It truly doesn't get any stupider that this ...

Michele Bachmann thinks founding fathers ended slavery

Tea Party GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann thinks founding fathers ended slavery : SFGate: Politics Blog


Is there a history tutor in the house? 'Cause Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-MN, needs one bad. The Tea Party fave said that "the very founders that wrote those documents worked tirelessly until slavery was no more in the United States....Men like John Quincy Adams, who would not rest until slavery was extinguished in the country."

True, J.Q. Adams didn't rest before slavery ended...he died. Or maybe he was just taking a dirt nap.

As for a few other points from the rest of Bachmann's Bizarro U.S. History Class, Thomas Jefferson -- who wrote that all men are created equal -- owned slaves. And perhaps did more than own them. George "Father of the Country" Washington owned human property, too.

Oh, yeah, and that Constitution that Bachmann waves around, it established that a slave counted as 3/5ths of a human being. The provision was inserted into the document as a political compromise -- except it compromised human dignity.

Where did Michele make her comments: Before an anti-tax group in Iowa. Yup, she's testing the presidential waters.

I really can't tell who is the Bigger Idiot? Palin or Bachmann

Even more hilarious are the congressional (R)'s already coming out and *revisiting* history in having to defend her ... I suggest this is on track from what we've seen with the GOP 2012 POTUS candidacy ...
