Whelp, this is the shit we’ll get to sit through for the next year and a half.

And Michele Bachmann’s at the heart of it.

I feel the need to address this idiotic woman. Let’s begin with the fact, as you should’ve already seen in the video, that she wants America to know that being from Waterloo, Iowa, she is like John Wayne. Like “The Duke,” she’s willing to sacrifice for America.

Fair enough, John “The Duke” Wayne, aka Marion Robert Morrison, was Iowa born, just not in Waterloo. The Waterloo John Wayne, happens to be John Wayne Gacy– you know the one who moved to Waterloo, IA, to manage three KFC restaurants, and then killed 30-plus young men and buried them under his house. But, at least he’s the topic of that Sufjan Stevens song right?

So how exactly is Michele like John Wayne? The characters he played in his movies, or the controversial, borderline racist he sounded like in his infamous Playboy interview?

Do people really take these BS idiotic comparisons seriously? Asinine politics at its best.
