Bachmann: 'I Don't Understand Why The Democratic Party Would Be Opposed To Me'

And this has been another episode of "Things Michelle Bachmann Doesn't Understand."

So what happened to her since the '70s, did she suffer a head injury?

Michelle is a little goofy.
What she stands for today has little or nothing to do with what Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale stood for in 1976 or stand for today. Her claim that she stands for what they stood for when they were elected to office is proof positive that she has no contact with reality.
One of the things I am most great full for in my life is that I live about a half a mile outside her district. On of the things that is most frightening in my life is that there will be redistricting in a couple of years.

Um, maybe because you're crazy.

I stand for the same values that my parents stood for when we were Democrats.

Well, Michele,

In your parents day, it used to be that many in the Democratic Party were opposed to rights for women. Or for blacks. Gays? Don't even think of it, we put them in prison or at least fired them from their job. After we beat them up.

But we've moved on to a better place now, a place that accepts women in positions of power. Like you. Even if you are batshit crazy.

Is it possible that she's alienating some of her constituents with the crazy talk?

Does anyone believe anything she says

Her comments disprove the old saying, "With age comes experience". In her case it needs to be, "With age comes insanity".

She had to be kidding, right? No one can be that clueless. Oh...waith. nm

I'm not a partisan, but I have some speculative reasons why the Democratic party might not like you. I've avoided snide comments about your alleged lack of intelligence. While I personally doubt your intellectual capabilities, such statements are not verifiable.

A. You're a Republican. (And not a Democrat.)
B. You believe that many members of Congress are "un-American". (Bush-era rhetoric implies you're referring to the Dems specifically.)
C. You support teaching of intelligent design in public schools and believe evolution is a theory that has not been proven. (While it is true that no scientific theory can ever truly be proven, rational people favor teaching those theories that bear the weight of objective scrutiny. Gravity does. Evolution does. Intelligent design does not.)
D. You oppose increases in the minimum wage. (Which is an idea the Dems tend to like.)
E. You support a Constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage and other recognition of gay relationships. (Which is an idea the Dems tend to oppose.)
F. You believe that LGBT people suffer from mental illness. (Which, in addition to being wrong, is also not an idea the Dems favor.)

So, if you were to pull a 180 and change those things about you, maybe they'd like you more. But you won't, because you're an idiot who has no respect for reality.

This has got to be a "Onion" piece! Surely she jests.

Your parents must be proud!

Fuck you, Michelle.

Michelle who?

This creature combines the narcissism of Orly Taitz with the smarts of Tom Tancredo, and the good judgment of Mark Sanford and Helen Chenowyth.

What's not to like?

Who expects dignity or intelligence from a Representative, anyway? Anyone who believes the earth was created in 4004 BC has special knowledge denied to the rest of us, and we should respect that.

She's stupid! And that's one of the better things you can say about her.

God, you just can't make up dumb! Sometimes all you can do is shake your head and walk away.

"The first time I ever came to Washington was to dance at Walter Mondale's inaugural ball."

? Am I remembering wrong? Mondale was not elected, so was not inaugurated, so did she dance by herself in an empty room? Is she hallucinating?

Did she wake up alone in an empty ballroom? Was this so traumatic that she went around the bend?

Perhaps this explains Bachmann.
