  • One is a group of CONSENTING human beings who are not harming anyone and the other abuses animals. There's the difference.

  • Why is it that beasiality is wrong, but every elected official in Washington D.C. screwing us all over is perfectly acceptable?????

  • When a dog rapes a goat, we find it funny. When a dog rapes a human or vice versa, we find it horrifying.

  • That hitler comparison is getting old; all things considered

  • Louie Gohmert is a 100% nut job.

    He also went on Anderson Cooper yelling about terror babies. When AC asked for evidence, he had none.

    Gohmert is an embarrassment to all intelligent Americans.

  • A dysfunctional representative voted into office by a dysfunctional governor.

  • This is not in the slightest funny. Comparing two consenting individuals who love each other to having sex with an animal is completely idiotic.

  • makes sense to me. Who are we to judge people have to sex with animals.

    hey, eating poop is considered normal isn't it?

    about as normal as puting your dick in a mans ass.

  • @HandyMan101 Please let go of life and purge the world of your unbridled stupidity.

  • here is a quick fix:

    - Lower consent age to 6 years

    - any animal that is killed for food or clothing, is assumed automatically consent to sex with a human

    - allow dead bodies to be sold as property/objects by family

    and there you go. Now bestiality, pedophilia, necrophilia is now not taboo nor illegal.

    easy huh? simply legalize a dysfunctional behavior and now its not illegal nor immoral

  • Ooooooo WOW that sounds like fun! *drooling*

  • What a sick son of a bitch. Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go fuck a goat...

  • Gohmert is an idiot. Hitler crushed the gay community in Berlin. In that light people like Gohmert remind me of the little guy with the mustache.

  • "some would say sounds like fun.." HAHAH

  • sodomy is high risk behavior; common sense tells you that you do not stick your penis into the place out of which excrement comes; but that is not obvious to people any more

  • @1Urganda1 Sex in general is high risk behavior then. Shame on you for sticking your penis in a hole that urine comes out of. And I know you're not putting it up the urethra, but damn man. Morality is subjective, and as long as it's consensual why do you care what people are doing in the privacy of their own homes?

  • Old people... Kids it's time to put dad in a home

  • @oozyb1 If Dad's in a retirement home, who'll look after the kids? XD

  • WHAT the FUCK? This guy is unbelievable.

  • High fives should be illegal. I mean, what if instead of high fiving someone, you were slapping a fetus? What if you high five a nuclear device? See how those things are bad? Therefore, high fiving should be illegal.

  • lol this guy created a bemuda triangle of an argument

  • this guy's so fuckin finny!

  • Comment removed

  • those arent orientations. they are paraphillias.

  • Louie, I hate you.

  • Those who oppose homosexuality because they fear it will lead to zoophilia and pedophilia always fail to demonstrate how they are related. They don't understand that the reasoning behind opposition to zoophilia and pedophilia does not apply to homosexuality. The only connection between them is varying degrees of societal opposition. Thus, those who invoke the slippery slope argument are essentially arguing, "I oppose it because I oppose it." This is why it is considered a logical fallacy.

  • If the slippery slope argument is the only one you can make against an act, then you must concede that you have no qualms with the act itself, only with what it may lead to. If you oppose homosexuality on these grounds, you should determine why you oppose zoophilia and pedophilia, and ask yourself whether or not the same reasoning applies to homosexuality. You'll find that there is nothing linking homosexuality to zoophilia or pedophilia, other than the the fact that people oppose them.

  • Boy,this Gohmert is a real embarassment to my state.I'm sure it will turn out that he's a homo.It always does.Everytime one of these Southern faggots goes after gays it turns out that they themselves are homo's.Never fails.Mark Foley, Larry Craig..Everytime one of our Southern Preachers is on a mission against Gays? Yup, turns out the honorable preacher is a 'Peter Puffer'. Why don't their wives just come out and tell everyone?I guess the whores love the money I'm sure. It changes everything

  • Gohmert is an ignorant old goober who spouts off bizarre lies as if they are facts. He has no credibility or dignity or decency whatsoever.

  • well i don't agree gays being compared with hitler, but i do agree with them being compared to beastiality.

  • @ricosuavable How is consensual sex anything like screwing a helpless animal that cannot speak up as to whether or not it agrees with what is happening to it?

  • @benjaminbaker85 Because when gays have sex they have crazy monkey sex.

  • @ricosuavable I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

  • @benjaminbaker85 No im serious gays are evil monkeys.

  • There is only 4 forms of orientation, Heterosexual, Homosexual, Bisexual and Asexual ( as in no sexuality, not the form of reproduction). But he seems to think Necrophilia is some type of orientation, way to go Texas school system.

