ABC News and CNN are reporting that Michele Bachmann, shown here ripping pages out of our version of universal health care, has received citizenship in Switzerland.
Don't worry about losing her from Congress, though. When asked if she was going to run for office she said yesterday that that would have to wait until she is fluent in Swiss.*
*Not intended as a factual statement.
Well, the Swiss are culturally very conservative. She should fit in perfectly.
They can have her.
Shit. I guess they’ll be soon making Swiss Army Watches that show the time in BC. Does this lady have a numbered account there?
What’s the Swiss term for “stupid woman who doesn’t know there’s no such language as Swiss”?
…that Switzerland has universal, mandatory, government-run health care?
I thought you needed a strong grounding in the rules of your own language to be able to become fluent in another language. I guess the Swiss will have to get used to cringing every time she opens her mouth. OK, I guess they need to get used to doing that whether or not she ever learns German.
Didn’t really do her research now did she…
