MICHELLE Bachmann has launched her presidential campaign with the ritual machine-gunning of a pig.

The 55 year-old Republican congresswoman delivered a passionate speech in her birthplace of Waterloo, Iowa before producing the automatic weapon from behind the podium, putting on a pair of goggles and then spraying the animal with high calibre bullets.

In accordance with Bachmann's instructions the pig was dressed as Diane Keaton in Annie Hall.

Bachmann then dismembered the pig with an axe and tossed the chunks towards a group of children from a local elementary school who fought over the raw meat like rabid hyenas. Encouraging the youngsters to fight, she picked up a megaphone and screamed: "Blood! Blood! BLOOOOOOOOD!"

5. I really wish we had a rule here that parody posts needed to be so marked in their headline.

Given the way the world is today, far too many of them could
be real, especially (for example) when you consider how gun
people feel about firing on "full auto".

After all, years ago you would have thought it a parody of some
sort if you read about a small boy who killed himself firing the
full-automatic weapon his father handed him at a gun show,
but here in modern America, that became reality. :(

6. I liked the bit about Iowa's new constitutional amendment . . .

It bans marriage between two people who can read.
