HELP, I THINK I MAY BE IN NEED OF A LAUGH

Checking elderly mom's e-mail for "prayer chain notices". I discover a prayer request for "patience be granted to man caring for elderly mother" OK, SOOO NOT ME! fUCK PATIENCE....I want humor! Mom's got bad back, parkinsons, dysphagia, and other assorted ills. However being redhead and DANISH--think Viking with anger management issues---(seriously, she sleeps with large Peruvian walking stick to fight the ghosts which haunt her (parkinsons induced) hallucinatory dreams, picking on her illusionary kindergarden and preschool charges. Most of which she remembers from 20 plus trips to south and central American heavy poverty areas to staff free medical clinics.) Went to tell mom about her e-mail, after really bad day helping her and trying to fix broken machinery on farm. Mom's job was to listen to impeachment hearings as much as bood pressure and oxygen would allow. Seriously, use an oximeter, oxygen concentrator, and sphygmomanometer to keep things in proper ranges due to parkinsons. I asked mom what the republicans had been saying. her reply, (classic)----"They say the FBI is lying, the IG is lying, the former ambassador is lying, the Democrats are lying, the Law professors are lying, the DEEP STATE is lying and trying to frame TRUMP. It's basically a PISSPOOR, AMETURISH VERSION OF THE BULL SHIT, O.J.---- "I WAS FRAMED" DEFENSE"--------After several minutes of laughter, I thought, not bad for the old broad, not bad at all.
