Obama creating a new Ottoman Empire
« on: September 23, 2012, 07:31:34 pm »
Not only did Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) say it, but he said it on the house floor.  No, he is not one of those people that thinks the President is not a Christian (he says it in the video), he just wants to do some birther-bating...Texas style.

So Obama is a Turk? Or is he saying that the president is about to start a 700 year empire?

I'm actually impressed that Gohmert even knows what the Ottoman Empire is.

Okay, the assumption that he actually knows what it is might be a bit steep, but I'm still impressed that he's ever heard of something that isn't in the bible.

Sounds like a dumb-**** filibuster attempt to me.
Whenever I hear a politician speaking strongly for or against abortion, all I hear is, "I have no idea how to fix the economy!"

You can't filibuster in the House--speakers are given time limits.

Tell it to that moron.  Why else would he be wasting taxpayers' time on something that has nothing to do with passing bills?

Historical fact: the Ottoman Empire was originally know as the Foot Stool Empire.  But the Foot Stoolians finally decided that the name was undignified.
I am an old man, and I've seen many problems, most of which never happened.

All good Christians use separate, small foot stools.

Obama shames our nation with his use of Ottomans.
