This translates to more spending and backing of an unsustainable war. Blow the hell out of them, show the world we mean business, get out. That is the only way to handle this war.Michele Bachmann wrote: "The United States has been blessed with a strong, dedicated military which can and will defend our nation’s security and preserve the freedoms we cherish each day. I believe in the mission of our men and women fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan and support providing them with the necessary funding they need to achieve success overseas. Our commanders on the ground deserve praise as they have taken the fight to the enemy in both Afghanistan and Iraq and have prevented terrorists from striking us here at home. I support their efforts to combat terrorism, to ensure the safety of our country, and to further democracy in other parts of the world."
I absolutely agree, and nowhere else in this world could we better defend our country than from the inside of our borders. No more nation building.Michele Bachmann wrote: " We have an obligation to future generations of Americans to ensure our country keeps terrorism off U.S. soil. I will continue to support efforts to strengthen our national defense and support our uniformed men and women who are committed to protecting America."

She supports better energy practices, and using national resources, the only thing i dont like, is putting Colorado in that mix. I can see Alaska, where the impact on people would be far less intrusive, but in Colorado, it would cost people land and homes. That I don't agree with.

Michele Bachmann's absent voting record. The graph shows how often she was absent during votes in congress. She went way above that 90th percentile a few times since 2007.
Her voting record in entirety. Haven't finished going through it, but a few things already make me wonder. Her absent days for one. And not seeing many votes for spending cuts.

All in all, I like a lot of what she says, but I haven't gone through her voting record enough to see if she votes consistently the way she speaks. One glaring thing I cant support, is nation building and spending more money on unsustainable wars. And she is all for. So again, sounds like business as usual.
