If it were (almost) any Rep. but Bachmann, I'd be worried she knew something I didn't(besides marital life with a gay man, I mean) But since it is Bachmann, she's probably cheating on her taxes.(She worked for the IRS...not hard, but she did.
Oh, I'm gonna go to the special hell.

Michelle Bachmann's a Swiss citizen? Huh?
Yes, apparently she just applied for and got citizenship (her husband is a dual citizen? Or was eligible for it? So she was too). I have no idea WHY, but it seems a very anti-American thing to do IF YOU"RE ALL ABOUT HOW MUCH YOU LOVE AMERICA! (In general I have no issue with dual citizenship)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
(I've also had a really rotten day of seeing people all over twitter/fb saying all of NC can go fuck itself, or drop off into the sea, or should go ahead and secede, or other such, and it's a kick in the face to the many thousands of us who poured our hearts into the fight against it. I'm not sure I'm quite rational on the subject yet)

Huh. If Obama spent three days in Switzerland, he'd get lambasted as a hippie-socialist-European-wannabe. I'm sure Bachmann's citizenship games will be praised for finding a way around onerous, unreasonable US taxation.

Our wings are not tired.
amych, I know I am not alone in appreciation for the battle you and so many others waged on the ground in NC. I'm sorry. I am sure it is that much harder for those witnessing the disappointment locally.

wrod. Been there, amych. *I* can say "Fuck Arizona," and I do quite a lot, but screw you, if you say that after a layover at Sky Harbor. I'm so happy to provide you your little Good N. Evil fix for the day.(Although I probably used to do that to y'all Southerners before we went all nouveau Confederate and all. If I did, I'm really sorry.)

Dude, I totally had a layover at Sky Harbor that one time!
