BACHMANN CRAZY ALERT: "Michele Bachmann burns up Iowa, decries gay marriage"
Remember, Huckabee came out on top with Iowa Republican caucus attendees in 2008.

They are going to LOVE this.


Michele Bachmann burns up Iowa, decries gay marriage

PELLA, Iowa — In a barn-burning speech to social conservatives here, Michele Bachmann called Monday for abolishing the entire tax code and the Department of Education, labeled Planned Parenthood the "LensCrafters of big abortion" and slammed same-sex marriage advocates for going against what she called 5,000 years of human history.

<SNIP>

Bachmann delivered a scathing critique against the Department of Education, "along with a few other agencies, by the way, that I think we can live without." Those include the Department of Energy and the Department of Commerce. She said Planned Parenthood should lose its tax-exempt status — it's a nonprofit — and that Congress should use its power to limit the subjects that district courts can rule on.

That's because judges are "black-robed masters," she said, echoing a line she used during another recent trip to Iowa to lambaste the state Supreme Court justices whose ruling effectively legalized same-sex marriage in the state.

4. "5,000 years of human history"
There it is. Right there.

The funny thing is, that 5,000 years is all she thinks there is.

8. "5,000 years of human history."
That's all she thinks there is. Not just of human history...she believes there's 5000 years of earth history. Believing in just 50 years of earth history would be no less ridiculous.
