Stupid Party Hero of the Week

The first Stupid Party Hero of the Week is [drum roll] Rethuglican Rep. Louie "I'm As Dumb As I Look" Gohmert (Stupid Party-TX).   Louie gets the inaugural SPHW award for his response to the White House's cancelling of tours due to the sequestration.  Specifically, Louie introduced this amendment to a continuing resolution funding government operations:

"None of the funds made available by a division of this Act may be used to transport the President to or from a golf course until public tours of the White House resume."

We're surprised Louie didn't also use this opportunity to require that the President be prohibited use of a teleprompter at gummint expense.   Yes, he's as dumb as he looks, making him the perfect representation of The Stupid Party.
