It may not be a joke to her.
Perry looked like a fifth-grader sitting in an eleventh-grade algebra class, praying he wouldn’t be called to the board to demonstrate completing the square. It’s amazing that even with Romney’s glass jaw, none of these knuckleheads can land a glove on him.
Actually, I think the 666 bit was pretty clever. Yeah, it might sound crazy to us, but then, we’re not exactly her target audience. I expect that that’s exactly the sort of zinger that would resonate with the kind of person who’s debating between Bachmann and Cain for President.
Here’s why I give her a little slack on the thing…
When she started in with the ‘turn it upside down’ bit, I was thinking … here we go – she 's heading off into Jesus Land and there may be no coming back this time. Instead she continued and actually made a funny about it (not terribly funny, granted, but at least a normal kind of quip about it).
Here’s the thing … there are a plethora, nay a multitude of things we can point and laugh at Michelle Bachmann about … but this? Really? The only thing lamer than the joke is beating her up over it.
Well we already knew she was dumb and crazy, and then she tries to make ha-ha and fails at that too. “Durr, devil’s in the detail. It’s funny cos a 6 looks like a 9 upside down and 6 is Satan’s number. Lol, Hyuck hyuck!” Wow, Michele, you are literally bad at everything. Go back to saying claiming you can fix the economy in 90 days.
Okie-dokie. Far be it from me to pick these kind of nits, but shit, you may as well criticize her shoes while your at it.
They were pretty terrible shoes.
I think the 666 thing is the closest Bachmann has ever been to intentionally funny. The problem is the Poe’s Law issue that pops up every time Bachmann opens her mouth. You can’t REALLY guarantee that she’s ever joking.
So anyway, I’m actually a little surprised by the Repubs calling Cain out on how absurd his “Price of Pizza” plan is, although some for different reasons. Bachmann and crew labeled it more taxes for the bad and scary government, but Huntsman pretty much openly mocked it as not implementable and impractical. It is, but confessing that doesn’t align with strong-right Teabaggery very well. Romney also dismissed it as being catchy, but ultimately too simplistic to actually solve economic problems. Very good. They’re talking like they actually want to win an election here instead of scoring Teabagger brownie points.
Or use of the term “rightards” in a recent thread. Glass houses, and all that.
Holy shit! Am I on national TV? Am I trying to convince millions of people that I should be taken seriously for the office of the POTUS?
WHY DIDN’T ANYONE TELL ME?!?!?!
Like Crazy Eyes Michelle, your attempt at wit was also a miserable failure.

That’s 06 days, isn’t it?
Wati, Michelle Bachman said “No Bitch, No Bama” on national TV?
Did she? You might want to back that up with a cite.
-Joe
You want me to cite a question?
You said your using rightard was different then Michelle using democRATS and “No Bitch, No Bama” to amuse people because Bachmann was on national TV. I’m asking when she did that.
If you can find anywhere above where I put “Michele Bachmann said”, you’re packing more magic than a leprechaun.
-Joe
I wonder if ze Germans are amused when the “Nein! Nein! Nein!” program gets turned upside down and becomes the “Sechs! Sechs! Sechs!” program.
Maybe if Bachmann wasn’t busy pandering to the fundie base she could have come up with this actually humorous quip.
