Michele Bachmann: Unclear on the Concept

Michele Bachmann is a representative from Minnesota that should have been voted out of office last November for wanting to resurrect the McCarthy witch hunts of the Cold War era... but either through dumb luck or the stupidity of a majority of the people who voted in her district she was re-elected. Sigh.

I bring her up because she decided to say the stupidest thing I have heard in a long time at the Conservative Political Action Conference this weekend. She said:

I just wondered that if our founders thought taxation without representation was bad, what would they think of representation WITH taxation?

The stupid! It burns!

How can someone this stupid live to reach maturity, let alone be elected to the House of Representatives?
