Rep. Michele Bachmann is a Flaming Lunatic

I hardly have words to describe to what degree Minnesota Representative Michele Bachmann is a flaming, unstable lunatic:

Bachmann has “introduced a resolution that would bar the dollar from being replaced by any foreign currency."

“She’s talking about the United States,” [Bachmann’s spokesperson, Debbee] Keller said. “This legislation would ensure that the U.S. dollar remain the currency of the United States.”

Of course, no one had been discussing any change in U.S. currency in the first place.

That's right folks. In the face of absolutely no one suggesting that such a thing take place, a sitting U.S. member of Congress introduced a resolution to affirm that the U.S. Dollar would not be replaced by any other currency. Seriously!

Ms. Bachmann is a disgrace to her office, her state, her gender and the human race. Will someone please make this rampant Republican insanity stop!

Update: A commenter at Wonkette sums it up best:

And this from Oliver Willis:

Both parties, especially in the hyper-partisan House, elect goobers. But Michele Bachmann is an amazingly idiotic goober.

Here's a great wrapup of the untethered nonsense that routinely spews forth from the deranged Bachmann:
