That would be Representative Louis Gohmert from Texas. Not being a Texan I couldn't tell you which district for sure, but his district is in the part of the state known as the "hill country", down near Austin.

From what I know of the guy I have a high opinion of him, even if he does cheer for a different school than I do.

I read his comments when they came out, and I think he was saying, actually pretty explicitly, that if 0 were to issue an executive order reclassifying any firearm(s) to class III, or maybe doing the same with any magazines because of their capacity, that he would consider that "outside the authority of the executive branch" and that it would be an impeachable offense.

Again, I'm not a Texan and I don't pay a whole lot of attention to the Texas congressional delegation - but in my opinion Gohmert isn't given to bluster. It just turns out that as some around here were saying yesterday, this situation has proven that the gunowners of this country are not one and the same with Republicans, and we aren't pussified like the Republicans are. We stood up and 0 blinked. Not my words, just read some of the threads after yesterday's press conference.

Gohmert's one of the good guys in John Boehner's House.

Someone, in the interest of clarity, advised me yesterday to keep my powder dry, and I think it's good advice all around.

0 ain't through trying and we all know that, how about let's don't alienate our friends around here?

Nothing personal on anyone, just sayin'...

So much for Okie smarts.
Louie represents East Texas, not the “hill country”. You are dead-on otherwise. Louie quit school on account of recess, he just don’t play.

Don’t remember hearing anything saying he was going to file for impeachment, although he damn well might.

The 2nd Amendment overpowered the WhiteyHut yesterday. Just the thought of 100 million armed patriots was enough to get the indo-kenyan queer and his joker plugs to blinking like they were in a sand storm.

Gohmert actually represents the district in NE Texas in the Longview/Tyler area. John Carter is the conservative that represents the Williamson County area of the hill country you are probably thinking of.
