Rep. Louie Gohmert - "Texas A-hole of the Week"
Texas Tribune 6/21/11
Video: AC360 Calls Out Gohmert On '57 States' Remark

Last night, U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, was again the subject of a "Keeping Them Honest" segment on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360.

Cooper took the congressman to task over statements he made during a recent debate on U.S. involvement in Libya. Gohmert accused President Barack Obama of supporting "57 Islamic states in the world." He was referring to a misstatement then-presidential candidate Obama made on the campaign trail in 2008, when he accidentally said he had visited 57 American states. The candidate's staff blamed the snafu on campaign exhaustion.

Obviously, Gohmert read into it a little more, claiming, "We have an obligation to the 50 American states, not the 57 Islamic states... and this administration will have been complicit in helping people who want to destroy our country."


Gohmert is a big stupid Texas sized asshole!!!! :mad:

And he's running a close race with the idiot Perry.:eyes:

1. I think there's some kind of contest among TX repukes.
Whenever one of them says something exceedingly stupid, within a few days one of the others will try to outstupid him.
