Oh Texas GOP nutjob Rep. Louie Gohmert, you never cease to amuse me with your rabid, racist insanity.
In an interview yesterday with Dan Cofall, Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, accused President Obama of using immigration and the Ferguson case to provoke violence.
When Cofall asked Gohmert about Sen. Tom Coburns claim that Obamas executive action deferring the deportation of some immigrants could result in violence, Gohmert replied that Obamas critics would never resort to violence since only liberals do that.
Civil disobedience comes from the left, he said. Theyre the ones that loot and shoot up and shoot up stores and do all kinds of things like that. If you look at the conservative gatherings, we even pick up our own trash. But it could be that this president is doing all he can to get conservatives who remember the country when presidents didnt exceed their bounds and wish we would go back to those days, it may be enough to make them that angry. But I hope not, I hope theres no violence.
Cliven Bundy. Ruby Ridge. Timothy Effing McVeigh. But thanks for playing.
Gohmert also weighed in on the Ferguson case, accusing Obama of inciting violence: Obviously the president and the attorney general have done all they could to help stir up animosity and fuel the fire and getting people angry at police where they shouldnt have, but I hope and pray that doesnt happen. It may happen in Ferguson because obviously they brought in the liberal attack people that just create all the havoc and mayhem they can but I hope and pray that doesnt spread anywhere else. Im sure they want it to, Im sure that people would love to have the federal government intercede, but I would beg conservatives not to get sucked into that trap.

On the other end is a trusted aide saying, "Inhale.... exhale... inhale... exhale..."
So, are there any sentient creatures dumber than Loule?
Sure are. The 114,925 people who voted for him.
