and I thought Sarah Palin was frightening

An excerpt from the article:
Bachmann later condemned those who had made Holocaust references at the rally. But even a cursory glance at her career reveals that this rising star has long trafficked in some extreme positions. In October last year Bachmann called some of her fellow congressmen anti-American. She has said Obama holds socialist views. She has attacked global warming by saying that carbon dioxide emissions are a natural part of the atmosphere. "Carbon dioxide is not a harmful gas, it is a harmless gas," she said. She has fed into fears of a violent backlash against Obama by saying that "having a revolution every now and then is a good thing". She has spoken of "gangster government" in a speech viewed more than two million times on the internet. She has dubbed Obama's plans to increase AmeriCorps – a government volunteer service group – as a plan to forcibly indoctrinate young people. "I believe there is a very strong chance that we will see young people put into mandatory service... there are provisions for what I would call re-education camps for young people," she told an interviewer. Her language in opposing healthcare reform has been bloodcurdling. At a recent event in Colorado she told her audience: "What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing. This will not pass. We will do whatever it takes to make sure this doesn't pass." She is also extremely socially conservative, strongly opposing abortion and gay marriage, and deeply religious. She has described herself as a "fool for Christ".
Great--More Wackos
Date: 2009-11-19 04:46 am (UTC)Speaking of wackos: Sarah Palin will signing her book in Noblesville, IN on Thursday, November 18. I was asked to go to the signing on behalf of one of the people I know since she knows I have no pressing commitments that would stop me from attending. It is bad enough that I bought her the book for $14.50. Thanks Amazon for raising the price from $9. In order to get a wristband to attend the signing, people are asked to start lining up for 1 of the 1,000 available at 7 AM. There are idiots already waiting outside the bookstore just to get her autograph.
I apologize for providing financial support for one wacko's self-worth delusional reality.
Another wacko that has been given credibility in Indiana is Howard Galganov. Howard is a Canadian extremist who is finding disciples in the United States.
