She is, however, a barking mad religious fanatic.

12. We should require that all Congressmen reveal their IQ in their biographies.

But, you'd have to explain to most of them what "biographies" are first.



My guess is that Bachmann has the lowest IQ.
But, she won't be able to use that as a form of defense at any of her several trials, though.

I saw him at a gun control panel and he just came off incredibly stupid sounding. Mike Lee as well.

We have heavy competition in Tex-ass. I'm in Joe Barton (R-ExxonMobil/BP)'s district next door to Goomer.

Then we have our new snarlin' senator, graduate of the Joe McCarthy/Attila the Hun Charm School, Ted Cruz.

As my mom would say,"He's so dumb he couldn't find his ass with both hands AND a Ouija Board!"

That's pronounced "wee-jee".
