UPDATE: TBogg was up a bit earlier than we were. (There's a surprise!) Two minds, one juvenile thought.Michele Bachmann, Iowa born and the favourite to win the Straw Poll, arrived half an hour late for her slot and then spoke for just over two minutes, saying that Iowans were “going to send the signal” to the rest of America just as they had in 2008. “This is where Barack Obama got his start. This is where he’s going to come to his end, in Iowa.”
She beat a hasty retreat after being aggressively heckled by a young man who shouted that she believed homosexuals were “second-class citizens” and that she should not try to “pray away the gay”.
Driving away on a golf cart with her husband Marcus beside her, Mrs Bachmann stopped to buy a foot-long corn dog – a chicken and beef sausage in deep-fried batter. After applying mustard and allowing Mr Bachmann to take the first bite, she chomped into it with gusto.
UPDATE II: From a TBogg comment, we see M.B. (Not us or her, him.) getting his.
“It is her responsibility to address social issues in her area, and there have been six suicides in the last year from being bullied in her district,” Aderhold said to The Des Moines Register prior to heckling Michele Bachmann today at the Iowa State Fair.
His interview with The Register was interrupted by Caleb Humphrey, an Eldora resident and Army veteran of the Iraq war who disapproved of his actions.
“Here, I’ll tell you this,” Humphrey said to Aderhold. “You’re not going to have too much fun being gay when you ain’t got no money.”

Love it! Gawd she's as dumb as a box of hammers when it comes to photo op's.
Hahahaha
Tengrain at Mock, Scissors had the Marcus.
Yuck yuck, as they say on the cartoons.

Neither one of them seems to be enjoying it much.
The fact that her advisers let her do that should disqualify her from the presidency.
That man appears to be playing a brown flesh flute.

We doubt the candidates have much choice. If they don't eat at least some of the All-American junk they are open to criticisms of elitism. There's a shot of Santorum eating a chocolate soft ice cream cone making the rounds that will turn anyone's stomach. Blame their parents, who never taught them manners. (Obviously, or they wouldn't be who they are.)
Smut implies that the other other-M.B. at least isn't a racist.
He does look like someone's grandmama in the shot Dave linked.

That's not chocolate ice cream!
One would think that his handlers would have advised him not to go for the brown option.
Michele sure has creepy eyes.
Creepy eyes? No darlin' they are pure, 100% batshit crazy eyes.
Yeah, she freaks me out. She was in full-on Stepford Mode this morn on MTP.
