In reply to the discussion: Rep. Michele Bachmann Completely Baffles John Brennan With Bizarre Questions During CIA Hearing [View all]Poll_Blind
(23,864 posts)12. She's an incredibly uninformed questioner and it clearly shows.
Her being crazy aside, you'd think she would actually have staff or something who would help her put together a question package. If you listen to her asking the questions, I swear to god it sounds like she's asking bullet point questions off a legal pad she wrote five minutes before the hearing.
The questions are...they show she doesn't know what she's doing, even remotely. It's actually kind of concerning beyond the surface because if you think about the stupid questions she is asking, think about the smart questions she isn't asking on this or other issues.
That's amazingly troubling- and she's already known for being nuts.
