The Idiot of the Week award goes to Michelle Bachmann for saying:
I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970s that the swine flu broke out then under Democrat President Jimmy Carter. And I’m not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it is an interesting coincidence.
This congresswoman has repeatedly shown herself to be one stupid cookie.
(via)
I feel you have seriously shortchanged Ms. Bachmann.
To say she is an idiot just for the week understates her profound ability to be an idiot 24/7/365/12/ad infinitum.
Yet what does it matter, soon, according to her we’ll all be off to the “Happy Valley re-education camp”. (ouch, I bit my tongue whilst in cheek)
Bachmann’s comment would be stupid even if Carter had been the president at the time. The fact that Ford was the president makes the stupidity industrial strength.
Beat me by two minutes. :) But yes, industrial strength indeed.
And in this case she’s not even wrong. The outbreak happened in 1976 when Gerald Ford was president.
And I have to politely disagree with you on this post. The idiot of the week clearly should go to Joe the “Plumber” for this gem: “I wouldn’t have [homosexuals] anywhere near my children.”
Ah I didn’t hear that one. I’ll have to look it up.
thats not when it originally “broke out” though
Her stupidity ranks epic proportions. But what does it say about the people that re-elected her?
Read my comment on an earlier thread about Reichpublitards tarring you all with the same brush!
All I have to say to that is Teddy Kennedy.
I love it when people bring up “coincidences” they find “interesting” along with the strong hint that there’s some kind of conspiracy or malfeasance going on. It’s not an entirely useless line of reasoning, but usually like a Rorschach blot it tells you more about the person than what there is to see.
In this case, it’s “hello world, I’m an idiot!”.
Your favorite Bachman and her twelve favorite hits:

I’m calling for a Bachmann/Palin ticket in 2012. With Joe the Plumber acting as their press spokesman.
In America? That’s playing with fire. Idiot fire.
“let me tell you something, folks: You can’t fix stupid. There’s not a pill you can take; there’s not a class you can go to. Stupid is forever. ”
Ron White, comedian
(btw, if it is unclear in any way, that is directed at Bachman and Palin, not our beloved Nope! LOL!!!!)
Hmmmm, for there to be cookies there would need to be an oven. Considering that I doubt her capabilities to negotiate and accept the use of fire than it must just be raw unformed cookie dough. Though for the there to be cookie dough, you need fresh ingredients that have probably been refrigerated, back to that whole fire thing again. umm, maybe unleavened, whole, wheat sun-dried flat breadlike substance, cuz of the whole no sugar, milk, eggs, chocolate type dealie. Can’t we just call her lacking in intelligent research processes.
If you decide to do an Idiot of the Year award, I think she’d be a frontrunner- she’s always saying dumb shit like this.
Bachmann is so much more than an idiot. She is straight up delusional-seeing-things-that-aren’t-there-INSANE. Here is the police report from when she was allegedly held hostage by lesbians (warning: pdf)

