East Texas' very own Goofy Gohmert has won yet another illustrious award as one of Advocate magazines 2013 Homophobes of the year. Vlad Putin came in at number one. Gohmert was down the list this year at 13, but still making Texas proud:
"Gohmert is a prime contender for the title of most homophobic member of Congress, and the Texas Republican is certainly one of the most outrageous and illogical. In his antigay rants this year, he hit the usual notes of linking marriage equality to bestiality and polygamy, gay Boy Scouts to pedophilia, and hate-crimes laws to the end of religious freedom. But he also showed great, uh, imagination in putting gun control and evolution into the mix. In one of his choice comments, he said that limiting the amount of ammunition a gun owner can buy is “kind of like marriage when you say it’s not a man and a woman anymore, then why not have three men and one woman, or four women and one man, or why not somebody has a love for an animal?” Later he rhetorically asked believers in evolution, “How does the mating of two males evolve the species upwards?"
