The Cubastinians Are Coming!

September 27, 2011 10:25 AM

Senator Bachmann says Hezbollah might be installing missiles in Cuba. From The Hill's Blog Briefing Room, Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann on Monday floated the idea that a terrorist group based in Lebanon might be installing missiles in Cuba. Now THAT would make for some strange bedfellows!

House Representative Bachman also thinks gays can be "cured" through prayer and that Obama is a socialist, so what's your point?

So funny this person was the front runner for a while. Before she blew herself up being as crazy as she usually is by spewing anti-vaxxer rhetoric.

I suspect when President Bachmann's ambassador to the United Nations Sarah Palin makes a fuss about this, the delegation from Hezbollah won't be the only ones waiting for the translation.

Everyone in Lebanon got HPV vaccines, developed mental problems, and started putting missiles in Cuba.

I'm told she's not crazy, or we aren't supposed to call her that, or something.

Bachmann also has video evidence that it's a plot by Mutants to irradiate humanity in a nucular conflagration and is demanding that Obama explain why he hasn't sent the X-Men to investigate.
