Disclaimer:  I am not posting this because I am hating on Michelle Bachmann, or because I am worried about her chances of being president (zero).  I just thought it was extremely funny. 

Damn that Renaissance!

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

OK, maybe I am hating on Michelle Bachmann.  How did such a crazy bitch ever get elected to anything?

She's actually paraphrasing CS Lewis, who once finished a lecture on Middle English literature (Chaucer, I think) with the line: "And then the Renaissance came along and ruined everything..."
(Bit classier than those she cited for her reading list back when it looked like the GOP might find somebody sane to nominate as a Presidential candidate next year, I suppose...)

One of the quotes was rather appropriate.

There is nothing so dangerous as enthusiastic ignorance.

Context, William: whatever else she may be, Bachmann is not a Chaucer scholar...

Right. She'd want to see the Wife Of Bath burned at the stake.

Lol, I miss the days of the plague and getting put on the rack by Spanish priest. If only we never had the Renaissance.

I am sure the next thing out of her trap will be internet censorship.

Well we do have several posters who will happily tell you those people either don't exist or have zero influence.

I see right wingnuts and left wingnuts, but haven't seen a real thumping fire and brimstone poster. Maybe someday I will see real BDSM thumper (I thought we were all going to hell, maybe there is hope :) ).
