what I think



I mean, she's kind of pretty and stuff. In a sort of quiet, nerdy way. Not my usual, but nice...


update: speaking of red meat, though, this is serious business. Conservatives love her. I subscribe to a very conservative press release/newsletter just to keep my eye on the loonies and none other than the Very Terrifying Richard Viguerie declared her a great addition to the candidacy. And I quote, "She's perfect."

Dude. When Richard "George Bush Hijacked the Conservatives" Viguerie says you're perfect, you are one. scary. motherfucker.

I think that Michelle Bachman's defining characteristic is the insanity.

I don't know much about Sarah Palin yet, but I'm curious which parts of her policy or ideology you are comparing.

I'm asking - "Is she nuts, too?"

Creation science should be taught in public schools, alongside evolution.

Drill now she says. suing the federal government over the "threatened" status of polar bears (http://raisingkaine.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=15616) (her part starts at 4:30).

Against a woman's right to choose. Her "credentials" on this point? Not aborting her down syndrome baby, Trig. (lady, we don't give a shit if you want to keep your baby, regardless of condition. that political hay has been made of this fact? nuts)

Vindictive with a capital V: tried to get someone in her cabinet to fire her ex-brother-in-law from being a state trooper (to get leverage in the custody battle). And when the person she directed to do it refused? fired that cabinet member (http://raisingkaine.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=15616).

Crazy meter starting to spike yet?

Oh, and apparently introduced a wolf bounty. I don't know what their wolf situation is there, so I'm ambivalent about that.

But she wants hunters to be able to shoot them from helicopters

Yep!
