Michele Bachmann Compares Obama to Pilot
I don't think there's been a recent tragedy that the GOP establishment didn't hop on and compare to Obama. It's gross.

It seems that, through the GOP lens, everything that goes wrong in the world is Obama's fault.
I have always maintained that just because the Soviet Union labeled political dissidents as mentally ill and locked them up in asylums does not mean that certain expressions of "political" opinion are not symptoms of mental illness.
She really is just a horrible person. I used to think she was well-intended, but a bit nutty. But comments like this make me wonder if she's got a mental disorder or if she's really just a bad person.

Because she, Sarah Palin, and their ilk all preach to their choir who buy it lock, stock and barrel. It's the sheep in this country who celebrate their every word is what scares me.

If she really thinks it is an appropriate analogy then she is ill.
If she is just saying it to be provocative then she is evil.
To the pilot (guy who took a pee and got locked out of the cockpit) or the co-pilot (guy who seems to have murdered 149 people)?
Thousands of Minnesotans in her district voted her into office and would probably do so again if she ran. One nut job isn't as scary as thousands who vote for one.

Well, she did actually serve out multiple terms of office. I thought that put her in the lead for a while.

It's over the top crazy, with some likely underbelly of racism. The hatred for Obama is irrational

Its scary how easily dumb people get elected.
I would totally respect the GOP if they had ideas - good ideas - that countered what President Obama has done or is doing. They have nothing, and when they have nothing, they act like cornered rats, lashing out, biting, gnawing to save their party. Scare tactics. The lies of religious freedoms being taken away. The lies of guns being taken away. The lies that war is what will solve a million years of religious unrest. It's just so completely absurd. When I turn on the tv or listen to the radio I just shake my head and ask myself, "Are we THAT gullible?" And when the people willfully vote for Bachmann or tune into Need A Sandwich and Some Cookies Coulter or We're Not Supposed to Say He Was a Drug Addict Limbaugh, I say yes, yes, we are that gullible.
Bachmann has NOTHING to offer and like so many others, she misses the limelight and needs to be heard. Now we conjured her up, broom, cauldron and all.

It's flat out racism.
But no one will tell the truth that it is flat out racism. I mean, really, with all the other things they've said and done, I would think that being called a 'racist' wouldn't phase them in the least.
I feel sooooooo sorry for "normal" Republicans who find themselves on this Hot Mess Express. Their voices are being drowned out by the fringe and if they do get a loud shout out, the fringe comes after them with a vengeance until they sulk away quietly.
