UPDATE FROM (O)CT(O)PUS BELOW.
Bachmann actually got up in front of people and said the Founding Fathers worked tirelessly to end slavery?
This is grindingly cringe-worthy idiocy. But not for the Tea Party--which apparently rewards stupidity and actually encourages it.
If my child came home from school and said his American history teacher claimed what Bachmann claimed, I would demand that teacher be fired as a monumental incompetent. Yet this stupid woman is appearing in Iowa with the hope of being nominated as her party's candidate for president?
What has happened to this country that people as illiterate and dumb as Michele Bachmann can attain not just the position of US Representative but, incredibly, entertain the hope of being president without having the slightest understanding of the history of this country?
But more important, what about the people of the 6th Congressional district of Minnesota? They are the ones who contine to keep this dunderhead in office. Can an entire congressional district be that soft-witted? Apparently, yes. I guess even gormless people need representation too, and Bachmann is their choice.
The Tea Party, which supports this irredeemable dunce, should be ashamed of going within 10 feet of this jerk, let alone supporting and encouraging her to seek high office.
The Tea Party cannot be considered a serious movement so long as they continue to support people like Carl Paladino, Sarah Palin, and Michele Bachmann--people who are ignorant and proud of their ignorance and who have no intention of correcting their imbecility.
Here's the video of this unfortunate woman making an ass of herself for all the world to witness. These are the kinds of pols the Tea Party admires: Jabbering idiots.
