2. O M G!

3. Bachmann should reimburse the US Government half the salary

because she's been AWOL for her paid job of representing the people of her district while she's been running for President.

[Scuba]

21. Marcus should also reimburse the government - he received payments for his pray-the-gay-away crap.

[orpupilofnature57]

4. We used it to baliout Shrubs " power base " MORON

[1monster]

5. I sure hope Iraq doesn't. That's one hell of a payback they owe us.

Upwards of a million killed; God only knows how many maimed. The destruction of their infrastructures, economic, social, roads, water, electric,and any other they had. Diplacement and family breakups.

And the list goes on and on.

If Michelle Bachman had any brain power at all, she would be on her knees praying to whatever power she believes in that the Iraqi people don't repay us in any kind at all.

6. they partially reimbursed Bush

[earthbone]

7. Nitwit !

Let me guess,we will have to invade them again to get them to pay up.Then we demand they pay for that too ?

[Swede Atlanta]

8. They did not invite us..........

She thinks somehow this is like a contract..."The U.S. will invade and eliminate the evil Saddam Hussein and in exchange Iraq will reimburse America for all its expenditures and $1M for every soldier, airman, sailor or marine that is injured or killed in execution of its obligations."

As an attorney she should know there was no mutual assent and therefore no agreement. This was an INVASION by the U.S. based on Cheneyed up evidence that never existed to further the interests of Halliburton and its ilk.

I suggest Halliburton, Blackwater and the companies that benefitted from our invasion of a sovereign nation repay the U.S. government for its crimes.

9. Wonder how much the Honorable Michelle Bachmann thinks Iraq should reimburse the U.S. for each Iraqi

killed; severely wounded; made homeless; made jobless; orphaned; or otherwise injured or brutalized? Hopefully she has a hard figure in mind for each category. :patriot:

[jwirr]

10. Or send us a bill for their destroyed country.

[bulloney]

11. My gawd! Can they get any dumber and dense than Bachmann?

And to think there were thousands who voted for this idiot to represent them in Congress.

This past spring, our congressional district's Republican party had her as the keynote speaker at their annual meeting. I thought you should have brains before someone considers you for speaking engagements.

[PatrynXX]

12. That woman..... is an idiot

does she ever think before she acts? Nope. I'd say we are leaving Iraq because it was a mistake to go in there in the first place. Pretty much destroyed Iraq, no wonder Iraq doesn't want immunity for any American Soldier staying behind at the start of the year. We ended up worse than Saddam. Remind me when we liberated Iraq? Oh wait we didn't. We Occupied Iraq. Hence the shoe thrown at Bush.

13. Boy! Did that bat pinch a load or what?

[jtuck004]

14. She is a fool if she doesn't embrace a career in stand-up comedy.

Crazy ideas and mad eyes that make Charles Manson look like a boy scout - it's a match made in heaven.

[Plucketeer]

15. We need to find out

who "liberated" her brain (assuming she ever had one), and make them PAY for all the STUPIDITY this idiot's subjected us to!

[Jack Rabbit]

16. Frankly, I think we should reimburse Iraq for what we did to "liberate" them

Just my 2¢.

[Muskypundit]

17. Bachman should liberate her head from her ass.

[ScottLand]

18. Note to Bachmann: If you come to my house, kill half my family,

and blow the place up, don't expect reimbursement.

[Douglas Carpenter]

19. maybe she's being sarcastic?

And has no way of inserting a :sarcasm: icon to let people know?

Otherwise I would have to conclude that this tax lawyer and member of Congress is a blittering idiot. Nah, that's just isn't possible. She must just be pulling people's leg and some us just lack a sense of humor. :think:

[Sam Hain]

20. I'm one-fourth Cherokee

I guess I should start saving pennys for when I get my "liberation" bill. :puke:
