nationalpost: Rick Perry defends Marines caught urinating on Taliban corpses in videoTexas Governor Rick Perry, scrambling to keep his U.S. presidential bid alive, accused the Obama administration on Sunday of over-reacting to a videotape that shows four Marines appearing to urinate on dead Taliban fighters in Afghanistan.“These kids made a mistake. There’s not any doubt about it. They shouldn’t have done it. It’s bad,” Perry told CNN’s “State of the Union” program.“But to call it a criminal act, I think, is over the top,” said Perry, who faces a possible make-or-break performance in the South Carolina Republican presidential primary on Saturday. (Photos: Reuters) Suppose several Vietnamese soldiers did this or, say, Afghan or Iraqi, to “patriotic, young, fearless” American soldiers. What would Perry say? Let me guess: “This is a shameful act of barbaric proportions and those uncouth bastards should be brought before the law for justice. The world is watching and we will teach these men a lesson. God bless America.” End scene.

Congresswoman Bachmann is a member of the House Select Committee on Intelligence and is fully aware that we do not have an embassy in Iran and have not had one since 1980. She was agreeing with the actions taken by the British to secure their embassy personnel and was speaking in the hypothetical, that if she was President of the United States and if we had an embassy in Iran, she would have taken the same actions as the British.

To clarify, all, Michele Bachmann’s staff denied the gaffe from Wednesday night. On Thursday. After the internet went into an uproar. (via shortformblog)

The regime is even embarrassed for Bachmann. No. One. Believes. You.
