:wtf:

BACHMANN: Well, Glenn, I have experienced that throughout my political career, being labeled a kook. It just happened again in a big story in the Minneapolis Star Tribune. But all we have to do is point to the treasury secretary on tape, on camera. This is not Michele Bachmann being a kook. This is our treasury secretary on tape and on camera.

10. I caught a bit of her Beck interview. It was hilarious. He must have called her "Congressman" about
times.

When he finally caught himself and apologized, she said, "That's OK, I'm secure enough in my femininity to be called a man."

He then went on to call her "Congressman" several more times.

:rofl: :freak: :dunce:

13. Oh, surely she started experiencing it before that.
I mean, she can't have changed that much upon election.

16. I hope Bachmann's constituents do some long, hard thinking at their
voting precincts next cycle.

The impression she leaves of being psychiatrically unhinged is self-generated. She cooks her own kook.
