Dare to be Stupid

My younger brother Colin used to make fun of a fundamentalist group called "Dare to be Great". Like the typical fundamentalist fraud they went around the country robbing the delusional in a bus. Colin called them DARE TO BE STUPID. The Tea Party movement in this country reminds me of the DARE TO BE STUPID movement. Here is a bunch of people that get no real information. They thrive from listening to people like Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. Glenn and Rush know how to get the DARE TO BE STUPID crowd all fired up. They are against everything, except tax cuts for the rich. They believe anything their right wing heroes spin. Michelle Bachmann is in a contest with Palin for who can be the hero of the simple minded. Palin is famous for her whopper about Death Panels. Now Bachmann has tried to outdo Palin. This is an excerpt from and article about Bachmans lies.

(ChattahBox)— There is no end to the paranoid right-wing ranting of Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN). Her wild accusations and outright lies, have run the gamut from accusing President Obama of perpetrating a plot to “effectively nationalize energy” and starve “freedom loving Americans,” and of creating “re-education camps,” to indoctrinate young people. And she recently urged her constituents to “slit our wrists, be blood brothers” in opposing health care reform. Now, she is back on her campaign against “government run healthcare,” declaring at a recent town hall meeting in her home state of Minnesota that critics of a government healthcare system would be placed on a list and refused medical treatment. Where did the wacky Congresswoman come up with such a preposterous claim? Some unnamed person living under Japan’s healthcare system told Bachmann that’s what occurs in Japan. OK then.
