I’m almost salivating over the prospect of Louie Gohmert becoming the head of the GOP congressional majority (i.e., “Speaker of the House”). Charles P. Pierce brought this possibility to my attention. Google gohmert idiot for a sense of why this would be both horrifying and strangely appealing. It seems likely that the demise of the right-wing, fundagelical, Republican party would be facilitated by Gohmert leading the GOP congressional party. The question is whether our nation can survive the short-term damage in order to take advantage of the long-term gains.
