I don't think Rep. Gohmert quite understands what the term "false flag" means. That said, I'm pretty sure that's the least of his understanding problems.

Yes. The idea of a government trying to put in place policies to help all of it's citizens have a better quality of life, is so evil, so vile and so anti-Christian that the only explanation for it is PRIVATE ARMY. I am sick of these stupid egotistical self important assholes. There was a time when i use to defend the right wing to critics, especially abroad, by explaining they are not evil or stupid, they believe they are doing what's best. But after all this shit thats been going on and after seeing my Mother in laws joy at the disaster in Japan because she believes it has made them so demoralized and desperate that it will force them to let go of their heathen beliefs and accept Christ. #$%@ THEM.

*sigh*

Another example of what passes for political thinking here in Texas. Damn it, Gohmert, stop making the rest of us look like ignorant, paranoid rednecks.

Gohmert is another gift to the nation from Tom DeLay.


For most of its history, [Texas's First congressional district] was based in Texarkana. However, in a controversial 2003 redistricting orchestrated by then-House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, Texarkana was drawn out of the district and moved to the neighboring Fourth congressional district. Lufkin, Tyler and Longview were added in its place.

The district was predominantly rural for much of its history, and thus was far friendlier to electing Democrats to Congress even as most of Texas swung toward the Republicans. The district's four-term Democratic incumbent, Max Sandlin, was a particularly severe critic of the DeLay-led redistricting effort, claiming that lumping rural areas with urban ones stifled the voice of rural voters. Indeed, the 2003 redistricting made the district more urban and Republican, especially with the addition of the Republican strongholds of Tyler and Longview. Sandlin was heavily defeated in November 2004 by Republican Louie Gohmert, a longtime judge in the Tyler area. Gohmert is the first Republican to represent the district since Reconstruction.

I'm beginning to think that Rep. Gohmert is the author of the Timecube blog...

(click at your own risk...seriously.)

Onward health care soldiers? Is Goehmert this goddamn stupid? I know I shouldn't have asked that.

Is Goehmert this goddamn stupid?

Yes. Loudly and consistently.

I could have sworn that somewhere in the Bible it says not to rejoice at the misfortune of others. Also, somewhere else in there, it says that the rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. By extension, natural events, including natural disasters, are "rain". These things just happen, and they are not in any way God's way of telling Man to Believe. Or Else.

But really, this isn't the RW of, say, Romney. It isn't even the RW of the Mennonites. It's just human nature's not so pretty side. All of us are subject to the temptation to gloat when the 'other side' takes a hit.
