A blight on the MN landscape

[mrissa]

With just two more weeks to go, Rep. Michele Bachmann wants us all to know that we are being really mean to her and totally misconstrued her remarks about searching for anti-Americanism in the Senate. She didn't mean witch hunt! She meant "which hunt?", like, duck hunt or deer hunt or bear hunt? Maybe pheasant hunt? She didn't know, but she was curious. Also, she meant McCarthyism as in, like, Wally McCarthyism. That's where she bought her car. He gave her a good deal. She wanted America to know. (This is Minnesota, though, so she totally doesn't want to offend the Rudy Lutheran vote.)

Lordy. There was a cute baby tapir picture around here somewhere, right? Only two weeks. Only two weeks.

my sister, monstersocks, was very pleased to hear that the piercer used a tapir to put my earrings back in after surgery.

I, too, am pleased. Tapirs are nice. I would think they'd be kind of snuffly for earring work, though.

Sounds like some loose un-American talk from Mris!


*calls the Senate to report this entry*

How can you say that when I am defending poor Rep. Bachmann from the people who are being so mean to her?

You're saying you're an anti-Communist? Hey, I don't care what flavor of Communist you are...

And who is with Batman every time we see him in the newspaper? Criminals!

Personally, I want to send Michelle Bachman flowers. She clearly was personally responsible for her opponent raising over $600,000 in three days. It seems likely that she was also personally responsible for Colin Powell's endorsement of Obama.

That makes her my ally, whether she means to be or not.

The Bachmann family runs a line of florists and yard/garden centers, so maybe chocolate would be more the thing?

The sad part (well, one of the sad parts) is that she needed to go on national tv for everyone in the country to be embarrassed by her. Why weren't the local papers all over her from the beginning? The conservative news media just doesn't practice journalism. Neither does Matthews, but at least he got an idiot to feel comfortable enough to act like an idiot...

It almost makes me wish I lived in her district, so I could vote against her, and for Elwyn Glenn Tinklenberg, who has the most awesomely silly name of a politician I've ever heard.

This tapir (http://www.billybear4kids.com/animal/whose-toes/Tapir1Yawn.jpg) shares your frustration, while this tapir (http://mervinlow.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/tapir7-03w.jpg) is making a juvenile fashion statement. These tapirs (http://atrium.tapirs.org/) are for diversity.

Since you have Google Image search, too, I'll stop there.

Very kind of you anyway.

This political season has me counting a great deal - as in counting to ten. The mute button has been a penultimate friend during commercial of favorite shows. The ads politic are very loud and repetitive and full of bile & bits of spleen on both sides. AARRRGGGGHHHH!!!! This whole voting cycle is getting up my nose.

This video (http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/500dbb2fb6) made me laugh and laugh about the attack ads. It helps when they come on TV. What helps even more is watching DVDs, though.

I am wrong; that was a different Bachmann family. Send away.
