Ronald Reagan said “Trust but verify.” People say some strange stuff. Especially when trying to impress someone they are in awe of meeting.
Bachmann is getting loony. She thought that she was going to have a shot at the presidential nomination as she seemed to think that people looked to her as a TEA party leader. The TEA party might have people that speak up for TEA party values, but we need no leader.
I like Bachmann, I just don’t want her near the presidency. Same for Sarah Palin. She is outstanding in her current position of master gadfly and she has to answer to no one for what she says. If she announces for a presidential run, she don’s the shackles that that role represents.
