A FADED STAR

Michele "The Eyes" Bachmann is now only good as the butt of jokes. According to some listeners, she said "henious" when she meant to say (I think) "heinous." For geography geeks, she implied that Libya was not in Africa:

BACHMANN: Defense spending is on the table, but again, Anderson, now with the president, he put us in Libya. He is now putting us in Africa. We already were stretched too thin, and he put our Special Operations Forces in Africa.

The Eyes also brought up an idea that was absurd when some clown at the NRO first brought it up back in 2008 and has not improved with time. From the final section of the debate:

Being reimbursed by nations that we have liberated is another. We should look to Iraq and Libya to reimburse us for part of what we have done to liberate these nations.
