A Republican congressman accused the White House and Congress of being "complicit" in the sex trafficking of undocumented minors on Monday.
In comments apparently prompted by the rising number of unaccompanied minors that have been crossing through the U.S.-Mexico border in Southern Texas, U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) said the debate over comprehensive immigration reform is prompting undocumented minors to enter the United States illegally. Railing against the possibility of comprehensive immigration reform, Gohmert went on to argue that legalizing the status of undocumented minors wouldn't help the economy because children do not pay taxes.

On opening night of his new show replacing Letterman, we have the slap-pee and slapper do the slap.
The Slap-pee is Rove or Hannity or Oreilly or Cheney or whichever well known rightwing disgusting pig, Limbaugh, etc, is willing to be slapped on live television in exchange for giving the money we raised over the year preceding on the internet to his favorite charity or political candidate.
For a year we have a website called "Slap Rove" or something, you go there and donate $5 or $10 or $10,000 to see this happen, we also run a contest to pick the slapper.
Colbert's show is not going to appeal to righty anyway, so we wont really piss anybody off.
Whaddya think?

(15,226 posts)Given that Louis body is not covered with burns he managed to learn not to touch hot things. Cognitive development for Louis must have ended before the age of 8 years well before the development of abstract thought.

It's getting to the point where being able to pass both a rudimentary exam covering history, science and human biology and a mental health examination should be requirements for anyone wanting to serve in national government.
