AttackWatch: HR2911 Thugs The Title ‘American Jobs Act’

Posted on | September 15, 2011 | 9 Comments

by Smitty

Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert, in a nearly IowaHawkean bout of tee-hee-hee,

President Obama repeatedly asked members of Congress to pass the American Jobs Act last week. But when no Democrat filed Obama’s bill after he presented it to Congress, a conservative congressman swiped the name for his own legislation.

See, if you were to have somebody submit the legislation first, things like this may not happen. Alternative titles for the President’s legislation:

  1. The Steamer, Formerly Known As The American Jobs Act
  2. S^*t My Union Owner Says
  3. @AttackWatch Bait

In related Texan news,
Whoops! Looks like I was scooped by The Lonely Conservative.

Oh, and the AttackWatch dead pool? It’s a late Friday afternoon data dump on the way to the bar.

Update II: Surber-lanche!

    My vote goes to #2, S^*t My Union Owner Says. Something tells me, though, it won’t be nearly as amusing as @S^*tMyDadSays…

    I’ll bet Shatner could play that role, though, if he reaches back and brings some of the Evil Kirk mojo he played in “The Enemy Within.”
