Rep. Gohmert says judges who’ve struck down marriage bans ‘need some basic plumbing lessons’
Whacko Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert is at it again. The Raw Story reports that Gohmert attended a Heritage Foundation event today with fellow Republicans Michele Bachmann and Steve King:
One questioner asked the participants to comment on a federal judge’s ruling this week that an Oklahoma law banning same-sex marriage was unconstitutional.
Gohmert pointed out that some courts had found that there was no biological evidence that marriage should be limited to a man and a woman.
“They need some basic plumbing lessons,” he said. “For one omnipotent, omniscious, ubiquitous federal judge who is wise beyond his education to say — to make such a declaration about the law, I think, requires revisiting by each state and compliance with the U.S. Supreme Court.”