  • The representative certainly does not articulate his point very well, however, all he is saying is that there is a certain ambiguity to the phrase 'sexual orientation' which could allow scope for courts to interpret the wording in ways beyond what is intended in the legislation. He never compares homosexuals to zoophiles nor to hitler. Whether it is a valid point or not the host takes the footage grossly and unprofessionally out of context.

  • im 1 of the most liberal guys in the world but 2 me its like beastiality as well.

  • @GitanoRenegado I guess that makes you a massive dumbass, as well as an illiterate bigot.

  • Bush and Cheney are squeezing my bandwidth!

  • derp his words were probably twisted around :/

  • The results of underfunding education in that state....or turning curricullum responsibility over to the idiotic evangelical fundamentalists

  • what a freak

  • SEX WITH ANIMALS and CORPSES??? THIS GUY IS WHAT WE WANT TO TAKE CONTROL OF CONGRESS..SERIOUSLY???

  • @photolitherland

    this dude is retarded!!!!!

  • I voted for him because I'm oriented toward corpses!

  • These wingnut teabaggers want the Government to decide for you what you can and can't do in your private life. Gohmert Pyle is just another fearmongering liar.

  • Gotta love Texas politicians---they always stick their own feet in their own asses.

  • what a joke of a subject. lol

  • Homosexuality, beastiality and pedophilia are all perverted.

  • Comment removed

  • America, greatest country on the planet. Texas, greatest state in the US.

    No other country can boast being tolerant enough to have Down Syndromes as their Representatives.

    P.S: was that little guy with a moustache thing a beyond the grave pot shot at Freddie Mercury?

  • I respect TYT in the extreme! But, man, I hope you do understand that almost EVERY politician is subjugate to the SAME ELITIST corporate TYRANTS. Whether one chooses to see this or not is far beside the point of; Democrats (which are my choice as lesser evil) and republicans (lower-case in the extreme!)singing from that same hymnal. Something from WITHOUT, but is Universally Acknowledged to be authentic, is going to be the ONLY WAY HUMANITY SURVIVES and Moves to the Next Stage of Evolution.

  • What's the sexual orientation of anyone got to do with the economic well being of a country? I don't understand Gohmert's comparison, or even his comparison of homosexuality to Hitler? It is just a filbuster to fill in time on the floor, he doesn't make any sense at all. Economics would mean getting Americans jobs, getting companies to set up shop here and hiring Americans instead of shipping jobs overseas. How long can Americans buy if we don't have jobs to make the economy run well?

  • I dont support homosexuality but this man is either a complete idiot or he wrote this speech in under 10 mins.

  • People this dumb scare the shit out of me.

  • LMAO! It's funny because you know how harmless he was "trying" to be! AHAHHAHA

  • Compare the way he pronounces "orientation" to the way the voice shouted "baby killer" at Rep. Stupak: Orien-tayi-shun / Bayi-bee -- i think it's him.

  • lol this guy is so out of office next term

  • LOL! I can't believe that people like this get actually voted into office...

  • I understand careful wording i mean Texas accidentally banned all form of marriage when banning gay marriage so i guess now they are extra careful now and yes be careful when wording orientation to make sure that it doesn't include pedophila........how ever this fucktard *sigh* well what could we expect from Taxes.

  • oh right, I get the joke now. Sorry for spamming.

  • ...bestiality* and hitler.

  • What the fuck is the connection between "losing morality" and "economic instability"?

  • (long sigh)

    honestly, this may be extreme but I feel like, just wait for all the old folk traditionalists to die then we can make some actual progress

  • Let's show some compassion - the guy's obviously trying to dissuade himself from pursuing some deep-seated desires.

  • Secret desire like dressing up in leather like the SS?

    Nazi Germans gave up their liberty and decided to commit hate crimes on various peoples including homosexuals.

    Beating someone to death because they are homosexuals is just wrong, like beating people to death because they are of different religions or skin colors. Hate crime bill does not create "privileged" group, like getting a beatdown is something special - perhaps in that senator's bizzarro world of heter-homo relations.

  • Unlike animals or children, competent (living) adult humans are able to give good consent to sexual activity. Gohmert does have one point , which he obviously addresses badly. When you start looking at the motives behind crimes in the way you do when you create a "hate crime," you crack the door to creating "ideological crimes": crimes based as much or more on thought than on conduct and to creating privileged groups. What seems his basic thesis is sound. But gays= economic depression. WTF?

  • I am always surprised at how far in politics idiots like this Gohmert can progress. There are some bright people in politics and then there are a bunch of these others, in both major parties. I mean a bunch of people voted for this ass. Wow!

