Her hard-line stance was just one on display last night. Asked if they would accept a deal to cut the federal deficit that included tax increases even by a 10:1 ratio all eight candidates on stage said they would not sign such a bill into law.
One of many reasons why no one in the GOP is fit to be president.
Bachmann's statements on the debt ceiling come off either as stunningly uninformed about the issue, or deliberately misleading. Either way, this line of attack will only weaken her campaign with mainstream and business voters.
Not only Bachmann but her supporters as well.
I can't figure out why I'm not used to it yet. Every day, they say completely insane things. She's come undone. And every day, I cannot believe my ears. I need to be jaded!
Also, why all the love & kisses for 43 while he was racking up unprecedented debt, not a whit to do w/ investments either

Michelle Bachmann Is The Reason The US Lost Its AAA Rating
S&P senior director Joydeep Mukherji told POLITICO's Josh Boak Thursday that the downgrade was partially predicated on the fact that people in the political arena were even talking about a potential default."
That a country even has such voices, albeit a minority, is something notable, he added. This kind of rhetoric is not common amongst AAA sovereigns."
Bachmann voted against every plan offered to raise the debt limit, and said she would only consider raising it if it also repealed President Barack Obama's signature achievement health care reform.

You liberals look to blame everyone but yourselves.
You are the cause of this financial catastrophe with your reckless spending and social programs mean to "help" people.
You should be ashamed of yourself trying to blame a true American for the downgrade.

Not that it cannot, but that it might choose not to, as was so evident during the debates about the debt ceiling.

Somebody refresh my memory: How much of Obama's "NEW" debt was actually GWB's "off the record" wars?
Seriously? They didn't know that he was telling the passengers what would happen if the Republicans and Tea Partiers refused to veer course from the iceberg? Derp!
But, but, but I thought Obama and all you loons said S&P was stupid, but now all of a sudden their word is golden and true?Seriously? They didn't know that he was telling the passengers what would happen if the Republicans and Tea Partiers refused to veer course from the iceberg? Derp!
