Michele Bachman is one of the batsh*t crazy members of Congress. Yeah, she's Republican, but being GOP doesn't make you stupid. This kind of stupid requires something really special. Anyhoo...check out this science lesson she attempts to give the House of Representatives. Woud it surprise you to find she's a Creobot, too?
We skeptics have a saying...."The Stupid, It Burns!" This does indeed burn. See if you can bear to watch the whole thing!
She needs to watch the video on waterboarding. Maybe even waterboard her...then we'll see how she feels about carbon dioxide.

Some other "mistakes" include the percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere (it's 0.03%, not 3%), and she's an idiot for thinking that by being such a small part of the atmosphere content, it obviously has a very small impact on anything. Next time, she might want to talk to a high school science teacher--or even a high school science student, either of whom could probably correct most of what she got wrong. However, she got it wrong because she's trying to make a political point, so why not spout science-sounding words to get your point across regardless of their grounding in reality? :)

What kind of human activity affects CO2? Breathing, lady.....
