John Boehner has appointed Michele Bachmann to the house intelligence committee.
OK, let’s have a contest. I’ll start.
Appointing Michele Bachmann to the Intelligence Committee is like …
… giving a Nobel prize to the Three Stooges.

Calling the cub scouts to put out an industrial factory fire.
… plucking a chicken to make a down quilt?
Appointing Perez Hilton to head up the CIA.
Appointing a fox to guard the hen house? Cept she’s not really a fox.
Electing George W Bush president?
Adopting the “Bed Intruder” song as the new national anthem.
Canned mushrooms on home made pizza.
Chris Matthews will have fun with this. And, he better get hiss ass into a witness protection program as soon as possible.
Putting Bachmann on the committee is like a brilliant maneuver to confuse those who spy on the committee with a steady supply of misinformation and disinformation.
Baking a cup cake to feed an army!
It’s a brilliant ploy to prove his and Bachmann’s pet theory that the government is incompetent.
Self-fulfilling prophecies, gotta love them.
Electing Dan Quayle as Vice President.
…is like choosing a blue whale as your pack animal for a trip across the Sahara.
…overloading the irony meter without even trying
…appointing a dinosaur to head the House Science and Technology Committee? Oh. Wait.
Appointing Michele Bachmann to the Intelligence Committee is like…
Like appointing Ron Paul as head of the Fed oversight committee. Of course it makes sense, even as it is nonfunctional and stupid, because GOP boilerplate is that government doesn’t work. These appointment help guarantee government won’t work. Wash, rinse, repeat.
At one point the GOP was concerned with government working. Then they shifted toward terrorism and not allowing it to function if they were not in charge. Now, placed in charge, they can’t give up on the anti-government reflex.
Having driven the system into the ditch they now find it is going to be easier to sink it in the mud until it sinks out of sight than get it back on the road. Having criticized government for so long they have forgotten the function it serves.
Appointing George W Bush to the presidency?
…replacing sex education with abstinence preaching.
… is, like, totally the worst idea ever. For real.
…is like.ly to result in a disaster.
…is like appointing a rotting corpse with the head blown half-way off…uh…to the Intelligence Committee.
And, regarding the title of this post, I just realized that Boehner’s Boner would likely look just like a carrot. Where’s the brain-bleach?
Wait…I thought we had this thread over @PZ’s place the other day. Oops, my bad, that was “Jeebus is…”.
I wonder how many of the comments on that thread would fit here?
Like having Sister Sarah running as Vice President.
Like giving keys to a burglar, yet still feeling safe.
Like taking a YEC on an archeological dig.
Based on years of nursing on a transplant unit (liver), I think Boehner has liver disease caused by ETOH. His orange coloring is jaundice and his crying spells are classic alcoholic behaviour. Are we safe having someone so unfit in such a high government position?
Oh, boy. http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/senate-races/134427-bachmann-kicks-up-fundraising-storm-and-senate-speculation
Equivalent to nominating lutefisk as the US most popular food.
Appointing Cardinal Ratzinger to punish cases of clerical child abuse.
…appointing Bernie Madoff as Treasury Secretary?
…appointing Ted Nugent as Secretary of the Interior?
…appointing Dick Cheney to manage U.S. energy policy?
An excellent example of the American way
… a day without sunshine?
… a day without orange juice? Which suddenly reminds us that Michele Bachmann could be Anita Bryant reincarnated.
Having Mike Rowe host a program on the Food Network.
â?¦ like calling creationism science.
â?¦ like letting the Institute for Historical Review have control over WWII history books.
â?¦ like letting Rapiscan dictate what levels of backscatter radiation are safe.
â?¦ like believing what the Council for Tobacco Research has to say about cigarettes.
…like using the words “Sarah Palin” and “reality” in the same sentence?
…like praying when your kids get sick.
…like treating cancer with homeopathy.
…more like treating it with increased cigarette smoking, now that I think about it.
Could it be that John Boehner is really American hero and legend, Boner Billy?
