Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) is set to meet Sarah Palin tonight, Minnesota Public Radio reports.
Palin is in Minnesota today for her book tour, and is scheduled to attend a private fundraiser where Bachmann will also be showing up. "I hope I can get a book and maybe get it signed," Bachmann told reporters.
Bachmann was also asked about the potential presidential candidacies of both Palin and her own governor, Tim Pawlenty -- and didn't immediately commit to either one. "I like both of them, " Bachmann said. "They're great. Of course I'm very partial toward our own governor. I think he's marvelous, but I love Gov. Palin. And I'm sure that there will be a lot more choices out there as well. So, I'll withhold judgement as to who I'll be supporting."

"The stoopid. The stooooopid. Help me, Mr. Wizard!"
"Drizzle, drazzle, druzzle, drome; time for this one to come home."
Meanwhile, in a last-ditch attempt to permanently escape the stoopid, Mr. Peabody is frantically programming the WABAC Machine in the hope of turning himself and anyone else who's interested in joining him into eternal primordial ooze.

Oh, it will cost you for that signature.
She "loves" rambo? Is she a closet lesbian? That would be standard for repukes. Just come out of the closet bachmann.

That's a lot of stupid to put into one room. Although I suppose having a vacuum between one's ears is helpful for Hoovering dollars at fundraisers...

"Dear Michele, don't think for a minute that you can out-crazy me -- I will be the teabag standard-bearer in 2012 and if you even try to compete I will take you down and gut you like a moose. Regards, Sarah."

I think Bachmann was tossing her hat into the ring.

I'm worried that a collision of these narcissistic egos will create a vortex of stupid into which we will all be sucked.

I'm thinking more just an all out catfight, but I'm not worrried. I see the making of a great SNL sketch. You know they're both thinking, "damn that crazy bitch is muscling into my territory." I'm sure they both put vaseline on their teeth so they can keep smiling while plotting the other's demise. In their world it's a zero-sum game.

That's currently scheduled for when either or both of them run for President in 2012. Maybe the Mayans were onto something... :)

How is this possible? I was certain that there was a Law of the Universe that states that Clark Kent and Superman can't be in the same room at the same time.

"I hope I can get a book and maybe get it signed,"
Meaning...I'm not paying for the POS, but if she wants to give me one, I hope she signs it so I can use it in a voodoo ritual. If not, I'll just look for the first opportunity to accidentally shove her off the stage.
