What Happens When You Hack Off Everydamnbody In The Stinkin’ World
It appears that John Boehner and I have something in common.
I don’t like Texas Congressvarmint Louie Gohmert and I always will.
John Boehner agrees.
American Action Network, which calls itself a “center-right” advocacy group, has bought $10,000 worth of digital advertising in the [Louie’s] district in the hope of building support for a congressional bill that will fund the Department of Homeland Security.
“Global threats against our security are increasing … and some in Washington are playing political games with our national security,” the ad stated. “Tell Congressman Gohmert: Fund Homeland Security.”
No kidding, Folks, Louie is so screwy that John Boehner is taking out ads against him.
It’s a plan so crazy that it just might work!
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
Sounds as though this is Boehner’s version of making kissy-face noises at Louie.
1Surprising. I’d have bet Looney and Boner puked in the same dumpsters in the same back alleys together.
2“This administration will not defend the women of America from criminal aliens! By the thousands, and hundreds of thousands! And we know people are coming in by the hundreds of thousands illegally.”
Texas is a “state that is being invaded — in our case more than twice as many just in recent months, more than twice as many than invaded France on D-Day with a doubling of that coming en route.”
Louie adds that he wants to use whatever means is necessary, whether it’s troops, even ships of war.
(Comments from Louie on the floor of the House of Representatives in July 2014.)
I guess he doesn’t think he needs any help with all of that from Homeland Security. Maybe he’ll hold a bake sale.
3Boehner understands compromise is not a dirty word. He is dealing with 50-60 idiots, including Louie, who do not want to follow the rules. They are special snowflakes.
The DHS clean budget passed the House with all the Dems voting for it and only 74 Rs. So much for their standing with America’s first responders. Next time they need FEMA I am sure it will be there in spite of the members voting against funding the agency.
4I hope someone is writing a book full of Louie quotes interspersed with pictures of him yelling.
5Is someone paying attention to who it is that Louie has as Staffers? He can’t be coming up with those lines all by his lonesome.
Really, you don’t want these Staffers in office.
6Louie’s staffers — judging strictly by name not a diverse staff http://www.legistorm.com/member/251/Rep_Louie_Gohmert.html
7I’d read that some of the saner Republicans were agitating against some of their own loonies, but Louie wasn’t mentioned there. I can’t wait for the GOP to fracture; I’ve been hoping for it ever since the 1980 when the religious extremists hooked up with those rich buggers who don’t fit through needles’ eyes.
“Boehner understands compromise is not a dirty word.” Maybe he gets there eventually, but that doesn’t explain why he held back a bipartisan Senate immigration bill for nearly two years, refusing to bring it to a House vote that it would have passed, because the flailing right wing of his party didn’t like it. He’s finally seen sense this time, but he spends most of his time valuing his padded chair more than the good of the country.
8I am certainly not going to defend Boehner.
Boehner agreed to let most of his committee chairs vote against the DHS bill because he had enough Dem votes for it to pass. If a Republican needed to throw red meat at the home crowd, there was room to do it.
Shuster, among others, voted “no”. As did Lamar Smith, dufus from TX that heads the House SCI panel. Support from many R appropriators though, of course.
House conservatives tried to stave off the DHS funding bill by offering to support a two week CR so more negotiations could occur, but I think leaders just wanted this over and had a way out that was as good as it was going to get.
And, diverting attention away from Netanyahu was a huge variable.
9Forgot to include link to how folks voted. The DHS bill is not yet listed.

10If DHS is not funded, there are going to be hordes of terror babies coming in.
11If wingnuts prevail,the terrorists win.
12I don’t really have anything to add. I just like it whenever a topic includes Boner because I like to write it. Boner is how I always pronounce Boner. Do you pronounce Boner as Boner too, Micr?
Boner, Boner, Boner! Nyah, nyah, nyah. (Do I win the WMDBS Maturity Award for today?)
13I pronounce it Boner, and sometimes Bonehead.
14@Debbo
15Guilty as charged. I’m trying to do better, but he just makes me mad enough to spit.
Hey! You made fun of Lamar Smith. I’m the only one allowed to do that. Nyeah nyeah nyeah Lamar Smith.
16Marge I did not make fun just pointed out the obvious. He is a dufus which I believe can be scientifically proven. Although the dufus does not “believe” in science. Friggin dufus.
17In Texas and other wingnut states,hacking everyone off gets you elected as a tea-bagger and prolly for life.
18Louie did not vote to fund the Department of Homeland Security

It’s got to work out some how mathematically but I can’t figure out how a crazy person calling another crazy person ‘insane’ adds up to sanity.
20When the aliens invade, Gohmert and the rest of his pals are the front line.
21maryelle, when I read that about Gohmert being on the front line when the aliens invade, what I pictured was the War of the Worlds type alien with their huge machines and towering death rays. Those are definitely the folks I’d want to have up front.
22Front lines for Gohmert and friends will look like this-
