Michele Bachmann has formally launched her presidential run in her home state of Iowa but is there substance beneath the style?
Elvis Presley’s Promised Land belted out as Michele Bachman made her way to the podium in the little town of Waterloo in Iowa.
Appropriate, for her declaration was a vision of the lost country of a special people, that could be regained through faith and hard work. Inappropriate too, though. There were no hard promises to indicate how she’d get the milk and honey flowing again.
Four years ago they were fine with “Hope and Change” “Change” “Time for change” “America needs to change” “Yes we can” “Bush is bad, McCain is Bush, I’m not Bush”
I went to an Obama campaign speech in October, 2008 and left after 15 minutes of him repeating himself over and over again and saying absolutely nothing. It was the the most pointless speech I had ever heard.
there’s only one standard at the bbc nowadays and it’s “low”
Steve … you forgot “Yes We Can”.
I added it in, thanks.
Any time 😉
But he inherited all the problems from Bush!!!!!!

The harlots at the beeb, are still awaiting the second coming, they’re out to lunch – waiting for the real Obarmy to turn up.
Meantime, they love calling, ribbing and booing the Tea party/GOP – those damn redneck denier types in the States – if you don’t read the NYT in the eyes of the BBC – you don’t count.
