Congresswoman Michele Bachmann looks more and more like a politician with permanent foot-in-mouth disease.
Yes, the 6th District Republican representative is opened her mouth again and, surprise, says something — either outrageous or wrong.
This week it was both.
Bachmann said Monday that she found it was an “interesting coincidence” that the last swine flu outbreak occurred under a Democratic president. She said that the current swine flu outbreak under Obama was similar to a swine flu outbreak in 1976.
However, Bachmann was wrong, again.
The 1976 swine flu outbreak occurred under Republican President Gerald Ford. The 1976 outbreak started when an Army private died and four other soldiers were hospitalized at Fort Dix in New Jersey. Democratic President Jimmy Carter continued the swine flu shot program when he actually took office in early 1977.
This is not the last or the first time Bachmann has opened her mouth and inserted her foot.

Bachmann has become the poster child for bizarre politicians. She also is an embarrassment to both the 6th District and Minnesota.