Oh, ffs. What’s the word which means the opposite of an ambassador for America?
village idiot for America?
Michelle Bachman, Republic representative of Minnesota’s 6th district, makes me ashamed to be a citizen of Minnesota and of the United States. And that’s saying something because I could handle Bush. He at least charmed some people by pretending to be a regular person.
I do not understand how Bachman got elected in a state that went to Al Gore, John Kerry, Barack Obama, and Al Franken. There must be something funny in the water of the 6th district.
I guess someone needs to do research before she says anything. I find it hard to believe people like her get into Congress but as an Arkansan Representative said ” You don’t have to take an IQ test to get elected “.
If Bachmann ran as VP for sarah palin, it might just be the end of the world.
California must secede.
Are you kidding? That would be the best news ever. It would mean the GOP would be utterly crushed, hopefully permanently.
What I wouldn’t give for an honestly consistently conservative party that wasn’t in thrall to corporatism and religion; the GOP either has to die or have a near-death experience for that sort of transformation to occur.
Don’t be so sure. There are plenty of hillbillies, old angry white people and delusional tea party morons who would vote for them. Anything to get the “negro” out of the white house.
After 52 years of life I am seriously considering a move to Canada or Europe as these fanatics are starting to scare the hell out of me.
Man, I know the feeling!
Lol, Alberta is OFF LIMITS to you then. =P
Causation-correlation fallacy.
Or, it would be, except that there wasn’t even a correlation.
The ultraconservatives seem to go for the simpleton fallacies; hence jokes about them thinking Hillary Clinton caused global warming. The jokers are pointing theirs out by making an absurd (well, even more absurd) causation-correlation fallacy that even idiots can see. (Well, we hope so, anyway.)
Feminism causing “the breakdown” of “traditional” biblical marriage, television or cell phones causing rude or stupid people, immoral people causing the breakdown of christianity and the country, the list of c-c ASSumptions goes on.
I don’t know the cause of Bachmann being an idiot, but she certainly is a breathtaking idiot.
How she ever got or stays elected is an insult to the people of Wisconsin. She barely was re-elected in ’08. Come on 2010!
My bad. It’s Minnesota that is suffering under her “representation”. Must learn northern congress people.
My bad. It’s Minnesota that is suffering under her “representation”.
A very significantly large number of Republicans are mindbogglingly stupid. I’m not saying all stupid Americans vote Republican, or that being Republican makes you stupid. I just find it an interesting coincidence.
It’s a dilemma any democracy faces – rationally, having progress and welfare in mind precludes allowing the stupid to take part in decisions. But excluding the stupid (or at least somehow preventing them from forming or dominating political parties) is undemocratic. What to do?
You could crawl in a hole and have someone cover you up?
People like you , bring clearity to my wonders of how stupid you people are.
Lol! And that post, you mental inadequate, is the very definition of irony.
remember at first the media said the flu had a mix of human, avian and swine viruses. now they say its regular ole swine flu. i think there were two flus. they let loose a controlled super-flu in mexico that they contained, then spread a normal swine flu everywhere else. I think it was practice to contain the super-flue they’ve genetically engineered. the feds have been engineering it since 2004 in conjuction with the WHO under the guise of testing to see if it could arise naturally. this was only a delivery and containment test. the real thing will come later as population control.
This guy has it right, i am impressed smart people came out of the woodwork to comment here…
Thank you!
The rest of you should wake up!
Yes mate, and aliens landed at Roswell and took over the world by subverting the US government with a a genetic virus introduced to JFK through Marilyn Monroe’s saliva so that they could farm humans and eat their brains with some faver beans and a nice chianti. Seriously, have you listened to yourself? You’re so stupid that you can’t even aspire to Venomfangx levels of idiocy.
You are clueless to the poop coming from your mouth…
I advise you to save this planet oxygen and jump of a clif…
This being said in the most loving way possible..Mate!
Okay then sunshine: Where’s your evidence. Come on, show me EVIDENCE that suggests that your views are anything other than Glenn Beck’s fantasy ravings. Please. Do it.

