Don't Dismiss The Gohmert Factor In House Debt Vote FUBAR

You can understand why House Speaker John Boehner can't find the votes for his debt ceiling/budget cut bill when you realize he has to deal with one Louie Gohmert and a bunch just like him in the Republican caucus.

You may remember the very popular Texan Congressman said the BP oil spill compensation fund was Nazi-inspired, and supported by "useful idiots," warned that "terror babies" (video here, Gohmert is in the second segment), were being bred by illegal immigrants to attack America, and is now saying that Pres. Barack Obama chose the August 2nd default drop-dead date to coincide with the presidential birthday.
