Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas has never met an idiot argument he didn't endorse, and yesterday, after the Ninth Court of Appeals deemed Prop H8 unconstitutional, Gohmert took to the house floor to discuss sperms, and eggs, and plumbing:
"The court, as I understand it today, struck down a law that said marriage is between a man and a woman. It's interesting that there are some courts in America where the judges have become so wise in their own eyes that they know better than nature or nature's God....Nature seemed to like the idea of an egg and a sperm coming together because of pro-creation. Apparently [the judges] thought the sperm had far better use some other way biologically, combining it with something else. But the voters of Iowa came back and said you know what, if you're not smart enough to figure out actual plumbing...then perhaps we need new judges, and that's what they did."
And for this bit of illogical lunacy, Louie Gohmert, asshatted, wingnutted, goosestepping, bigoted, homophobe and serial dumbass from Texas, gets the ISBL Asshat of the Week award.

ReplyDeleteA well-deserved award for any idiot that doesn't understand the difference between getting married and getting knocked up.
