NRA: We're Racists with Guns

NRA spokesperson Wayne Lapierre tells his membership that, "Yeah, I have to tell you eight years of one demographically symbolic president is enough." And I thought the NRA was just about protecting the 2nd amendment. This is a man whose ethics are shaped by simple economics. Lapierre will say or believe anything for the right price. 

Inmates Running the Asylum

Former US Representative Michele Bachmann says that President Obama's actions will initiate the Apocalypse. To quote Ms. Bachmann, "Jesus Christ is coming back. We, in our lifetimes potentially, could see Jesus Christ returning to Earth, the Rapture of the Church."  

Unfortunately, crazies like Bachmann are found in great numbers in both the Senate and Congress. There must be some flaw in our election process that allows these intellectually challenged characters to rise up through the cultural backwaters in which they were formed. Their growing numbers don't bode well for our future.
