I don’t think this is a complete list of gaffs, but it is a rather complete list:

I think you might find something useful there. :)

They can’t seem to get half as excited over Obama claiming a dead soldier was alive.

This will be Bachmann’s “Russia from my house”.

The difference is that Palin never said that. Bachmann owns this screw up. This ends her one day run for the presidency.

It was.... interesting.

All I can say is... Macaca.

One of the things that I admire about Bachmann is that she is never at a loss for words. She can give as well as she gets.

Only for morons who think that the names John Wayne and John Wayne Gacy are identical.

She is now IMO coming off as not ready for prime time. I hope Palin runs at this point.

>”I think we have been too passive in responding to this stuff. We need to intelligently forcefully throw this stuff right back in their face.”

I agree completely. That should be one of the main activities of Tea Party regional groups — keeping their local media honest. Whenever their local media unfairly smears the party or its candidates, they should send alert emails out to their members who should respond with letters to the editor, phone calls and posts in the comment sections of web page articles.

I did not realize you had a problem with the article.

I didn't read it. Where do you see me indicate I had a problem with it?

Matter of fact in years of posting, this is the first complaint I have heard.

Please point out my complaint about the article.

I take it you are not a Bachmann fan?

I don't mind her. Tell me, how do you draw so many conclusions
from the simple fact of my having posted a direct video link to the thread?

You see, in the first line of the excerpt, a video is mentioned.
The video didn't get included in the excerpt so I dove in and fetched it out.

You're welcome.

I love Michele Bachmann, but, why in the hell doesn't someone on her staff learn how to DO A FRIGGIN' GOOGLE SEARCH BEFORE TURNING HER, OR A STUPID SPEECH WRITER, LOOSE TO MAKE DUMB A** STATEMENTS!!!

That said, she REALLY needs to watch her step from here on out and stop with the stupid mistakes if she expects to be taken seriously.
She also did a piss poor job of defending her statement that Barack Obama was "anti-American" when she appeared on "Face the Nation" with Bob Schieffer. SHE DID A PITIFUL JOB AND DID NOT EXPLAIN IT AT ALL!!
I'm starting to think this woman is too gaffe prone to be taken seriously. I get nervous as hell when she's being interviewed; not knowing what the hell she's gonna say next that is stupid.
RUN SARAH; RUN!!!

My Sentiments on both counts. Hell, Michele is starting to make we hope Rick Perry does run.
