Passing the Crazy Torch: Phyllis Schlafly endorses Michele Bachmann

[marmar]

Social conservative Phyllis Schlafly has endorsed Michele Bachmann for president and is urging Iowans to caucus for her, Bachmann’s campaign told The Des Moines Register tonight.

In a written statement, Schlafly says: “Most important, Michele has the courage to be a leader among her peers. She is a real champion in speaking up for values we care about. Michele is a woman of faith and the mother of a beautiful family. She has a 100 percent pro-life record and is a strong supporter of traditional marriage.”

Schlafly became a national leader in the conservative movement in the 1960s. In 2000, she campaigned in Iowa for Republican Steve Forbes.

In the statement, Schlafly pumps up Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucuses. .............(more)

5. She was once just a voice crying in the wilderness. Now crazy is a mainstream value.

I trust she is proud of her accomplishment.

6. Bachmann probably promised Schlafly she'd fire that tramp Marian the Librarian

(that was Schlafly as the old bat in "The Music Man", wasn't it?)

7. "Today the Eagle Forum, Tomorrow The World!"

(...or something like that...)

8. No surprise.

I would have expected such an endorsement from that crazy woman.

9. They both often show "Sankapu" eyes.

In Japanese this is know as 3 whites, as in when both white sides and the bottom white of the iris shows a lot, even when photographed at a direct angle. This can indicate disease or mental illness.

Just sayin'

[Ilsa]

10. Because being a parent qualifies one to be president?

What a lackluster endorsement. it could apply to tens of millions of other Americans, all of which would be better suited to be president versus Michelle Bachmann.

11. Traditional marriage, huh?

Hmmm. There have been some lingering questions about that, Phyllis.
