Steve Stockman: The 5 Best Responses to His Tweet About Poking Holes in Earth to Get Oil & Gas
Congressman Steve Stockman has been a crackpot for so long it's sometimes easy to forget his nuttiness.
Luckily, every so often he tries to out-nutjob Louie Gohmert, and we remember once again why he's such a horrifying enjoyable freak show.
Like the tweet above, from what is labeled his "Official Congressional Twitter Feed."
"The best thing about the Earth is if you poke holes in it oil and gas come out," he tweeted.
Most of us here in Texas know the best way to deal with Stockman is to ignore him and wait for Republicans to realize just who they've sent to Washington and quickly send a replacement. And this tweet seemed nothing more than third-rate trolling.
But the twitterverse was just getting introduced to Stockman, and was taken aback. It responded with tweets, like these five, which range from answering the Congressman's implied question about what's the best thing about the earth to just reaching back and throwing Molotov cocktails of invective:
