White House Vehemently Denies Goat Rumor

[MineralMan]

Sarah Huckleberry Sanders spoke venomously and harshly when answering a question posed by an unnamed journalist on Friday. The question came after cameras were shut down and the journalist trapped her with his question: "That is absolutely untrue, and everyone should know that without asking. There is absolutely no truth to any rumor regarding the President and the White House goat. That goat is only here to supply milk for a cow's milk sensitive person in residence. I'm shocked that anyone would imply any carnal connection between the President of the United States and a filthy goat. Shame on you! That's just disgustingly incorrect. "

I guess she told him, eh?

Disclaimer: This story is not true. There is no truth to this rumor. It is a falsehood entirely. Nothing about it is even close to true. The President has been nowhere near that goat.

{Psst, Sarah, is that a good enough denial, do you think?}

1. Goat shagging?

As a Scotsman once told me... I ain't putting anything past this WH.

[MineralMan]

2. No, No. Not true at all. I swear!

[Generic Other]

30. I think what we are thinking is legal where Sarah comes from

So finally she gets to deny a real falsehood. Funny it sounds no different that when she insists the truth is a lie.

3. This story is not true. There is no truth to this rumor. It is a falsehood entirely....but...

I am willing to believe it. I can believe any thing.

[MineralMan]

5. Please put it right out of your mind.

Clearly, nothing untoward has ever happened in that regard. I only posted to make that clear, out of an abundance of caution.

4. My Pet Goat??

[MineralMan]

6. Please do not bring George W. Bush into this.

There was no White House goat during his administration, as far as I am aware.

[madinmaryland]

7. My question is what is it with Republicans and goats?

[MineralMan]

8. I believe it all started at an ultra-conservative subterranean website.

I'm not certain about that, but I have heard it said.

[madinmaryland]

9. I think they referred to me as the rabid terrapin.

LOL. What a bunch of losers.

[MineralMan]

10. LOL, indeed...

[Hekate]

19. Are they still in business?

You made me look -- gods, they are as vile as ever, and as obsessed with us as ever.

[MineralMan]

24. Indeed they are. I expect this post to show up there

eventually. It seems that I'm a favorite target.

[Hekate]

32. They definitely do not consort with billygoats over there, no matter who says otherwise

Goats do not like spelunking.

11. If Stormy got $130,000 for spanking him with a Forbes magazine ...

that goat's potential net worth would have it flirting to join the top 1% ... if only it could talk!!!

I wonder if that would finally be too much for the evangelicals .... ?

.... if Putin had a tape of that ....

[MineralMan]

12. But look! Nothing like that every happened.

I'm telling you. Nothing. There was no interspecies contact. Not true. It was completely denied.

[Jarqui]

29. the combination of Sarah and denial often leads towards truth :)

As well, I have had the misfortune more than once of encountering folks in the act with beasts ... life is stronger than fiction.

Saw one of the women on the View I think it was commenting how the Stormy Daniels scandal did not shock or surprise her - like she had reached a point with Trump where nothing would shock her any more. If Trump was doing it with a goat, like that lady, I'm kind of beyond being shocked by him. There's been so much outrageous stuff go on that i'm kind of getting numb to it all.

13. Is this what Wolff was talking about with Fire and Fury...

when he hinted about a current affair...read between the lines and referred to the back door? A goat would be much cheaper than a porn star and not as picky. Just sayin'.

[MineralMan]

15. Oh, I'm sure that's not so. Really.

To be clear, any such rumors are strongly denied by the White House. Vehemently, even. For that, we have to take their word, I think.

[Frustratedlady]

17. Why? We don't take it for anything else. eom

[packman]

14. A Joke

Trump is at Mar-Largo , sitting with a group at a table. He seems downtrodden and depressed. A friend asks him why so long-faced.

"I won the election, by a huge landslide. Will they give me credit- NO. Will they call me , 'Don-the Winner'? - No"

He continued-

"I am a genius, a super genius. I invent words. Will they call me 'Don-The Wordsmith'? No"

He gazed off and mumbled:

"I saved the coal industry. Saved it with the force of my character. Will they call me 'Don-The Coal Savior' ? No"

"But let them catch you in the pantry with a goat----"

[MineralMan]

16. Hmm...there's a joke about it, too?

I don't know...perhaps I've been misled.

18. A Note: Goats at the White House Are Not Unknown.

President Lincoln kept two goats, which were favorites of Tad.

Benjamin Harrison, too, had a pet goat, which his children used to pull a cart. Here's a photo:



So, you see, White House goats are a harmless, innocent tradition.

20. Woodrow Wilson Kept Sheep at the White House

It's true:

[ProudLib72]

21. A very loud, orange goat?

[MineralMan]

22. Wow! That's funny right there.

I don't care who you are. Talk about your substitutes for manly attributes. What a stack on that one!

[ProudLib72]

26. A blown, stroked V8

producing all of 110 hp and getting about 2 mpg. That is a metaphor for the orange menace.

[dweller]

23. ah... so that explains the segment on 'goat yoga' on CBS SUNDAY MORNING

today ... introducing the concept of "plausible deniability" ...

"He was only engaged in 'goat yoga' , a trend sweeping the country "

[MineralMan]

25. Perhaps. You know how that works, I can tell.

[question everything]

27. You are hitting on all the cylinders today!

(No interest in the Vikes??)

[jmowreader]

28. Because you can't buy goat milk in cartons...

[Hekate]

33. And you can't have a "Have you seen me?" Photo on a bottle...nt

31. LOL
