Oh Michelle Bachmann… you are proof that being wacky is no impediment to political office. She is boycotting the census, which happens every ten years mind you, because “There’s great concern that’s being raised because now ACORN has been named as one of the federal partners… This is very concerning because the mother load of all data comes from the census.”
See, because ACORN is a big scary group. They are stealing our info and selling it to terrorists. Or something. I do not exactly know what the threat is, other than Conservatives freak out about ACORN a lot, without specifics beyond possible voter fraud. This is so beyond silly and foolish it just hammers home the question of “what were people thinking when they voted for her”…and if she is truly representative of the opinions and ideas in her district, Minnesota has a little slice of Stupidityville right there. Personally, I am surprised she is not more worried about the involvement of Telmundo…they speak Spanish on that network.
She considers it a badge of honor that people point out her foolishness, because “It’s clear when a person speaks out against those policies they become a target, and that should be concerning to everyone.” But the truth is, Rep. Bachmann… you are confusing things. No one is criticizing you for “speaking out against policies.” Instead, they are calling you out on your repeated asinine statements. And you have just gotten more absurd in your commentary since Obama took office. Your commentary is almost exclusively paranoid and delusional at anytime. There is nothing more ominous about this census than the last 22 U.S. Censuses.
