Well, it appears that East Texas Congressvarmint Louie Gohmert has become the Afghan version of Hanoi Jane Fonda.

Louie took his butt and a couple of his friends to Afghanistan and started a fire bigger than his butt can tamp down.

The Dallas Morning News reports —

Two Texas congressmen met with the head of an Afghan opposition party in Kabul and criticized President Hamid Karzai’s administration on Sunday — the same day Karzai and President Barack Obama concluded delicate negotiations over the future of a U.S. presence in the country.

The meeting, which coincided with the announcement of a plan to keep some U.S. troops in Afghanistan for a decade, could complicate relations with the Afghan president at an important juncture.

Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Tyler , organized the meeting with Massoud and other members of the Afghanistan National Front, a fiercely anti-Taliban group that fought alongside U.S. troops after the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.

Now what would possess a congressman to go bad mouth the President of the United Damn States of America in a foreign country while we’re at war in that country? I mean other than dumb and hateful?

Can you even imagine the calls for a treason trial if Barney Franks had done that to George Bush in Iraq? Hellfire, the rightwing tried to starve the Dixie Chicks for far less than what Gohmert just did.

Screw Louie Gohmert. Yeah, Momma, I said it. Screw the sumbitch.

Thanks to David for the heads up.
