Originally Posted By ecdc >>Truthiness is not the sole property of the Far Right.<< See also, 9/11 Truthers, Vaccine Denialists I'm fairly certain that Michele Bachmann "quote" is a recycled joke. I know the article suggests a couple of sources, but I could swear I heard it elsewhere.
Originally Posted By SingleParkPassholder If anybody is ripe for satire, it's Bachmann. I'm not sure defending her in any context is a plus mark for anybody's resume. She actually says enough dumb things that it's hard to discern at first glance what's real and what isn't.
