Louie Gohmert's Big Day

In today’s edition of “Heroes of the Right”, we proudly present for your consideration one Louie Gohmert (R-Of Course) who found himself shouting utter nonsense in public—including once in the well of the House—not once, but twice today. Cameras were there to capture it all. We’ll begin with today’s teabagger rally, an event attended by 1.2 or 1.3 million people according to FuxNews. (You can watch the video and estimate the size of the throng for your own self):



Oh, he's done. Sorry, I was busy chanting "self-executing" over and over and over again. (I am not sure why, but I suspect that's exactly what every one of the right-wing idjuts he was talking to, er, yelling at, was thinking, too.) For the record, and I'm guessing you'll hear more about this on select media outlets like Countdown and The Rachael Maddow Show because I've been listing to Randi Rhodes talk about it all afternoon, when the Rethugs controlled the House, the used the self-executing provision of the rules 40 times under Newt Gingrich and another 114 times under Dennis Hastert.

So, surprise, surprise, Gomer; the right is lying to you. Again and as per usual.

Meanwhile, Louie of Texas wasn't done with the mouth-shooting off thing. See if you can figure this out because I sure as hell can't. Maybe it's because the good representative (think his village is short an idiot?) is from Texas and is, as such, a product of the Texas public school system.



Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot. What, exactly is that all about? Perhaps the commentator "comicbookguy" over at Wonkette has said it best:

"Hang on, so if someone eats the bill, he will vote yes? Am I the only one thinking, crazy as it is that’s one more vote? This could be the tipping point. Come on Obama, step up to the plate! What are you willing to do for the American people?"

Gotta run but I can't. My head is spinning, you see.
