Peak Wingnut? Smeghead Into The Lead!

Whilst writing my last TL;DR post, an expected contender for the Wingnut Warrior trophy made his play, and a strong one, Louie's going for broke. 

For our audience at home, we will say that with this all-in strategy, he better be careful, if one of the distinguished gentlemen of the republican party in a flail fight tries to match his bid, Mr. Gohmert will have to go very far afield to top this. He's got a reputation as a banger, and is clearly dissociative, but this one is stone fucking out there:

From TP.
GOHMERT: What was all the rage a year and a half ago? It was the Arab Spring and how wonderful it was! This administration really embraced blowing out Mubarak – yes, do it up by all means – getting rid of Qaddafi, it wasn’t enough to send verbal accolades, this administration sent planes and bombs and support to oust Qaddafi so that al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood could take over Libya.





IT BURNS! THE CRAZY, IT SO BURNS!

    3. Vanity magically appears in bathroom.

    Gots to empty the empty bin in my brain once in a while - and if'n I don't snark on the Gohmster, I am pretty sure, according to the tenets of all major religions and freemasonry, that I go to a dark place with all the great musicians. So, all good.

  3. Many years ago, during a discussion at sadly, No, I disagreed with the ones asking if we had reached Peak Wingnut. It seemed to me at the time, that it is an asymptotic curve, which can never be reached. Every time you think you're there, somebody gets wingnuttier.

    I have seen nothing in the intervening years that invalidates my opinion.

  5. To a non-tourist, how does The Safe House rate?

    When I was in college in Eau Claire it was the Stone's Throw, saw The Sweet there in 1993, and the Joynt (Leo Kottke, Pat McGuigan).

    1. I think I was at the Joynt. Tough to tell; there may have been altered states involved.
