10 signs that your Congressperson is Un-American

This is what an American looks like, people.

During an appearance on MSNBC's "Hardball" last week, Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmann infamously suggested that the media investigate Congress for anti-Americans views:

"I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out if they are pro-America or anti-America."

Completely needless to say, Bachmann is a Republican. Her un-American opponent, Elwyn Tinklenberg, raised over half a million dollars from un-American voters after those comments aired. Bachmann has since changed her tune:

"I'm not saying that [Barack Obama's] views are anti-American. That was a misreading of what I said."

No so fast, sister. Americans need to know if they are secretly repped by a Commislamist, Since every Congressperson looks American, we've identified ten key markers.

Print and give to your neighbors:

"That was a misreading of what I said." Literary satire is dead. Satire as reality is born.

How many other republican Congresspeople think the same way but are just a little smarter than this idiot and keep it to themselves?

Hmmm. All of those tags, and you still left out "nutcase" and "lunatic".
