Worst. Analogy. Ever. Really.

Shorter Michelle Bachmann
Speech to New Hampshire Republicans
- Raising taxes on the rich and killing six million Jews are pretty much the same thing.
‘Shorter’ concept created by Daniel Davies and perfected by Elton Beard. We are aware of all Internet traditions.™
Jesus Christ what is wrong with this woman. “Mommy, what did YOU do to stop the Holocaust?!”
I say we test put her theory. Either it turns out all the rich people don’t die or they all do. I’m comfortable with it either way.
I guess it’s too much to hope that Robert’s Rules has a Godwin clause that can be used to shut her up.
That sammich is more inches than she’s ever seen before, hence the expression.
Oh, she’s just commemorating Yom Ha’Shoah today, of course!
My god. Whoever pays her should fire her immediately.
It’s EXACTLY like the holocaust!
Whoever pays her should fire her immediately.
I suspect the Koches are quite happy with her.
cont. from last thread: HST was viewed at the time with, what’s the phrase? Oh yeah, fear and loathing. Even at his sunniest and most optimistic on the campaign trail in ’68, hoping for Clean Gene, he was way too much for the Broderites that ruled the media world. Then, the way that campaign played out broke him as a serious political reporter, off to Las Vegas and the rest is history. Certainly he would be frothing about how things are now. I don’t think Izzy Stone would be faring any better now, despite his seriousness. It’s hard out there for a hack.
Back to this thread, need it be said again? There’s no business like shoah business.
I heard she was born in Canada.
OMG I must tell others this fact I read on the internet.
Sammich is go.
Awaiting fat suit for final confirmation.
Yeah, I heard that too!!11!1!
> Yeah, I heard that too!!11!1!
This is how it starts…
“Because this time the semites behind herded into ghettoes and ethnically cleansed one little bit at a time while the world watches indifferently are in the West Bank and MOOSLIN, which is totally different so it’s all good,” she added by way of clarification.
Also, Balloon Juice informs me of the following line at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner:
Somebody finally bothered to point out the absurdity of the “waaaat-me-racist?-my-best-friends-are-black!!!!!!” line. Well said.
“I tell you this story because I think in our day and time, there is no analogy to that horrific action,” she said, referring to the Holocaust.
So why, exactly, did you bring it up?
I heard she was born in Canada.
Now, now…I’m sure once she provides a long-form birth certificate, a video of her birth, and written testimony from both her parents and the hospital staff that were working that day, this will be all cleared up.
Then she can show us her grades.
She should have to show a long form psychiatric evaluation.
She should show us all of the properly-completed paperwork for the baby-farming she engaged in.
On behalf of my fellow Canadians, I apologise for Michelle Bachmann.
Also, Celene Dion.
But some leftist at a rally once likened Bush to Hitler, so both sides do it.
Once again the wingnuts defy parody.
OMG I must tell others this fact I read on the internet.
“Michelle Bachmann was born in Canada” — George Santayana.
I personally, would accept Michele Bachmann’s word that she is in fact a human being, and not, say, an alien parasite inhabiting a human body – controlling it for some unknown, but certainly malevolent, purpose.
I certainly support raising taxes to send the rich to the gas chambers.
How do I say this properly and with tact.
Oh, yeah.
Michelle? Fuck you.
With a bent, twisted and sharpened Garden Weasel hooked up to a 440 Six Pack with the throttle stuck wide open.
I bet there’s ham on that sammich too.
First they came for the rich dudes, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a rich dude.
Then they came for the…okay, no, that’s actually it.
But really? WTF is she trying to say, here? It doesn’t even make any sense!
I bet there’s ham on that sammich too.
No, that’s Canadian bacon.

Well, so would I, dude. But I understand why people don’t believe her, too. It’s really her fault, isn’t it? Her past is so shrouded in mystery and in shady things, and she’s not doing herself any favor by refusing to release her long form Certificate of Human Nature. I guess all I’m saying here is, Teach The Controversy.
But really? WTF is she trying to say, here? It doesn’t even make any sense!
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Obama. Obama is from Kenya, but Obama lives in Indonesia. Now think about that for a minute: this does not make sense!
what a classy gal.
Do you know who else is Canadian?

