Michele Bachmann claims she’s never had a gaff, and therefore should be the Republican to run against Obama.
Michele, here is a short list of your gaffs, mainly covering only recent ones:

In the old days, during Biblical Times, when we invaded a country we did it for a reason. To take their stuff and, when available, their women. This is God’s way. For instance:

About 30 Occupy Wall Street protesters have interrupted a foreign policy speech by Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann in South Carolina.
Bachmann was delivering the speech Thursday on the deck of the mothballed aircraft carrier USS Yorktown near Charleston when the protesters stood up and began shouting, “Mike check!”
They told her she was more concerned with dividing Americans than helping them. They chanted for about three minutes while the Minnesota congresswoman left the stage.
Imagine it. Then go brush your teeth because I know you just threw up a little in your mouth.
Just so you know, it’s all connected.
Or tomorrow, Monday at the Latest.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it, until Tuesday at least.
“We will always have people in this country, through hardship, through no fault of their own, who won’t be able to afford health care. That’s just the way it is.”
Here’s the video:
Bachmann’s solution for health care: Get in a time machine and go back to when medicine was cheap.
See Bachmann on the spot in Iowa. As pointed out by Avidor, this could be why Bachmann hasn’t held more tan one town hall meeting in her own district.
Five Dollars. Indeed. Have a sandwich, Michele:
Bachmann’s New Hampshire campaign staff, noting that their main goal was still to make sure that Obama is a “one term president,” has walked away from Michele Bachmann’s campaign citing disgruntlement with Bachmann’s national campaign staff.
If she does not become President of the United States and the Free World and stuff, that is.
Increasingly, as her apparent irrelevance in the presidential race, which has been very dissapointing to me, sets in and congeals like bad Minnesota Jello, this question becomes important. Is she or is she not going to run for re-election to Congress?
It is possible that Michele Bachmann could become the next President of the United States of America.
OK, that made me throw up a little in my mouth.
But more and more people are talking about her campaign crashing, even though she seems to have plans to go to New Hampshire.
From AP:
“Congress is too small for Michele,” said Jack Tomczak, a former political director for Bachmann’s congressional campaign. “Leadership has never given her the opportunity to do much. So I think she’s going to be looking for other avenues where she can be more successful.”
Maybe. But she does seem to be pressing forward:
The Minnesota Congresswoman will be in the Granite State from Oct. 9-12, including stops in Nashua, North Conway, Moultonborough, Henniker and then Hanover for the Oct. 11 debate at Dartmouth College, said Jeff Chidester, the candidate’s senior campaign adviser for New Hampshire.
My strong preference is that she stays in the presidential race long enough to not be able to run for Congress, embarrasses herself and her Tea Party a whole bunch, then fizzles.
Ripple in Stillwater has been keeping track:
Michele Bachmann has failed to show up for work in Congress 58.7 percent of the time since July 1, missing 145 out of 247 roll call votes. The last time Bachmann even cast a vote was August 1. If we were to pay our goldbricking congresswoman on a pro rata basis for the time she was actually working for us in the past three months, we would dock her $174,000 annual paycheck $25,534.50.
With each iteration of campaigning and debating, Minnesota’s Michele Bachmann melts down a little more, and in last nights debate, she hardly figured.
But there was a little bit of action:
Aside from the Perry-Romney duel, there was the unfinished business from the last debate of Rep. Michele Bachmann and the HPV vaccine. Baier asked the Minnesota congresswoman the inevitable question: did she still stand by her comment that a woman who approached her after the last debate had told her a daughter became “mentally retarded” after getting the HPV vaccine?
Further, did she stand by her comment that the vaccine was dangerous even after medical authorities uniformly refuted her claim and called the congresswoman perilous to public health?
Bachmann said don’t shoot the messenger, then quickly pivoted to an attack on Perry’s 2006 executive order that required 12-year old girls in Texas to receive the vaccine.
REP. BACHMANN: Well, first, I didn’t make that claim, nor did I make that statement. Immediately after the debate, a mother came up to me, and she was visibly shaken and heartbroken because of what her daughter had gone through, and so I only related what her story was.
But here’s the real issue. Governor Perry mandated a health care decision on all 12-year-old little girls in the state of Texas…
Perry defended himself by saying he had been lobbied on the issue by a 41-year old woman who had cervical cancer. According to reports, however, he met with the woman after he signed the executive order.
So, apparently, none of them care much about honest or accuracy.
I predict that she’ll withdraw from the race within 14 days, though I really want her to stay in.
Michele Bachmann did the following two things today:
1) She said “Two businesses I will visit in Iowa today are examples of why the President’s policies continue to dig us deeper into the hole toward another recession.”
