Minn.'s Bachmann pushes Bush away
By MARTIGA LOHN, Associated Press Writer
Article Last Updated: 10/17/2008 11:01:15 AM CDT


ST. CLOUD, Minn.—Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann—who has never been shy when it comes to praising President George W. Bush—used a debate on Thursday to distance herself from the unpopular president.
Bachmann even tried to link her Democratic challenger, former state transportation chief Elwyn Tinklenberg, to the GOP president.

"He is more line with President Bush's policies than I am," said Bachmann, ticking off issues where she has disagreed with Bush, including the $700 billion financial services bailout. Bachmann voted against the bill twice. Tinklenberg has said he would have voted for it.

"I've been willing to be a strong reformer in Washington, D.C., and take on my own party, including the bailout," Bachmann said.

(Okay wait...WTF...Time out for a comment here, doesn't that last statement sound just like John McCain? If all the Republicans are supposed "Mavericks", then how the hell did we get ourselves into this mess? WAKE UP AMERICA!!)

Anyway more to my point here from this article....If she thinks Barack is supposed to be sooooooo dangerous etc...then why the fuck did she say this? Notice bold text.

____________

Bachmann said her positions have been "quite different" from Bush's."

"If the presidency would somehow go to Barack Obama, I would welcome him to the 6th District as well," she said after the debate. "As a matter of fact, I would put my hand on his shoulder and give him a kiss if he wanted to."

WTF????

Get her ass out of Congress!

Update: I guess she is just a "gold digger" who likes to kiss Presidents!!

3. "Take on my own party" is Sarah Palin's line.
I wonder if she knows this Bachmann creature has stolen it from her.

14. First she kisses some Bush, and then wants some Barack.
I wonder what her husband thinks of all this kissing other men.

He might be worried that once she goes Barack, she'll never go back.

:D
