Micxhele Bachmann: ANWR perfect place to drill because it's dark all the time
I guess it's ok to despoil the environment as long as you can't see it. Bachmann also claims there are no trees in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, so why not drill.

It's just one string of bullshit after another from this woman:

14. Quite good, actually.
At our July meeting in St. Cloud, the representative from the Tinklenberg campaign indicated that the polling results for "independent" voters (Leaning Democrat, Undecided, Leaning Republican) was trending about 70% toward Tinklenberg, IIRC.

2. Not to mention the simple math:
We consume 7 billion barrels of oil a year. ANWR has between 2.5 and 15 billion barrels.

So we are going to ruin a pristine area to provide enough oil for 2 months to 2 years.

But, hey, Republicans do not like to be bothered by facts.

4. Listen to Bachmann on CNN - "It's important to know that there are no trees in ANWR"

12. I know! Suggest that Michele Bachmann be the first astronaut to land on the sun
When she asks whether that isn't dangerous, assure that it will be okay if she goes at night. :-)

(Sorry for resurrecting an old joke...)
