When he warned of terror babies on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 last week, U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Tyler, told Cooper that he and comedian Jon Stewart, host of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, could “have their fun” with him. So Stewart did.
On CNN, Gohmert demanded that Cooper take a closer look at “the gaping hole” in the country’s security, which he alleges allows foreigners to give birth in the U.S. to future terrorist citizens. Heeding Gohmert's advice, Stewart aired the “security” edition of a not-actually-regular segment called “Jon Stewart & Anderson Cooper Have Their Fun Looking At Gaping Holes.”
Here it is:

Fine timing. We just mashed-up Gohmert's gaping-hole comments, and more, for the Terror Babies Mash-Up this morning.
