Michele Bachmann is a bust

In the past, it has been assumed a woman could not handle the presidency of our country because the soft and nurturing nature that all women possess would undoubtedly leave America with a weak and indecisive leader.

 Michele Bachmann has proven that not all women are weak, indecisive or even have a hint of compassion.

 Bachmann is a right wing Republican with an agenda against gays, Medicare, federal funding of Planned Parenthood, funding for public radio and modernizing FDA. 

She also shot down the entire regimens of bills meant to modernize and stabilize the American voting system. 

Bachmann and her family are sustained by her and her husband's Christian-based family health care clinic, where practitioners have been advising the gay community that they can "pray away the gay" and that "once becoming straight, God will forgive [them]." Many hopefuls paid to become "reoriented" and "cured."

Bachmann was also voted against the repeal of "don't ask don't tell" and the expansion of the definition of hate crimes. Bachmann and Associates, the family's firm, was also reported to be receiving Medicare payments, which Bachmann repeatedly shows her distaste for, either through her voting record or interviews.

In addition, Bachmann supported the denial of funds to Planned Parenthood, making birth control and other contraceptives expensive to the general public once more. This is taking a toll on the community, and we may notice those effects in about nine months. 

Bachmann must be getting a kick out of being big brother, as she has voted to add and sustain the Patriot Act on three separate occasions to extend various Patriots Act provisions. 

The Patriot Act gives the government the right to wire tap or listen into private phone calls, among other things. 

It seems quite convenient that the modernization of the American vote has not been on her priority list, voting down bills that would require disclosure on campaign finance, ballots to be backed up on paper, and against federal funding to modernize the voting system. 

Seeing as she is running for president, I sure hope she is looking for an accurate voting count for America.
