13. No, 6th District. Mark Kennedy's seat that he's leaving to run for Senato |
|
Bachmann is a real Repubi-drone. Had Cheney here a few weeks ago, Bush here last Tueday, and rumor has it that Rove is on the way over.
The Unholy Trinity...

dressed in virginal white. Yes, correct.
From the article:
"Republican state Sen. Michele Bachmann, is the architect of legislation that would make gay marriage in Minnesota unconstitutional. She is very anti-abortion and used to pray and counsel outside abortion clinics in college."

14. Wetterling's son was kidnapped in 1989. Still missing |
|
Man, I can't even imagine what she went through and is still going through. There's still hope, though. That Austrian girl that was kidnapped 8 years go escaped to a neighbor's house and got the police just a couple of days ago. Kidnapper leapt in front of a train before police could grab him. http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/news/world/15364213.htmJacob Wetterling Foundation was established on January 22, 1990, four months after eleven year old Jacob Wetterling was abducted near his home in St. Joseph, Minnesota.
Jacob Wetterling was born on February 17, 1978. He grew up in St. Joseph, Minnesota with his parents, Patty and Jerry Wetterling, and his three siblings. On the evening of October 22, 1989, Jacob, his brother Trevor, and friend Aaron rode their bikes to a local convenience store to pick up a movie and snack. On the way back home, a man wearing a mask and carrying a gun stopped the boys. The gunman told the boys to throw their bikes into a nearby ditch and lay face down on the ground. He then asked each of the boys their age. After the boys responded, he instructed Trevor to run into the woods and told him not to look back or he would shoot him. Next, the gunman turned Aaron over, looked into his face, and told him to run into woods without looking back or he would shoot him. As Trevor and Aaron were running away, they glanced back to see the gunman grab Jacob's arm. When Aaron and Trevor reached the wooded area they turned around again and the gunman and Jacob were gone.
The local police were called to the scene of the abduction only minutes later and a search ensued that involved hundreds of volunteers, local law enforcement, FBI agents, and others. Jacob’s case has resulted in over 50,000 leads and has been studied by staff and trainees at the FBI academy in Quantico, Virginia. The case is highly unusual in a number of ways. Rarely are children abducted, especially by non-family members or while playing in groups. There are only 115 cases of long-term, non-family abduction called stereotypical kidnappings each year.
To date, law enforcement and Jacob’s family still do not know what happened to Jacob or his abductor or where they are now. http://www.jwf.org/

28. How can she protect America when she can't protect her own son? |
|
Vote Bachmann! :sarcasm:
Dear God, That had not even occured to me. You cynicism is both breathtaking and almost certainly correct. It will probably be a whisper campaign against her.

Women, not so sure that holds true. The bottom woman in white, looks more tight lipped, up tight.

If she teases it up just a little bit more, sharpens the bottom edges of her "do", and buys a big Caddy, she could look like a Texas real-estate agent.
