Quotes From The Dark Side: Michele Bachmann
This woman has spewed so much idiocy, I could write all day and not cover half of the hilariously frightening bile to come from her mouth. I’d call is A Cavalcade of Blowhard Bachmann Ejecta. “Carbon dioxide is portrayed as harmful. But there isn’t even one study that can be produced that shows that carbon…
