Representative Louie Gohmert says Obama is part of something called the ‘Ayatollah Caucus.’
Yesterday on “Washington Watch,” Rep. Louie Gohmert criticized President Obama and Vice President Biden for declining to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he came to speak to the U.S. Congress just before the Israeli elections.
Gohmert told the Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins that while he attends Obama’s speeches out of “respect for the office” even though he rarely agrees with what the president is saying, Obama and other administration officials “disrespected Israel and disrespected the leader of Israel, it was not about the man.”
“If you named a caucus by who it helped, you’d have to name this one the Ayatollah Caucus,” Gohmert said of Obama, before hailing Netanyahu as the “Esther for the United States.”
Seriously: You’d think even the halfwits would wake up to how cynically they’re being lied to and used, and the country ill-served. There is something grievously amiss when sewage like this, from a member of the House of Representatives, doesn’t make him forever unwelcome amongst decent people.
