Crazy Eyes, making shit up (Raw Story) |
Michele Bachmann is a sitting Congresswoman, who inexplicably keeps getting reelected. She looks nuts, she sounds nuts, and she just keeps coming up with them. Like Palin--but on a much smaller scale--Bachmann can say something utterly outrageous, crazy, stupid or untrue, and it doesn't seem to hurt her. She probably just solidifies the opposition and the support of those who already were in that camp. But I don't understand this. Check out what she had to say below. It's nuts. She's bananas. Or she's outrageously dishonest. If it's the former, what is she doing in Congress? If it's the latter, exactly how much respect can she have for the intelligence of her supporters?

OK, is it just me or have we entered an alternate reality?
ReplyDeleteSince Bachmann says "The Founding Fathers freed their slaves as a justification that they 'worked tirelessly to end slavery' it might carry a little more validation if they never owned slaves or raped them and had kids with them to begin with. Don't cha think?
I mean that is like a bank robber freed his hostages so he is not guilty of robbing the bank, no?
For Christ sakes people, I am not proud of these facts either but that is no excuse to rewrite history or sweep it under the rug!
The Founding Fathers were not Christ, they were men that make huge “man made” mistakes (they were not infallible or Incapable of erring), why is it that some want to rewrite history and say that their Sh*t does not stink, please grow up.
There's been a huge amount of alternate reality going on for a long, long time. Karl Rove used to be the man who ran the generator! But it doesn't run as smoothly anymore. A lot more of us can see through it now, I think. But MAN, if you're plugged into The Matrix, you are REALLY plugged in. Can you imagine listening to Michele Bachmann or Sarah Palin, and not merely agreeing with them, but vigorously, enthusiastically cheering for them? They're going to be so embarrassed when Neo comes and unplugs them.
