ITEM: Conservative media figures and outlets are saying they will refuse to complete the 2010 US Census, and they highly suggest you do the same. Why? Because the questions included in the survey are "unconstitutional” – and because ACORN is involved.

Oh and because if you fill it out, Obama can use it to hunt down Republicans and put them in concentration camps just like he did to the Japanese in WW2.

Source: Rep. Michele Bachmann, who actually manages to freak out Glenn Beck with this idea.


Which is odd, considering Beck was going around a few months ago claiming he was investigating whether FEMA had a plan to round up Republicans in concentration camps (though he later backed off from that, citing “lack of evidence”).

Still, seeing Glenn Beck roll his eyes at Michele Bachmann surely violates some law of physics. Notice also that he doesn’t seem all that impressed with Bachmann’s complaint that there’s no question on the census form asking: “Are you a US citizen?” – which she says would be a great way to find out how many illegal immigrants there are in America. (And then we can round THEM up into concentration camps, etc.)

Well, at least we’ll learn how many batshit conspiracy theorists there are in America. Just take the number of forms issued and subtract the number of forms you get back. The resulting number is the batshit population.

I'll find you,

This is dF

My mom was a census taker way back when. I don't remember hearing anything about rounding people up, etc...

She was probably under a gag order. Or NDA. Or whatever it's called.

Well, I guess I now know why she carried a tazer.
