I hope the Republicans (I'm looking at you, Michele Bachmann) are proud of their demagoguery of the U.S. Census. Horrible:
WASHINGTON — The FBI is investigating the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery, and a law enforcement official told The Associated Press the word 'fed" was scrawled on the dead man's chest.
The body of Bill Sparkman, a 51-year-old part-time Census field worker and occasional teacher, was found Sept. 12 in a remote patch of the Daniel Boone National Forest in rural southeast Kentucky. The Census has suspended door-to-door interviews in rural Clay County, where the body was found, pending the outcome of the investigation.
I'm speechless.
Adding... I hope I'm just jumping to conclusions on this. But officials are now confirming that this appears to have been a homicide.
Adding, too... Eric Cantor and John Boehner today:
We wanted to respond to your letter to us last week and to assure you that regardless of what inside-the-beltway media writes or what unnamed “sources” it quotes, we are proud to serve with Congresswoman Michele Bachmann.
Just saying.
