One wonders what Michelle Bachmann will say next proving beyond all doubt she's probably the most ignorant and stupid member to ever inhabit the halls of Congress.
[What does that say about those Minnesotans who pushed the ballot lever in her favor?]
Think Progress and other sources of truth have recorded and provided Bachmann's latest foray into insanity for all of the world to see and hear.
Last Saturday, in an interview with WWTC 1280 AM, Rep. Blockhead went on a rant:
[She's really pissed at President Obama's cap and trade plan--it would have, she said, "the impact of forever changing our country." I suppose that in her mind it would result in fewer rich people. She is also really, really pissed that some folks think global warming is real!]
Speaking to the issue of global warming, she said: "And actually, we want this debate because the 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 "science" she refers to is the Book of Genesis!]
But, as TP points out, Bachmann isn't satisfied to merely oppose any relevant legislation. She went on:
"And really now in Washington, I'm a foreign correspondent in enemy lines. And I try to keep everyone back here in Minnesota know exactly the nefarious activities that are taking place in Washington. [...]
"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."
So, a batshit crazy Representative to the U.S. House of Representatives from Minnesota, not only denies the real causes of global warming, she also accuses the President of trying to change the country forever [whatever that means], and is calling for the people of Minnesota to arm themselves because we may have to instigate an armed revolution against the administration in order to "save" our country.
I guess Chuck Norris and Glenn Beck agree with her as they're busy putting together "cells" of revolution in Texas and elsewhere.
If you had told me that our airwaves and our Congress would be infested with these nutcases 20-30 years BR [Before Reagan), I would have told you you were out of your mind.
It's all so sad, though, when we really need to come together as a country and work together to accomplish badly-needed reforms and try to fix the wrongs that have resulted from the Bush/Cheney wrecking crew.
Here's Bachmann running off at the mouth about the poor rich people.
