The problem with being Michele Bachmann: she has such a long, long history of saying batshit crazy things. She didn't get her well-deserved reputation for fanatical extremism by being shy. This means it's relatively easy to dig up recordings of her crackpot emissions, and that's what Think Progress is doing.

How about a slice of End Times paranoia, garnished with fear of a black President, courtesy of Joseph Farah, publisher of Weird Nut Daily? Maybe doomsday is near.

Well, I got Raptured early this morning, much to my surprise. At first I thought, "Cool! Eternal bliss!" But then I took a look around; Pat Robertson? Mike Huckabee? Michele Bachmann? David Barton? Sarah Palin? Suddenly, the realization sank all the way in. I was supposed to spend eternity wearing white, strumming a harp, ...
This is just what the Middle East needs right now: Glenn Beck Announces 'Restoring Courage' Event In Jerusalem, Says 'The Very Gates Of Hell Are Gonna Open Up Against Us'. Terrific. Beck's brand of high volume race-baiting and End Times paranoia ought to do wonders for the Israel-Palestinian conflict. Video

Only someone with a profoundly warped view of women could possibly make the statement Glenn Beck made this morning on his radio show. In a sickening rant, Beck actually mocked women who depend on Planned Parenthood for health services -- and said they must be prostitutes. Video

Coming soon to a theater near you: the film adaptation of Pastor John Hagee's best-selling End Times novel, "Jerusalem Countdown." Yes, really.

Today Glenn Beck tied all his ideas and blackboards together into one Grand Unified Theory of Bad Craziness. We're in the End Times, man. Game over.

Very, very crazy indeed. Here's an absolutely deranged segment of Fox News's web show "Strategy Room," promoting the idea that we're in the End Times, that the economic downturn and the "One World Order" is prophesied in the Bible, and that Barack Obama is the Antichrist. Yes, really. This is the "news" ...

Several people have emailed to point out that the recently arrested leader of the “Hutaree” militia was described as a “fanatic Ron Paul supporter.” Imagine my shock. My surprise, if you will. Adam Holland has a good post on David Brian Stone’s attraction to Dr. Paul, the current support Stone is getting ...

Details are emerging today about the weekend’s FBI/DHS raids on a Christian militia group in Michigan’s Lenawee County.
