Our overseas cousins may not realize that Michelle Bachmann, while less of a publicity hound, is farther right and somewhat less clever than Sarah Palin.

For example, Bachmann warned her constituents in 2010 not to answer questions on their census forms because the Socialists of Obama's Big Government could use that information against them, particularly
if they were gun owners.

When Bachmann was told that advising people to throw away their census forms was technically urging them to commit a felony, she told them instead just not to list their phone numbers (which was optional). That way Obama's thugs can't call them on the phone.

She also made a speech to a Tea Party gathering in which she praised the Founding Fathers for making sure that the Constitution prohibited slavery. There was applause, because the Tea Party is anti-slavery.

So stay tuned.
