This is not from the Onion. I repeat, this is NOT from the Onion. Bachmann wants Hannity to teach
constitutional classes to incoming teabaggers in Congress:

WASHINGTON (Nov. 10) -- Is Glenn Beck University opening a satellite campus on Capitol Hill?

If tea party darling Michele Bachmann gets her way, conservative broadcaster Sean Hannity, Fox legal analyst Andrew Napolitano and David Barton, a Christian evangelist who has said church-state separation is "a myth," will make up the faculty roster when the first classes of her new constitutional conservative caucus convene in the next Congress.

The Minnesota Republican recently spoke on Beck's radio show about a new academic counterpart to the tea party caucus she founded earlier this year.

Of the three "scholars" named, only Napolitano, a former New Jersey judge who hosts "Freedom Watch" on Fox Business News, is a lawyer. Hannity is a college dropout.

16. These people are all supposedly qualified to be congress
people. They need to be lectured on the constitution? They can't have their own opinion on it? This is a great example of John Dean's authoritarianism.

18. I can guarantee some heads will start exploding when the teabaggers find out what it actually says.
Versus what they think it says. This will backfire big time, and it will be fun to watch! :popcorn:
