'Tard of the Week - Michele Bachmann

Friday, August 28, 2009
You know, I may have to disqualify Representative Bachmann from this feature. Like Sarah Palin, it's just ridiculously easy to bust her chops. After all, every time she opens her mouth, vivid proof of her inability to form a coherent thought just falls right out and drops in your lap. Like shooting fish in a barrel.

Her latest contribution to the idiocy that is her political career was a tele-town hall meeting, which near as I can tell is the ninth circle of conference calls. Organizers claimed there were 35,000 people on the line, and all of them witnessed this loon's crazy-ass assertions.

She claims the thoroughly debunked "death panels" are in fact "true," and praised her hero Sarah Palin for bringing that shocking revelation out into the open. She very carefully didn't deny that there's a plan afoot to force all doctors to perform abortions under the new health care initiative (what?). But the highlight of the call was when she encouraged all the listeners to get down on their knees and pray that health care reform fails.

Because, really, what's more Christian than hoping the 47 million Americans without health care continue to be under served and die early as a result? That certainly personifies the Judeo-Christian ethos in my book.

And according to her, “That’s really where this battle will be won — on our knees in prayer and fasting. Remember: faith without works is dead. So we’re asking you to do all of it: pray, fast, believe, trust the Lord, but also act.”

I'm surprised she didn't tell them to pray for Obama's death while she was at it, since it seems to be in fashion among the Christian wackadoodles these days.

Since she's proven (over and over and over) how incredibly fucking stupid she is, I'm now starting to wonder about the median IQ in her district. We'll see if they come to their senses the next time this 'tard's number is up and get someone in there who's smarter than a box of rocks.

Janiece, I'm going to disagree with you on this one. Intensely. Representative Bachmann is absolutely right, especially about the part about winning through fasting. Rep. Bachmann, if you're reading this, I want you to know: I am hoping you'll fast, and my thoughts are with you. Indeed, I want to remind you that a truly righteous person on a fast would even refuse liquids, and so should you. Fast, and we will all pray for you.

(P.S. ::pssst:: Janiece, scurvy is awesome. Don't ruin this opportunity for us.)

Sorry, Congresswoman Bachmann, I wasn't saying anything. When did you say you'd be starting this righteous fast for the unborn old people or whatever? I think now is as good a time as any, don't you. And whatever you do, no orange juice. It's made by Kenyan communists and contains fluoride. Really.

Um, yes. Quite right, Eric.

I fully understand the error of my ways now, and realize I've been making baby Jesus cry with my name-calling.

Fast, Representative Bachmann - fast! Save me from myself and the Kenyan orange juice.

Well, at least they're praying and not passing the ammunition.
