The St. Louis County Council does not require council members to be sworn in on a Bible, and newly elected 2nd District member Kelli Dunaway chose the Dr. Seuss book “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!”
“I’m proud and excited to get to work for the 2nd District, and to help rebuild trust in our county government,” Dunaway told a reporter after her first meeting.

No swearing in over a pizza?
In other words, flimflam the populace. You'll notice she didn't say "make the government more worthy of trust."
Not the Onion and Not the Babylon Bee
Democrats just mock themselves
Learn to properly excerpt.
The number of far-left radical dangerous kooks who are getting elected to local office is the underreported, blood-chilling story of the year in this country.
It’s one thing not to be religious or have much belief in the Bible, but it’s another thing to go out of your way to mock those who do.
That’s how it appears. If she wanted some other book that had meaning to her, fine, but to choose a children’s limerick book seems purposely unserious and somewhat disrespectful. Why didn’t she choose Steven King’s novel, the one called ‘It’?
“Be not deceived; God is not mocked” (Galatians 6:7).
Flag on the play as they say in football. Dr Seuss and “Oh the places you’ll go “ is racist.

Wait. No. According to the left, the only racism that counts is against blacks, Mexicans (never mind that “Mexican” isn’t a race) and - oh, yeah, smiling at American Indians (that one will REALLY get you in trouble).
so basically her oath is worthless then- The whole point of swearing in on a bible is that you make your oath not only to the people but to and before God who will hold you accountable if you re-neg on the oath
how do you do proper excerpts? I’d like to know myself? Is there a certain min amount of words you need to post?

When you look at AOC getting a total of approx 16Thousand votes and winning against a 10(??) term incumbent and ONLY 13% of registered voters show up to vote (AND how many of them 'legit') you can see where the problem lies.
After looking at the pics etc I would imagine that MAYBE the Suess book was the idea of her children....that said, to appease her children, (get properly sworn in later?) maybe so BUT how serious will she take her job?...
the first FREE cuppa will get her under someones wing and she will be ‘tainted’ and ‘buyable’ from the gitgo.....
Oh, they (may)mean so well while running and once elected have absolutely NO IDEA of how deep the $hiite is.
Sadly, most that get elected just fall in line for their ‘share’ but occasionally one comes along and tells them ALL to take a hike and BOTH SIDES hate such a reforming/dogooder (PDJT for example)
Why doesn’t this LIB fool grow-up? What a pathetic soft-headed moron.
Here in Pittsburgh, a city of around 320,000 people, the Mayor gets elected by about 20,000 union activists.
