During the Seventies, he lived in the Soviet Union as an exchange student. You'd think he'd be more sophisticated OR use it more to defend his right wing views....OR, maybe he's the most successful mole ever. For what purpose, I'm not sure.

This wasn't a campaign rally in Montana, but the similarity is striking.

All that was needed to make this complete was for Gohmert (Pyle) to pronounce "anonymous" as "anomenous."

Louie Gohmert will break the mold.

Henceforth, whenever someone passes gas, the term "fart" will no longer apply.

It will be said that someone just cut a Gohmert.

As always, the stench will be the clue.

Texas is pretty scary, but hey, we've got some for-profit concentration camps down there now! There's even one under an overpass. And, don't forget that Texas does have Gohmert.
