Good luck with that
Aug. 18th, 2011 09:20 amMichelle Bachmann says when (ha ha) she becomes President, she'll bring gas down to $2 a gallon.
Look, as much as I'd love the price of gas to come down, even with not owning a car, this is pretty much an empty statement. Despite what she thinks, the U.S. has very little direct control over gas prices.
But hey, she's Super-Bachmann. Able to leap tall tales in a single bound, able to jump from premise to conclusion without a thought in-between. Faster then a speeding hoveround! (ad nauseum)
Oh, and for the record, if anyone thinks I'm mocking her more because she's a woman, you're wrong. I'm mocking her more because there's so much there to mock. Between her and Sarah Palin, they have set the perceptions of women in the Republican party back years.
