I Remember, I Remember When I Lost My Mind

Amid all the insanity of the final day of the government shutdown/threatened default/Tea Party tantrum, this also happened

Amid all the chaos of the last-minute deal in Washington, there was an unusual moment on the House floor moments after the bill passed.

A House stenographer and well-known employee calmly took to a microphone and began screaming.

"Do not be deceived. God shall not be mocked. A House divided cannot stand," she said, according to a House GOP aide. After a few seconds, she was escorted out by the Sergeant-at-Arms, but an audio recording by Todd Zwillich of Public Radio International captured the rest of her rant.

"He will not be mocked, He will not be mocked, (don't touch me) He will not be mocked. The greatest deception here, is that this is not one nation under God. It never was. Had it been... it would not have been... No. it would not have been... the Constitution would not have been written by Free Masons... and go against God. You cannot serve two masters. You cannot serve two masters. Praise be to God, Lord Jesus Christ."

Ummmm....wow. And I thought the craziest thing I would ever hear during this debacle was that asshat Republican from Florida saying that a default would be a good thing for the global markets.

But Free Masons?? I don't thing they've gotten a callout in politics like that since John Quincy Adams was President.

But hey, if the Crazy Contingent of the GOP wants to break off and form their own party...just saying there's a moribund party name just sitting there waiting to be used.
