Just asking.
Yes, but the factoids in the article aren't bogus, like the 100% satire written by say, The Onion. It's an interesting article, I recommend it. Humour plus information, I don't think they're incompatible.

Ezekiel 23:19-21

Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled.

Wouldn't it be funny if a sex tape of Bachmann came out. Not that I would watch it, oh no, not at all.

Hmmmm.

and after she bans all of the stuff she finds unacceptable, who is going to fund the prisons that half the population will require because they have broken the law?

I'm not speaking of Michele Bachmann here, but...

Consider the year 2031, when political candidates in the late 30s, their 40s, grew up in the age of the ubiquitous cell phone & camera. Old, long-forgotten (by them, anyway) photos/videos from those late high school years, those following years in the dorms, are going to surface. Something they or someone else captured, then sent to someone else. There's a huge amount of personal media available now. Fast-forward a couple of decades and you're going to find some candidates for major offices seriously haunted by youthful indulgences!

It'll be mildly humorous, though the puritanical reaction from a far-too-large segment of society will be sad...

And there is more>>>>>>>

It cracks me up how the Tea Party and others want a smaller and less intrusive government; yet they advocate interfering in the most intricate and personal aspects of every American's everyday life!

Hardly making the government smaller and less intrusive!

It is simply a conservative/religious social agenda/mandate that they want to push upon every American to live by their rules.

WAKE UP people!!!!!

How delusional are you?

Probably delusional enough to think that both the Detroit and Twin Cities affiliates of Fox News are in on the "dupe"...
Michele Bachmann Signs Pledge to Ban Porn, Gay Marriage (http://www.myfoxdetroit.com/dpps/news/politics/michele-bachmann-marriage-vow-pledge-july-8-2011_14035214 - broken link)

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Rep. Michele Bachmann has signed a pledge vowing to maintain a firm stance against gay marriage and all forms of pornography if she is elected president in 2012.

The pledge itself, and the signing of it by a Tea Party candidate, appear to be contradictory. Point 9 of the 14-point pledge vows an opposition to pornography, while point 14 vows “fierce defense of the First Amendment rights.
Hilarious! Bachmann is going to stamp out porn, and fiercely defend the right to free speech!

Well, looks like they got to the Washington Post, too:
