It's All Michelle's And Hillary's Fault

A couple weeks ago, almost 300 Nigerian girls were kidnapped from their school by some nut-job terrorist group called Boko Haram.  The girls are still being held as hostages, as Boko Haram demands the release of some of its members from Nigerian prisons  Some speculate the girls may have already been sold into sexual servitude.

First Lady Michelle Obama spoke of this tragic situation and tweeted a message of support:  "#BringBackOurGirls".  It was retweeted about a bajillion times.

It was also immediately and cruelly mocked by Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter, the Mutt and Jeff of the American media's hate-speech class.  Their mean, shallow and useless point was that tweets don't solve the problem, and therefore Obama and his wife were "weak".  Oh, ha-ha-ha!  Let's make fun of moral support!  What a waste of time!  What a pair of assholes.

The plunger cannot clear the clog

Not to be outdone by professional gasbags, amateur gasbag U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tex) actually asserted that the Boko Haram kidnappings were Hillary Clinton's fault.  His reasoning (if it may be so generously described)?  As Secretary of State, Clinton declined a chance to officially designate Boko Haram a "terrorist group."

Hillary was fully aware of Boko Haram and said she didn't want to give them the satisfaction and publicity of the terrorist label.  After her departure, the group was eventually classified as terrorist, but well before the Nigerian kidnapping.  So, our official designation obviously made no difference one way or another.

And your point then, Louie, would be exactly what?  Exactly stupid, that's what.
