1. Why doesn't Representative Botox from Texas's top lip move?
Ooops... I answered my own question. So stupid, I couldn't wait for Louie Gohmert, as I was too mesmerized by the non-moving maxilla!

Ii wonder if Botox also infiltrates to the limbic brain?

55. My God
both of those "peoples representatives", were total idiots.
Is that what it takes to be a republican politician?
From what I have seen, the answer is yes.
Look at their leaders; Boehner, McConnel...etc... anything to distract people the major problems.
Why don't they "preach" about the unparalleled wealth distribution gap in this country? You know, the main reason America has become a feudalistic nation...

Edited on Sun Aug-15-10 11:11 AM by Enthusiast
Representative Gohmert doesn't realize how ridiculous he sounds. Unfortunately he is sort of typical of the nation's alarmist right.

If we put Louie in charge what would he do? Maybe he would place intelligence assets at all airports and border crossings to watch for pregnant Middle-Eastern looking women. These women could be whisked into a convenient back room where they could be subjected to a quick abortion. Problem solved. :sarcasm:

4. In the Manchurian Candidate
the befuddled Senator Iselin can't decide on the number of commies in the State Dept. He then decides on 57 after picking up a Heinz ketchup bottle.

I guess right wingers never let facts disturb a good witch hunt.

19. speaking of witch hunts - the Wrong Wing in this country is really on the "Muslim" hunt..
It's sad when I have to remind people that a Muslim C/C a couple of blocks from "Ground Zero" is a huge part of what America is all about, whether one likes it or not. Freedom to and the right for everyone to practice their religion, freedom to not practice any religion and freedom from a "State" Religion.

Many Muslims died that day that were not terrorists. Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus - people of all faiths, atheists, agnostics etc all died that day.

The most "unAmerican" thing one could do is to argue that Muslim Americans are some how less American. (gag - I do not like that term "unAmerican" - imho anyone considered a citizen is an American - a sentiment we on DU all share)

Is that a road we should go down? We have papers please in Arizona - we know they don't go after companies that hire illegals under the worst working conditions. AZ legislators and the entire CONServative 'thug party arent serious about the issue of illegal immigration at all.

They are serious about making money - and the big private prison that would house these "illegals". We know that the goal of all companies is to make more profit than the last quarter/year whatever. So what kind of care are prisoners in private prisons getting? Yes they deserve to be treated like humans regardless of their crime - cruel and unusual punishment is illegal too.

This money trail can be found linking back always to these prisons. Who lobbied for the 3 strikes law? Private run prisons. Who lobbies for min sentences on non violent crime? It's the same over and over the money trail leads back. Prisoners also are the largest manufacturing base in the United States! Slave labour under a new name. Kill the schools, kill any kind of program that helps lift people out of poverty, and make more prisoners. Why non violent felons having their name stained after their sentence only sends these guys back to jail - unable to make it - do to their past. All while letting violent criminals and serious sexual offenders out early. (cheaper to house and control the non-violent ones).

If we do not stop the insane corporate take over of this country we will become more like Chili -Sharron Angle- and the rest of the bought and paid for corrupt politicians. The answer to save these United States - END CORPORATE ELECTION FINANCING - CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM AND ENDING CORPORATE PERSON-HOOD!!

Sorry to really go on a rant! It wasnt all directed at your post obviously but the mention the "witch hunt" is really where we are at in this country. All the way down to torture and death if found guilty (with bs evidence) or no trial at all for US Citizens - sent to Guantanamo. All separate but connected issues.

Terror babies (ty Anderson for mocking it the other day as it was deserved) is something that they tried to scare the boomers with since the boomers were in school it was all spy vs spy with Russia. They were told to be afraid of Russians and that Russians were infiltrating the US, raised as American children to carry out evil deeds when adults. This is a way for the birthers to justify their Obama story to try to retro-actively make everything he's done invalid(and he has done a lot even tho it's not enough). I think the boomers are sick of "being warned to go under their desks" (24/7 fear) though, there may be some still falling for it. But many more people are waking up.

Big /RANT OFF!!

Cheers
Sandy

Actually, his wife decides after picking up a Heinz ketchup bottle and tells him what to do and say.

Not only do Repugs not let facts get in the way, they get their lies from someone else. They aren't even their own lies!

10. Well Gohmert was right about one thing
The terrorists are certainly smarter than him. Imagine that guy, saying that Cooper was picking on him simply because Cooper asked for evidence. Good grief! What was Cooper thinking? How can he be a journalist and actually want to get the true story?
I bet Gohmert won't be on that show anymore.

Every time one of these clowns makes an ass of themselves on national TV, minds are changed. People who are "on the fence" see something like this and say "That's it. I officially give up on the republican party. These people are insane!"

Palin, Bachmann, Angle - all of them. We need for their moronic, ahistorical statements and complete ignorance of American law and governance to be front and center in the public perception of these pathetic people.

Help me out here. Are anchor babies the same as terror babies? Who started the anchor baby thing? Was it Glen Beck?

Honest to Gawd...I think a significant portion of the American populace are decompensating. And Gohmert is leading the pack. :crazy:

13. No the misinformed were told about illegals who came to the US had babies
that were automatically US citizens by birth rights. Soon after the myth popped up that these illegal babies entitled the parents to a back door to becoming legal and all the welfare bennies that were being denied to honest American citizens, never mind the fact that those welfare programs were gutted by our R friends or that illegals can't get those welfare bennies, you know conservotards tendency to pull crap out of their ass. Not to mention that these illegal American kids can't do a thing to help their parents until they turn 21 and even then their parents have to go on the waiting list, stupidity thy name is Republican.

18. I have a feeling that the anchor babies thing didn't resonate (fear-wise)..
so it got upgraded to "terror babies", a concept that's totally absurd on the face of it.

So the illegals that the Regressives are worried about are Hispanic. And Roman Catholic for the most part. They are going to renounce Catholicism, wait 16 to 18 years to send their kids overseas to train with radical Islamists, after which time they'll come back here and bomb some shopping mall or something. Because they hate our freedoms. Yep. Sounds like a plan.

Not to worry. We'll all probably have died from global warming by that time anyway. Sheesh!

* * *

Seriously, is there a narrative for this whole thing that makes sense?

Maybe. But that was an act. He wasn't getting anywhere so he relied on his "Gingrich" training and just did what he's seen "work" on Fox News.... yell non stop and throw out any scary crap he can think of while playing the victim.

It used to work much better. But now, not so much. And here.... not at all.

31. This is the repube strategy for the election.
Tie illegal immigration and terrorism together to put Obama's back against the wall.
I guess they missed the part where he just allotted $600 million for border security.
What a complete idiot Gohmert is. And to think that was a judge in Texas!
Man that state gives my state of Georgia a serious run for it's money in the intelligence

She's just another conservanazi stooge. A nice person. Gohmert is a jerkoff. What an idiot! As long as conservanazi clowns like these two are the face of Texas politicians, shame on the voters of Texas. These two idiots lie and fear monger the people of this country, just like druggie limpballs, bill o'lielly, goofy beck and hannity. The truth or real facts never enter their argument. It's just lie upon lie.

Also, here's a post from The TEXAS TRIBUNE. http://www.texastribune.org/immigration-in-texas/immigration/riddles-office-no-record-of-terror-baby-sourcing/

Her office can't find any information concerning any FBI agent/rep or otherwise that would support her claims.

Like I said before, another conservanazi toadie pushing bu$hit and lies.

43. No wonder some people think Texans are subhuman
Who elected this embarrassment to anything above hanging around at a toxic waste dump (as part of the
product, not as a worker) is obviously so close to the Mexican drug wars that they are breathing in
far too many vapors.........

