And He’ll Fit Right In, Too

April 24, 2018 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

I want you to met Foster Friess, a conservative megadonor who lives in Wyoming.

Foster has just announced that he wants to run to Governor of Wyoming, even though he doesn’t know much about many of the issues.  However, he has an explanation for that.

But Friess explained that he still needed to learn a lot more about the issues facing the state because his hometown paper, the Jackson Hole News & Guide, had not done a good job informing its readers. Friess argues the paper “is very left-wing so they give a perspective on what some of the issues are—but we hear about the grizzlies, we hear about the coal issue.”

Damn shame that only one newspaper is allowed in Wyoming.

He also want to return civility to politics, but his first act toward this lofty goal was not to be so civil.  Or smart. He missed the smart goal.

Friess used a state party convention luncheon to call for a return to “civility” in American politics. He then suggested that Barack Obama had funneled money intended to mitigate global warming to cousins in a foreign country Friess didn’t know how to pronounce, adding, “Zoowanatou … it’s some little country I’ve never been.”

Well Honey, if you have’t been there, it probably doesn’t even have name.

Thanks to SGray for the heads up.

Be social and share!

  1. Unfortunately he fits right in with some of the mouth breathers they got running in the Republican primary for Governor here in ol’ Wyo.

    Surprised no mention was made of how mad the GOP convention goers were to learn that because their convention was held on University of Wyoming property, they couldn’t have their guns. Of course most all suggested pulling funding on our only state university….

  2. The GOP has a lot of Low IQ, rich, dimwits, in it. We are no where close to the bottom of the barrel.

  3. I think he meant Nambia.

  4. No he meant Zoowanatou as racist hate-speak to his minions for the country from which they all believe President Obama sprung in deepest, darkest blackest Africa. Jez this guy has the IQ of an amoeba. As do his minions.

    You mean there are other places in Wyoming beside Jackson Hole? How do you expect him to know that?

  6. Well, there’s Jackson Hole, and there’s the hole his head is stuffed into.

  7. Malarkey, isn’t Nambia that boys club those GOPervs belong to?

  8. When Yellowstone blows we need no longer worry about Wyoming or for that matter most anything east of there.

    Never heard of this guy. Granted, I moved move from Wyoming in 1976. But still, he sounded bogus, so I Wickied him. Yep. Born in Wisconsin. Made his money as an investment guy. And undoubtedly moved to Jackson Hole to take advantage of the incredible scenery, solid red government, and especially the absence of state income tax.

    He does seem to have at least a touch of noblesse oblige, providing you’re deserving, according to his very Christian standards. And he’s steeped in the casual, unconscious racism endemic to the generation before him, and to rich white guys of every generation. He’s basically an entitled 78-year-old rich guy who has apparently gotten bored with retirement, and thinks maybe he’ll buy a state to play with.

    He may be confusing Zoolander and Xanadu. Must be an OLD Olivia Newton John fan. Not so much Ben Stiller. Maybe Obama’s
    cousins could give him a tour of their Global Warming Palace and lose him in the Zoolanadu outback. Bon voyage, Foster Brooks.

    Speaking of obscenely rich, entitled white guys in western states:

    Mitt Romney failed to get a majority of votes at the Utah Republican convention. He only garnered 49%, so if he wants to run for Senate, he’ll have to run in and win a primary first.
    And though his very right-wing opponent is no prize, I look forward to him beating Romney again. ‘Cuz in my old age, one of the few pleasures I still enjoy is watching ole Mitt lose.

  12. Oh goodie, white supremacists just added another secret code word to their great white christian cause, Civility!
    It even rhymes with Freedumb! Constitution! American Flag! and Benghazi!
    Now the trick is to teach Trump how to spell it correctly.

    “…teach Drumpf how to spell it correctly.”

    Ain’t enough bananas in the universe to teach Spanky anything.

  14. Haha Micr, your right! Even having Mr. Rogers explain it over and over again on Fox ‘Hate’ News wouldn’t help.
