As WastedYears said, it's a two inch grouping at 1,000 yards, but by signing a statement with that type of language in it, Michele Bachmann reveals a dreadful lack of political savvy.
She just gave the left a bludgeon to whack her over the head with.
Ah so it’s not about principle but making sure you do nothing the MSM can smear you with. If this derails Bachmann (and Santorum who also signed it) then so be it.
I can't believe anyone thinks this is avoidable. The left accused Sarah Palin of a conspiracy involving her daughter and son. They will make stuff up. Trying to please them will lose far more votes from the right than any candidate will ever pick up from the left.
“Michele Bachmann reveals a dreadful lack of political savvy.”
Bill Clinton displayed political saavy.
You want him back?
I would guess that Obama has as much or more savvy than Bachmann. The point being that political savvy can be a disguise for honesty and forthrightness in many politicians. Today the USA is in dire need for integrity from the politicians. Many and Obama above all fail in this need.
