Bachmann Birther Overdrive

Her mendacity would be hilarious if it weren't so insidious:
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said Thursday it's not for her to say whether President Obama is a citizen of the United States — or a Christian.

"That isn't for me to state; that's for the president to state," Bachmann, the leading Tea Party lawmaker in the House, said on "Good Morning America" on ABC. "When the president makes his statements, I think they should stand for their own."
Yes, when will the president FINALLY reassure US voters that he's a citizen and a Christian?! It's long overdue, Obama!
"We should take the president at his word," Bachmann said.
But foremostly fail to acknowledge his words, so that we can continue to pretend he hasn't ever commented on his citizenship status or religion.

Yikes.

At this point, I have officially moved from "not giving a crap" to "actively hoping it turns out he was born on Planet Psych! just to blow these assholes' minds."
