Bachmann: It's Like a Little Bit of Bloomington in Baghdad!


A head this empty could out vacuum a Dyson:

This month, Bachmann traveled to Iraq, and despite more GOP defections from Bush’s base of support, she returned as firm as ever in her conviction that the war is justified. Al-Qaida, she said, “doesn’t show any signs of letting up.” The congressional delegation met with Gen. David Petraeus, the top commander in Iraq, in one of Saddam Hussein’s palaces.

What was the palace like?

“It’s absolutely huge,” she said. “I turned to my colleagues and said there’s a commonality with the Mall of America, in that it’s on that proportion. There’s marble everywhere. The other thing I remarked about was there is water everywhere. He had man-made lakes all around his personal palace — one for fishing, one for boating.”


Just be sure to keep an eye out for all those IED's near the food court...you know, I never really trusted the Orange Julius logo--always reminded me of the Underwood Deviled Ham guy.
