Bachmann: Natural disasters = Apocalypse

 You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. 
Yes, I saw that she was claiming this now. Unfortunately, the joke is that anyone takes this woman seriously.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
The joke is on us, she is a sitting US congresswomen. The solution is to find out HOW THE FUCK that happened, and then once you find that problem, you educate.
We have a stigmata in the states that intelligence = weak stupid nerd. It is engrained into us as a young age to hate school, and hate intellectuals. Because they are pompous know-it-alls. Yet in the real world, or reality, or the current world we live in(only world we will ever live in), this could not be further from the truth. What has advanced us most as a species? Wheel? Fire? Industry? Physics? Science? All intellectual qualities. How far or how advanced to we get as a species if we idolize the ability to kick someones ass...

At least one step further than the next tyrants ass Pooper. Somebody has to pull the trigger on all the weapons that the smart guys dream up. Unless we're all going to give up on that at once. Unlikely.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Warning: Do not read this if you are sensitive to stupidity! [/quote] I know, right?! [quote='FaithNoMore' pid='169804' dateline='1314616031'] http://www.votebachmann.org/2011/08/sign...pocalypse/ [quote] When asked whether she was attributing the recent spate of natural disasters to the Apocalypse she responded “Absolutely. Just look at Japan. They did all kinds of freaky things with dolls and magazines, and look at what the Lord did to them. Well, that’s nothing compared to what he has in store for American non-believers. I mean, we elected Barack Hussein Obama. After a string of his manufactured crises — the debt ceiling, Obamacare, socialism, job-killing regulations, and illegal immigrants — I expect most Americans will simply welcome death.” [/quote] I may laugh myself to death after reading this... So first, this um, individual, actually beleives that God cares enough about her policies to send a hurricane and destroy the east coast, just to get the government's attention. Bullshit! Well, God supposedly did stuff like that in the Bible.... NOT!!!! Oh, and wait, all those crises we have been through the past few years, she actually thinks they were manufactured by Obama?? Holy Shit. Now maybe she just thinks the voting public is that fucking stupid. Fuck. Some of us probably are. This is mindblowing to read, but I need to rant lately, so thanks.

The anti-intellectual craze in America started with Dan Quayle who first made it hip to be dumb. We thought he would have been a disaster as a president but Bush, then Palin, then Bachmann and Perry, they've been getting progressively dumber and crazier. Just when we think we've hit bottom, they find a way to push the envelope further. At the rate they're going, we can expect them to nominate Mabus for president in 2016.

Pulled from article in OP:
Quote:“These things don’t just happen,” observed one disheveled resident, who fled her shaking home in a mustard-stained denim snuggie. “...People think too much of sodomy and not enough of Sodom!”  She's right you know ... when I'm getting a knobber, I'm sure as fuck not thinking about some fictional city in some ancient book that got destroyed by winged creatures commanded by a self-absorbed deity with a chip on his shoulder! Damn straight you dirty bitch. lol.I also love how the author couldn't resist adding the colorful word picture: "mustard-stained denim snuggie" --- So Awesome! Soo god damn awesome!! *still highly amused* ![[Image: Evolution.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i1118.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fk619%2Fjcincain%2FPublic%2FEvolution.png) |