All you liberals are a embarassment to the human race as we know it…You will all see in hindsight the mess you allowed to happen, and you will have no one to blame except yourselfs…I would apprectiate the gays stay away from my kids as well…
If you want to be gay keep it to yourself….
It is no secret you like to play in the mud, but we would rather not hear about it…
Also i am ashamed that you wouldn’t hold your Pres. accountable for his lies to you…
Transparency? where is that?
Also get ready for immagration reform next…
Then we can all pay for health insurance for them too…
You people make me sick…
You will see in Nov.
1) Go fuck yourself, Teabagger piece of shit troll.
2) See point one, rinse and repeat.
Looks like you are just another coward who see a movement coming to take back america….
Thanks for the kids words…
No one can save people like you…
LLLLLLLOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!! I’m not even American you idiot! I’m what you might call the impartial outsider who can see idiots like you for the bigoted, brainless sheep that you are.
Riddle me with intelligence if you could…
Are you educated?
Great outsider communist scum here great….
Stay in your own country, we already have plenty of fleas here….
I’m guessing that (unlike me) you’ve never seen any country but your own. As for education: I have 11 GCSEs (equivalent to an A+ in every subject at high school graduation in America), six A-levels (each equivalent to about the first two years of a US college degree) and I’m now doing my second bachelor’s degree at my second Russell Group (UK equivalent of Ivy League) university. How about you? Mail order from a bible college or do you just think that edyoocayshun is evil? I’m betting you failed at it miserably so choose to believe the latter. Moron.
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
You should ask for a refund, obviously you were subject to the brainwashing from yourr liberal professors…
You are a sheep, and you are just another person corrupted from thinking freely…
I feel sorry for people like you….
He definitely failed the class on grammar (…) AND he’s reproducing. That is dangerous.
Pity from the pitiable is somewhat depressing.
Still waiting on that evidence to support your conspiracy lunacy, Mr.Arsehole ofamerica…
Imaybeawomanudick, how is that for grammer!
It’s spelled “grammar”, actually. You fail at spelling, too.
And since you choose the male honorific “Mr.”, I made the reasonable assumption that you’re male. You may be a woman, but if you are you’re posing as a man and therefore the fault for misidentifying your gender is yours, not mine.
@Custador
GCSEs … erm, well we all know how easy they are now. If it was O levels then I would be impressed … :-)
Being your a nurse you should know not to assume, but i see your flaws, and you cannot help it…Good luck to you, and i would seriously think about getting your money beck from school….
Why do you keep on about getting money back? Education to bachelors degree level in the UK is FREE – which is probably why I’m able to continue showing you up as a retard with no substance behind his overly loud mouth.
You are certainly one to ask someone if they’re educated. Nothing you’ve “written” could be construed as coming from an educated mind.
What a waste of taxpayers money, with trowing away all those vaccines…
Hopefully all you liberals took the vaccine…
Goes to show that most people didn’t by in to the media game about the flu…..
A man mad flu, from where? a lab? oh….
You have no clue about viral mutation or evolution, do you? I do. As it happens, I’ve had swine flu. I also had the vaccine a few months later (because you can get it twice). I’m a healthcare professional, and unlike you, I do know how it works.
Daniel, can you ban this idiot’s IP before I blow an artery at him please?
I am sure you have had swine flu…
Note: Wash your hand regularly that might help…
Hey being your not from america maybe you could run for President too…
You from Australia ?
Why don’t you worry about your own problems then…
You people there are helpless, you can’t even protect yourselves, from burglars….
No guns thanks to your politicians, now crime is up 600%..
Go figure, and keep being sucked into the plan you are not a part of…
Um, excuse me, but I already said I’m from the UK – you fail at reading comprehension, but you get an A+ in frothing at the mouth and spouting bullshit.
I’m a nurse. I wash my hands and alcohol gel them a hundred plus times per day – not that it makes any difference to me catching swine flu since it’s an airborne pathogen. You really are totally clueless, aren’t you?
K- Hey you said you went to school there, you never said you lived there…
If you think this flu came from out of thin air you are stupid…
Same goes for the u.k. how is crime there?
Horrible…Helpess felling i bet…
Smells like a Bachmann but doesn’t taste like jax.
No, because very few criminals here have guns. It’s great – if somebody breaks into my place I effectively have legal protection to beat the crap out of him knowing that he isn’t going to be able to take the pussy option of hiding behind a gun. Can you say the same? Um, no, you can’t. And since crime rates here are SIGNIFICANTLY lower than in the US (especially violent crimes, I’m talking orders of magnitude lower), I think perhaps you’d better shut the fuck up – ‘cos the facts just pwned your bullshit.

