The difference between Palin and Bachmann:

[11 Bravo]

Yeah, they are both crazier than a shithouse rat, but Palin is also a fucking imbecile. Bachmann is not. Palin speaks in a mish-mash of non-sequiturs and made up words. Bachmann at least sounds like she is speaking her native language. Palin uses her family as props (especially that poor little Trig). I don't even know what Bachmann's husband and kids look like. Palin is a mean-spirited, narcissistic sociopath. Bachmann is just a whack-job and a zealot.
At the end of the day, however, neither one of them is qualified to manage a lemonade stand, let alone a nation.

1. You're right, which is what makes Bachmann scarier than Palin

She probably makes sense to a lot of people because her sentences make sense, even though what she's saying is pure nonsense.

2. Watching the NH debate right now.

There are no contenders on the stage. Any serious contender will wait until they don't have to run against Obama. Maybe it's just my prejudice, but they all look like losers to me.

3. I'm a little curious about Bachmann's family.

Does she have 23 foster children right now? How does she juggle caring for that many children with a career, let alone a race for the presidency?

I just heard her mention it tonight... I don't know the children's ages or if she has "help". Wonder if she gets a stipend from the state for those children's care? Maybe someone can enlighten me.

9. They took in teens

although she likes to say she raised 23 foster children. How long each was there I don't know. They are not there now. They would have gotten state money for them.

13. Great site about Bachmann

and her family (including hubby Dr. Marcus, who can de-gay the gays), political career, campaigns, ties to equally crazy and extreme people, issues...from 2004 to whatever is happening today.

4. You're right

That one of the best explanations of their differences I've heard yet. One's a psychopathic entertainer and the other is a circus geek who likes to bite heads off chickens.

Good one.

5. Isn't Backmann the one who ran and hid

from "teh gays"? It was either a set of photos or a video, can't remember but she sure looked really stooooopid crouching down behind that bush. I will look and see, I am pretty certain it was her.

EDIT to add: Here is the first link that came up, it also shows that gaggy kiss she gave Bush** http://www.minnpost.com/bloisolson/2008/10/21/3976/michele_bachmanns_memorable_moments

7. Bachmann mentions her 23 foster children constantly

She worked them into many of her answers in the debate tonight. She also said that as president she would consult with the commander-in-chief about don't ask, don't tell. Sounds like a Palin comment!

8. It's dumb&crazy vs. crazy&dumb as someone posted the other day.

[Raine]

10. They're both IDIOTS BUT Bachman gives the impression she has some

smarts, even comes off as semi-coherant so it "appears" that's she not a complete morAn but that makes her more dangerous.

11. K&R #1 for WELL SAID. Who knows what the 'murican people will VOTE for!1 n/t

12. Is like the difference between pancreatic cancer and congestive heart failure,
