Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) to God

[Eric J in MN]

"We deserve your wrath, but would you yet get our nation mercy."

1. I have to believe she'll win this year's TPM Golden Duke Award

for "Meritorious Achievement in The Crazy".

I mean, who is crazier?!

In case you don't know, Talking Points Memo (TPM) blog sponsors the Golden Duke Award (for dear disgraced former Rep. Duke Cunningham, R-CA, currently: minimum security-AZ) to "honor excellence in public corruption, betrayals of the public trust and generally shameless behavior".

Seriously...who is crazier?! (I know there are candidates, like Crazy Virginia Foxx...but really...Bachmann should win this one. The "slitting wrists" babbling alone seems likely to push her to the finalists.)

(Eric, I couldn't watch the whole thing...when I got to her intoning something like "Oh, Lord, speaking as leaders who look to you..." I had to stop.)

Here's the video intro...
<<Rep. Michele Bachman (R-MN) also led a prayer, thanking the Lord for the Godly men and women who are in public life, and asking forgiveness for government leaders that haven't looked to God>>

2. Note that she made that "prayer" because of the failure to block

health care reform (though given the bill we're getting, I'd say they were successful).

Jesus wept.

3. Black magic differs from white in that it "asks" for things. Bachmann worships the devil.