You are wrong again, you must reconsider getting your money back from college…
Right crime is lower in britain, you are so full of crap, i can smellit from here….
You make this too easy:
Your murder rate is THREE TIMES HIGHER than in the UK
Your total crime rate is DOUBLE the UK
Come on, where’s YOUR evidence? You have none.
Were is that from the “Sun”?
Nice B.S. fake facts….
You are a liar…
You should know when to stop , but being you are stupid i understand…
Still waiting.
Next you will tell me Globalwarming is real…..
I bet you got sucked into that scam tooo…LOLLLLL
Those are stats taken from each nation’s own crime reporting. The fact that you’re too stupid to admit that you were wrong and got showed up for being wrong makes you an even bigger idiot than I thought. You’re arguing against FACTS!!! Okay, if you’re so convinced that they’re false, find me ONE reputable source which says different. ONE.
Couldn’t find one, could you? There we go, then.
Incidentally, if anybody other than ol’ brainless there wants an actual intellectual conversation: Isn’t it interesting that the per capita crime rate in the USA (which has many guns and poor control of them) is very nearly the same as in the UK (which doesn’t have many guns and has strong control of them)? I realised that in overall rates I posted total reported rather than per capita when I looked again, so looked up the per capita figures out of interest. They make surprising reading to me, but I wonder if there isn’t some ice-cream murders style third variable to them – for example, more police per capita = less under reporting?
I’m American, and you are shaming this country and your fellow Americans. Now I feel like I have to make excuses for letting you somehow pass through our school system – or maybe you didn’t. In any case, I promise that we are not all that stupid and uneducated!
You should consider nursing your brain back to health….
You have no clue what it is like to live in a free country….
We beat the british to start our own country, so stay in your own cage, and enjoy your controlled life..
We are in the land of the free….
Except if you want to use mind-altering substances, or get an abortion, or marry a person you love, or enjoy your other freedoms in good health…
Other than that, sure. Very free.
Why would you want a abortion?
Close your legs, get birth control, disease freak…
Go do your drugs…
Wow WTF?
Marry your mud buddy…
“Close your legs, get birth control, disease freak…”
So it’s all the woman’s fault, huh?
I really need to ask Daniel to give a few people moderation rights so that idiots like Mr.Arsehole ofamerica can be banned before I waste too many brain cells trying to demonstrate how stupid they are…
You should be more educated if you are going to have sex….
Idiot…..
Why would you want to murder a innocent child?
You don’t need education to have sex, otherwise the human race wouldn’t be here. You should, however, be more educated if you want to post on an intellectual blog like this one.
Your the one in favor of killing innocent kids, you should have been aborted…
Alright, this goes beyond acceptable behavior. Personally attacking someone because you can’t handle the intelligent debate is not respected here.
*shifty eyes* What about being able to handle the intelligent debate but attacking the idiots who can’t? How do we feel about that? ‘Cos that’s, you know, my specialist subject…
(note: “speciali5m” tips the spam filter, apparently)

(note 2: Brain failure! “Speciali5t” tips it too)
I assume you have no problem with killing innocent kids, once they have been born, by preventing them from having access to healthcare.
good point tho-
You need no education to have sex…
You need no education to vote either…
If you make the wrong choice in either situation, it could have serious affects, on you and others…Well there you have it…
But in your case you would just murder…
serious EFFECTS. It’s a noun. Obviously you also don’t need an education to be a teabagger.
So you have no real facts, except pointing out gammer?
Wow…
And you have no facts either. Just tinfoil hat conspiracies and crazy assertions sprinkled with ad hominem attacks.
and bad gammer
“Gammer”: Old English slang for grandmother. The male equivalent is “gaffer”. Aren’t languages fun? Why does Mr.Arsehole ofamerica think that DC was pointing out his grandfather?
Still can’t spell grammar.
I think you should change your name to “Mr.America is ashamed of retards like me”
Win :D
Facts about what? The fact that you need no education to be a teabagger, to vote, or to have sex? You are attempting to redirect the conversation because it isn’t going your way. The fact I have is that you have no education about relevant issues, or about grammar. If that is incorrect, please enlighten us about your educational background and experience in the English language.
Obvious troll is obvious.
What a great idea since it would have obviously have made sure you would not have been born. Although I do appreciate a good lough and you’re a fuc*ing joke.

Here is your facts about crime in the U.K. gun control is not working, and you are helpless
You don’t have the first clue what you’re talking about. Those idiots are the Countryside Alliance – they couldn’t give a tinker’s cuss about guns, they want to be able to hunt WITH PACKS OF HOUNDS and they’re p1ssed off that 75% of the rest of the country don’t want them to – well boo-hoo, welcome to democracy.
Your link has nothing whatsoever to do with gun control and contains no facts whatsoever – you MUST be a Fox News viewer…
“you MUST be a Fox News viewer…”
I don’t think there is any question about that. Fox Noise and the buybull…..what else does one need to understand the entire universe and the world we live in?
It’s remarkable that people like him remember to breath in and out.

I know for a fact that Michele Bachmann & Sarah Palin contracted swine flu fromthe Big Pig himself, Rush Limbaugh.
