Michelle Bachman thinks they're winning the shutdown argument

[gopiscrap]

what a fucking vacuous idiot!

[FSogol]

1. Every day of the shutdown is one more day she is avoiding prison for her campaign finance crimes.

It is a win for her personally.

[gopiscrap]

4. yup I agree

[Jackpine Radical]

2. Bachmann also thinks

Jesus rode a dinosaur.

[gopiscrap]

5. She also thinks that God blew into a ball of clay and poof!

there was man and then he ripped a rib out of the poor guy and made woman.

[Hutzpa]

6. lol

[City Lights]

3. So does Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell.

A gaggle of fools.

[Erose999]

20. A gaggle is a group of geese. I think the house would be a "swarm of eels" or a "passel of pigs"

also: a knot of toads, a sneak of weasels, or a plague of locusts. Or a congress of baboons, LOL.

More fun with collective nouns:

22. LOL!

I'm partial to a sneak of weasels or a plague of locusts! Thanks! I went with gaggle of fools because I gag whenever they speak.

[Arkana]

7. Good, that means they're losing.

Michele Bachmann's a good negative bellwether--if she thinks something's true it's probably not.

[gopiscrap]

8. No kidding

[11 Bravo]

9. Any sentence beginning with the words "Michelle Bachmann thinks" is demonstrably false.

[gopiscrap]

11. You're right, I'm sorry

English isn't my native language!

[SamKnause]

10. Shutdown

Michele Bachmann is incapable of thinking.

Anyone who voted for her is incapable of thinking.

[gopiscrap]

13. yet she kept on winning

I'd surely hate to live in that district!

[SamKnause]

15. Reply

And therein lies the problem.

The clueless and uninformed electing clueless and uninformed politicians.

The U.S. media should be taken to the woodshed.

Our country would not be in the shape it is in, if we had an honest media.

[gopiscrap]

17. I agree, but it is a corporate media and

in addition our teaching of civics has gone by the wayside. It's all math and science now in the schools. That's well and good, but it doesn't teach civic responsibility or civic thinking skills. I had to make my US citizenship, so I took politics seriously from the time I was about 11 years old because I knew with in a few years that I would need to it in order to stay in the US as an adult.

[joeybee12]

12. She also thinks left is right and up is down...nt

[Populist_Prole]

14. I'll bet she also though Jesus Christ rode dinosaurs too

And I'll take that bet!

[Brother Buzz]

16. The perfect reverse barometer

[0rganism]

18. i got as far as "Michelle Bachman thinks" and blacked out

Seriously. Full stop right there.

[lumberjack_jeff]

19. She is. This is what she wants; nonexistent federal government.

We give these people benefit of the doubt that they do not deserve. This isn't a tactic, it is a goal.

[Aerows]

29. Precisely

They want the government shut down permanently so they can go back to their little realms and be rulers without any restraints. You don't think Bachmann would bring back slavery in her own district if she could, just because she thinks it is "better" for people? I know she would.

She'd probably enact enough heinous legislation to destroy women's lives, too, but since she would be the governing body, she would be immune. Never underestimate the contempt folks like her have for the ordinary person.

[malaise]

21. Thst she who cannot run for office again because of ethics violations

)related to campaign finances) is comfortable parading all over every network with her BS suggests she is either batshit crazy or shameless. I suspect she is both.

That the media gives her a pass is even more frightening,

[gopiscrap]

23. God I hope she gets to spend some time wearing an orange jumpsuit!

[frylock]

24. tiger blood..

winning.

[Xolodno]

25. Where's Baghdad Bob when you need him?

[Aerows]

27. Baghdad Bob

has more sense than she does. Don't insult a dead man like that!

[Aerows]

26. Michelle Bachmann

has quite probably lost half to 3/4 of her brain matter since she got elected. It's rather astonishing she can still breathe, let alone walk and speak.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

28. She'll be gone to Allen Westville and Joe Walshland soon.

But not soon enough.

[FiveGoodMen]

31. But will she pull a 'Palin' and keep showing up on the airwaves?

[FiveGoodMen]

30. If there's anything dumber than Bachmann

it's the voters of the MN Sixth.

(Any large population will have some nuts, but a large group following and admiring the nuts? That's trouble!)

[KatyaR]

32. She also thought she was qualified to be President.

"Fucking vacuous idiot" is an understatement.
