Still as stupid as always...

Michele Bachmann: Obama Fulfilled End Times Prophecy With Iran Deal

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 8/10/2015 1:25 pm

In an interview with Religious Right radio host Jan Markell this weekend, former Rep. Michele Bachmann once again claimed that President Obama is ushering in the End Times, this time citing the nuclear agreement with Iran as proof of the arrival of the Last Days.

Bachmann claimed that the unanimous UN Security Council vote to approve the agreement was “the most important national security event of my lifetime” because it fulfilled the prophecy of Zechariah 12:3 that all the nations of the world will unite against Israel, “with the United States leading that charge.” She added that God and “heaven’s armies” will use groups like AIPAC to defeat the deal in Congress and in doing so “prove to the world His power and His strength.”

So, signing a deal stopping Iran from developing nuclear weapons is "uniting against Israel"? Only in wacko world.

the religious right people.

As a former regular fine cigar smoker, I have a good eye for someone that knows what they are doing with one of those. She looked like she's been there before. She looked comfortable enough that I wondered if she's not a regular cigarette smoker. Now that's something she wouldn't want her fans to see.

The pics I saw were probably from one of those big GOP player retreats. So the boys were having cigars and Michele and maybe even another or two of the woman joined them. Not pics she intended to ever get out I'm sure but one of the guys probably just couldn't resist. I know that many times closet cigarette smokers will indulge in a cigar at events where lots of other people are smoking them. Especially after a few drinks, a smoker will need to smoke, and its a good way to get a little nicotine fix and preserve deniability. Just the occasional cigar. Okay.

If Obama has enough power to start the end times then it is time to bow down to this man

So, the Iran deal fulfills a prophecy ... but was an intervention defeating the deal (AIPAC, etc...) prophesized?

Is her point the Republican party is defying the Will of God, as told in the Holy Bible?

You can spray them away, but they always come back. Or maybe like a fungus infection. You choose your own metaphor.

That means God failed to demonstrate his strength. Right?

are fighting against the will of God.

Or am I missing something?



Funny how the 5 nations in the UN security council equals all the nations of the world, but hey.... maybe she can't count beyond 5.
