about

Michele Bachmann and her sweet husband captured our imagination in 2012. Matt Taibi of the Rolling Stone wrote a very intriguing article about her "Law School". It used to be part of the Christian Broadcasting Network and is quantifiably the worst law school in the nation in terms of percentage of students who pass the bar. Its primary mission is to get as many fundamentalist Christians to become law-makers and policy-makers, so that the USA can one day be run under dominion-istic Christian law. Or "Sharia" if you prefer. Amusingly, she was all for "small government". So small it can fit right in your bedroom!

lyrics

Hi! I'm Michele Bachmann, and if I’m elected president:

I'll give you government so small

It'll fit right in your bedroom

I'll give you government so small

It'll only hurt a tad

And since all I ever do is obey my husband Marcus----Oh---

He'll be the first gay president

That we've ever had

And I studied law at the

A vote for me will surely set you free

How can I lose with such an education?

Global warming is a hoax

Hoo-doo voo-doo shady science

Global warming is a hoax

Just a made-up whoop-de-doo

But have you noticed every time there's a democrat in office---Oh---

God sends a whopping case of swine or bird flu

And Marcus and I will win the nomination

I didn't want to be a lawyer, but my husband Marcus said to

I didn't wanna marry him

But my church and Marcus said to

Come to think of it, I don't really even want to be here—no—

But my husband told me to, cuz he feels that he was led to

And Marcus and I will ban sex-education

And Marcus and I will lock up all the homosexuals ‘til they are cured

And it will be the teeny-tiniest government you ever had. Amen.
