Do you have a problem with Michele Bachmann serving on the House Intelligence Committee? Do you think anything could possibly go wrong? I don’t know, but I think slots on the intelligence committees should be reserved for people who are serious legislators, not the political bomb-throwers. I also think it would be nice if the people on the committees, including the chairmen, knew something about the world before they were given access to our secrets and the responsibility for doing oversight. No one thinks Michele Bachmann knows anything about geography or foreign countries or really anything of relevance to our national security or foreign relations. She’s also not exactly a discreet person. She’s close to the last member of Congress I’d trust to keep a secret or protect a secret from inadvertent disclosure.
The fact that she is quite possibly insane in a true clinical sense is an almost superfluous complaint. Don’t you think?
