[b]Source:[/b] [url=http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2011/08/memento-starring-michele-bachmann/41443/]Linkage[/url] [quote]It's funny when Michele Bachmann confuses John Wayne with John Wayne Gacy, or Elvis' birthday with the anniversary of his death. But while Bachmann's struggles with American history are amusing, her trouble nailing down the details of her own biography is a bit more disconcerting. Mother Jones' Tim Murphy reports that for years the Republican presidential candidate referred to herself as "Dr. Michele Bachmann." The problem? She's not a doctor. And that's not the only detail from her past that Bachmann has -- to put it charitably -- trouble remembering. It seems, at least, that some of the things Bachmann tells people about herself conflict with what reporters have found when fact-checking the statements. Not a Doctor Murphy reports, "Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when Bachmann traveled [Minnesota] as an education activist, she went by 'Dr. Michele Bachmann,' even though she had never obtained nor sought the advanced degree that's a prerequisite for the title." Guinea Pig Kids, her 2002 movie opposing a state education law, identifies her as "Dr. Michele Bachmann." Bachmann worked with the activist group Maple River Education Coalition, which put out a news release celebrating her nomination as a Republican candidate for the state legislature in 2000 that said, "Dr. Bachmann herself, who arrived at her convention with no intention of running, was shocked by her victory."[/quote] What is she the next Sarah Palin?

Each time I read a thread about American politicians or politics, I wonder how the country is still running.

Nobody wants her to win other than the ultra religious who share her views on gay marriage, and there's no way in hell she'd ever get the nomination with all this stuff coming out and with the way she handles herself in interviews. All this overreacting is wasted energy.
It baffles me how people think that she is able to run one of the most powerful countries on this planet.
It's a damn good thing that the president isn't king of the country or we'd be fucked even more
All dumb soccermom jokes aside, I'm starting to wonder if there's actually something wrong with her. Couldn't the consistent lying, memory-loss, migraines and hate for everything that isn't herself be caused by some kind of illness?
Doctor Phil comes to mind.
[QUOTE=MikeHenderso;31838641]Doctor Phil comes to mind.[/QUOTE] Phil McGraw has a doctorate in clinical psychology.

Personally I don't want to vote for any of them. But how does one get away with calling them self a doctor?
[QUOTE=CunningHam;31839294]Uh that's illegal isn't it? Rating myself optimistic [editline]20th August 2011[/editline] fuck[/QUOTE]I'll get that for you
what. So, any sane or intelligent Republican nominees? I mean, if this is their best, they might as well not hold an election for 2012.
Well, we know that even if she does lose the election, she'll still refer to herself as President Bachmann.

I mean, he had this whole speech referring to how gay marriage isn't marriage, regardless if you refer to it as marriage. He compared it to as calling a paper towel a napkin.

Sorry about that guys, actual link is up
Somebody needs to make a megathread for all the 2012 candidates with their worst characteristics and what they've done. Theres so much I can't even keep up.
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;31838378]I'm going to refer to myself as senator Smug Bastard from now on.[/QUOTE] I approve of this. I am President J!NX, ordering the execution of Michele Bachmann so that I can resign and party afterwards.

Unless she chokes, of course.
