Craziest Republican of the Day: Jean Schmidt

By Michael J.W. Stickings

Michele Bachmann may be the craziest Republican on Capitol Hill, but she's got some stiff competition, including from fellow Congresswoman Jean Schmidt of Ohio, who, at a tea party near Cincinnati this past weekend, said this to a Birther with whom she was having "a heated conversation":

I agree with you, but the courts don't.

As Think Progress notes, back in July, Schmidt announced that she "may not agree with [Obama's] politics but there is no doubt he is our President and has [her] full respect as such."

Seems that was a lie. She's a Birther Sympathizer, and, as such, certifiably crazy.
