The Bachmann Watch (http://www.dccc.org/page/content/bachmannwatch) is officially my favorite new web site. The site focuses on the statements Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), who is clearly one of the dumbest and most irresponsible politicians in the history of the United States. (Plus I love the fact that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee decided to play a little dirty pool and actually develop the site.)
If you are unfamiliar with Bachmann, this brainiac has described global warming as "voodoo, nonsense, hokum, a hoax"; warned the American public that the gay community is "specifically targeting our children" and voiced her concerns that President Obama and other U.S. politicians "may have anti-American views". With that being said, her comments from Tuesday regarding the swine flu epidemic truly emphasize how stupid Bachmann truly is: "I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970s that the swine flu broke out then under another Democrat president Jimmy Carter. And I'm not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it's an interesting coincidence." Actually, you lunatic, the last time that there was an outbreak of swine flu was in 1976, when Republican Gerald Ford was President. After a soldier at Fort Dix in New Jersey died of the illness in February of that year, alarmed public health officials urged President Ford that every American should be vaccinated. However, the National Influenza Immunization Program, which did not begin until October, was marked by controversy, delays, administrative issues, legal complications, unforeseen side effects and a progressive loss of credibility for public health authorities. By the time the program was halted in December, less than thirty-three percent of the population had been immunized. And by the way, if you aren't blaming President Obama for the swine flu epidemic, then why are you even mentioning his name?
