THINK TANK BLUES

As the calls continue to mount for Michele Bachmann to apologize for attacking a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the former Republican candidate for President says she stands firm in her belief that people with ties to a Muslim extremist group are infiltrating the uppermost levels of government.
Last week, Michele Bachmann and four of her conservative counterparts sent letters to intelligence and security officers claiming members of the Muslim Brotherhood could be infiltrating top levels of the government as we speak. In particular, Bachmann named Hillary Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, Huma Abedin, as having ties with the terrorist organization through her family.
Top Republican leaders, including John McCain and John Boehner, have come forward to criticize Bachmann for the remarks, calling them irresponsible and ignorant, but to no avail. Other critics are less kind, calling Bachmann downright ‘batshit’ crazy.
However, a chief medical expert from Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland claims that Bachmann may not be responsible for her actions. David Barthmore, a chief pathologist at Johns Hopkins, claims that mold may be the culprit in Bachmann’s erratic behavior.
“I have been studying Michele Bachmann’s behavior for quite some time now. In the beginning, Representative Bachmann merely appeared to be somewhat outspoken and, forgive me…bitchy,” said Barthmore.
“I chalked it up to nothing more than hormonal changes,” he said.
“However, the recent attacks by Rep. Bachmann seem to border on the insane, or at the very least, appear to be hysterical in context. This leads me to believe that something in her possession must be responsible for making her this way.”
Barthmore says he read somewhere that Rep. Bachmann carries an old Bible with her everywhere she goes. If the Bible is, indeed, as old as has been related, then Barthmore claims this ancient religious tome is the most likely source of Bachmann’s insane behavior.
 “My advice to Michele Bachmann is to wrap her old Bible in plastic and put it away someplace where it won’t affect her,” said Barthmore, when asked to come up with a solution.
“Ms. Bachmann, spend a few shekels and get yourself a new Bible. And,” he added, “take a few weeks off to read it. Seems to me you could use a refresher course in being a good Christian.”
