This, my friends, is what calling the census an attempt to brainwash children and implying the all-powerful US government is a direct threat to your precious bodily fluids reaps.

I hope Bachmann is happy now, as she's getting her wish. This poor man is a victim of the fearmongering the Radicals have sown. There's a certain quote by a certain man that's worth quoting here: "If you say for years that the Jews are not even human and that Russians are subhuman, such an explosion is inevitable." It is in that sense that Bachmann's fearmongering is directly responsible for this man's death. Shame on the Radical Right.

I don't get the second clause of this sentence: "A person who channels McCarthy and does that gloating over the death of a census-taker?"

But yes, I know the other things, including the last. Nevertheless, I stand by my contention that she will not applaud this. This is one of those things we will ultimately have the answer to with regard to Bachman - and so if she applauds, you may feel free to stop back and tell me you told me so.

(Also, ftr and btw, you did not say in your original comment that it is not implausible, which is something a bit different from saying "she would applaud this" - or I probably wouldn't have even commented.)

Lol, oooh, gotcha - that's much better, and much closer to "not implausible," too.
