OK, Rep. Michele Bachmann was wrong in correlating Democratic control of the White House and swine flu outbreaks in the United States. So whom are we to blame then?

I suggest the Pittsburgh Steelers. Did they not win the Super Bowl in both 1976 and 2009? That just happens to coincide with the last two outbreaks.

Coincidence? I do not know, but I implore Rep. Bachmann to investigate the Steelers to find out if they are behind this and while she is at it if they are pro-America or anti-America. It also occurs to me that I have never seen QB Ben Roethlisberger's birth certificate.

How do we know this guy is an American? I mean, his moniker, Big Ben, is derived from a European landmark, for crying out loud.

Rep. Bachmann, your country needs you to get to the bottom of this because, let's face it, no one else will.
