Louie is Enlisting!
Loopy Louie Gohmert has a solution to the humanitarian crisis on the border: shoot them.
Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) linked the thousands of Central American immigrants to both Mexican revolutionaries and terrorists during an interview with radio host Dan Maduri, and argued that President Barack Obama should use military force to keep them out of the U.S.
Louie served 4 years in the Army JAG corps and now he thinks it’s time to go Rambo on little children.
Then Louie goes into a completely wrong, wrong, wrong story about General Pershing and Poncho Villa in 1916. Of course, Gohmert thinks we’re still living in 1916. And he forgets that Villa won.
But, the best part is that Gohmert says the real problem is all the terrorists coming across the border. That is so not true.
According to a recent Department of Homeland Security study, there are relatively few crossings of the Mexican border by individuals from countries other than Mexico and Latin America. The Canadian border (which is 2,000 miles longer and largely unpatrolled) is considered more vulnerable to terrorist crossings followed by the threat from people who come into the US on airplanes using valid visas or forged papers.
Also missing is the small detail that Gohmert supported The William Wilberforce Act, the act that Gohmert now wants to impeach the President for enforcing.
Meanwhile, both Galveston and League City have banned undocumented immigrant children from entering their city. I have no idea if the children will be shot on sight or be given some measure of due process. I don’t think the city councils have thought that through either.
I’m not a vicious person but I truly hope someone shoots Louie … he deserves a good healthy dose of buckshot in his flabby butt!!
1Do enough people in Texas realize how STOOOPID he is that he will not be returned to Washington?
2According to one article I read, Louie will be with Glenn when he takes his tractor trailer truck of water, stuffed animal toys and soccer balls to the children.
Is Louie going to be packin’ then?
3What’s with the Republican War on Children? Perhaps Ollie North could provide them with a little history as to why we are indeed responsible for many of the conditions in Central America. They’ve lost all sight of due process in their hysteria. Did they ever have compassion?
4So did JAG stand for Jack Ass Gohmert?
5As a whole, the concept of social responsibility had deteriorated in this country. In Texas, this concept is dead and buried. The most charitable thing to say about many (but not all) of the citizens here is that they are socially unconscious and/or are only focused on self. Unfortunately, this allows the sociopaths to emerge safely.
6North wanted to use FEMA to round up Central American immigrants and detain them in camps under dumbass dubya.
7President Obama should use military force to keep Louie Gohmert from spewing braindead gibberish at every opportunity.
8I apologize in advance to my brothers and sisters in Rep Gohmert’s district.
Rep Gohmert is a poster child for having Texas (in particular) elect US Senators and Representatives at large. When the birds of a feather syndrome concentrates stupid or hate or selfishness in a geographic area opportunists like Rep Gohmert come along and benefit from it. And one can only believe that his constituency supports his stupidness, his hate, his selfishness or they would not return him to the lege.
Maybe it is just me but I as I look at the men and women Texas citizens have elected to Congress I just cringe. If I didn’t have 40+ years of adult life and all the things that go with it planted in Texas, I’d leave by noon today.
Today, Texas makes me so sad.
9Has anyone ever seen the movie The Madness of King George? That would be King George III of England, the one on the throne during our Revolutionary War, the one with the Prince of Wales son that he hated. He and Louie have a lot in common. What George III suffered from can now be fixed but I ain’t so sure about Louie. I only got short term stuff ideas such as a stick of alum gum.
10Louie is headed to the Tex-Mex border with Glenn Beck and Sen Mike Lee on the 19th of July! Now that ought to be lot’s of fun!

11Federal law prohibits sending those refugee children back until they have been screened.
12It’s on the books and President Obama is simply trying to comply with that law. I’d like to suggest a campaign to send dog muzzles to all the reps like Gohmert who need them.
Take a look at this imagine of Gohmert! Check the cheek’s out!

13Louie is an excellent representative of the aptly named Know Nothing Party ca. mid-19th century. How sad it is to see Know Nothing nativism and Gilded Age greed thriving right after the Great Recession.
14How many of us know or are related to people who were refugees of some sort during the past?
15attn louie: pancho was able to outrun black jack riding a harley because pancho had a indian motorcycle. tru story! look it up
16Remember we’re the country that turned away a boatload of Jews in 1939. These anti-humanitarians will always be with us.
17@maryelle: It’s federal law that was passed and modified under Bush (Homeland Security Act section 462). Unaccompanied children from Canada and Mexico are to be turned back at the border (and are in almost all cases). Ones from other nations in the Americas are required to be admitted to be processed. It’s another example of how ‘lawless’ Obama’s administration is merely obeying law that the butt-ingorant teapottiers don’t know exists.
18Yeah, League City. No surprises there. Gated communities springing up like dandelions.
Protests in Bryan. When the dust settles, gonna see if I can do anything to help out. Poor little things. These stupid f—-ing “Kristians” -yeah I misspelled it, Jesus wants to hug them – using MY arms! Those mean selfish mofos are the reason Jesus was born in a stable y’all!
19Teh Gerg, most of those who want to impeach Obama for not sending the kids away to die or be killed by gangs don’t remember they voted for the law that Obama is obeying!
20Lord…can things get any crazier here in Texas? So ashamed of the message these idiots are sending to other states and countries. Texas is better than that!
21yes Frank–as Will Rogers said at the time, “The US Army has Poncho Villa bottled up in Mexico between the Atlantic and the Pacific.
22PANCHO Villa, not “Poncha”… ¡Por favor!” BTW, Pershing’s expedition was a bust… they never came anywhere close capturing PANCHO, and the U.S. lost the only battle it got into at El Carrizal, Chihuahua. I wonder if Louie is planning to do like General Pershing, and bring a mobile “bawdy house” (I know Juanita’s mama reads this) with him.
23Maggie, I’ve seen The Madness of King George several times. George III had a medical condition. Louie has no excuse.
24If I were still living in Hidalgo County, I’d get a bunch of us together and keep Louie, Glenn and Mike from entering the county. Just flat stop their bus or truck or whatever and tell ’em face to face they’re so dumb ignorant, stupid, and bigoted that we don’t want their fat white butts in our county. Bet Cameron and Willacy would cooperate, too.
Dang it. That’s my home place & people that SOB keeps talking about. He and Perry and Abbott…I want to lay some hard words on all of them.
