SHE MAKES PALIN SEEM SANE


I like a good revolution now and again, but the one currently being loudly and hysterically espoused by Michelle Bachmann – a Republican Congresswoman from east-central Minnesota – needs to be avoided at all costs. I’m confident that this extreme-right loony will ultimately be laughed into derisive oblivion (and I’m doing my bit here to speed that plough) but let’s make no mistake that what she proposes is nothing short of a full-blown fascist theocracy, or that she’s playing to the conspiracy nuts who have deftly switched the authorship of mass arrests and FEMA deathcamps from Dick Cheney to Barack Obama. Here are some recent sayings of crazy Bachmann…

“I want people in Minnesota armed and dangerous on this issue of the energy tax because we need to fight back. Thomas Jefferson told us ‘having a revolution every now and then is a good thing,’ and the people – we the people – are going to have to fight back hard if we’re not going to lose our country. And I think this has the potential of changing the dynamic of freedom forever in the United States.”
"I’m a foreign correspondent on enemy lines and I try to let everyone back here in Minnesota know exactly the nefarious activities that are taking place in Washington."
“Science is on our side on this one, and the science indicates that human activity is not the cause of all this global warming. And that in fact, nature is the cause, with solar flares, etc.”
“The U.S. will soon be moving to give up the dollar as our currency and we would just go with a One World currency. Such action would mean the U.S. as a country would be no more.”

The secret word is Wingnut

Wingnut? Even that is a bit generous... Bachman is, in fact, full-blown bat-shit insane: http://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1GGLS_en-USUS296US306&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=crazy+michelle+bachman
