Seven ways Rick Perry wants to change the Constitution

He really doesn't like America or what it was built on at all, does he? Why does he want to live here, much less be president, if he hates our freedoms and rights so much?

they need to understand that someone accomplishing something good for the country is not an impeachable offense

Presidential candidate Herman Cain said it would be “great” to impeach President Obama, saying yesterday that the administration’s position on the Defense of Marriage Act and support for the Affordable Care Act are impeachable offenses.

(Think Progress)

not even close to what he said

Criticizing billionaire Warren Buffett, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) said on the stump yesterday that “perhaps Mr. Buffett would like to give away his entire fortune above $200,000. That’s what you want to do? Have at it.” ABC News responds, “Bachmann’s own soundbyte is not entirely accurate. Buffett did not suggest no one could make more than $200,000.”

(Think Progress)
---
Does she really expect anyone to think that anyone is advocating the rich giving away all their money over $200,000.00? Just how stupid does she think the American public is? This is just absurd...

I don't think that word means what you think it means...

And finally: After wishing Elvis a happy birthday on his death day, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) corrected her gaffe yesterday, acknowledging his “passing” in South Carolina. She also played the song “Promised Land” and began dancing, saying, “Maybe we’ll turn it on at the end and do some shagging up here. If you want to shag a little bit, that’s what we’ll do.” Apparently the shag is a dance.

(Think Progress)

Though I know there are some perverted repugs who would probably want to "shag a little bit" with her...

Stewart becoming more and more conservative

(Huffington Post)

---

This seems like a story about nothing whatsoever. Yes, Bachmann is not the most photogenic politician but why is this a big deal? I honestly couldn't figure out the problem when I first saw the photo. This just looks like a hundred other photos of her.

I think Stewart is trying way too hard to be "fair and balanced".

blaming Obama for their own work

GOP candidates slam Obama on US credit downgrade
---

Of course everyone, including the S&P, knows that the downgrade is due to the repugs' refusal to let the US raise any revenue via taxes, but it is all Obama's fault.

Though, in a way, it is because he let the repugs get everything they wanted in the debt "negotiations", so it is his fault that he didn't insist on tax increases, which everyone in the world knows would help the situation.

a lot of us would welcome this

Nader: ‘Almost 100 percent’ chance of a Democratic primary challenger to Obama

I think that Obama went in with the best intentions - he certainly campaigned well and with high ideals - but he is not a good enough fighter for the reality that is the presidency.

Of course, I will still vote for him if he is the Democratic candidate - cuz gawd forbid one of the insane repugs get elected again - but it would sure be nice to have a strong liberal in office as opposed to this weak centrist (at best).
