    Default History Challanged Bachmann Cites Wrong John Wayne, Praises Notorious Serial Killer

    LMAO....

    First this woman illustrates her ignorance of American history by saying the founding fathers (who owned slaves) fought hard to eliminate slavery.

    Now this:


    Bachmann cites wrong John Wayne, praises notorious serial killer | Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has a thing for John Wayne. In an interview yesterday with Newsmax, she said she wants to live in “John Wayne’s America.” And in the Iowa town of Waterloo today, where she announced her presidential candidacy, Bachmann told Fox News, “John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa. That’s the kind of spirit that I have, too.” But unfortunately for historically challenged Bachmann, as the Washington Times points out, the John Wayne born in Waterloo is John Wayne Gacy, the notorious serial killer who murdered 33 teenage boys and young men, not the iconic Western actor. Watch it:

    http://thinkprogress.org/politics/20...ann-john-wayne






    The fact absolute retards like her can actually get to such a high office and somehow receive so much support from people is fascinating and infuriating at the same time. We waste space and time on fools like her rather than devout it to more important, intelligent people. Ron Paul, for instance.

    It gives me hope that since compared to her my own intelligence looks genius I may actually have a shot at politics.

    Ha, confusing Winterset,Iowa with Waterloo,Iowa! You have to be some kind of moron to get those two mixed up. That's almost as stupid as forgetting how many states there are in the union, or forgetting the name of the guy you presented with a medal of honour.

    They were mostly right. Bachmann's main issue is not her stupidity, but the fact that she could very well be clinically insane.

    And even if she had been right - John Wayne? Really? Like we are not already the laughing stock of the world with what the GOP is pushing out?

    How about she just lay out her plan in a clear and concise manner instead of pandering to not just the stupid - but exceedingly stupid...

    So I assume she stands absolutely no chance whatsoever of ever becoming POTUS? Why does nobody tell her this?

    For the same reason no one tells the people on talent shows, it’s funny to watch idiots, and you might as well let them have there 15 minutes. At a guess.

    It was a mistake, and not a difficult one. I'm no fan of Bachmann, but there's really nothing here.

    I'm more horrified that she home-schooled her kids.

    it is probably a mistake by one of her campaign staff members.....I interned one summer for a political figure and I wrote speeches for her a few times. Let's just say I made a couple mistakes as well in terms of research but not one as bad as this .

    Not her fault shes ignorant. She prob just did a quick google search couple hours before because she thought of this quickly one liner and wanted to use it. She took the first result that she saw and rolled with it. Shame she didnt invest more time in researching it. But this just proves she thinks about what to say so she sounds patriotic or in the know or well informed.

    Yeah prob a mistake by an intern, I bet it was, but that just proves shes doesnt really know what she says... she just repeats for publicity.

    Perhaps the teleprompter needs to go to foe-net-ick spelling.

    Yep pronunciation is the same thing as rewriting history BWB, good one there. Why stop there though talk about Obama pronunciation of Puerto Rico. It started as Puerto Rico and end as Porto Rico all in one speech in Puerto Rico.

    Nobody attacking Bachman pronunciation.

    alhoon is not a member of the infamous Hoons: a (fictional) nazi-sympathizer KKK clan. Of course, no Hoon would openly admit affiliation to the uninitiated.

    good for him, I frankly dont care. I dont even really care that he made a mistake, but its funny now that the republicans are the punching bag, half deserved mind you, everyone throws a punch. Though when people do it to Obama it is all of a sudden a no-no.

    Isn't it ironic how the Nobel Peace Institute was started by Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynomite? Or maybe it isn't ironic, seeing as how very few Nobel Peace Prize recipients actually do anything to propogate peace, and are instead given the award for being politically popular. If I recieved a Nobel Peace Prize, I would wipe my ass with it and give it back to the committee. I don't see how him being a recipient of such an award makes him any more qualified for any leadership position. Your statement is clearly an appeal to authority.

    Why is everyone turning this into a "well look at Obama" thread? Yeah, we get it, Obama is an idiot. That's not what this thread is about.

    This thread is about Michelle Bachmann being an idiot. No one's saying "SHE'S AN IDIOT SO VOTE FOR OBAMA" or anything. If anything, it's "Michelle Bachmann is an idiot and you're better off voting for someone who has the ability to do proper research before saying something to at least look smarter."
