The move by incoming Speaker John Boehner to put Bachmann on the panel surprised Republican insiders, who see her as a fiery grass roots leader of the tea party movement but not necessarily a leader on national security among House Republicans.

I became more frighten

1. Boner...Bachman...and Intel. definite Oxymorons!

Hard to fathom how those three words could possibly coexist together. It only gets weirder and weirder!

[Bobbieo]

7. Gets scarier by the minute and the fan has not been turned on , yet.

[spanone]

2. thereby kissing the ass of the teabaggers

[blue neen]

3. Irony is bitter humor.

The words "Bachmann" and "Intel" do not belong in the same sentence, the same room, the same government, the same country.

[craigmatic]

6. You beat me to it.

[blue neen]

16. This is priceless.

Can't you just see Bachmann receiving classified briefings with that "deer in the headlights" look on her face?

I know a guy trying to get a $16 an hour job who has already had to: 1) Take an IQ test, 2) Take a Drug test, and 3) Undergo Psychological testing. Meanwhile, Boehner is entrusting this peabrain Bachmann with knowledge of our National Security.

Go figure.

[EC]

4. Well, look at it this way...

there will be no more need of Assange and Wikileaks since the orange man just put the biggest blabber mouth on the hill on the intellegence committee....

[Angry Dragon]

5. Perhaps the weeping boner is hoping some of the

intelligence will rub off on her

[NuclearDem]

8. And the onion does it aga--

Oh.

Fuck.

[NRaleighLiberal]

10. Exactly!

:scared:

[mmonk]

9. Dangerous moves in dangerous times when our country has lost its mind.

[Donnachaidh]

11. he put the nut who was calling for a return of McCarthyism to the Intel Panel?

Now I KNOW he's a sloppy drunk who isn't fit to shovel dog shit at a kennel. :grr:

[11 Bravo]

12. Some jokes just write themselves.

[lonestarnot]

13. Oh fucking boy.

OMG.

[lonestarnot]

14. Oh fucking boy.

OMG.

[dixiegrrrrl]

15. This needs a rec, for others to see, and puke.

K&R

[spindrifter]

17. the lowest common denominator...

[TheKentuckian]

18. If the rest of the world had any sense they would pool resources to take us out.

We are dangerous people with a dangerous disconnect from sanity.

[Swede]

19. I just love the Onion.

Oh,wait. Nevermind.

[Karenina]

20. Elections have consequences. nt

21. Bohner makes a boo-boo

Not a great start in his decision making - he may just cause some problems in his own party.

Taking bets - how long until she can't stand it and spills international secrets to Sarah Half-Term? We will be able to tell by the tweets.

I hope that someone up there is looking after our country because we are in a sh*tload of trouble starting 1/3/11. There should be some sort of requirement that Boner can't make any decisions after 10am so we can at least hope for a somewhat sober Leader of the House. :/

NO HAPPY HOUR DECISIONS ALLOWED!!!

[jwirr]

22. John thinks that is the line to receive brains. You know like a bread line

but instead a brain line. :evilgrin:

[Tyrs WolfDaemon]

23. I did a double take and a triple read

The only thing I can remotely fathom is that she caught him in a bar one evening and threatened to sleep with him if he didn't put her on the committee. I'm sure I would have offered her anything to prevent that too if I happened to be wasted and threatened with the option of waking up the next morning with her in the bed.

[jberryhill]

24. Well that'll make Wikileaks irrelevant in short order

She's going to leak like a sieve

[gateley]

25. Yeah, but WikiLeaks gets the facts straight, Bachmann doesn't. nt

[lpbk2713]

26. This confirms my suspicions.

I always thought Gawd created rethuglicans just to show he had a sense of humor.
Now I know it's true.

:rofl:

[Hannah Bell]

27. she'll do what she's told by her controllers.

[emulatorloo]

28. Wow N/t