A cop once gave me a ticket for going nine miles over the speed limit. It was exactly like the gulag.
And the Foreskin Holocaust? How did she overlook that one?
One time my neighbor mowed while I was on the hammock and it was the Trail of Tears all over again.
I think it’s along the lines of, “Subjecting the children of wealthy to a tax rate substantially lower than their grandparents and equal to what their parents paid for most of their adult lives, not to mention far below that of any other successful, developed and wealthy nation, would be exactly the same as systematically killing most of a population, stacking them like cordwood and burning them, simply because of their faith.”
Hmm, nope, you’re right. It makes no sense.
Ah, the GOP frontrunners. Bog love ’em.
Chris – “I guess all I’m saying here is, Teach The Controversy.”
Indeed, it would be irresponsible not to speculate.
So what is it Michele, are you willing to undergo genetic tests to determine if you are in fact a human being? We only want to know the truth so we can put this whole business behind us.
Every other presidential candidate has released a long-form copy of their DNA code. Why not you? Or do you have something to hide?
My neighbor’s dog ripped open my trash and it was the rape of Nanjing all over again.
So what is it Michele, are you willing to undergo genetic tests to determine if you are in fact a human being?
This would have to be done in Canookistan, her alleged home country.
Right?
One time my neighbor mowed while I was on the hammock and it was the Trail of Tears all over again.
Is one “on” a hammock or “in” a hammock? I find this question to be infinitely more interesting than Michellllllllle.
I will rate for “in.”
And what, exactly, did the neighbor “mow?”
You know, it’s tigris, and I’m not gonna quibble with her grammatical choices. Claws you know.
I’m don’t dimple the hammock enough to warrant an “in.” He was mowing the back yard, trimming the edges, and blowing out the debris. He doesn’t seem to be able to do any of his tasks without a gas-powered engine.
And out of all those possibilities, for some reason I’m liking “dimpling the hammock” best.
It doesn’t matter what planet she was born on. Her father was Norwegian and that settles it.
What, me hoagie?
I’m don’t dimple the hammock enough to warrant an “in.”
Some of us are full-sized people. I don’t dimple a hammock, I distend it.
Some Other Guy – “It doesn’t matter what planet she was born on.”
I think it would matter if the planet in question were Skaro.
“I tell you this story because I think in our day and time, there is no analogy to that horrific action,” she said, referring to the Holocaust.
Well, there goes her pro-lifer votes. They’re all about making an analogy to that horrific action in this day and time to support their stupid ideas.
Well, there goes her pro-lifer votes. They’re all about making an analogy to that horrific action in this day and time to support their stupid ideas.
Ah, but we can’t badmouth Michelle Bachmann. Let’s just say she misspoke, didn’t know what she was saying, whatever. (Maybe she should use a teleprompter).
if the planet in question were Skaro.
Sarko? He’s been out there in front on Libya but where’s that got him?
He was mowing the back yard, trimming the edges, and blowing out the debris
I knew it was a mistake to let the Frau Doktorin read this blog.
Michelle, my bile.
These are words that go together well, my reptile.
Show me the
long form birth certificateeggAh, based on an actual genocidal event. That’s different, then.
And another reason gas should be $10.00/gallon.
she says “there is nothing that can compare to that so here is something I want to compare to that.” When Colbert does that you know the cognitive dissonance is for comedic effect. Is she just playing the long joke with us? Stop hoping dammit!
Well, at least if she goes on about the Holocaust being in “that century” she won’t sound like as much of an idiot as Dan Quayle did.
…at least not for the same reason.
It doesn’t even make any sense!
There’s all the proof you need that she’s the next Palin.
‘Gas chamber, or taxation?’
‘I’ll go with the..’
‘Gas chamber, or taxation?’

Thanks, leggy Jew 5,999,999 (That must have been a long tattoo, huh?) for reminding me that being grounded is exactly like being put in a gas chamber!!!!
So, one of my friend is complaining about the difficulties of getting a job with the government, given austerity measures.
Me: “Don’t worry, the Invisible Hand’ll take care of everything.”
Her: “The one that is giving me the GIANT invisible middle finger?”
It’s hard to argue with that.
Social justice is the Einsatzgruppen of liberal fascism.
Does this mean Bernie Madoff is actually Horst Wessel?
I can see Trump/Bachmann going all the way to the White House.
Then, when the security people catch them, off to Gitmo.
That must have been a long tattoo, huh?
Meticulous, they were.
I only know Angry Samoans through Foo Fighters.
Thanks for posting, I was gonna get all ‘nicht shuldig’ for gassing the thread.
I only know Foo Fighters ’cause Pat Smear used to be in The Germs.
in Soviet Russia, The Germs are in Pat Smear!
That’s it.
Backmann thinks that the ‘cost’ part of Holocaust is some kind of hidden socialist tax.
You’re teh smart, hunchie.

