Louie Gohmert: Obama's 'Hate Crimes' Against Christians Invite God's Judgment
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Thursday, 3/10/2016 1:40 pm
Yesterday on “Washington Watch,” Rep. Louie Gohmert railed against “the hate crimes by this administration” against conservative Christians, such as the nuns of the Little Sisters of the Poor. The Texas Republican and radio host Tony Perkins, the president of the Family Research Council, falsely claimed that the Obama administration refuses to offer religious groups an exemption from the Affordable Care Act’s contraception coverage requirement. In fact, the Little Sisters of the Poor is covered under its accommodation but refuses to fill out the form seeking an exception. Gohmert said that instead of focusing on America’s enemies, “they just choose to spend a great deal of their time going after Christians.” “We’ve never had a religion permit the kinds of hate crimes that this administration is in going after them and bullying them,” he added, claiming that the administration’s “bullying” is “the worst in our history.” After alleging that the ACA has “been used as a government tool to go after Christians and those whose religious beliefs are different from the president’s,” Gohmert went on to make the baseless claim that the White House tried to cut off aid to Ethiopia, Kenya and Nigeria until they legalized same-sex marriage: “This administration hasn’t confined their bullying just to this country.” Gohmert should not be considered an expert on hate crimes, as he once said the hate crimes law passed in 2009 would legalize pedophilia, necrophilia and bestiality while ushering in Nazism.