  • You sound like Bill Cosby

  • that's what happens man ^_^

  • LMAO!! "some people might think that sounds like fuun"

  • who talked him into giving this speech? Wow.

  • But, fortunately, people are waking-up to their bullshit.

  • All republicans ugly idiots with twisted brains. Good example.

  • ...so are democrats.

  • wow, he doesn't make any sense

  • bestiality*, that is

  • Gohmert seems to have the inteligence of Gomer.

  • All the examples he's given (children, animals, corpses) run into the problem of consent. Minors cannot legally give consent. Animals are not capable of giving consent. And obviously, corpses cannot consent (unless it was in the person's will, which would be an interesting court case.)

  • WHAT? I was with you up until the corpse consent thing.

  • HAHA @ the part about corpses :P

  • Oh my god, this man is a jooooke.

  • This guy is extremely smart.

  • I ..am SOOOOOOOOOO SICK..of American politics breaking down into comparisons of Hitler and Nazis. There is no word that I can say that will communicate how much I am sick of it. if I hear someone say Hitler, or Nazi, or make allusion to them I automatically stop having the communication with whoever said it.

  • So... what you're saying is that you're being a Nazi about what sort of arguments you will listen to?

    =D

  • Sure Phoboskomboa.. I suppose I am a bit of a nazi when it comes to that..LOL

  • people that come up with orientation ideas like that are the real perverts...how can anyone even think that being gay means sleeping with dogs or dead people?..or compare hitler??? when he actually killed gays.....

  • Gohmert challenges Hitler for ultimate hate monger!

  • Texas is rapidly turning blue & Barack carried the major Texas Cities of Houston, San Antonio, El Paso, Austin & Dallas.

    But Barack didn't win Rep Louie Gohmert's rural East Texas district as it's mostly invested with rednecked racist who scream out, "We ain't like 'em damn gays" & later can be found screwing their cousins, if not there sisters.

  • THE BOTTOM LINE: sex is a consensual act between two adults. This definition flies in the face of this conservative senator's false argument about 1) bestiality, 2) pedophilia, 3) tree fucking, and 4) corpse fucking. Unless the corpse's family gave permission, but they wouldn't do that over their dead body!

  • @NewYorkViolets

    HAHA and do you think that definition has stayed the same throughout all time? The Puritans would have said they have to be a married man and women, and the Ancient Romans would have said doing it with a young boy is A-OK.

  • @NewYorkViolets Consensual consensual, thats what homosexuals have to justify their behavoir. So was it a choice for a pedophile to like children, for a man to be attracted to animals etc was it a choice or were they born like that.

  • SOUNDS LIKE FUN!!!!

  • Butt/strap-on sex with consenting adult in the privacy of own home, mass murdering millions of innocent people, fucking a helpless animal that cannot fight back, let alone consent... yeah, totally the same thing. Really? Jesum lord mercy how can people be this fucking stupid.

  • Easy. Just go to church every Sunday.

  • @Bobbiethejean What if animals can talk and consent to sex, does that make it ok? since all homosexuals have to justify their lifestyle is the consenting argument.

  • @rotena25 I demand that you justify your lifestyle to me and if you can't, then I will treat you like shit, deny you rights, discriminate against you, and mock you mercilessly.

  • @Bobbiethejean "Jesum lord mercy how can people be this fucking stupid." that what i'd like to know how can someone be so stupid to not realize why homosexuality is compared to beastiality THEY ARE PERVERSIONS! how can one POSSIBLY make it any clearer? when has an animal EVER consented to: being turned to a burger be aritfically enseminated turned into a coat castrated enslaved in a farm use a leash etc. etc.
  • @phatso1986 Having sex with another consenting human adult is NOT the same thing as having sex with an animal and to play it that way is beyond idiotic.

    Comparing any of the aforesaid points to the process of creating and eating food is a new height of idiocy.

    You are especially fucking stupid. Congratulations. Just when I think I've seen every possible level of idiocy, you came along and proved me wrong.

  • @Bobbiethejean

    "consent" is a legal term, thus no basis for the validation of a dysfunctional behavior

    try again

  • @phatso1986 "Dysfunctional behavior" is a medical term and subject to change. NO legitimate medical organizations in America today classify homosexuality as a dysfunction, only bigoted, ignorants like YOU do.

  • @Bobbiethejean I don't see how it is stupid. In fact, I find it illogical to say it is wrong to bone an animal or have it bone you because it cannot consent, but then say its okay to kill and eat said animal. Either an animal's cosent matters or it doesn't. If it does matter, then we cannot consume them for food. Sounds like to me you just think it is gross, so you make up illogical "reasons" to say it is wrong. Same with people against consensual incest.

