At least Michelle remains true to herself; true to her country.

So much for what Ronald Reagan called eleventh commandment - Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican
McCain is proof that Washington corrupts absolutely and turns even heroes into chickenshits.
Below is the letter that Bachmann and co. sent to the State Department. There is no mention of Huma in the letter. Where are getting all this?

It is official! All reports are in! The republican party really, truly is the stupid clueless party!
Was he crying when he said this?
Rinos love to stampede Conservative truth tellers.
Just more proof that the republicrats are in on bamsters reelection.They just want the control of the purse.
No money prize, but you'll get a Kewpie doll.
The republican attackers either cannot read or just want to take advantage of this opportunity to damage another conservative.
Why is it that republicans are always ready to do the democrats dirty work for them?
Michelle is doing her job!
