funeral.
Which does give rise to question - why are we paying for Members of Congress to attend the funeral of a former prime minister?
Let's sit back and remember some of Bachmann's gems from her short-lived Presidential campaign:
http://www.startribune.com/politics/national/203029311.html
Bachmann often compared herself to Thatcher, the prime minister known as the "Iron Lady" because she stuck to strict conservative economic and political positions despite public opposition.
Days before the Iowa Republican caucuses in January 2012, Bachmann told crowds that: "We need another Margaret Thatcher, another Iron Lady."
Bachmann also ran campaign ads in Iowa calling herself "America's Iron Lady."
She's going to make Romney look like a diplomat.

(15,689 posts)If I were a Congressional Rep I'd volunteer for the funeral delegation. I'd be first to volunteer. I'd even request to be one of the mourners who trowels in dirt on the coffin. I'd ask for the biggest shovel they got, and I'd keep shoveling the dirt in until they tackled me.

We've made a special coffin that opens from the bottom so you will have easy access to the files. You, grab the files, and wait for our signal for us to get you out of there. Let's just hope there are no filibusters. Good Luck your country is counting on you. Go Get THEM!
