OW!! Michelle Bachman is Hurting My Brain!

What a week. She just keeps beating away at reason!

First, I found this...





and then this...



And to top it off, this...



OW!OW!OW!

How can anyone so completely ignorant be allowed to speak over and over again?

One at a time. Here we go...

Carbon Dioxide is natural. Humans (and all animals) exhale it as a waste product. We do so because it is harmful to us. If we lock Michelle Bachman in a sealed room , she would soon use up all the oxygen, replacing it with exhaled CO2, and she would then prove just how harmful a gas it is. Carbon Dioxide is poisonous to animal life. In addition, too much CO2 in the atmosphere's mix increases the temperature of the whole planet; it "warms the globe" as it were. But she doesn't believe in that, of course.

The 1970's occurrence of swine flu was during Gerald Ford's Presidency. Not the the virus cares a whit, but Ford was a Republican President.

Finally, the Smoot-Hawley Bill was signed into law by President Herbert Hoover (another Republican), in 1930 , just months after the stock market crash, and nearly 3 years (31 months to be exact) before he gave Roosevelt the keys to the country. Oh, and along with the keys he gave Roosevelt a couple little issues to deal with, like a 25% unemployment rate and a GDP that was nearly half what it had been when Hoover took office. In short, Hoover gave Roosevelt a 38-month old Depression to deal with.

How about "History First!" or "Facts First!" instead of "Party First!"

FDR probably seems like the absolute farthest left President Michelle Bachman can imagine.
Fine.
The fact is he took office at the lowest point in the Great Depression and promptly turned it around. The only people who would argue that are people that can't hear facts that don't support their preconceived notions...

Or pinheads that can't read a friggin' graph.
