.
Laura says
Tiepoe, looks like spelling is recreational for you. How about typo.
T says
You understood the meaning, right? You definitely missed my point.
Phil Hartmark says
A public figure should know better and not engage in such activity. Boebert is a cartoon conservative… wind her up and set her loose to make all the right canned statements. I’m sorry but she is not apologetic for what she did as evidenced by her “do you know who I am” defense. Bad behavior is bad behavior.
Tory says
Oh, man up and grow up. This is hardly the stuff of scandal. Go polish your own glass house, but drop this laughably pompous pontificating of NOTHING CRIMINAL or even especially salacious. She was behaving rudely, not criminally, and thankfully, no one in the world needs sanctimonious puffery like yours to determine who is properly apologetic.
Scarlet Pimpernel says
Girls just want to have fun; so who cares; Republicans will find this amusing and she will be re-elected.
Mary says
I am in Gibson’s district in Henrico. She is mentally ill and a sociopath. The fact she is 40 years old hooking online,not 20, and has 2 small children should make her slink away into a state of perpetual shame. But alot of money so far has been invested in her and she’s doing what all the Democrat pervs do, doubling down.
But the kicker is not the crazy Gibson. It’s the fact her hardcore XXX porn online activities with her equally sick disturbed recovering alcoholic lawyer hubby does not matter to the wine swilling liberal northern Va. and New England transplants now residing in the Henrico suburbs.
So, as far as “standards” go, double or otherwise, it’s not relevant to the Dems and standards are only applicable to Republican candidates and office holders.
And knowing how the Marxists are lurking everywhere to “hold the enemy to their own standards, ” it would be prudent for family values conservatives like Boebert to not give the Left what they want.
Gary Miller says
Lauren Boebert carried on like a high-school girl. Her rude behavior will no doubt cost her district her seat. Articles like this one from Rachel Alexander serve no useful purpose.
BJB AZ says
Can’t we expect a little better of Republicans?
I feel embarrassed for her four children.
Shouldn’t their mother behave better than a Brittney Spears wannabe?
ed says
The reasons for getting rid of all dems just keep piling up
Robert Hagedorn says
Instead of apologizing, which indicates weakness unless someone really and truly is damaged in some way as a victim and thus deserves the apology, maybe Boebert should have just said, “Hey, screw you! I did nothing wrong, just tried to enjoy myself and have a little fun.” Or better yet, she could have said nothing, both during and afterwards. I wasn’t there, so I have no idea how much of a disturbance she was actually causing. Maybe it WAS a lot and maybe it was nothing. But she was recognized from the start in a sea of Leftists, all of whom hated her.
Ivan Skovar says
Lauren Boebert is a human being. Her personal foibles are little more than an expired parking meter compared to the overt corruption and betrayal of the American people exhibited in many of her colleagues.
She also has an A+, 100%, Liberty Score with Conservative Review.
Any potential illegality notwithstanding, I don’t care about a her personal life. She conducts herself with the best interests of her constituents and the American people in mind.
TRex says
Much ado about nothing unless you are motivated by hatred, destruction and self=aggrandizement. One would think this is the first time in history a couple got all frisky in a darkened movie hall. It isn’t, I know first hand. But the political assassins and the “holier than thou” crowd think they’ve got this moral offender in their sights and she must be taken out. Pomposity and politics are driving this story and both are dripping with hypocrisy.
Capitalist-Dad says
Don’t care about her potentially rude behavior—why vape in the auditorium? But dating a Democrat is beyond the pale. Boebert is the modern equivalent of Coco Chanel (who was a Nazi collaborator—you can look it up).