Ah, so it wasn’t tag-fail. It was Michele Bachmann’s spectral form reaching through the series of tubes to mess with my link.
That does explain a few things.
Wait, so she’s an undead alien parasite from Canada?
Awesome!
President to be on tee vee w/ an announcement in about three mins.
WTF?
If there is a god Obama will step up to the mic and say “I forgot to use these Donald Trump jokes….”
Or SETI.
^”something about” SETI
Best is that Geraldo is sure it’s about Libya while Wolfie Blitzer is sure it’s NOT about Libya/Qaddafi.
Maybe he’s going to repeal that Bush-era thing about Pluto not being a planet anymore.
David Gregory sez it’s about Pakistan & Bin Laden.
So that means it can’t possibly be about that. Unless Pakistan has been harboring Bin Laden & we are therefore about to nuke their asses.
Fun spoiled already:
Of course Pluto is a planet. If it’s not, then where do the Mi-go live? Huh? Answer me that, smart guys!
Dang, I was REALLY hoping for something about SETI. Now they’re saying it’s Bin Laden is dead and they have the body. Big fucking deal. Probably died of kidney failure. OTOH, I can’t wait for the freepers to face “Obama got bin Laden, Bush did not.”
They are pushing it back, the pressie, because they have to make a “mission accomplished” bannner.
Now they’re saying it’s Bin Laden is dead and they have the body.
Who?
Oh, right, the biggest Hitler in the world until 2002, when Saddam took over.
WHEREZ TEH DEAHT CERTIFICAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOLY SHIT!!!
oh…and that applies to bachmann and bin laden…
They are pushing it back, the pressie, because they have to make a “mission accomplished” bannner.
and a gigantic codpiece…
and a gigantic codpiece…
Oh, right, I guess they have to sober Bush up and get him to give a speech, seeing as how he’s won and everything.
He doesn’t seem to be able to do any of his tasks without a gas-powered engine.
he is a good amurkan..

All hat and no cattle!
Dead or alive. Beotches!
Oops.
It was the high tax rate that killed him.
okay, the cynic in me has been wondering what this will do for obama’s approval rating…
FUCK! SETI would have been so cool. Imma go live in my phant’sy world now.
Already said, but HE’S DEAD, JIM!
Millions of teatards will celebrate until it’s explained to them that it’s Osama who’s dead.
Obamacare’s death panels in action. Coming to a town near you!
and whats the wingnut reaction going to be to this, except for stuffing their fingers in their ears and yelling “LA LA LA LA LA….”
Millions of teatards will celebrate until it’s explained to them that it’s Osama who’s dead.
The same person who was complaining earlier about being given the finger by the invisible hand, was in a conversation with my Evil-Coworker Equivalent that went like this:
ECWE: “ugh I want to hear Obama not the newscasters
well he’s taking his time getting ready
rolls eyes
bush wouldn’t have taken this long!”
Friend: “you’re right
b/c Bush never caught bin Laden”
FTW!!!
Money quote thus far: Some CNN bimbotool sed [bin Laden] “who seems to have NOT been living in a cage…”
BWAHAHAHAHA
The freepers, meanwhile, are praising Rumsfeld and Bush. Because…. because… BECAUSE THAT’S WHY!
Millions of teatards will celebrate until it’s explained to them that it’s Osama who’s dead.
And then go into deep denial about how a secret Kenyan Muslim would never kill a fellow terrorist and this is all a fake, just like the birth certificate.
ARGH. cave dammit, cave.
The freepers, meanwhile, are praising Rumsfeld and Bush. Because…. because… BECAUSE THAT’S WHY!
Oh, let me guess: did they catch him in Iraq?

