And now, a rant so absurd that both NewsAlert and The Blaze picked up on it. Rep. Jan Schakowsky, who once argued that government should destroy the private health-insurance market, here laments the radical nature of Republicans with radio host Stephanie Miller.

How are Republicans radical and extreme? Well, they quote ancient texts … like the Constitution! They talk about old heresies … like free people governing themselves! They’re all “tenthers” because Republicans believe the conspiracy theory that the founders added a mysterious Tenth Amendment to the Bill of Rights, and actually meant something by it! Horrors — or as Miller says, “Oy”:

It’s a long shot, but maybe she’ll talk herself into defeat.

If growing my own vegetable garden, having my family to store up a reserve supply and emergency preparedness, not to mention speaking my mind in politics, is radical, then honestly I feel no shame about it.

I'd love to see it, but seeing as how she represents the People's Republic of Evanston, it's a definite long shot.

Bump!

I'd like to know what she was thinking when she swore to uphold and defend the Constitution.

An extremist view for liberals is any views that don’t agree with the government having practically unlimited authority.

She is the most stalinistic member of Congress. She’s truly horrible and evil.

The majority of congressmen ignore the Constitution, since they vote for laws that violate the 10th Amendment.
