John McCain calls Louie Gohmert a dummy

John McCain took a swipe at Texas Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert in an interview with NBC’s Brian Williams Wednesday night.

During the interview, Williams brought up a statement Gohmert made last week at the Values Voter Summit claiming that the Republican Arizona senator supports al Qaida. Speaking at an event at the conservative conference, Gohmert referred to McCain as a “guy who’s been to Syria and supported al Qaida and rebels.”

McCain told Williams that it isn’t worth responding to someone who “has no intelligence.”

“Sometimes… comments like that are made out of malice, but if someone has no intelligence I don’t view it as being a malicious statement,” McCain said. “You know, you can’t respond to that kind of thing.”

A request for comment from Gohmert’s office was not immediately returned.

The GOP has officially become the "Washington Generals" to the Democrat Party's "Harlem Globetrotters." They pretend to be playing 'real' politics while the Dems run around cheating, juggling, showboating and making them look like imbeciles.

And John McCain is the Washington Generals' point guard.

One more thing- Here is the most popular comment under this article:

"I flew with this joker in the U.S. Navy. He was too dumb to stay in the Naval Academy and he also flunked out of flight training several times. In each case, he was bailed out by his daddy, an admiral, who ORDERED his superiors to retain little Johnny. When he finally joined us on the USS Oriskany, he was still too dumb to fly and got himself shot down in short order. McCain is too stupid to realize how stupid he is."

Please note that McCain didn’t deny the allegation.

This man is crazier than a shit house rat. Look at his face, it’s not hard to see at all.

DEFUND the GOP.

Gohmert may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but you never have to wonder where he stands on issues important to conservatives. In that respect he has more integrity in his little finger than McCain has in his whole body.

The dummies are those that voted for this dinosaur.

[PATRIOT1876]

Talk about people in glass houses...

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Put McCain in front of a camera and microphone and something in his brain goes into short circuit mode.

[wku man]

"DEFUND the GOP."

Yes.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

I like Louie more everyday.

Thanks McCain, you just proved me right.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I’ve never seen people so happy to NOT be in charge.

McCain is the one that's several cards short of a full deck.

When I was in the Navy and working the 11pm to 7am watch, the NCO in charge would set up a TV with video tapes running. The most often viewed tapes were those involving McCain, jets, and fires on board aircraft carriers.

Don’t be fooled by the Texas talk. Gohmert is far smarter than McLame.

He was too dumb to stay in the Naval Academy...

Why lie?

My husband, DrO, graduated with McCain from the USNA in the "Class of 58' the Great."

My issue with Lou Gomert is that in last January he should have stepped up run for Speaker instead of throwing his vote away on someone who wasnt even in the House, let alone running.

And he should step up and challenge Bohner as speaker NOW that he passed this ~ 4th bill with Dem votes.

Megyn Kelly asked him about that the other night and he ditched the subject.

But he wont. He's is in too safe and comfortable position as a single House member. Just vote ‘no’ and Obama signs the bill anyway.

I notice both Mccain and Gomert got that special congressional Obama-care subsidy out of this ‘deal’ They both made out nicely, but not us.

My Labradoodle is far smarter than McCain. You set the bar pretty low.

I believe that you MRI’d his brain, you’d find a big tumor.

If McCain thinks that these kind of attacks elevate him, he is sadly mistaken. Cruz has lit a big smoke bomb that has smoked the Rinorats out of their holes.
