Cult of EMP Crazy: Now a caucus

Posted in Crazy Weapons, Extremism at 2:09 pm by George Smith

The GOP-controlled House now officially has a Cult of Electromagnetic Pulse Crazy caucus.

Started by EMP crazy Trent Franks, the official announcement is here.

Franks is a birther and doesn’t believe in evolution or global warming. He is famously known for this quote: “Far more of the African-American community is being devastated by the policies of today than were being devastated by policies of slavery.”

And he accepted the Team B report on sharia law corrupting precious American bodily fluids authored by Frank Gaffney, also a member of the Cult of EMP Crazy, and the infamous William “Jerry” Boykin.”

There’s not much more to say except that you can never be too nuts or odious in the 2011 GOP.

In 2009, from here:

If a thing is backed up by hard science and poses a real danger for everyone on the planet, [like global warming], the Republican party denies its existence. If, however, the threat is something rather abstract to almost all Americans, rests almost entirely on theoretical prediction, is something not likely to ever occur at all, and then only in the context of what would promise to be an all out nuclear war, [like electromagnetic pulse doom], the GOP believes in it very strongly.

So it was written earlier this week in a piece on how the Republican Party has taken years to ensure that it has the vote of every single person concerned about devastating electromagnetic pulse attack.

It is a voting demographic entirely lost to the Democrat Party.

    […] Trent Franks wasted no time in picking up the mantle of EMP crusader and anthrax denier Roscoe Bartlett (R – Maryland), initiating another bill to protect the nation from the fate of being hurled back to the time of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. […]
