RealClearPolitics ^ | July 7, 2011 | RealClearPolitics

"As a decedent of generations of Iowans, I was born and raised in Waterloo. As a mom of five, a foster parent and a former tax lawyer and now a small business job creator, I know we can’t keep spending money that we don’t have," GOP presidential candidate Michele Bachmann (Minn.) says in his first advertisement.

"That's why I fought against the wasteful bailout, against the stimulus. I will not vote to increase the debt ceiling."

“I will not vote to increase the debt limit” is not the same promise as “I will vote against raising the debt limit”. One is a promise not to vote, the other is a promise to vote against it.

Unless she writes from beyond the grave, I think you mean descendant, not decedent. I hope the ad doesn’t have “decedent.”

The ad has it right. The transcriber doesn’t.

Now is the best time for the republicans to kick the liberals in the stones and keep doing so until they get it.
Stop spending and repeat.

Of course she won’t. She won’t even be there. She’ll be out campaigning.

Michele, do the job you are currently being paid for.

I hope she sticks to it. No increase in the debt ceiling. No deal, no way.

For a Congresswomen, that’s an easy answer. But as President, you don’t get a vote in congress. How would Presidential candidate Bachmann govern the country with a 30% budget shortfall? That’s the tough question a presidential candidate needs to answer.

Another Bachmann quote:
“First of all, the money that went to the clinic was actually training money for employees. The clinic did not get the money. And my husband and I did not get the money either. That’s mental health training money that went to employees.

Number two, regarding the farm, the farm is my father-in-law’s farm. It’s not my husband and my farm. It’s my father-in-law’s farm. And my husband and I have never gotten a penny of money from the farm.

Regarding the earmarks, I believe the right place to build projects is in the states and the states have to build roads and bridges. And I don’t apologize for building roads and bridges.”

Michele, do the job you are currently being paid for.

She's having a bigger impact on the campaign trail than she would in Washington speaking out on the issues, especially on the debt ceiling.

Those BDS are incapable of rationality.

Go get ‘em, Michele.

Let’s see what Bonehead, Cantor, McConnell, Alexander, and the rest of the Republican “leadership” do.

Unfortunately, while voting just fine as an individual, she has never displayed any leadership ability during her ten years in legislatures.

As a mom of five, a foster parent and a former tax lawyer she milked the state for 1.3 million for foster care and subsidies for the family farm ...not much different than a welfare queen making money from the system.
