The next paragraph after the ones I quoted:
Goodwin recalled picking up Boucher, a devout Catholic, at his home after church one Sunday afternoon several years ago. Boucher had confronted Paul about his yard-maintenance practices a few minutes before Goodwin's arrival, to no avail, and Goodwin saw Boucher grow agitated as they both watched Paul blow grass onto his lawn. "I've asked him and I've asked him and I've asked him," Goodwin recalls Boucher fuming. "How long can you sit there taking someone plucking a hair out of your nose?" Goodwin asked. "How long could you take that before losing your temper?"
How long has this been going on, indeed.

President Donald Trump said Sunday a final decision would come this week on whether to maintain a ban on importing elephant hunting trophies from two African countries, indicating he was leaning toward keeping the Obama-era rules in place.
"Big-game trophy decision will be announced next week but will be very hard pressed to change my mind that this horror show in any way helps conservation of Elephants or any other animal," Trump wrote on Twitter Sunday night.
...Criticism from allies who have big platforms on the right clearly moved the needle. Conservative radio host Michael Savage, who is very popular with the Trump base, and Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham, who recently published a pro-Trump book, both spoke out against getting rid of the Obama-era policy. - Washington Post
So Michael Savage and Laura Ingraham care about elephants? Kinda surprised (figured elephants were dispensable to them) Maybe cuz the animal is a symbol of the Republican party...

tbf to Boucher, if he'd asked Paul numerous times to change what he was doing, and the solution was as simple as turning the mower around and mowing the edge going the opposite direction, then every time Paul went the 'wrong' direction he was pointedly saying "fuck you" to his neighbor. depending on how often Paul mowed, that's a lot of "fuck you". otoh, a "devout Catholic" should have turned the other cheek.

Even as someone who has as at least many criticisms of Bernie as I do reasons to like him, his saying Franken should stay on was a disappointment. (Of course, that was before these latest allegations came to light, so he may change his tune yet.)
