Yes, there is a worse picture of Michele Bachmann out there.
Yeah.

This one, courtesy of The Telegraph/Reuters.




Not sure if it's as bad as this other picture of her eating a corn dog or if it's worse.


And yes, I apologize for putting this picture up here, but my eyes are burning and I think it's only fair to share the pain.

5. MOST pictures of MB are worse. She should be happy with the Newsweek cover.
Hell, she should be happy to get half a para on p. 87.

11. That photo on the Newsweek cover looks just like her ...
I don't know what all the fuss was about.
Today when she was speaking at Ames her hair and facial expression reminded me of the Newsweek cover.

p.s. I am a woman, and I still don't understand 'what' people saw in that Newsweek photo that made them say it was sexist.

24. Her crazy eyes looked crazy. As Harry Truman once said about the Republicans, when
someone said, "Give them hell, Harry":
I just tell the truth on them and they think it's hell!

12. She used to be "happy" with a Iowa hot dog...
with some real Midwest nitrites in it, when she was a kid, according to "Bachmann the Movie" at the Straw Poll. Then she became a tax attorney with and advanced degree and got a government job. Gee, I thought government did not create any jobs?

After that, the boogie man of public welfare went away as she and Marcus began to rake in the Medicare money to run a clinic, collect State money for 23 foster children, and use it to charge for pray-away-the-gay counseling that anyone can get for free at their local church.

16. Evidently she's on her own.




If she had any reliable handlers they would have told her "let's not do this with so many cameras around".

22. She should have taken a small bite on the side or tore off a piece with her fingers.
Better yet she should have eaten something else.

I bet she has keepers now watching her.

27. Ha, that's funny because it looks like she's putting a giant phallus in her mouth! ROFLMAO
:sarcasm:

Seriously, there's plenty to poke fun about Bachmann without resorting to blatantly sexist humor.

32. I've said it before and I'll say it again. ANY politician eating a giant corn dog is funny.
It would be funny if President Obama was eating the corn dog. Or Debbie Wasserman-Shultz. Or Barney Frank. Or Margaret Thatcher.

It always cracks me up to see politicians scarfing down fair food so they'll look like "regular guys" to the electorate (in between counting their millions to see where they can get some filet mignon and Dom Perignon after the fair).

Michelle's Bible-thumping and talking about submitting to her husband just adds a layer to the funny on this picture.

I'm female ... and I just think the picture is damned funny. It's politics ... it's theater ... and funny sh*t happens at the fair!
