We saw a program with a man who literally died laughing on Discovery the other night - Curious deaths - never knew it was possible. He laughed non-stop for about 20 minutes.

but to be thoroughly Fristian about it, she's actually got a personality disorder with malignant narcissism thrown in. But yeah, nut will do.

But Bachmann was MEAN and NASTY and ready to use her power to enforce her petty hatreds. And she WANTED that power.

I see nothing funny about her goals.

If she were a true believer in the stuff she touts, then she would never have tried to (literally) run away from those questions from Dana Bash a few months ago, plus we'd actually see her appearing on some of MSNBC's shows, eager to debate the Left. RWers such as her are afraid of being thrown hardball questions. Everyone here knows how hard it is for Rachel to book RW guests, for example. What has been working for them is to not only duck the tough questions, but to continue throwing red meat to their base through frivolous Obamacare repeal attempts and demonizing the media.

No, I don't think Bachmann is nuts; she is just a fear-mongering crook who is in it for the money.