  • Move to Texas., feellike a genius

  • i'm sexually oriented towards committing hate crimes.  now what?

  • Off to jail, lawyer who flunked out.

  • the sad thing is that I know people who think this way....

  • Something does not compute.

    Giving rights to gays...equals LOOSING liberty?

    Makes perect sense!!

  • It's called Republican logic!!

  • who did that hate-monger hate?

  • Gohmert is exactly the kind of conservative who salivates when they think of a nice, juicy, thick dick but then hates himself and other gays for thinking such "impure, immoral thoughts".

  • So, wait, by trying to stop hate crimes, you end up being nazis, a party dedicated to hate crimes?

    Lol christian logic.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh, man, now I have had it with the Republicans going against Gays and saying it's of the devil's work and full of crap! I might do a video chat about gay right issues and blast Rep. Gohmert for his blatant comment. If Chip n' Dale were gay and they were together, does that count as beastiality? Maybe Gohmert can answer that question and you'll get the same answer. Besides, the bill is long overdue. Gays must be protected, not persecuted!

  • when you see an advert for republicans (Obama=Socialist for example) click on it. I think they have to pay for every click.

  • That poor corpse never had a say in its right for sex.

  • He [Louis] speaks soooo slowly.. I cannot follow him! O_o

  • Who voted for that turd?

  • it's *bestiality*, not "beastiality"... don't ask me why i know that.

  • no, in fact hes right!

  • I really really really really hope Gohmert wasn't serious and he was just rambling.

  • I am amused and horrified at the propensity of conservatives to perpetually convince themselves that Nazis were everything they hate. They've got themselves to believe they were liberal, communist, gay, and anything else convenient, apparently ignoring that the Nazis were nationalist, corporatist, religious, and racist- three things that describe Neo-Cons and a fourth that describes a large portion of their base. They ignore that the Nazis killed liberals, communists, and gays.

  • CrawdaddyJoe...right on!! I've always pointed out how the conversatives slap the label of "Socialist" on everything they don't like, and you're right, they do the same with "Nazi."

    It's a convenient and effective way to frighten people away from meaningful dialogue...dialogue that would expose the many flaws in their dogmas.

  • Even more amusing is how they call Nazis socialist and socialists Nazis. Way to ignore history. Who again were the first people killed by the Nazis?

  • God I swear, religion is gonna be the death of Humanity. It's like a parasite. . .

  • Ahhhh....good old hick logic. Rep. Gohmert is clearly one brick short of a load.

  • Personally, I think he dropped the entire wheelbarrow full of bricks.

    Man...... hes a piece of mouldy bread.

  • so.... girl on girl action is like wanting to see a dude doing a dog....

    i want to put 2 girls gettin hot and steamy in front of guys like this and catch their hypocrisy....

    because he would NEVER actually like that sort of thing...

  • And the Bible is also just a bunch of fiction.

  • Actually it's part fiction, part historic accounts exaggerated into metaphors

  • tehant1liberal -

    homosexuality has not always been considered wrong. In some pre-Christian societies, it has been considered normal and a part of everyday life, just as heterosexuality is today. Being gay has only been thought of as "wrong" since the Bible was written, about 2000 years ago. By the way - comparing homosexuality to murder, theft, and rape is stupidity of the highest caliber.

  • look up the free-est creature in god's great creation.

    the Bonobo

  • Fuck god, and hey the Greeks weren't so against the buttsecks huh?

  • @tehant1liberal: I guess the Greeks didn't get the message. Apollo and Hyacinthus, Zeus and Ganymede, Achilles and Patrocles...the list goes on.

  • Gohmert is the epitome of a goober. short a few chromosomes.

  • Man....they blame the gays for everything......all I can say is wtf. That's all...just wtf...

  • its sad that in a country as diverse as the united states that there is a need for hate crime legislation. its not a good sign of hope. We have come a long way, but the hate for one another still goes on. hey, but atleast hate crime laws discourage violent acts.

  • Gohmert's commentary was among the most rambling, disjointed nonsense I've ever heard...full of loose associations and nonsensical, unrelated conclusions. The Republican Party is full of clowns like him and that's why they're high-stepping into irrelevance.

  • how is it that this retard in the video is a fuckin politician that probably makes 6 figs, and hes about as smart as your average hick. how can this be.

  • sorry, there were a lot of typos in that.

  • you know the worst thing about ignorance? you can fight it, but you can't win. no matter how stupid, they just don't want to be wrong, or they actually believe it because they were raised away or it's been drilled into their heads. the lose the inability to think for themselves. how can you fight ignorance that is cultivated by a parent or an idol? if you say that parent or idol is wrong, your the enemy. and that's politics.

