More Importantly, Those Refugee Children are Lying to Louie Gohmert, Bygawd!
Louie Gohmert.
I can see you preparing yourself.
Louie says those little nincompoops from Central America are lying about coming from a dangerous place.
“Texas and the United States is [sic] being invaded and we’re in danger,” Gohmert said, before alleging that most of the unaccompanied minors are lying when they tell border patrol agents that they are escaping gang violence in Central America and have been coached to make such claims. Gohmert said minors end up telling officers that “we were told to say that we were fleeing gang violence.”
Yeah, you know all the violence in Central America? Just like climate change – made up. Just a left wing conspiracy.
And if they’re lying about that, what else are they lying about? That they are humans? That they are hungry? That they did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky?
You cannot trust little hungry children, y’all.
Thanks to Karl for the heads up.
This issue, more than most, exposes the true hypocrisy of KKKristians like Gohmert and his rabid repugs. The children deserve kindness and care. Gohmert deserves hellfire.
1I think he should go down there on a fact-finding mission, without security. Maybe a fact will take care of him, and we won’t have to listen anymore to him.
2Good one Cheryl!
3Louie Gohmert would have to gain quite a few IQ points in order to br classified as a MORON.
4Louie should try living in the barrio in one of the Central American countries for a week.
5Excellent, Cheryl! Let’s send Loopy Louie to El Salvador. I know just the gentleman to act as his tour guide, someone who left there more than 20 years ago to escape the conditions. He’d be happy to relieve Louie of his passport, credit cards and money in exchange for giving him the grand tour. If he lasts a day, Louie can follow the children north to test how long he’d last riding the death train.
6Louie is a disgusting husk of something some might call a pernicious pissant … he’s not human … one can only hope what little bit of brains he might actually have will dribble out of his ears or his a$$ … disgusting piece of rotten tripe!!
7Even more excellent – PKM. It will give him an appreciation of what these kids have been through.
8when i think of how long it takes louie to buff out his crainium every morning his weird statements make more sense. them rent boys have to look sharp.
9Cheryl, Loopy Louie is totally incapable of extrapolation. He’s the penultimate “hands on” learner and my friend from El Salvador is the perfect man to lay an imparting hand of knowledge on Louie.
That our lazy, lying Congress will not help these children is beyond reprehensible. Of course he didn’t mean it in a good way, but Grumpy McCain was almost correct, when he said the families should be processed at the embassies in the effected countries. But, yes, the children and families should be processed in their home countries, given asylum and a flight to the USA with plans for their welcome here. Just wagging a guess, but I think that’s where Grumpy and I part ways. While I say welcome, he’d be a big “no.”
10What’s truly so frightening about this is that you could relocate that whacko to Minnesota and put him on the ballot in any rural or suburban congressional district and he would garner 40% plus. We are that far off the rails of reason in this country and it ain’t just the water in Texas.
11Marcia: thanks for coining the phrase “pernicious pissant”. It is so apt with regard to this particular insect.
12Do the reporters just keep that picture of Louie handy for all their interviews, or does he always look like that? You’d think that just once in awhile he’d look kinda pleasant or calm.
13My question is concerning Louie’s mental status. He was able to get through law school so he has (or had) some brain cells. But he seems to me to be truly mentally ill, not simply stupid.
14Anyone else think so?
Jan , I lack any & all medical qualifications to determine if Loopy Louie has serious medical issues or is deliberately stupid. But, I have sufficient common sense to know he is one buffoon that would improve Congress, if he retired.
Loopy Louie is cra-cra-crazy in his own words.
Speaker Cheetos, what say you and the other committee chairmen who have the power to douse the insane? Really, old man, get your act together and lead the House, or step aside.
15And he’s going ballistic over a number of children who in total wouldn’t fill more than half of Kyle Field.
16There are many accounts of the horror these child refugees left behind. Here’s just one: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jul/09/central-america-child-migrants-us-border-crisis
17I doubt Louis could make sense of it; it’s in English.
I suspect that Louie lacks sympathy for children because he never was one. He just crawled out from under a rock fully formed.
18….AND MARCIA DROPS THE MIC!
*awesome*
19My bet is that Louie and his ilk are foaming at the mouth over these hapless children because these kids are actually gettting a lot of help from non-profit organizations as well as individual citizens who have sufficient humanity. The “good” side of the equation is making the bad side look even worse by the minute and according to the bad side, “that ain’t fair!”
20Of course Louie and his ilk believe that these kids put the U.S. in danger.
The core of the Republican creed is to be afraid–be very afraid–of anything that is not a prosperous, aging, Republican, white male. They spend their entire lives in a state of fear and funk.
21He’s not stupid, it’s worse than that. He’s willfully ignorant in the name of the Laaaaawwd-uh. It’s disgusting.
22Boehner gave Lippy Louie what for in a recent closed door meeting. It seems Louie is really pissing off his own party. Just one thing. Boehner always seems to go just so far and no further such as kicking Louie out of the room. Officially, he can do that. He can even summon security to do that. Seems he has not read his handbook!
