and today's right wing nut is no surprise,
For a while there I thought Rep. Louie Gohmert had fallen down a well. We hadn't heard from him in so long. And it was so nice. But America's Dumbest Congressman is back, and his latest efforts at saying things via his word-hole show are devoted to explaining how the Obama administration and Congress are "complicit" in the sex trafficking of children.
“Well, because of the talk of amnesty in this town and because we do not have a secured border, then this administration and this Congress also is complicit in helping lure people into sex trafficking, into horrible situations, even people trying to cross deserts who don’t make it,” Gohmert said during a speech on the House floor. “That should not be.”In one case, he said, “a 3-year-old had someone convince them that they needed to try to get here.”
the premise doesn't even sound plausible, convince a 3 year old to come here and where would he become privy to this info?
Um, OK. But the real problem with the children—and Gohmert has reserved his spittle for the children, because the Obama administration policy of not deporting them at a sufficiently blistering pace has really wedged itself deep in wherever such things get wedged, in Louie Gohmert—is that the little bastards don't pay enough taxes. He was promised they would pay taxes!
“We have people saying, oh, if we just legalize everybody that is here, all of this new tax money will come flooding in,” Gohmert continued. “There can be no debate that young children who are not working, even if they are legalized, for those who make the argument, gee, look at all the tax money that the Federal coffers will be getting if we just legalize everybody here, that is a bogus argument.”
I can't quite parse out what the man is going on about, since he's saying it so, um, stupidly, but he appears to be peeved that someone told him the 3-year-olds would be paying taxes and ah-ha, he's discovered that that isn't true. Or maybe he's saying that the young children should be working? Or—you know, this may be a lost cause. Gohmert speaks in a register that normal humans just can't hear.
the republicans IO shoud never hold any office anywhere if the keep producing prime idiocy within their more vocal ranks their base will soon become aware of the merry go round they are on same stops with each revolution except they seem to get more and more unbelievable and leaves you wondering if this were true commonsense tells you nobody will except 3 year old immigrants causing a problem at the borders and in the work force. DUHHHH!He added that children would continue to come to the U.S. as long as Homeland Security continued to provide “three hot meals, a bed to sleep,” and “if we can’t find your parents illegally in the United States, then we will find you some other parents, people are being drawn in.”“It is time to stop the luring of young children across the border by the activities of this administration,” Gohmert insisted.
