What I don’t think of is the posse of Michele Bachmann, Louie Gohmert and Steve King heading to Cairo, Egypt on some sort of “mission of diplomacy.”
Because let’s face it, these are three of the most ridiculous members
of Congress. And by ridiculous I mean radically right-wing lunatics
that only appeal to the furthest reaches of the Republican party. These
people make George W. Bush seem competent.
Yet there they went to Egypt to—support the U.S. policy against the
recent brutal coup that overthrew the sitting Egyptian leader?
Oh no, they went there and praised the
coup. Even though the United States has publicly denounced the actions
of the coup as extremely violent and brutal, so much so that aid to
Egypt might be suspended.
