Michele Bachmann: Sarah Palin 2.0?

Bachmann is going to a "strong voice"? For what -- stupidity, ignorance, intolerance, or the virtue of pathological lying? This delusional, fascist, megalomaniac nitwit should do Minnesota and the country a favor by sitting down and shutting up for good!

How does Bachmann explain her claim that God told her to run for President? Why has he forsaken her? Is she just a liar or seriously delusional? What a joke. She also believes Marcus is "straight".
Has anyone seen Pat Robertson's video where he said that God had spoken to him and told him who the next President would be (it's a secret between them). And more (as if from the mouth of God), “Your country will be torn apart by internal stress. A house divided cannot stand. Your president holds a radical view"...blah, blah, blah. This is the person (Robertson) who told one of his disciples to divorce his Alheimer-stricken wife. Maybe he was Gingrich spiritual advisor as well.
I know expressing my skepticism has no effect. I am either preaching to the choir, or concreting religious radicals' belief that anyone who disagrees with the likes of Robertson is a Godless heathen.
God help the United States of America!

We must draft, nominate and elect Sarah Palin president in the most crushing tidal wave of enthusiastic good judgment ever seen in the history of this nation. With that one bold move we will accomplish the dual goals of seeing America led by the greatest natural born leader in our generation, even as we witness the final implosion and last agonized shrieks of our endlessly lying extreme left loonies. Their entire movement, from the fabricated attacks on Bush beginning with ‘Blood For Oil’ to the crammed-down-our-gullets lies of Obamacare and the Shovel Ready Stimulus, have been nothing but one vile deceit heaped upon another. Such an absolute inability to deal in the truth or to face the facts of our situation and its solutions only proves that there is simply no place at the grown-ups’ table for these diseased sputa. Good riddance to rubes and bad rubbish. Time to usher in the American Renaissance, carried in on the invigoratingly freshening breeze of President Sarah Palin.

Bachmann came in as Palin 2.0 (because that type fan got antsy), but now she's more like O'Donnell - at this point, Bachmann still may not know when to quit, but public opinion (e.g. no responses from anyone except locals) will eventually sink in. I don't know why Bachmann got elected in the first place (looks, backing farm subsidy, ???) , so that support base may hang on for a while (as did O'Donnell's), but when someone Peters out by losing big after running for president, that's usually the end for them. Bachmann, Palin, and O'Donnell - they were a fad.
