We could potentially have Bachmann, Palin and O'Donnell all running in 2012!

Of course, this would be bad news for comedy writers. They would all be out of a job, as the jokes would write themselves.

 

[Crossbow]

Wow!

With Bachman, O'Donnell, and Palin all running in 2012 it makes me think of that old Rick Springfield song Bop Till You Drop!.

 

[Cleon]

w00t! Bachmann/Palin Overdrive would be comedy gold.

 

[Spindrift]

I hope she does run just for the entertainment value. She has no chance of winning the nomination, even I don't think the Republicans are that insane.

 

[Alferd_Packer]

Isn't there some video floating around of Bachmann hiding behind some bushes spying on a gay pride event?

I'm sure if she runs that will be all over the place.

 

[Alferd_Packer]

Actually, I read somewhere that her real agenda is to run for Senate against Amy Klobuchar

See, if you scroll down that page just a little farther, you also see this:

Politics

• Tea bag protests, another name for the Tea Party protests
• Teabagger, a term for Tea Party movement participants

You complain about "Teabagger" but "Whacktard" is not worthy of comment?

 

[Alferd_Packer]

Didn't we have this discussion a couple weeks ago?

Both, really, but you just have to accept incivility around here, unfortunately.

No you can just refer to us as the elite. You guys seem to think that's an insult.

Your concern is noted. Someone will be getting back to you shortly.

Just out of curiosity, if someone (Michelle Bachmann, for example) is an idiot, what do you call them? "Idiot" seems appropriate to me.

 

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Yes. It was concluded that teabaggers used the term to describe themselves, because they were/are too stupid to know what it means.

Since we're into deja vu mode, let me continue in that vein:

"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win."

You seem to presume that just because someone is ridiculed that means they will eventually be victorious in their endeavors.

All due respect to the mahatma, but sometimes the ridiculed just end up being ridiculed.

 

[Fast Eddie B]

That was very close to the response in the prior thread.

Like I said, deja vu!

The Scientologists could use the same quote.

Sometimes people/movements are ridiculed because they are, in fact, worthy of ridicule.

Man up and learn how to take a joke. Actually its not a joke it's what the Tea Party called itself until it finally got the reference.

As for the OP - Please let them run! After all the gaffs they have made it will be the most obviously scripted campaigns of all time.
