Funniest Political Quote of 2009

(#13) "That's why people need to continue to go to the town halls, continue to melt the phone lines of their liberal members of Congress, and let them know, under no certain circumstances will I give the government control over my body and my health care decisions."

— Representative Michelle Bachmann,
Congresswoman from Minnesota

The perennially dumbest member of Congress has a great entry this year, mixing lies, hypocrisy, and irony all in one sentence. Ms. Bachmann, of course, is one of the most ardent pro-life and anti-abortion people in government... but accidentally realizes that the exact wording and reasoning of the pro-choice, pro-abortion people whom she fights so vehemently is actually quite appropriate all of a sudden.

You might enjoy the entire list of 2009's dumbest political quotes. It's no surprise to tell you that Glenn Beck features prominently, with 4 out of the 25 stupidest things said in 2009 attributed to him and his show. (Obama gets twice mentioned, with his "Special Olympics" quote and his "police acted stupidly" quote.)
