Rep. Michele Bachmann actually thinks the Rapture is nigh thanks to President Barack Obama's policies -- a hilariously minor stain on humanity's otherwise filthy reputation.

In an interview with End Times host Jan Markell, Bachmann said, "We need to realize how close this clock is to getting towards the midnight hour." She continued:

"It's just like the Bible forewarned: in the last days it will be like the beginning of birth pangs. In my opinion, we are far beyond the beginning of birth pangs. We're moving far down into the process. For women who are listening to this show today, you know what I'm talking about. What it's like to deliver a baby at the very beginning stages and then at the very end before the baby is born. All I can tell you as a mom who has given birth to five babies, the birth pangs are very close together, they are very intense now and we are literally watching month by month the speed move up to a level we've never seen before with these events. Barack Obama is intent, it is his number one goal, to ensure that Iran has a nuclear weapon. Why? Why would you put the nuclear weapon in the hands of mad men?"

She then said that we should rejoice that we are in these days (well, not me, but Christians) because the end of days means that Jesus is coming back!
