Comparing a good Democrat to Bachmann. I didn't think that you had the iron to do such a thing! I am impressed!

I would argue that neither are good for their respective chosen parties. What's most troubling to me is the fact that such lunatics can actually have followings in this country (though Bachmann's appears larger). It's a sad commentary on how ignorant and willing to be misled many of our countrymen are.

The difference is that the "gentleman" is a lunatic. I believe that he is troubled in many ways. That he is simply unstable perhaps. Mrs. Bachmann is not. She is merely the latest "whipping post" of the general media as she is a political conservative woman. That is something which is not supposed to exist, just like a Black Republican (Dr. Alan Keyes), a political conservative gay man (George Takai), a transgendered politically conservative (Julia Romans), or Hispanic Republican (Gloria Estefan)... This is the modus the media had with Palin. It had nothing to do with ability, but everything with ideology. Leftist crazies, like Jessie Jackson Jr., for example, who say all kinds of outlandish things, are hardly ever covered. This is an unbecoming duplicity.

Perhaps a Kucinich/LaRouche ticket? 'This Year, Why Not The Wackiest?'

She meets my definition of a lunatic. Easily. I have no issue with conservative women (I'm married to one, BTW). But I do with delusional people and she qualifies in my book.

Now, there was great talk about credible sources in another thread.... Is this really a credible source? Many supposed quotes of Sarah Palin have been found to be fabrications. You better watch it, or your wife will take a wooden spoon to you!

I think I've seen video clips of all of these. She is certifiably nuts.

I think her statement that all Democrats in Congress should be investigated to make sure they are loyal to America is one of the most bat shit craziest things she has ever said.

I am praying she surges in the polls and is the Republican nominee. I would love to see her debate Obama. They are both lawyers and it should be an even match up. I am a little worried that Obama will be distracted by Michelle bobbing back and forth on her clown shoes while she deep throats an Iowa State Fair foot long corn dog.

Damn. With mad skillz like that, I might just have to change my opinion of her.

I am normally not one to complain about crude language, but the highlighted portion above, is beyond par. In fact, it is plainly offensive. I was not aware that this is a forum for explicit sex acts irregardless of how many (fake) pictures you post.

-------------------------------------------

As to the other: demand to investigate all Democrats in Congress... I hear no condemnation of Democrats who made similar statements in comparison to Republicans. You are very silent about Jessie Jackson, Jr. in particular (who has called for the imprisonment of all Republicans and stated that they (Republicans) should all be sent to Auschwitz an other occasion). How about Barney Franks? Perhaps Charlie Rangel rings a bell. They have all made similar, outrageous statements in the past.

Perhaps the DNC should nominate Jessie Jackson Jr. for the next President, as Barrack Obama is... shall we say: nowhere near as colorful.
