Ditzy Michele Bachmann (R, Minn): there are no trees at ANWR
Meaning, I suppose, that it should not be preserved, or something?

She talked to CNN's Ali Valshi and invited him to join their "mission" to ANWR this weekend. If he goes, someone should warn him to keep his distance from the gropernatress... not that it helped Bush a few years ago.

3. Michelle needs new vibrator batteries and an updated pic of the Chimpster.
That should keep her occupied for a while.

4. Does she get a finder's fee or something for drilling in ANWR?
Because she's OBSESSED with getting the oil companies up there.

Start the investigations.

6. There are, however, trees (or at least shrubs) in St. Paul
which made it that much easier for Bachmann, then a Minn. state senator, to hide from a group of gay protesters:



http://www.eleventh-avenue-south.com/archives/000491.html

"The state Senate on Thursday rejected an effort to force a floor vote on a constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage as thousands of ban opponents rallied outside the Capitol. Sen. Michele Bachmann, the Stillwater Republican who's led the push for the ban, said Senate Democrats have denied her repeated efforts to get the bill heard. Senate leaders countered that Bachmann, a candidate for the U.S. House, is flouting Senate rules to advance her own political career. At the same time, about 2,500 gays, lesbians and their supporters attended a rally on the Capitol grounds just a few hundred yards away, organized by OutFront Minnesota."

After the move didn't pan out, Michele took to hiding in the bushes to watch the queers rally. A reader tip:...

And here's all of them walking away. Notice the white blouse, light blue trousers, and the bald head of her bodygourd are very similar in all four shots. Bachmann's cowardly Minnesota Taliban self was COWERING in the bushes.


:rofl:

8. Fake Law Degree and worked on Jimmy Carters campaign....
Another fraud from Minnesota that has changed parties after finding a way to make money from fear. Douchebags family also pockets money from farm subsidies. Nothing good will ever come from Minnesotas 6th district, they are all a bunch of fruit loops.

12. Probably never been there, or is imaging it to be endless ice
all around.

And, since when do Republicans want to be bothered by facts?

13. She also said it's dark all the time there.

It's a good place to drill because it's always dark and there are no trees.

That woman is a dumb as a box of hammers.

14. She is stupid and insane
I caught the tail end of that interview. She said something like "It's dark there most of the time and there are no trees". That was in response to the environmental concerns raised by the interviewer. The interviewer could barely keep a straight face. She was just so stupid.

15. Oh yeah, the earth's tilt goes into *science*
That is like what I hear from some people that Minnesota is dark and snowy all year round.
