I think Bachmann is infected

I think Bachmann is infected by the same virus that has attacked noted pediatric neurosurgeon, Ben Carson. Carson managed to mention NAMBLA and bestiality in the same sentence as homosexuality. The last time we heard this it came from the mouth of Rick Santorum (Crap, now I've used came, mouth and Santorum in the same sentence). Hopefully, there wont be a term for a "Carson".

I think Republicans are infected by some type of virus that impacts their thought process.

The gullible people who cheered Rand Paul's theatrical filibuster totally ignored the fact that Rand Paul and the Republican party are conducting a filibuster war against President Obama and the Democrats. Rand chose the CIA director nominee as the rationale for his attack on Starbuck drone attacks. The GOP filibustered Chuck Hagel, the DOD nominee, an unprecedented event.

Kathleen Sebelius at HHS and John Bryson at Commerce had their Secretarial nominations held to a 60-vote standard. John Lew at Treasury had to respond to 444 written questions from Republicans, many ridiculous, before confirmation.Lew had to answer more questions than the previous 7 Treasury nominees combined.

Gina McCarthy at EPA is being blocked by Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO). Thomas Perez at Labor is being blocked by Sen. David Vitter (R-LA). The nominee for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Richard Cordray, is being blocked.

Federal judicial nominees are being blocked at historic levels.

Rand Paul just fired one shot in the ongoing GOP filibuster war.

By the way, some of Paul's cheerleaders should tell the ophthalmologist that quoting a romantic poem written by a Latino to the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is condescending. If you are going to quote a Latino love poem to show Hispanic how much you love their culture, you might not choose a Communist poet like Pablo Neruda if you are championing Libertarian values.

Holder hasn't released documents disproving such plans. Maybe Bachmann will go to bat on it.

In reply to The Peculiar Mind of Rand Paul

Rand Paul was praised for ensuring that American would not be killed by drones while drinking coffee at Starbucks in San Francisco. In the real world, when a US Army veteran suspected of fighting for Al Qaeda returned to US soil, the alleged terrorist was arrested and not fired on by drones.

It is unclear if black helicopters were involved.

Hooray for Freedumb & Rand

DEBARY, FL, 3/08/13: I accidentally shot myself! No, wait, I don't remember how I got shot. No, wait, my friend shot me. Y'see, we were drinking, and then he wanted to show me his gun, so we went into the bathroom together, and... aw, nevermind.

In reply to The Peculiar Mind of Rand Paul

Rand Paul gained the spotlight for his filibuster to prevent President Obama from using drones on US citizens in the United States. Here is the timeline of events from MSN.com documenting that Senator Cruz had raised the bizarre assertion that Obama would use drones against non-combatant US citizens to Eric Holder before the filibuster. Holder's response was, "No". Paul's filibuster was merely a stunt.

Rand Paul minimized the issue of when the use of drones was appropriate, and focused on an attack on a Starbucks's in San Francisco. A post filibuster poll notes that most Americans are opposed to using drones to kill US citizen who are terrorists both in the US and abroad. Non-US citizens, on the other hand are drone-fodder

Economic Liberty of sick people is under attack by government in NYC! The economic liberty to get fired if you're sick! The Economic Liberty of bosses to make you work when you should be in bed. Government oppression!

Liberty destroying paid sick leave, 5 days per year, in 15 or more employee NYC businesses by 2014? WTF?
