Moments ago the AP reported that a US Census worker, Bill Sparkman, was found dead.
The FBI is investigating the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery. A law enforcement official says the word "fed" was scrawled on his chest.
The investigation is ongoing, but on its surface, it looks to me like this might be the first casualty to result from the increasingly frightening Teabaggers, who've been emboldened in their craziness at every step by elected officials, Hate-wing Radio, and Fox.
I'm calling Bachmann out specifically because of all her conspiracy theories specifically tied to the Census.
More over the fold.
Back in June Bachmann started railing against the US Census because it was an invasion of privacy and an assault on liberty. And of course, in her mind, it's also all tied up with ACORN (who are, of course, Fascist Communist Socialist Terrorist Community Organizers).
Bachmann believes the upcoming census to be "very intricate" and "very personal" and expresses concerns about ACORN's involvement in the data collection. The community organizing program came under scrunity after charges of voter registration fraud during the 2008 presidential elections.
"I think what the threat of ACORN would be deluding the ballot box and the effectiveness of our vote," she said. "They will be in charge of going door to door and collecting data from the American public, this is very concerning."
Bachmann also expressed frustration at the president's backing for ACORN, saying he has supplied $8.4 billion to ACORN since he has come into office, a number that far surpasses the $53 million given in the past 15 years.
And of course, the Census will lead to internment camps:
It started with Palin whipping her rallies into a frenzy, calling Obama "Terrorist"; it continued with the Tea Parties; it grew into the "Town Hells" in August, with people showing up with loaded weapons; it gained steam when Joe Wilson shouts out "YOU LIE" to the President, and now this Anti-Government sentiment, fueled by LIES and promoted by elected Republicans as well as unelected leaders (Limbaugh, Beck), has found its full, hideous blossom in the MURDER of a US Census worker.
