As one of the Orcs in Lord of the Rings said:
"What d'you say? - if we get a chance, you and me'll slip off and set up somewhere on our own with a few trusty lads, somewhere where there's good loot nice and handy, and no big bosses."
Look at the debate, where Bachmann brought up the Gardasil.
Like the addled cretin he is, he tried to refute this by BRAGGING -- my God, BRAGGING -- about how much OTHER money he had in contributions. In other words, a bribe of $6000 for Gardasil is scarcely worth stooping to pick up: even if it isn't really *called* a bribe, it's still typical K-Street Pay-to-Play.
That torpedo over Gardasil, and the later one over the illegal aliens, are going to do serious damage to him.
The more so as he kept on trying to waggle his head in what he *thought* was a Reaganesque way, but instead of saying, "Well, there you go again..." it came out resembling "That's how WE do it in TEXAS, Boy-uh."
After all the Harvard arrogance of Teh One, people aren't going to go for Texan arrogance instead just because he's doing it "all by himself" without a teleprompter.
Cheers!
