Bachmann is such a simpleton

So her first "answer" at the debate has nothing to do with the question, and she uses her time to announce she's running for president.

Ummm... Okay... Given that you are standing at a podium at a debate among candidates for president, then was this announcement supposed to be a shocker?

3. The question was on the AUTO bailout, and that moron went into
this huge spiel about TARP!! :rofl:

You could actually see the other candidates doing their best to stifle their laughter over her absolute misunderstanding!

5. Did I hear her right?
In an answer to the "Don't Ask Don't Tell Repeal Repeal", she said something like "If I were President I would consult with the chiefs of staff and the joint chiefs about that issue blah blah"

isn't she the only chief of staff if she is President?

6. She said she would consult with "the commanders in chief"

I also liked her saying she wouldn't interfere with state marriage laws, but would want a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.

She got it right. That's what she calls them.

10. That subject line will probably be her campaign slogan
The stupider a candidate is, the more Republican voters seem to like them.
