The Daily Louie

January 05, 2013 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Y’all, Louie Gohmert is headed for Comedy King status.

He went on the electric radio again.

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) argued that House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) was functionally equivalent to Pelosi because both held one-on-one backroom negotiations with the president. Gohmert then went on to deride Pelosi’s appearance: “Well, let’s give him credit. There’s no facelift with John Boehner.”

I wouldn’t be so sure about that, Louie.

Thanks to Brian C and Beth for the heads up.

Be social and share!

  1. As a professional photographer, I notice that a ‘gobo’ was used by whoever made the publicity portrait Louie uses. It’s a term for the device used to ‘go between’ a studio hair light and a bald head. Minimizes the glare. Louie really shouldn’t be commenting on anybody’s looks, IMHO. I’m just sayin’.

    Gohmert is becoming the go-to guy for soundbites. He is willing to say something dumb about any subject whatsoever. Maybe I should say that he loves to give soundbites; their dumbness may be unavoidable.

    So, Louie’s Mama taught him that a real man wins friends & votes by insulting a woman’s looks?

    She must be so proud of whatevertheheck she raised.

  4. He’s one of those types who never progressed beyond socialization he learned in locker rooms in high school… and he is oh, so clever.

  5. What it isn’t is the best of southern gentility, that’s fer shure. It’s more like the lower-than-a-snake’s-belly, less than worm waste, lily-livered sorry excuse for a human that he claims to be.

    And that’s the truth.

    Louie’s just pissy because Ms Pelosi is a) so much smarter and well conducted than he is, and b) so much better looking than he is, gauze or no gauze! AND she is not orange either, but rather TRUE BLUE!

  7. Been reading about gohmert a while on this site and others;ie, those others being intelligent ones. While reasonable commenters opine he’s crazy, stupid, etc., I’m not sure I’d go with that because he’s smart enough to know his voting audience and gets to keep his congress seat.
    IMO, it is his district voters that cause me concern; that there are so many of them that will keep the likes of him in office.
    I have a neighbor who is from Tyler and claims to be a mensa which I don’t doubt. Mensa ain’t necessarily equivalent to common sense. She is an east tx red neck which comes thru regarding her religion and politics.
    I guess my point is that many of these types of people are intelligent in a restricted sense vs being a renaissance being.
    gohmert made a decision to sell his soul moreso, again IMO, as opposed to being stupid.

    There is a remote possibility that Louie Gohmert is actually a performance artist. As I said, remote. But it would explain his almost uncanny ability to find a microphone or camera at the drop of a moronism. And he always seems so cheerful, especially when he’s railing against something stupid. It’s like he’s thinking,”What ridiculous thing can I get away with today?”. But I did really enjoy his Ottoman Empire rant. It was classic.

  9. If thinking causes wrinkles then Louie will never, ever need a facelift.

  10. Am I the only one reminded of Gomer Pyle when I see and read anything Louie says?

    In the words of a tea party patriot, he is a “moran”!

  11. Senator Alfonse D’Amato of New York had these words for Louie Gohmert and his fellow Republicans who voted against FEMA Flood Insurance payments: “They’re a bunch of jackasses,” who “don’t deserve to be in Congress.”

    If you squint your eyes just right, he sort of DOES look like Gomer, doesn’t he?

  14. Beth Francis says:

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Since he’s obviously OK with people making comments about other folks’ looks and all. God love him.

    I’ll see your Louie Gohmert and raise you Paul Broun of GA.

    He looks like the boss on the Simpson’s.

  17. I’m get tired of Louie. There are so many more GOP fools waiting in the wings. When does the Texas ledge begin it session? That should create a lot of new material.

  18. Louie won Tyler by the same amount that Romney did (over 70%). A democrat doesn’t stand a snowballs chance in East Texas. The fact that Louie and Leo have been elected repeatedly should tell folks something about the rose city. Thank goodness that after seven terms Leo is out, however, he was of course, replaced by a republican.

    I know one of Louie’s daughters and she is a beautiful, talented, and very liberal young lady. Fortunately, for her, the apple fell very far from the tree. Louie is such an embarrassment. He is even an embarrassment to some of my republican friends, but even so, they just couldn’t bring themselves to vote for a godless liberal or a democrat because surely they are one in the same.

  19. Let East Texas secede. Then let us secede from East Texas and knock off two boobs with one stone. Voila…no more Louie,
    no more wretched redneck voters…huh, maybe, wish?

  20. Senator Alfonse D’Amato . . . sure I remember him . . . and his canoodling. Despite his stupidity in other realms he nailed it with his estimation of pols that hold suffering people as hostages.

  21. I hope no disaster comes to Louie’s district, because if he didn’t vote for any of the previous disaster relief bills including Sandy, then surely his logic and the rest of the republicans will preclude asking for, much less voting for, any disaster relief from the government.

    Louie is an inspiration to many people. Like this one who said (among other things):
    “But here’s a little something that Louie can perhaps wrap his brain around in between coming up with witless witticisms — bon-bon mots, so long as the bon-bons were rabbit pellets — first rule of woodcraft.

    When you realize you’re lost, sit down.”

    i wish you’d stop publishing this pic of louis. it completely creeps me out to look at it.

  24. My opinion is that he looks like Porky Pig, with apologies to Porky. He sputters when he talks, too.
    I grew up in Tyler. It’s a beautiful place, or was 40 years ago. But I had to unfriend on facebook those from my high school class during the election. I couldn’t believe the amount of venom that came from them. It saddens me that those I liked so much so many years ago could be so ignorant of the world about them. It was strange, but those who stayed in Tyler and around were the ones that talked so crazy. Most to those who live is foreign states were very different. Must be akin to inbreeding.

    Heavens to Betsy! Gohmert voted for Allan West to be Speaker of the House.

    He knows Allan West isn’t actually a member of the House anymore, right? Right?