  • Good Christian values!

  • its fine if you want your opinion to be heard, but you aren't going to sway anyone here by saying that. your opinion is the same as many people, but you can either go where it is appreciated or go were it is useful to your cause. (i can't believe i just gave advice to someone i disagree with 0_0)

  • A hatemonger speaking out against a hatemonger. So not allowing homosexuals to be targeted and beaten will take us down the path of Nazism, eh Gohmer? What a buffoon.

  • Why do conservatives always seem to jump from the subject of gays to beastiality. Hidden tendencies, much? Dude, just admit you like the cock and/or animals. Fucking Gomer

  • huh? he's just saying if the text says "sexual orientation" that can be widely interpretted. the whole idea of hate crimes are silly. you don't punish crimes because of motive, you punish because of the crime.

  • Crimes are punished because of motive. Look at the distinctions, ranging from involuntary manslaughter to first degree murder, for killing someone. The victim of involuntary manslaughter is just as dead as the victim of first degree murder, yet the punishments are substantially different.

  • we're at a semantic disagreement here. the way I'm looking at it, there is a difference between intent and motive. the differences between manslaughter and murder are intent. did you intend to kill the person, to injure them short of death. involuntary manslaughter is killing someone without intent to do so. Motive is completely different. Motive is like you killed your wife because she cheated on you or she burnt your toast this morning. Those are motives. Because someone is gay would be motive

  • Take manslaughter out of the equation and just look at the crime of murder where the intent is to kill, and still distinctions are made. Intentionally killing a law enforcement officer, for instance, has a higher degree of punishment than killing "average Joe" on the strret. Intentionally killing your wife upon finding her in bed with someone else can be considered a "crime of passion" and the degree of punishment will be lessened, So crimes are punished with motive being a consideration.

  • Re: the police officer vs avg-J, that's still not an issue of motive. Re: killing the wife, that's still arguably an issue of intent. If it was a premeditated action (intent to kill) vs a spur of the moment reaction (crime of passion, intent might not have been to kill but the severe reaction led to that person's death). I know motive is involved, I'm just saying there's no reason for it. If it's premeditated, it shouldn't matter if it is bc she cheated or makes bad toast, it's still murder.

  • You say it shouldn't matter, and that's my point-under current law (besides the hate crimes law) it does matter.

  • yeah, it matters because of stupid laws and more stupid laws on the way like the hate crime stuff. now it's not just whether your motive was because you hated the person, but why you hated the person. really? does it matter if you hate them because they're gay or have brown hair? what's the point? just send them to jail or the chair.

  • Someone doesn't know the difference between sexual orientation and philias.

  • I love it when these christphags (and yes, they would totally blow jesus and then hate themselves later.. then blow him again) talk about "liberties" when they'd be the first in line to take away the liberties of ANYONE who doesn't live the lifestyle they have chosen to live (publicly anyway).

    And now I know why he added a T to his last name. Because he IS A GHOMER.

  • Two things: (1) Bestiality, necrophiliac and pedophiliac behaviors lack the crucial element of *consent* while adult homosexuality does not. (2) Hate crimes go beyond the simple act of violence. It is not merely the act of violence which occurs, but the act of violence tells others of the targetted group "Don't screw with us, or the same will happen to you!"

  • That's why they hate these laws. It makes it harder and harder for a bully to live his or her lifestyle of choice. Aww, poor bullies. It's just getting harder and harder to turn hate into action these days, eh? Well, there's always law enforcement and public school gym teaching.

  • What bothers me most about Gohmert (he being a horse fucking m-to-f transitional nazi) is the hypocrisy.

  • You do realize that Gays were a targeted group of the Nazis, even more than the Jews were, right? When the Jews were let out of the camps, the gays were left in.

  • You know what that Republican wanted to say:

    "Germany gave up THE JEWS"

    Just like, I'm guessing "teh gays" need to give up their liberties in order to stimulate the economy?

    And what about the "some people may say sex with children is fun"????

    He's an idiot, pedophile.

  • ah ... this one was a gem of hilarity ... those republicans can be amusing little crackheads at times ...

  • HAHAHA  LOL!

  • that guy is a fkn moron! people are programed to like what they like from birth that means there is no wrong or right just opinions, so who gives a crap what this monkey eared douchebag thinks

    he governs his toilet as far as im concerned.

  • lol

  • Does anyone ever get up after someone has just said something like this and go "WTF Rep. Gohmert? Wtf?"?

    Because they should.

  • homosexuality is an abnormality the doctors haven't put there finger on yet..
