Lifetime Achievement Award!

According to WND, which I won't link to.

>NEW YORK –”She is my heroine and my example … She truly is the mother of the modern conservative movement … I think she is the most important woman in the United States in the last 100 years.”

>That’s how Minnesota congresswoman and former GOP presidential candidate Michele Bachmann describes WND’s 2012 “Lifetime Achievement Award” recipient – Phyllis Schlafly.

...I suddenly heard Bachmann's voice and I cringed and wondered why the hell she was even being quoted. Turned out it was just CNN's retrospective on the past year, including some of the batshit crazy that happened...
