This Is How Low Conservatives Will Go
Michele Bachmann is now a private citizen, not a House lawmaker or presidential candidate, but she has still managed to find her way into the news with a provocative Facebook post likening President Obama to Germanwings pilot Andreas Lubitz. "With his Iran deal, Barack Obama is for the 300 million souls of the United States what Andreas Lubitz was for the 150 souls on the German Wings flight—a deranged pilot flying his entire nation into the rocks,"

Subject: "I can't discuss...
Hi Lisa,
I think I saw this recently on AHNC: Saying I can't discuss climate change because "I'm not a scientist" is like saying I can't discuss Republicans because I'm not an asshole.
Great line! Funny thing, though: you never hear a Republican say …
“I can’t discuss the economy because I’m not an economist.”
“I can’t discuss war because I’ve never been to war.”
"I can't discuss health care because I'm not a doctor."
“I can’t discuss food stamps because I’ve never been on food stamps.”
“I can’t discuss abortion because I’m not a woman.”
“I can’t discuss gay rights because I’m straight.”
But nooobody can venture an opinion on climate change. Maybe they should try this line: “I can’t discuss bribery because I’ve never taken money from big corpor … oh wait.”
I’m waiting for Scott Walker to say, “I can’t discuss evolution because I never evolved.” That will be one of those great days when a politician accidently tells the truth.
I'd like to see them all complete this sentence: "I can't discuss intelligence because ..."
Best wishes as always,
~Rick
Haha, Rick! May I complete the sentence? "I can't discuss intelligence because Obama and Freedumb!"
