Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) will be making yet another out-of-state political trip -- this time to Iowa, the key first caucus state.
Bachmann has been invited Rep. Steve King (R-IA), a close ally, to be the keynote speaker at his annual Defenders of Freedom event on April 10, 2010.
"I am honored to have Michele come to western Iowa to share her brand of conservative leadership with us," King said in his press release. "Together Michele and I have led the charge in the U.S. House to fight the Obama/Pelosi/Reid health care nightmare. It was her idea that sparked our 'Declaration of Health Care Independence' and am proud to call her a friend, ally in the conservative cause, and fellow warrior in the culture war."

Two of the founding members of the 'crazy eyes' club. What is about these two that makes me think of the Hale-Bopp cult?

Big difference: The Hale-Bopp cultists where a threat only to themselves.

Wait until they're standing close together and then throw a net over them. Freakin' loonies.

Lure Sarah Palin there and we get the trifecta. Take the crowd with them and we'd raise the National IQ by several points.

Wait a minute here, "fellow warrior"? I thought gay people couldn't be warriors?

The "culture" war--Otherwise known as the "increasingly marginalized whiny conservatives versus everyone else" war.

Don't kid yourself: They're plenty of people in this country who would follow them to the barricades -- and not just figuratively.
They may be a minority, but they're not an insignificant minority. They are very dangerous.

Both these idiots should divorce their current spouses and then get married to each other. At least two other Americans would be happier.

The only culture these two have ever been exposed to is a yeast infection.

Hope my tax dollars aren't paying for these batsh*t crazies to get together. People thought starting the Hadron Collider was gonna cause problems. What do you think the vacuum of these two occupying the same stage could unleash?

Can't tell yet if Bachmann (who couldn't get elected to shit in MN outside of her gerrymandered district of gun and bible nuts) has a plan with all this pandering to other loons (Palin, Teabaggers, King) or just does anything with enough mikes in her faces.
Hope a bunch of gay rights advocates show up so she has to jump into the bushes to hide again.

Aren't we fighting in Afghanistan against their other "fellow warriors in The Culture War?"
