Sarah Palin Gives Her Support To Louie Gohmert For House Speaker

Source: TPM

Former GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin voiced her support this week for Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) to become the new House speaker.

During a Monday appearance on Fox News Channel's "Hannity," Palin told host Sean Hannity that Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) should be thanked for his service and should step down.

"I love Louie Gohmert," Palin said. "I love those Texan politicians who call it like they see it and are true conservatives. So, I'd be rootin' for Louie."

On Tuesday, Palin took to Facebook to appeal to House Republicans for their support of Gohmert.

Caribou Barbie comes down on the low end of the curve.

Louie Gohmert? Really? A guy who makes GW look like an intellectual?

There is no longer any question-- light does indeed bend in her vicinity.

Yes, that's correct, a total of 3 votes. One of which was his own.

I'd really appreciate it if Sarah would come out in support of Jeb Bush.
