When last we touched on the hilarious and terrifying political career of Michele Bachmann she was lurking in the bushes, with bodyguards nearby, afraid of the gays. Now, as she runs for Congress (heaven help us), she is taking on more issues about which she clearly lacks even the slightest clue. Her recent comments on the French riots are quite amusing. Sad and terribly depressing of course - but funny.
Though one thing in her comments struck me as weird beyond her obvious cluelessness. What's an anti-choice, anti-gay, anti-immigrant, you-re'gonna-pray-to-Jesus-and-you're-gonna-like-it Republican like Bachmann doing saying nice things about the (non-Islamic) French?
