There are so many lunatics on the radical right and at times it is hard to choose just who is the wackiest of the bunch. Well for right now at least, I award the top wacko award to Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota, yes, that Michelle Bachmann. With so many Republicans that stuck around the Capitol to whine about the Democrats not giving away sweetheart deals to oil companies, it seems she wanted to stick out. Like a good Republican, she attacked Majority Leader Pelosi, but to her credit at least she didn't talk about hanging her. Instead, she stuck with global warming and mixed in a little bit of Jesus.
From TPM:
We like to keep track of the, er, intriguing sayings of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, the Christian Right champion from Minnesota. But this latest is really out there -- Bachmann says we don't need pesky environmentalists like Nancy Pelosi around, because Jesus already saved the planet!"[Pelosi] is committed to her global warming fanaticism to the point where she has said that she's just trying to save the planet," Bachmann told the right-wing news site OneNewsNow. "We all know that someone did that over 2,000 years ago, they saved the planet -- we didn't need Nancy Pelosi to do that."
Umm, umm, uhhhhh. What the hell do you say to that? It's kinda like hearing Britney Spears say we should just follow the President without question. That my friends, is a giant brick wall and nothing is getting through that amount of thick headedness. Back in reality, global warming is doing untold damage and Republicans like Bachmann could care less.
