That is our secret plan, you know. First we legalize gay marriage, then we steal your dogs, then your guns, then we go to church and worship Satan in drag. This gem of a quote comes from a Tea Party conference call with GOP Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-Texas (where else?)), who’s never at a loss for words.
Gohmert is the brainiac who wants guns to be permitted on the US House floor.
Gohmnert is also the guy who came up with the idea of “terror babies.” Daniel Schulman at Mother Jones explains:
Recently, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tex.) has beens sounding the alarm about a new and insidious plot involving so called “terror babies.” Infants are sometimes known to be terrors in their own right, but this diabolical plan involves terrorists sending pregnant women into the US to birth their America-hating spawns. The mothers and their kids then return home where, the congressman says, the children “could be raised and coddled as future terrorists”— and later, “twenty, thirty years down the road, they can be sent in to help destroy our way of life.”
Or even worse, we could have gay terror babies — terror gaybies.
Like I said, Texas.
Back to bestiality. Gomert was asked during the Tea Party conference call about gun control, and here’s what he had to say:
Love the rouge, Louie.
In fact, I had this discussion with some wonderful, caring Democrats earlier this week on the issue of, well, they said “surely you could agree to limit the number of rounds in a magazine, couldn’t you? How would that be problematic?”
And I pointed out, well, once you make it ten, then why would you draw the line at ten? What’s wrong with nine? Or eleven? And the problem is once you draw that limit ; it’s kind of like marriage when you say it’s not a man and a woman any more, then why not have three men and one woman, or four women and one man, or why not somebody has a love for an animal?
There is no clear place to draw the line once you eliminate the traditional marriage and it’s the same once you start putting limits on what guns can be used, then it’s just really easy to have laws that make them all illegal.
RightWingWatch has the audio too, but it’s not embeddable.
Earlier in the call, Gohmert explains how Obamacare will force churches to hire cross-dressing Satan-worshippers (seriously). RightWingWatch has that audio too, go to their site to check it out.

Stupider shit has never been shat.
Living on $50 a week after your bills are paid is not all that hard in his defense. It only sounds out of touch because he makes so much normally. Welfare / unemployment insurance payments are about being able to get by while not making enough to want to stay on them forever.
He's not talking about that though, he's talking about the minimum amount the government says you need to live on for all expenses (utilities, food, travel, rent top up etc) when unemployed... ranges from £56 to £71.
the man who brought it up though was working full time and had that amount to spend after rent and utilities which is why it is that specific amount quoted.
For price comparison I live in a v cheap place in one of the cheapest towns to live in in the UK - rent is £375 pcm, if I was out of work I would get £593.66 pcm in which to pay everything- 375 rent plus electricity at £56pcm, water at £25 pcm, phone and net (required for new online only benefit system) £19pcm and £20pcm council tax. Leaving me £98.66 per month for food, toilet paper, and soap, plus anything else I might need to buy. But it would be paid every 2/4 weeks rather than monthly, making budgeting an absolute nightmare, and I would never be able to afford to eat anything except noodles. The man is a dipshit.
Oh. Well if he meant all costs including home, heat, electric, then he's full of shit.
it's literally everything but rent, there's a separate payment for that but most people have to top it up with other money as they only pay you a token amount (my rent is v low because of being a shithole with terrible heating and no insulation, average for a better - ie livable, non damp - property of the same size is more like £410-450pcm, etc)
I would get £66 a week towards rent if I lost my job but actual weekly rent is £86.50 so there is £20 a week gone straight away. Topping up rent like this is perfectly normal for those out of work as they recently cut the rent payment to those people even more. Not to mention the hassle if you lose your job while still in a contract etc. You also usually provide your own furnishings and appliances in this area so if your shit breaks, you're fucked.
There's also about 5 people actively looking for work for every vacancy opening over here so encouraging people to get into work doesn't really cut it, lol. 80% of them are still guaranteed to fail.
My friend in Stoke says it's closer to 70 people showing up to apply for every job opening. Needless to say, shit is fucked and bootstrapping doesn't work when there's not enough jobs to go around.

When Jindal said Republicans have to "stop being the stupid party" and his approval ratings plummeted, well, yeah.
Stupid is political cache for Republicans.
