Radical Minnesota loon Rep. Michele "Crazy Eyes" Bachmann has had a bad week or so. Following her fact-challenged rant to the mouth breathers at CPAC -- which resulted in Crazy Eyes trying to outrun a CNN reporter determined to fact-check her statements -- now we have reports that she's under investigation by the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) for campaign financing violations during her ill-conceived run for President last year. Among the issues reportedly being investigated are Crazy Eyes' role in improper transfers of campaign funds and "pay-to-play" payments to her campaign for access. If the OCE finds evidence of wrongdoing on the part of Crazy Eyes, they will refer the cast to the House Ethics Committee for appropriate action.
Most far right-wingers believe that rules and regulations don't apply to them and are an intrusion by Big Gummint on their liberty. Would it surprise anyone if that mentality permeated Crazy Eyes' campaign, and cultivated a climate of contempt for the law?
