Poor Louie Gohmert. And I Mean That Literally.
Texas Congressvarmint and bon vivant crazy man, Louie Gohmert is most likely one of the wackiest people in congress.
Come to find out, Louie, who hates government, has been on the government teat his entire life. He’s a professional teat sucker.
Gohmert was elected as a state district judge for Texas’s 7th Judicial District comprising Smith County (Tyler) in 1992 and was reelected two times before being appointed by Governor Rick Perry to fill a vacancy as Chief Justice on Texas’s 12th Court of Appeals
Now, we pay our judges pretty well in Texas, but Louie is the 11th poorest man in Congress.
Gohmert had an average net worth of -$150,001 in 2010.
Fiscally conservative?
Probably not.
Remember: Gohmert voted against the Budget Control Act of 2011 on the grounds it did not do enough to deal with the government’s growing debt.
Need a mirror, Louie?
Thanks to Ralph for the heads-up.
