The sloppiness here is spiraling out of control. Remarkably, TPM has yet again embedded the wrong video.

Here’s a link to the clip:

Which is more silly? The Moon is made of cheese or Little Louie was Chief Justice on Texas’s 12th Court of Appeals.

yyyyyyyyyYYYYEEEESSSS!!! A mistake … an ERROR … A BLUNDER AND A GAFFE!!!

And … y … WHY? A finger that strayed from its intended destination? To much imbibing in gramma’s traditional Sunday Night Family Dinner fortified sherry? Or maybe heroin … or worse: some Grade AAA Colorado bud! Or, or, or, A MORAL FAILING!!

We here are so fortunate to have, not only readers who spot such … UNFORGIVABLE transgression; but who as well are fully prepared to pass condemnation over the entire enterprise.

So fortunate …

The point of my post was to provide people who are interested with the correct link. Geez, bite my head off why don’t you.

George W. Bush was president.

I caught this segment last night, and was rolling on the floor laughing. Colbert nailed it. However, Louie Gohmert, is about as low hanging a low hanging fruit as one could hope for. I believe in equal opportunity as much as the next guy, but should we really be electing mentally disabled people to Congress?

Gohmert was elected multiple times, serving for ten years as a judge in Texas. He certainly didn’t hide his stupidity any better from 1992 to 2002 than he does now. Says more about the Texas electorate than it does about Gohmert. If a barnyard rooster could promise opposition to anything remotely progressive or liberal Texas voters would find an office for it to serve in.

Speaking of hitting the fortified sherry…

Ah, we did. The position is Texas Land Commissioner, and the rooster soon to be occupying it is George P. Bush, W’s nephew, who unfortunately makes his uncle look like a mental giant. After Land Commisioner, George P. has his eye on the governorship. And then, who knows?
