I love this woman
Quote:
REP. MICHELE BACHMANN (R-Minn.) used to work as a lawyer for the Internal Revenue Service.

“I went to work in that system because the first rule of war is ‘know your enemy,’ ” Ms. Bachmann told a crowd in South Carolina on Thursday.

She is spinning. from your link...

Quote:
this was a change from the explanation that Ms. Bachmann normally offers for her résumé. In the past, she has said that her four years as an attorney representing the IRS gave her insights into the tax code and why it must be reformed. The notion that from the start she was infiltrating a system she considered to be “the enemy” seems to be a new spin.
and..

Quote:
We find it disturbing that someone seeking to lead this country and become its government’s CEO would view any of its agencies as the enemy and government service as honorable only if it takes the form of undercover opposition.
finally...

Quote:
And anyone who has lived or worked overseas knows that the United States is fortunate in its tax collector. The IRS may make mistakes, and its employees may not always be as polite as they should be. But on balance it is honest, apolitical and efficient. According to IRS data, the agency spends just 53 cents for every $100 it collects.
Ms. Bachmann is trying to get your vote for which she'll probably say anything. Lap it up or think about it, it's your choice.

Well, thank God your boy, barry, didn't do that. You guys are too smart to vote for someone because he was a cool Mulatto dude with some great written lines and dental work. Yup, you're too smart to vote for someone who told you the lies you wanted to hear.

It is relevant since the topic spun to spinning and not CRAZY

Liberals have made it impossible to compromise AFAIC...

It is straight down party lines from now on. If he/she has a (D), it is not for me.

Default Crazy Bachmann is at "War" with the IRS and only worked there to infiltrate them

Unfortunately, Bachmann's flame is quickly fading. I SO wanted to vote for her in the GOP primary. And against her in the general.
