Pro-lifer Brandi Swindell meltdown! Banned from Idaho house chambers


Admit it: it's fun to hear children, Christians, talking birds and other "gentler" members of society say bad words. That's why we were thrilled last week to hear from the Spokesman Review and other sources that none other than Brandi Swindell had shed her obscenity-virginity and spat a few gems at House Speaker Bruce Newcomb after the two had a tense meeting in Newcomb's office--something to the effect of "the speaker is a real b***," according to Swindell's blog.

Is that a sin? Honestly, we don't know. We can't even think of what "b***" means. Is it "butt?" "Bone?" Maybe Swindell is so pure, she doesn't even know how to spell bad words, and said "Bich." Or maybe, since she and a group of pro-lifers had been out protesting all day, she caught a cold and it sounded like she said "buck," when she meant to say something else. Or maybe she can spell, but can't count, and meant to say, "B******."

In any event, according to Brandi's blog, any stories about the pro-life celebrity saying anything mildly titillating are fabricated. "I assure you that at no time did I lose my composure or reduce myself to his level by using profanity," Swindell wrote.

Sali, whose parental consent abortion law Swindell was badgering Newcomb about, added in a statement on Swindell's site that "at no time did I hear Miss Swindell shout or use profanity." Ah, fiddlesticks. On the good side, Swindell has reportedly been banned from the House chambers following the incident.

In a real creepy way, what is she, the Goth Pro Lifer?

3. The anti-choice crowd is so weird
that picture is so creepy.

And btw, honey--if you want to cuss, just do it. Stop this abbreviating bullshit. What the fuck is b*** ?! Just let some words fly, we all know you know them! I promise your holier than thou, pious, holy rollin' ass will feel SO much better.

4. Brandi's real name in Melissa. She chose "Brandi"
She's an activist for anti woman groups. She was there in the Shiavo mess.

She loves the $ the anti-women groups give her. She ran for City Council and was laughed at with less than 20% of the vote.

She's the Janet Jackson of the right wing.

5. She reminds me of the neighbor in Edward Scissorhands
The really creepy religious one.
