Michele Bachmann Attacked by Gay Robot

From the Iowa City Patch:

"On Thursday afternoon in Iowa City, Michele Bachmann encountered a man dressed in a robot suit, who shouted her down with the aid of a built-in megaphone. He called himself, "roboprof," and was booed and quickly asked to leave Hamburg Inn No. 2, where Bachmann made the campaign stop.

'I am a gay robot. I oppose Bachmann's position on gays, whether they are human or robot,' said the man, who declined to give his name, although he admitted to being the same robot who heckled Bill Clinton at the University of Iowa in 2007."

This, my friends, is why they call it "The People's Republic of Johnson County." It is where I spent my Iowa experience, including more than one coffee at the iconic Hamburg Inn where the incident transpired. (The Hamburg Inn is famous for being a campaign stop for every Presidential contender including Jed Bartlet. ) Oh, Johnson County activists! It's kind of funny when it's not happening to you.
