Lamar Smith: “If the gentleman will yield briefly, I will just say that I purposely stayed on the House floor just because I respect…”

“If the gentleman will yield briefly, I will just say that I purposely stayed on the House floor just because I respect and admire the gentleman and what he has to say. And I happen to have agreed with everything he mentioned tonight about ObamaCare. And let me say also that the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Gohmert) oftentimes speaks on the House floor. And he is speaking to an audience that is listening to us on C-SPAN. And we do appreciate his speaking the truth. We appreciate his bringing out the facts, and we hope that those who are in a position to make changes or to even repeal ObamaCare will do so. And if that occurs, it will be in large part a tribute to Louie Gohmert's persistence in pointing out the flaws in ObamaCare. I thank the gentleman for yielding.”
