Good thing she quit now and not in the unlikely event that she'd be the president
and had to make some tough decisions. :O:

Well... that was reference to GOP "candidates" earlier comments. I'm not sure anymore who of those clowns should get credit for this one - don't remember exact wording but idea went as follows: "Its important to maintain strong defence against USSR"

...nice to know, thank you Mr./Mrs. GOP candidate.

I'm sorry, but does this woman make Sarah Palin look more intelligent?

Is that possible?

Bachmann can speak with correct grammar and syntax, give her ideas in an understandable fashion and is actually litterate. She doesn't ramble and will not get lost in a discussion of personal philosophy. So no, she is far more intelligent than Palin. In fact, she doesn't even belong in that category. I think she and the rest of the so-called Tea Party are a NeoCon ruse, and I disagree with those politics, but she's not an idiot.

Are you saying that Michelle Bachmann is unable to form complete sentences? If the answer is 'yes', then I would disagree with that. If the answer is 'no', then I would place her above Sarah Palin.

Respectfully agree. "Intelligent" may have been the wrong word.

I had to mute the sound everytime she was on the air ... :yep:

I disagree with those parts where you said "far more intelligent than Palin" and "no idiot". :) Her arguments often were crude, to put it mildly, and her rethorics malicious.

Anybody who actually believes in "Intelligent Design" does not know the meaning of either words.
Especially the first word should never be used in connection with said person.

I believe in Intelligent Falling, after all gravity is only a theory.
