Gohmert fires back at Democrats on gun debate: 'You think we don't have hearts?'

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) fired back at Democrats during a markup on Thursday, slamming his colleagues across the aisle for their criticism of Republicans during the ongoing gun legislation debate.

The comments came during a House Judiciary Committee markup of a package of bills that seek to tighten gun control measures in the U.S., including raising the age to purchase semi-automatic rifles to 21 years old and placing restrictions on high-capacity magazines.

“I don’t think that it’s very effective for the children to have people on the other side of the aisle come in and accuse Republicans of being complicit in murder and that we put our right to kill over others’ right to live, to infer by rhetorical supposed questions, who are you here for, we must be here for the gunman, is an outrage,” Gohmert said.

“How dare you. You think we don’t have hearts?” he added.

3. Hey Louie, if you have a heart, prove it. You and your cronies.

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. You also have no brains, how you got a law degree is beyond me.

5. No hearts, and sold their souls to the Devil

[Ocelot II]

6. Neither hearts nor brains. Also no courage.

They're the Tin Woodsman, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion, all wrapped up in one package, and taking their orders from the nasty little orange man behind the curtain.

11. A wonderful Republican named Thatcher Longstreth once debated a fascist police commissioner

It was in Philadelphia, 1971. The police commissioner, a true sadistic oaf, asked Longstreth (shows you what a moron he was) in the debate about a time Longstreth had called the police commissioner all sorts of things, such as stupid, oafish, unfeeling, cruel and incompetent, and wanted to know why he had said that?

Longstreth fired back without missing a beat: "Well, if the shoe fits, Commissioner....." The rest of what he said was lost in the howls of approval from me and my two roomies (we were in college).

It was the first time I was eligible to vote, and the ONLY time in my life I ever voted for a Republican.

12. Of course you have a heart, you're alive and not Dick Cheney.

Whether or not we believe you're a emotionally stunted selfish sociopath who can't concieve of another's humanity other than what it's worth to you is another thing.
Emotionally, you don't have a heart, nor do you have a brain or courage.

So there.

14. Here Louie. listen to Eddie Fisher

[area51]

15. Gohmert, we don't _think_ you don't have hearts, we KNOW you don't.

You want a fascist takeover of the US.

[OAITW r.2.0]

16. Makes you wonder....why do people identify as Republicans?

The Party of Gohmert, MTG, Bobert ,and many more are becoming the face of the Republican Party. Is this what the sane wing of the Republican Party support?

Got a suggestion: Why don’t you shit in your hat and pull it over your ears?
