Imagine what can happen if we gave her a 4 year term. Imagine further what can happen if we gave her 8 years. I'll bet we can get the sun to rise in the west.

At that rate in eight years the gas should be free!

And in twelve they will be paying us $2 a gallon to take it away!

And that is why I am voting for her. IT should be a thriving industry to take gas away.

Is she a simpleton, or does she merely take the electorate as a group of simpletons?

I saw that too. The only R candidate that does not look like a nut case to me so far is Ron Paul.

The RNC will run him out of town on a rail. Keep looking.

I think she does take the electorate as a group of simpletons. With good reason too. Look at the choices we told the Congress we wanted. We want it all and not have to pay for it. They delivered, we got pissed when the bill comes.

"Under President Bachmann you will see gasoline come down below $2 a gallon again," Bachmann told a crowd Tuesday in South Carolina. "That will happen."

Yeah, with the help of Jeebus, if he existed.

What I didn't hear is the "or else" part. I want to see what she will do if she fails to do it. And also I would like to hear more details. The devil, as they say, is in the details. If she does it like what Congress does, I agree it is achievable. OTOH, if she were to do it honestly by somehow making sure the Shale oil lowers the oil cost because they got the technology from a space faring race, maybe.

That does it. I'm removing my "We Blew It Hillary, Please Come Back" bumper sticker and getting a Bachman instead.
I like me some cheap gas. Ima vote for her plus she's real purty.

Relatively, yes.

Did she say how long gas would be under $2? Or how long it would be over $5?

Has she promised not to take campaign money from our big money overseers?

It is all about the money, keep your eye on the money.

The real issue is the lobbying, money, legalized bribery and whose best interests the representatives really represent. No change here and nothing else signicantly changes. This is a fundamental issue the underlies almost all of the rest.

"Honest Services" ruling in the supreme court says promises mean nothing. Read about "Honest Services". If it doesn't do something for you then just numb out on the couch.

I forget if that is a truth in advertising issue or what the law was that was overturned maybe in the early '80s. It is pretty good reading too.

She is purty and she knows her way around a corndog too.

She'll use the invisible hand -- of Jeebus.

All we have to do is redefine that pesky "gallon". Problem solved!

It would just be a more dramatic version of the more subtle "downsizing" we've been seeing for some food products.
