man Michele Bachmann says she will not run for re-election in 2014

I think he was referring to Palin and Bachman. He could have tossed in Pelosi and Boxer to find balance.

So, that doesn't make him wrong, it just makes him selective. I'm not sure how The Big Gulp Menace got in here (I confess I only read the last 2 pages). But if you're looking for anti-anti big gulp support, I'm in.

Quite possibly I'm overreacting after long day but calling politicians 'stupid' for no real reason becomes tiresome after a while. Both of these women mentioned earlier are highly successful, as well as intelligent, and have led lives which should serve as an inspiration for everyone, particularly women. Instead they, as well as their families, have been publicly insulted and ridiculed by those who are far less bright and have done much less with their lives.

I'm not insulting you personally, I'm using you as an example of a typical democrat and the way they present their political arguments.

Although you're more familiar with the term "Butt Ass Stupid" than I am, the word Butt makes Ass redundant, doesn't it? The next time you hear it you might want to mention this.

Why of course you weren't insulting me personally....... It is just finding a loophole of insulting one here by using the term I am insulting your group not you.

The "Pant's on Fire" designation at Politifact will stay in the dugout for longer now.:lol:

Then again, she is actually more free to lie in the private sector.
 
Regardless of what we call them, they will laugh all the way to the bank.

I'm pretty educated and I doubt that Obama is a legitimate US citizen.

Most Republicans don't buy it. Unfortunately, it is usually the loud ones who do.

Uh-huh. Notwithstanding what Barack Obama wants his lemmings to believe.

Oh you mean the American people who elected him twice? Must really suck having heroes like Palin and Bachmann.

No, I mean all the silly moderates who abandoned their reasons for turning Congress over to the Republicans in 2010. You lefties are crafty devils, but real Americans see right through ya! ;)

What "really sucks" is that most politicians (particularly on the Left) are bald face liars.

We can agree that most politicians are liars. Afterall, they are mostly lawyers. Your comment about lefties is telling.

Obama didn't beat either of them,Bachmann never ran against Obama.....Palin wasn't the main person on the ballot in 2008,McCain was.

Actually, he did as they all ran for a spot in the oval office. :shrug:

Well no,Bachmann ran in a REPUBLICAN nominating process and was defeated by other REPUBLICANS....Not by Obama.

Palin was NOT the Republican Presidential nominee in 2008,McCain was.

I'm not trying to stick up for either,but facts are facts.

2 elections later and Obama beat both of them. So much for intellectual giants.

which is why Bush is so much smarter than Gore and Kerry
 
Grant said:
Michelle Bachmann and Sarah Palin are intellectual giants compared to Obama or Biden. In fact either of them are miles ahead of any leftist I've seen on these boards, if their juvenile comments are anything to go by.

Dude I don't know what you're smoking but I want one.

If you're so educated how could you believe such stupidity and "pretty" is a poor adjective to use instead of very. My guess is you're not very educated at all. High school at most.

I think Kerry and Gore had personality issues rather than intelligence, what with being the two most boring people on the planet and all.

Yeah, and at least we'd all be entertained by the over the top gaffs while we go down the crapper.

It was a simple reminder of how ****ed up that election was and its Chinese Fire Drill outcome.
