And if you remove Perry, even better

Sorry, should have copied you to my last post.

Anyway, one of the points I made there: if having run in or run a national campaign is the criteria, the only candidates who would meet that standard are losers and incumbents!

I laughed my butt off when Obama claimed that his experience included “running for president.” I’m not changing my reaction to that claim now, not for anyone else, either.

“The Thin Political Resume of Michele Bachmann”

She also has reputedly torn tags off pillows, though the tags expressly stated “do not remove under penalty of law”.

This woman clearly must be defeated while we look for someone who is solidly conservative.

“And suddenly libs everywhere are worried about experience......”

Well, she’s a white Republican and thus needs to embody the collected wisdom of the ages and have it on total recall at all times. Otherwise she’s manifestly not elligible to hold the office.

Obama is God...the MSM talking heads literally said so and how dare you question is patriotism? ;)

The thing to do is try not to make sense out of nonsense.

LOL

P.S.

Running or running in a national campaign gives a candidate experience in . . . running or running in a national campaign.

It doesn’t give the candidate experience that adds to his qualifications, whatever they may be, to serve as POTUS.

(That said, how WELL a candidate runs a campaign may indicate his general organizational skill.)

Maybe we will find out.

Michele Bachmann's thin political resume.

The country doesn't need a president with a thick POLITICAL resume, it needs one with a PRIVATE SECTOR resume and the courage to throw the Ring of Mordor-on-the-Potomac back into the fire of the Constitution.

Bashing Michelle Bachmann in hopes that Sarah might run, maybe, who knows, is unwise.

I’m sick and tired of hearing about experience. It’s a fact that experience alone does not qualify anyone for anything. I’m also sick of the politician’s con game of creating the mess and pledging to clean up the mess. Experienced politicians are the bandits that have gotten us into this mess. Screw experience.

That’s an opinion held by some. I’m aware of that but I’ve researched Perry and his credentials are pretty solid. That’s not to say that I don’t recognize the TTC and gaurdasil fiasco however, when pressure is applied things generally get stopped. Both of those issues caused me to pause about him but I also read that he is a staunch supporter of Israel and has made the trip there more than once. That means more.

What we have to watch for is that we hire someone who will ‘listen’ and can be persuaded through pressure. I don’t believe Perry would go about usurping the constitution in spite of the American people. Not like the nightmare sitting in the Oval office has. That bastard works overtime to figure out just how to get around the Constitution and us and onward to destroying us.

With that said, he is not my choice for president but would very much like him on the ticket behind Palin. I believe the interests of the Nation would be protected.

I don’t have a problem as long as you are signing your own books. But when you want a signature for buying a book you should not have that subject to buying someone elses book.
Not to mention that if you want to be POTUS, it might be nice to enter the race and actually debate and compete with those you believe are lesser than you.

A crowning? Only will happen in dreams.

Go McCotter! LOL

This is counter-productive! While I am not about to endorse Mrs. Bachmann, nor anyone else at this juncture, I believe that it is a terrible mistake for Republicans to take shots at each other, this long before the Primaries. If everyone would just keep their fire on Obama, and wait until December for the battle among ourselves, we could do much to wake America up--and that is what is essential. Another four years of Obama, and we will have problems that are outside the scope of most people's imaginations.

That said, I will add that Michelle Bachmann made a good impression in the New Hampshire debate, and ought to be praised for that.

We can say what we want about Bachmann, but she walks the walk when it comes to Israel, and she started that walk at a very early age.

In 1974 when just 17 years old, she spent the summer working in the cotton fields on a Kibbutz in Israel.

And suddenly the MSM types turn on MB after a week of puffing her up. What changed?

The Undefeated started impressing libs and Dems alike. The MSM is coming to the realization that Palin will indeed run and so they need to shut MB down so that she’s off the table as support/a potential running mate (which would nullify the ‘repubs are anti woman attack with 2 women atop the ticket.) I honestly do not see a SP/MB ticket materializing, but when Palin gets the nod, Bachmann can provide valuable support and the MSM wants that minimized/eliminated/killed in the womb ASAP.

I have many problems with MB from birther issues to Rollins to her most recent gaffe, but MB is INFINITELY more qualified to hold the office of President than the golfing disaster that occupies it now.

There are many scenarios in which I could, despite my issues with her, vote for MB as Prez. There are none which could make me vote Democrat.

Are you serious? You posted my Palin/Perry and said even better without Perry but you would go for Paul over Perry?

Geez I need a drink
