I hate to be a killjoy, but the news that Michelle Bachmann is running for President is not good news for Democrats, or the country.
Here is how Kos covers it…
An unqualified victory for hilarity:
Washington (CNN) – CNN has exclusively learned that Rep. Michele Bachmann will form a presidential exploratory committee. The Minnesota Republican plans to file papers for the committee in early June, with an announcement likely around that same time.
Bachmann is roughly as quotable as Michael Steele, and as electable as Sarah Palin, so this ought to be entertaining.
And yes, she’s serious about this…
Ha, ha, bloody, ha…. right?
Let’s count the ways that this is bad for America.
- America is now the kind of country where someone like Michelle Bachmann can be elected to Congress and can seriously consider running for President.
- Bachmann is so fucking crazy that all the other crazy ass Republicans will seem sane in comparison.
- Our moronic media will need to treat her idiotic utterances with reverence or risk exposing their liberal bias.
- Dumbass, DC based Democratic strategists (a.k.a. idiot mother-fuckering jerks who can’t get enough of losing) will take any small success she has as a sign that they have to “move to the right.”
- etc, etc….
Honest to god, this is the kind of news that makes me want to move to Canada.
