Looks like Louie's gonna' be busy!

So, did you see Louis Gohmert march out of the hearings after the law professors got done telling the Congressional Committee that IQ45 had indeed committed impeachable offenses? Seems as though he had some advice for parents of kids considering going to law school:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/politics/trump-impeachment-hearings/louie-gohmert-dont-send-your-kids-to-harvard-or-stanford-law-school/2019/12/05/53ae497f-a1a1-4c08-a2b9-78f2d5e0ac94_video.html?

Yeah, he said "Don't send your kids to Harvard or Stanford Law School." Seems as though that's where some of the professors speaking "hang their shingle" - and Louie didn't like what they had to say.

So now it seems that he's gonna' be real busy reading an updated list of places NOT to go. In a "Letter to Congress from Legal Scholars" it seems that over 500 legal scholars from all over the country have signed a letter stating that indeed, IQ45 has engaged in impeachable offenses.

Here's how they started the letter:

"We, the undersigned legal scholars, have concluded that President Trump engaged in impeachable conduct."

But, it gets SO much better!

"Ultimately, whether to impeach the President and remove him from office depends on judgments that the Constitution leaves to Congress. But if the House of Representatives impeached the President for the conduct described here and the Senate voted to remove him, they would be acting well within their constitutional powers. Whether President Trump’s conduct is classified as bribery, as a high crime or misdemeanor, or as both, it is clearly impeachable under our Constitution."

This is SUCH a good read - don't pass it up.

And Louie, you're really gonna' need to rest up to have the energy to read ALL OF THOSE NAMES OF PLACES where Moms shouldn't send their children!

(so sings Willie)..........

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louie_Gohmert#Early_life_and_education

(snip)

He enrolled in Texas A&M University, receiving U.S. Army scholarship and earning a B.A. in history in 1975.

Gohmert received a Juris Doctor degree from Baylor Law School in Waco, Texas in 1977, where he was also class president.

Louis reportedly slept through all classes on respect, dignity, decorum, due process and honor........

He actually went to college? Did anyone actually ever listen to him speak? AND he was the class president?

OMG!!!!!!!!

There has to be something wrong with this picture!

Has there been an accident that caused brain damage?

Was there fraud in the academic institutions where he attended?

Maybe we should have our Secretary of Education look into that............
