Rep. Louie Gohmert: ‘Time To Bomb’ Iran

Posted by | July 23, 2014 14:31 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories War & Peace


Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert, never one to be coy, believes the way way to deal with the Israel/Gaza crisis is, of course, to bomb Iran.

“Mr. Speaker, in Israel right now, there is a battle for peace,” he said Tuesday on the House floor. “They are being embattled by a group who teach their children, in the educational materials we help pay for, to hate Jews, to hate Israelis. They teach the people to hate Israelis as well. They name streets and holidays after people who kill innocent people.”

“It is time to cut off every dime of American money going to anyone who has any kind of relationship with Hamas or those killing in the Middle East, and especially in Israel,” the congressman continued.

“It is time to bomb Iran’s nuclear capabilities,” Gohmert concluded. “It is time for the United States, if we are not going to stop Iran’s nukes, then let Israel do it. A friend will not put another friend in this kind of jeopardy.”

      He is a reflection of his district. When the republicans redrew district lines they gerrymandered all the stupidest people into his his district.

        Not so sure about that. Perry is from another district and he’s no Einstein either. There are other brain trust rejects in the Texas delegation.

    What will he use as an offset in the budget to pay for this “war”?

    • granpa.usthai July 23rd, 2014 at 15:01

      the Siberian woodlands should about cover it?

      would be nice if one of his constituents would whisper in his ear…

      “pfisst – Lewis – you’re suppose to be representing your district in Congress, not a foreign country.”

      but I did catch myself humming – “wouldn’t it be nice”

      • Dwendt44 July 23rd, 2014 at 20:50

        Many conservatives love to support Israel. They think it’s a good place to keep all the Jews.

        • fahvel July 24th, 2014 at 03:29

          that’s less tongue in cheek than it appears.

    • Eric Trommater July 23rd, 2014 at 15:17

      “Pet Sounds” came to mind.

      I guess I just wasn’t made for these times…in my head constantly.

    Well I guess we’ll be getting rid of every road sign that has Andrew Jacksons name on it then eh?

    Well if Louie’s brains was fuel he would not have enough fuel to power an piss ants motorcycle to do a figure eight inside of a cheerio hole.

    Deere soon to be x-lobbyist of Congressperson Gohmert,
    before receiving your separation notices, please inform Lewis that the center of world politics (and ‘gratuities’ thereof) has shifted more towards the center of Beijing, CHINA.
    Being that Iran now is a major provider of China’s needed power source, he may wish to ask them (politely of course) if it’s OK, first?

    The Isrealies do the same thing. If he wants to start a war, he and his sons should be the first to go.

    Our education has failed! I say that because there are still people voting for people like Gohmert.

    • Dwendt44 July 23rd, 2014 at 20:48

      It Texas don’t forget. Many there still live in the ‘old west’ cowboy movie type society. The Winchester in the back window of the pick-up, high school drop outs, cowboy boots with silver toe tips.
      You get the picture.

  17. Eric Trommater July 23rd, 2014 at 15:16

    The sad thing is there are a group of saner people than Gohmert proposing the same thing.

    • R.J. Carter July 23rd, 2014 at 15:19

      “Hey, this group hates Israel and is launching rockets at it. Obviously we need to bomb this other much bigger group that hates Israel but has nothing to do with the current conflict — just in case.”

        Yes RJ we all read Kristol’s editorial in The Weekly Standard last week. No need to reprint it here.
