Gohmert: Taking a paintball gun to a gunfight

U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert said today that President Barack Obama’s actions on Ukraine are the equivalent of showing up at a gunfight with a paintball gun.

The Texas Republican dismissed steps taken by the U.S. to sanction Russian officials in the wake of Russian moves to annex the Crimean region of Ukraine, telling “Fox & Friends” host Brian Kilmeade the president lacks firepower.

The video, posted by Gohmert's office:

if I wanted to feel like I'd just spent four minutes slamming my head into a wall I'd just slam my head into a wall.

Louis Gohmert is quite possibly the most stupid individual who has ever been elected to Congress.

If you've seen just how fucking stupid some of the historical idiots in that chamber were that's quite a statement on the lack of intellect from good ol' Louis. The fact that he will be reelected in a landslide reflects really well on the overall intelligence of the average individual in his district too.

I fuckin' hate Louis Gohmert.... just in case it wasn't clear before

The city of Longview told Ted Nugent to take a hike regarding him playing the 4th of July celebration. Of course they had to pay over $16K to break the contract.

I wonder how the people of Longview will blame Obama for $16,000 of the their tax dollars being flushed down the toilet?

They are quite useful as fertilizer. There haven't been any uses discovered for Gohmert yet.
