Really, we do try to be non-partisan; we are just pro-environment and anti-jerk. But Michele Bachmann's hits just keep on coming, she is to quotes of the day what Michael Phelps is to Gold Medals. Here she describes her recent flight over the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) and how she found it to be just the most "perfect place on the planet to drill."

Is this woman on crack?
Just curious what the democrat's response was. Anyone know?
The people of her district deserve everything they're getting with Ms. Bachman. She is truly ridiculous.

Hmm. This one is not as outrageous as her previous doozies. She's basically reciting verbatim the RNC talking points.
Eewww... GROSS!!! She's absolutely disgusting looking in video. I only had pictures to go by before. Now she crazy, superstitious, and butt ugly. What a shame.
Well, if you were going to drill anywhere, why not in a place where the roads melt every summer.
"non-partisan"? I enjoy this site very much, but I think it's unfair to say you "try" to be non-partisan. Lets call the things what they are. Biased.
I am annoyed that no one is saying that the most definite impact of drilling in ANWR is the CO2 that will be released by the burning of the oil or gas thats extracted there. Same as drilling anywhere else.
You should start a "Bachmannism of the day" feature.
This woman would be hilarious if it wasn't for the fact she managed to get herself elected...
Obviously, Johnathan's version of "biased" is when you refuse to give the same respect to lies and stupidity as you do to facts and reason. Keep doing what you're doing, offer special praise when a conservative actually gets it right, but remember that in the 21st Century "conservation" doesn't seem to be very "conservative".
Size of a postage stamp on a football field?
What is she comparing the football field too?
Alaska?
USA?
Earth?
