Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) warned this week that refugees who he called undocumented Democrats fleeing violence in Central America could be bringing diseases like Ebola into the United States.
This administration doesnt have the desire, doesnt have the will to actually stop it, Gohmert told radio host Tim Constantine on Wednesday. Because they see people coming across as undocumented Democrats. And so, they want to keep the surge of people coming in illegally, even though it includes a big spike in Other-Than-Mexicans, OTMs as we call them.
It includes a spike in people from countries where terrorism abounds, he continued. We have people coming in from countries where Ebola is located.
And, gee, since theyre coming across our border, and you know, they dont get checked, and most of them dont get really thoroughly checked, they could be coming in with disease that we simply do not need.
The Texas Republican insisted that he was not fear mongering.

(27,787 posts)Step 1: Have some one who looks Hispanic cough near him such that he notices.
Step 2: Create a fake news page on the web. Make the headline: "Illegal Immigrant dies of Ebola".
Step 3: In the story indicate that anyone who was near this man, particularly on the same day as Gohmert, and in the same location, is in grave danger.
Step 4: email the story to Louie Gohmert's staff.
Step 5: Watch the hilarity that follows.
