CNN's Erick Erickson said that if a Census worker comes to his house, he'll get his wife's shotgun "and see how that little ACS twerp likes being scared at the door." Then on his blog he whined about being "misconstrued."

Happy Census Day! The government hopes you've already sent in your 2010 census form. (Census Day should've been before the due date though, right?) Even the president had to. But some people are scared of getting counted by the government.

In the "Crazy Lady is Crazy Like a Fox" dept., Representative Michele Bachmann has stopped telling constituents to be scared of the census—because if Minnesota loses a seat, it'll be her district that goes.
