And the lawmaker who once warned the world of gazpacho police now claims the feds are planning to track bowel movements, too.
You have to accept the fact that the government totally wants to provide surveillance on every part of your life, Greene said in a rant from her podcast clipped and posted online by Patriot Takes, a right-wing watchdog group.
They want to know when youre eating, the conspiracy theorist added. They want to know if youre eating a cheeseburger, which is very bad because Bill Gates wants you to eat his fake meat that grows in a peach tree dish.
And if youre not eating peach tree dish meat, the government ― of which she is a part ― will find a way to zap you into compliance.
Watch the funnies here:

1. She's just fucking with us at this point.
2. She has a speech impediment and a learning disability.
It could be both...

(4,291 posts)For those who weren't around in the 1980, Clara became a popular TV personality with the phrase "Where's the beef?" in Wendy's commercials.
Like this one:
And, appropriately, the phrase has since become an all-purpose phrase questioning the substance of an idea, event, or product. (per Wikipedia)

(10,252 posts)I wonder if as a child, one or both parents were control freaks, who made her childhood miserable? Mentally, she's still a child with no self control.
Why is she so afraid of gov? Burger King may want to know how many cheeseburgers I eat, but the gov, no. It doesn't want to know that. The gov wants to know that meat and cheese processing plants are clean and not passing on salmonella in their products. Local gov wants to know that a burger joint can pass a health inspection.
She's a really weird sick person.

The Jewish Space Lasers causing forest fires was inventive and entertaining, but this one is just sad.
Some sort of mental decline happening here.
But I guess dishes made from peach tree wood could be interesting. Different. But not dishwasher safe.
If she meant 'petri dish' grown meat being pushed by Bill Gates instead of the real thing though, I think the men in white with a straight jacket best be ready to take her away.
Sounds like a classic paranoid delusion to me.

(2,769 posts)Trolling is her thing. It gets her attention and her face on the internet. It annoys liberals and promotes an actual weird entertainment factor.
After all, she's got nothing to do at her "job", so she's got to find some other way to get publicity.

(32,645 posts)The entire joke with Gilda Radner's character "Emily Litella" is that she stupidly misunderstands a hip term or phrase. Then she goes off on a tirade against that incorrect phrase. The SNL news announcer (Chevy Chase) corrects her and says, "Emily, that's violence on TV, not violins on TV" or whatever - it was always a different phrase. Then the payoff was Emily's line, "Oh ... never mind!"
The difference of course is that Gilda realized we were all smart enough to get the joke. And she played along with us. I don't think Empty Greene is that clever. However I really think Empty Greene is playing us. She's the new Emily Litella and this is is how she "owns the libs." Otherwise nobody pays attention to her at all.

(5,405 posts)Sure, this!
Trouble with dumb people is that they assume they are smarter than a lot of us, and throw out ideas to see which will stick.
But MTG just can't hit the right note . . .not smart enough, I guess.
Next one please MTG, none of your theories have stuck so far.
New line of crockery?