Surprised they haven’t remembered that Gates is a Republican.
And then go into deep denial about how a secret Kenyan Muslim would never kill a fellow terrorist and this is all a fake, just like the birth certificate.
They’re going to end up like those Japanese army units still living on little Pacific islands in 1950 who didn’t know the war had ended.
On behalf of my fellow Canadians, I apologise for Michelle Bachmann.
How about you just apologize for Tal Bachman. That should suffice.
I heard “a mansion near Islamabad.” More reason now to invade & destroy Pakistan than there ever was to occupy Iraq.
They’re going to end up like those Japanese army units still living on little Pacific islands in 1950 who didn’t know the war had ended.
I think some of them already have.

Wait – the fans in Philly are cheering for something? Hell has indeed enfrigidated.
I apologise for Tal Bachman.

A RINO, as far as they’re concerned. They hate his fucking guts. Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and the rest of that crowd are their heroes.
How could Bush fail for 8 years and Obama gets him in just a few? Ugh.
Yes, how???…
uh, oh…obama just let it slip that he is really pissed at bin laden for killing lots of mooslims…

Hi. Hiding in here from all the full-throated blood lust at the other sites I read. Jesus.
I just read someone saying we should give a Medal of Honor to the guy who shot UBL. I hate to say it, and I’m sure there’s nothing wrong with the man in question, but a Medal of Honor is given for extraordinary bravery without heed of one’s own safety, not for gunning down a sick old man. No matter how evil and mastermind-y said man is.
I would like to think that maybe we considered capturing the bastard, so we could try him in a court of law, but as far as I know America believes extrajudicial execution is sufficient now. I also read that some ‘family members’ were also killed — presumably also terrorists whose lives were forfeit.
I think I hear cheering outside. I think it’s time to close the windows, drink anything I can find, and go to bed.
I think it’d be much more interesting if the soldier who actually took out UBL turns out to be queer. Or Muslim.
HERP DERP
Also from the corder. Stay classy dude.
Obama>> “MY team has..”
The CIA/military is not OBAMA’s team…it is OUR team. He is thinking of the Chicago thugs who help in his efforts to subvert the constitution and diminish the USA and steal from the citizens to enrich his political friends. THAT is HIS team.
turns out to be queer. Or Muslim.
is both too much to hope for?

I agree with Djur. It makes me sick the direction we’ve turned in recent years. What opportunities to retake -or take- the moral high ground may have been lost in this event?
Pammy o Pammy what do you say?
Interesting, to me anyway, but the folks outside the White House all look like college kids, which means they were 8-12 when the Towers fell. That’s got to be a helluva stroke, hearing that the bogeyman of your (at least early) teen years just got whacked.

Theres a guy on BBC Radio right now who seemed to suggest that they initially tried to arrest him, only to get fired upon and killed him when they returned fire.
Which will piss off the righteous kill types, im sure.
It’s all a football game to these morons.
Well, that’s American politics in a nutshell, isn’t it. My team has a bigger dick than your team. Finding a tribe to identify with, whether it’s a political party or a bunch of dudes knocking a ball around. It’s sorta like folks who want Obama to twist the nipples of the GOP out of partisan brotherhood, I think, rather than just do his job. Somebody’s making a dollar off it, I bet you.

she is obviously happy…. in her own twisted way…. but she has the usual rotten mangoes:

2. Muslims are not celebrating, the fuckers
trolling the wingnut website, #1 appears to becoming the wingnut meme. In time it will develop into; “… those that are not celebrating heartily enough are moooslim traitors, blah, blah……… ”
#2 is the usual bullshit. Only anecdotal, but all the Omani’s in the office here think its a good thing too.
I suppose someone could do an “I” percentage analysis on Bush’s speech (or, for that matter, any president) and find it is about the same.
I suppose someone could do an “I” percentage analysis on Bush’s speech (or, for that matter, any president) and find it is about the same.
Perhaps, but you forget that white men can’t be “uppity”, so it’s okay for them to say “I” a lot.
I&I agree 100%, mon.
“Theres a guy on BBC Radio right now who seemed to suggest that they initially tried to arrest him, only to get fired upon and killed him when they returned fire.”
If that’s the case, then Obama and the DoD get my (much-desired, I’m sure) blessing. Doesn’t change how I feel about the teeming, bloodthirsty crowds acting like they’re at a rock concert.

