OP
She'd be more insulted being plunked at an anti-war protest flashing that peace sign.

Or was she trying to make some other point or what?

Bachmann was referring to a campaign promise from her failed run at the presidency in which she vowed to bring gas prices back down under two dollars per gallon.

Anytime someone can get a jab at Bachmann, I'm in. She's just sooo easy.
I've never seen a public figure who is a caricature in so many ways.

if you're looking for caricatures. (But I agree, Bachmann is right up there!)

(45 posts)7. It takes a special kind of ego to take credit for falling gas prices....
however, maybe it was just her job to update the price on the sign...
which she did..
after 2 tries. Maybe?
