I’m just happy Perry or Cain didn’t say it. Newt was right, it’s all a gotcha game for our side. There is no more media, it’s dead.

I hope that we will all join ranks and go out and vote for the Republican candidate November 2012. Please, no more 2008 fiasco! Hold your nose if you have to but vote for the Republican finalist because....Obama is the alternative.

I will vote for the Republican whether I like the person or not. We cannot afford to not vote as many Republicans did in 2008. It is bad enough that we have a Marxist fraud for four years, we cannot afford to have him for a full eight years.

No one has perfect knowledge, and no one speaks perfectly in these types of situations. I want a President who, given the right information, can arrive at the right conclusion and do the right thing. As far as I am concerned, debates are nearly worthless.

I’d open one, and then close it.

According to reports, Bachmann applauded the U.K.’s move, adding, “That’s exactly what I would do [if I were president]. We wouldn’t have an embassy in Iran. I wouldn’t allow that to be there.”

I'm buying her campaign's response. This looks to me like the scumbag Democrat media is trying to smear Bachmann. It is sad that so many here appear to be falling for it. On the other hand, she needs to be a lot more careful in her phrasing because she should fully understand by now that the scumbags are out to smear each and every Republican candidate. Give them nothing they can twist or spin - - make them resort to their fallback position of outright lying.

She was agreeing with the actions taken by the British to secure their embassy personnel and was speaking in the hypothetical, that if she was President of the United States and if we had an embassy in Iran, she would have taken the same actions as the British

HUH? The 'explanation' was worse than the gaffe! Just sad.

Obviously, she misspoke. I really don’t see the big deal.

She was on Mark Levin’s show and said that she got it right 2 (or 3) times, but NBC deliberately only recorded the time she misspoke.

I’m paraphrasing, so check it out for yourself by listening to the Thursday show on MarkLevinShow.com.

” It’s disgusting that people will take the mainstream media’s word for it as long as it helps their candidate.”

Some Republicans are their own worst enemies and actually help the leftist media seem half-way credible.

If they want to help their own candidate(s) fine. But when they join in with the leftist media, it’s downright shameful.

Ok. Doesn’t really matter to me whether she said it. Just musing.

Good Lord, It's much worse than we thought.

"For two days days I was talking about this issue with the British Embassy, I sit on the Intelligence Committee. Three different times in front of this MSNBC reporter I talked about the British Embassy, and I talked about how, if I was the United States president, there would never be a US Embassy, and I said there isn't one now, and nor would there ever be because there is state-sponsored terror. This MSNBC reporter heard me say that THREE times." ~Michele Bachmann

She didn't even misspeak. The braindead MSM had an agenda and cherry-picked. And now they refuse to retract their blatant misrepresentation. Wow, I'm flabbergasted.

If you read the article she did not say she would close our embassy in Iran.

She stated she would never have one there.

Someone trying to twist her words is dispicable, but par for the course anymore.

The article went on to clarify it, not that it matters to the people trying to drag conservatives down.

Look through the posts. People that call themselves conservatives didn’t even bother to read the article.

They just posted hate and believed the MSM.

Sad really.

No wonder the MSM has been successful in choosing candidates... People need to learn not to believe the MSM, even if it’s about a candidate who’s not their candidate.

THANK YOU for posting that. Do you have a link? I was searching for a link on the story last night, but couldn’t find any decent article.

The Obama network NBC is as devious as can be.
