Bachmann will FIGHT Obama for $25, but if you want her to run for President, that'll cost ya $50.

Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Maple Street, keeps threatening to run for president. She is currently exploring the formation of an exploratory committee. Despite the fact that she has not yet made her decision, she is already fundraising, because she is only running for president to go on TV and raise money.

The founder of the House Tea Party Caucus sent an email to her supporter list asking them to take a poll about the 2012 race, but what she really wants is for them to vote with their wallets:

If you want me to continue fighting the big-government Obama agenda in the U.S. House of Representatives, please make a generous donation of $25. If you want me to seek the Presidency, please make a donation of $50 or even $100 to let me know I can count on you.

How much should one donate to help her decide to just go away forever, though? (I am guessing the answer is, "you couldn't afford it.")

2. She says she is praying to her god and he has not sent

his secret message to her yet whether he wants her to run for president or not........ decisions, decisions

Perhaps if one can not decide if they want to be president or not proves that they can not make the hard decisions that a president needs to make so they are disqualified already

4. "Michelle!" "Yes God." "This is GOD!" "I know God."

"You Know? HOW do you KNOW?"

"My Brain has Caller ID, God."

"Caller ID?" Yes and I have a special ring tone in my head, just for You! It Plays the first three words of 'God Bless America' and I know it's You!"

"What are the first 3 words?"

"God Bless America!"

"I DO. I do every day! "Jesus , Mary and Joseph!! You've almost GOT the best of everything! Can't you just smarten up? What more do you people want!???"

5. I might chip in the $50

Just think of the entertainment value! I love watching the GOP implode. Of course there's that grating voice. Whose is worse, Bachmann's or Palin's? :shrug:

7. I'd send her 100 bucks to go away forever.

It'd be the perfect happy ending. :)

9. Bachmann is a friend of mine.

She will yammer any time.
For a nickel or a dime...
Fifteen cents for overtime.