Harry S. Truman is pretty spry for his age.
I went to ABC.Com and sure enough
NOT SO FAST… It is now being reported that this mass murderer’s body is being treated in accordance with Islamic tradition. I wonder how many 9-11 families, whom never even buried a fragment of their loved ones’ remains, feel about the “respect” given to this pos. I think wrapping bin laden in bacon and dousing the body with gasoline until there’s no recognizable pieces left, then scatter the crappy ashes somewhere anonymous, or down into an outhouse pit and covered over. If Obama gives this creep a decent burial, he should be impeached. Hitler never got a burial spot, and neither should Osama bin Laden! Do we really want a statue and a grave someplace so that other islamic thugs can show respect? NO WAY!! Say it isn’t so.Posted by:

and Hitler’s body should have been toasted like a bagle and smothered in cream cheese and then fed to the gefilte fish.
And Yeltsin should have been embalmed with Shirley Temples.
Roger L. Simon has about the monstrousness of Osama Bin Laden. Is it because he killed three thousand people? Precipitated a bloody war? No! It’s because he made people like Roger take an extra ten minutes in the security lines at airports, and that’s just monstrous beyond words.
…Pablo Escobar was killed and the War on Drugs was finally over…
Yes. Exactly. Back then, I was worried we might lose that war. I have a similar feeling of relief today.

the BBC are saying now that they dumped his body at sea, in the manner of pirates of the Caribbean. Which will piss the wingnuts off; grrrrrr.. “…we wanted his head on a pike outside the white house…”……… and these are the fuckers that whine on about Islam wanting to turn the clocks back to 800AD

Cue the “Obama’s lying! The whole thing’s a hoax! Body double!!!” in …3…2…1
To come full circle, Simon’s minor inconvenience at security is to 9/11 as taxation is to the Holocaust.
Fucking twits.
Also, too. I can haz America back nao?

Absolutely not! We must twist ourselves into even greater paroxysms of fear & loathing, because NOW THEY ARE REALLY MAD & NO ONE WILL EVER BE SAFE ANYWHERE IF THEY STILL HAVE ANY RIGHTS!!! EVER!
TPM reported that the sheep at “Ground Zero” are singing “We Are The Champions.”
I’m sure there were celebrations around NYC, because NYers have been inflected by the same insanity as everybody else in the country, but this is worse. There is nothing going on adjacent to the WTC site at night, so either tourists from hotels a couple of blocks away or natives from apartments further away went there specifically to be asses.
On another topic…the Lawrence decision made all buttsecks legal and see what happened: now everybody wants America’s back.

I think it was first used by TS Eliot, but became popular as a quote from Igor Stravinsky.
Shorter Mark Steyn:
Holy shit. Shorter some guy at Power Line:
The only reason Bush didn’t kill bin Laden on 9/12 was because Sen. Obama stopped him.
Makes perfect sense: we already know O has a time machine.
You really need to click on that link. He also makes the case (for lack of a better term? Dribbles? Farts?) that Obama was able to do this because Bush won the awesome war in Iraq that was distracting from the OBL mission so therefore Bush gets all the credit. Also it’s so icky that Obama admits he’s the president!
Bachmann also has a time machine. She went back and inserted an asterisks (sic) into her vote for the Ryan medicare/medicaid destroying plan:

Everybody has a time machine but me. WAAAAAAAAH.

The only reason Bush didn’t kill bin Laden on 9/12 was because

Great p-shop Tintin, everybody loves a good sammich.
““God bless the commandos! Man, I would have like to have been on that entry team! “
Go enlist, fucker.
The guy who wrote that did serve, according to Wiki. He spent two years in the Army . . . as a ceremonial guard in DC. So he knows about being a commando!
Rumsfeld immediately went out of his way to claim that the intelligence may have come from Gitmo. Look for the wingnuts to cling to that piece of dung for justification of how Bush should get all the credit.
When he goes without underwear.
Thread Bear, it’s already begun.
There’s a new thread vs.
Thanks!
•Raising taxes on the rich and killing six million Jews are pretty much the same thing.
You say this as if it was a bad thing…j/k!
Why am I so stupid? I got off the boat, looking for mangoes. Again. I now have to consume massive amounts of alcohol. It makes my brain hurt a little less.
If this woman is elected president, I am abandoning my citizenship. Seriously.