44. A Serious EPIC FAIL on Louie "Gomer Pyle" Gohmert
That man is such a Gomer Pyle! He was a former judge! He should know better than to allow hearsay evidence to the record. Every time Gohmert spoke to Anderson Cooper the more idiotic he became. I lost a more than a few brain cells watching this. Give AC some credit he called him out on his "scaring the crap out of White folks for political gain" strategy.And keeping cool. Anchor babies!, terror babies what ridiculous BS is that ? Now we gotta be afraid of them! That's just insane!
:silly: :wtf: :argh: :wow: :banghead:

No he's not! Gomer was kind and soft spoken and innocent and serving his country, not a stupid racist dumbfuck trying to scare his country into submission.

And no side winding, bush whacking horn swagglin crugger crawger is gonna run away Ms. Cutter."

Business man stands up and points to crazy Louie Gohmert.

"Now how can you argue with that?"

49. Anchor babies aren't nearly as scary as this guy.
This clip should be shown on TV in his district every 15 minutes until the stupid people who elected him vote him out. He heard about it from a woman who heard about t from a guy who was told by another guy... So it must be frickin' true OK?

50. Ronald Reagan
is not the spiritual inspiration of the Republican Party. Joe McCarthy is. Guys like Gohmert act like clowns, but so did Hitler before he started killing people.

54. That guy is scarier than an actual Jihadist. He is obviously insane.
And his plans for the destruction of America are more insidious and likely to succeed. He has actual access to the halls of power and the media and is on a mission.

56. What is unfortunate is that these people have actually been elected.
I have little hope for this nation when nincompoops are elected by nincompoops to represent the citizens. When will the citizens that truly believe in the Constitution come out in mass to discredit this charlatan racist, homophobic, wacko fundamentalist end timers? I am afraid that it won't be in my life time. I attended a two Tea Party rallies and there was only a handful of counter demonstrators. We are a allowing a vocal minority of zealots to dominate politics ranging from the local school boards to the Congress.

60. Far from crazy, this guy is simply playing to the people who elected him.
He knew he would be asked about evidence of his claims going in to this.

He also knew that he had NONE.

The only solution he had was to yell for ten minutes non-stop throwing in "terrorist", "9/11", and "gaping hole in our national security" as much as possible.

Some of the rabid dogs who voted him into office may eventually see a tiny clip of this. If so, they'll think to themselves, "Whule goldang! He's-a standin' up to that pointy headed libruhl, ain't he? Maylene, whurr's mah spittin' cup?"

72. Like a trip on LSD; And with the rise of the internet
Edited on Mon Aug-16-10 01:35 PM by ooglymoogly
The ignorant have been forced into the public spotlight: Way beyond their echo chambers and their mental pay grade.

Something they have never been forced to do before; Lies and fear mongering, all they have to offer; Under the microscope of a much smarter internet; Their madness exposed.

A look in the mirror, if you will; To find that they are not; The prettiest of them all. Their ignorance shining like an ominous red sky at dawning; For any kind of future; Of pleasant sailing for this country or its ship of state;

Shocking the sane and those who would like to learn what sanity and truth are about; Into their own sudden mirror search, with a picture just slowly and ephemerally taking shape; Falling stars ever so slowly morphing into a picture;

A picture so stark it will never leave those who would not see, till they are done on this earth; Too slowly forming, while everything around them; Everything they once held dear, is turning to to the blinding shine of liquid mercury; Seeking ever lower levels as it seeks a place to rest; Its hypnotic tube light glitter, too dazzling to withstand for the easy; And finally dreams; Dreams without benefit of knowledge or the consolation of any kind of solution to the looming disaster screaming in their ear.

Finally oh so finally confronted with irrefutable evidence, screaming so loud;

We ask; Why did I not hear this trainwreck coming?

That our way of life is evaporating as fast as you can say,

"corporate takeover";

It is time to take a walk on the wild side;

A step through the looking glass;

A dumbfounded look at the horror we cannot, and I hope could never, before forced to look, have fathomed.

