OMG—I Love Michele Bachmann

She is totally my new favorite rightwing extremist.

Not only will she make a ridiculous spectacle of herself pawing the president like Lennie Small going after a newborn pup, but as Shaker Pilotweed reminded me in comments, she's also the dingaling who, in 2005, pushed for an amendment to the state constitution to ban same-sex marriage while she was a Minnesota State Senator—and was photographed crouching in the bushes outside the Capitol, watching opponents rally, after the measure failed.


I had totally forgotten about that. Of course I had to immediately head to YouTube to find some more highlights in Bachmann history—and I was eminently pleased to discover that she's not just a superb Congresswoman; she's also an expert on all kinds of things! Here she is giving her diagnosis of Terri Schiavo:



And here she is talking about global warming:



And evolution (I had no idea there were "hundreds and hundreds"
of Nobel Prize winning scientists who believe in Intelligent Design!):



And on gay marriage—talking points galore!



Wow. She is one smart lady.

Go on with your bad self, Grabby Grabberson!
