There really aren’t many ways to explain this latest one. As a matter of fact, I can only think of 3 possible answers. If you have an answer that is better than the 3 I have, I’m all ears.

It seems to me that for Michele to actually get on the House floor and spew this incredible tripe, 1 of 3 conditions has to exist.

1.) She’s getting everything she says fed to her by someone else, and simply can’t remember it all.

2.) She’s even nuttier than most sentient people believe her to be. Nutty to the point of institution-grade.

3.) She’s an even bigger idiot than most sentient people believe her to be. Stupid to the point of assisted-living grade.

I realize that my so-called “representative” is “Junket John” Boehner, but he has an excuse; staying sloshed will cause you to say and do a lot of stupid things, as Boehner has demonstrated over and over again.

I don’t see any sign that Michele is sloshed, so I’m back to my 3 choices above. And by extension, I have to apply these 3 choices to every resident of the 6th District of Minnesota who voted for her, along with a “intoxication” option for them. I do know that she seems to get worse every day, which means that she is in bad need of either better handlers, or serious therapy, or both.

What a frigging joke this one is.

Rep. Michele Bachmann took to the floor of the House of Representatives twice Tuesday, likening the United States to the Titanic and lambasting “gangster government” for meddling in carmakers’ affairs — though she boasts on her Web site of doing the same auto dealership-advocacy she decries Democrats for.

Here’s Bachmann on “gangster government” and the auto industry.

One story that came out today, there is a dealership that I know of that applied to their Democrat [sic] Senator to appeal for help so that they could stay open. That Senator was able to arrange a meeting between the dealer and the officials at GM. We all know GM is now Government Motors because it’s owned by the American people. It’s been nationalized. There is no private corporations the way we used to think of GM. Now, the main stockholder is the American Government. So this Democrat Senator who was applied to for help was able to secure a meeting with General Motors and a car dealership, and they were able to get their dealership back.

Minnesota’s lone senator, Amy Klobuchar, was in the news for helping the Walser dealership in Bloomington gain one of only about a dozen reprieves for GM dealerships told earlier they must close.

Bachmann goes on in the same speech to twice cite conservative columnist and American Enterprise Institute fellow Michael Barone:  ”He said now we’ve moved into the realm of gangster government.”

But Bachmann’s own auto-industry meddling comes before Klobuchar’s in a news story posted on the Rushpublican’s own Web site:

Congresswoman Michelle Bachman [sic] was on hand to lead the rally to save the dealership. She said she will take their fight to Washington on Wednesday when Chrysler leaders will be questioned by members of the senate about the future of local car dealers.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar will also take the fight and a petition signed by attendees of the rally to Washington.

It is past stunning…… there are people who want this stupid bitch to represent them. I cannot think of a worse case in Congress right now. Bachmann is starting to make Caribou Barbie look rational and intelligent by way of comparison.

Minnesota may be the “Land of 10,000 Lakes,” but the 6th District is surely the “Trailer Park of Inbred Flakes.”
