I thought he looked like someone who could have served in the Hitler administration. He has that Aryan look.

Yeah, we haven’t heard from the Gohmert boy in a while. Maybe he’s become so utterly confused, he’s been rendered speechless. That can’t do anything but help him.

So that then mean it was Trump’s vicious rhetoric against Latinos that caused this???

You people don’t understand. Pulse was full of “young” people, just like all of the bars frequented by Sessions. There’s no way most people there were gay because they looked too much like the “young” people Sessions sees in the bars, including the well maintained restrooms.

“at the end of the day we’re all Americans” and said Sessions’ heart grieved for everyone.

Republicans always need their staff and “handlers” to fix it for them, after they open their mouth.

Geesh…and these politicians in Congress earn 25 times the minimum wage?

So in other words, if it had just been gay people at the bar it wouldn’t be so bad?

Sessions’ communications director, Caroline Boothe, told TPM that
Newhauser’s quotes were correct but “taken out of context without the
background information.”

“What my boss meant to say was that there weren’t only gay
individuals at the club but people from all walks of life were present,”
Boothe said.

“My boss said it perfectly - you just suck at listening. But what he should have said …”

I used to think (well a couple years ago anyway) that Congress shouldn’t be paid unless they actually pass laws, considering McConnell’s 7 yrs of obstruction. But now given what Mr sessions has said I must revise my thinking. Praps they should be paid when they understand the concept of money. Money being somewhat more complex an idea than knowing that Pulse is a gay bar in Orlando.

OMFG! ___ Just when I thought Louie Gohmert and Michele Fiore were the dumbest MoFo Republicans I had encountered in some time. Sorry Lou and Mich!

Proving, once again, everything IS bigger in Texas, especially the damned morons.
And I just knew Texas wouldn’t let me down:

Look at this evil scum. Does anyone really like or trust him, at all? Yikes. Ogre? Witch? Scumbag? Zombie? Dracula’s daughter? Who is he really? If so, they belong in the same cesspool that he is already polluting. The perfect GOP member.

Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX) reportedly argued Tuesday that Pulse … was a “young person’s club” rather than a gay club.

He probably said that only because he’s been known to frequent the place.

“What my boss meant to say was that there weren’t only gay individuals at the club but people from all walks of life were present,” Boothe said.

Translated to:

“What my boss meant to say was that there weren’t only fags at the club but like normal people were there too. Also.” .Boothe said.
