Yes, she does. I want to like her. She's obviously bright and articulate and clearly a leader by nature. But just when I warm up to her, she comes out with what to me is a clear distortion and twisting of facts to make a political point. Ugh....

Your cheapshot at Sarah Palin is ridiculous and revealing. She is brilliant, eloquent and much more adept at communicating than any of those who take cheap shots at her.

...Bachmann's got to do a better job of getting her facts straight.

The Wrong John Wayne

Rep. Michele Bachmann kicked off her presidential campaign on Monday in Waterloo, Iowa, and in one interview surrounding the official event she promised to mimic the spirit of Waterloo's own John Wayne.

The only problem, as one eagle-eyed reader notes: Waterloo's John Wayne was not the beloved movie star, but rather John Wayne Gacy, the serial killer.

Mrs. Bachmann grew up in Waterloo, and used the town as the backdrop for her campaign announcement, where she told Fox News: "Well what I want them to know is just like, John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa. That's the kind of spirit that I have, too."