That these rabid shitheads of the shallowest minds; A fraternity of dullards; For whom reality is so far out of reach it is not attainable; A reality easily replaced with the ugliest lies for the sole purpose of dividing and plundering in the shadows of their evil.

Ignorance is destroying our civilization; without a care for who or how many get slaughtered or lives ruined;

Destruction that will, inevitably, encompass the earth;

The dumb in service of the obscene;

The maniacal 1%; That through a majority of the dumb, the pacified; The horrified of the horror enacted on this country, placing blame where it does not belong; Have gained a stranglehold on this country;

The shadowy cowardly wraiths; Nefarious operations hiding behind empty storefront corporations; That kill murder, pillage, rape and steal; From the safety of the shadows of their fortunes; Who gain power from fomenting that fear in the gullible slow.

with a mass of the brainless dead, doing their heartless bidding;

Those gone mad with greed; An attempt at hiding a fascination with fascism, the only thing that will protect such a tenuous house of cards held together; Leaking out uncontrollably; All over any common sense, in the joy of its realization, no matter the faulty foundation built in the wind;

We are facing a profoundly ignorant bunch, their fawning stupidity writ large;

The 1% so easily crushed by an angry voting public, if made to see.

What we are up against;

Banning together in the brotherhood of the sightless; For nothing less than to hand our government by hook and by crook and in all its imperfect glory; To these fascists; To make into their own image; As in scary stories; The mindless slave of evil sent out to do its bidding of its evil master; By crook, handed them on no less than a silver platter for a pat on the head and a handful of magic beans.

While we; Are strategically diverted;

With horrific disaster after horrific disaster and with dumb show, fear tactics of monster homosexuals in the bedroom closet, though that be not at all far fetched, gay marriage and dumb show and noise; They fear these because they are told by the ruthless to do so.

New laws.

Enacted in back rooms;

Then under threat of thousands of pages of cynical hubris; Enacted by congress into untenable law;

We are presented a bill far too high; A bill for the costs of our demise; Cast into indentureship into perpetuity;

What an insult to our forefathers and those who died to make this country what it once was;

Illusive greatness; Slipping through our fingers.

A country able to weather the slings and arrows and the assaults on it by the granite fortress of its Constitution;

Beginning its long, relentless decline with the assassination of a president; Swept under the rug; The crime of the century, calmed with the most bizarre platitudes; Contrived for the most simple of mindless dolts; The crime of the century; Yet too easily forgotten; Making the next and the next add infinitum; Assaults becoming easier with no fear of any "law and order" taking them to task;

Knowing no matter what horror perpetrated, would be swept under the rug;

As we sink further and further into a lawless banana republic of kangaroo justice, with a military, capable and eager to take over the world.

Dr Strangelove would love our present circumstances and the diabolically strange opportunities it presents to the fascist, the masses of the dumb, so easily used.

After 61 years; 1984 is coming to pass; In a back to the future kind of way; Forming another facet of the coming disasters.

Roller ball was indeed prescient; Hats off to corpworld for its unbridled, lawless coming of age with no attempt whatsoever to stop its outrages.

Kudos to those prescient folks who warned us of these looming dangers; Almost a century ago; For which no one but the Machiavellian took note.

Thumbs down to those of us who did not, though loudly warned, take heed of the hypnotic dangers of the tube and its gargantuan opportunities for the lulling propaganda of those who owned it under newspeak law;

Even though it is we who actually own the airwaves, like much else corpworld lays claim to and meekly condoned by a government of creepy worms;

Hypnotic, especially to the gray matter impaired; The purposely uneducated and the dumbed down; To those angry; Who's ignorance too easily ridiculed take revenge.

Who could have guessed they would one day form a countless mass of the brainless dead, petulantly, and angrily screaming to be heard; That their shortcomings not be true; That; As they could not; No one would or could, see those deadly limitation;

Except those who would use them to their own treasonous ends.

Who would have thought the brainless dead; By the machinations of the string pullers; Would rule a country with enough nuclear weapons to destroy the world?

And would indeed, threaten the world.

For which we have been warned.
