Our favorite Presidential candidate has gone retro!
In sort of a gaffe-within-a-gaffe, Michele Bachmann corrected her "Happy Birthday" to Elvis and:
Three hours after she made the error, Bachmann mentioned Elvis again, this time talking about his "passing" rather than his b-day. She played the song “Promised Land” and with a little shake, shake, shake of the hips said, “maybe we’ll turn it on at the end and do some shagging up here. If you want to shag a little bit, that’s what we’ll do.”
Regular gaffes are nothing new. If you want her hall-of-fame ones:
3. "Carbon dioxide is portrayed as harmful. But there isn't even one study that can be produced that shows that carbon dioxide is a harmful gas." -Rep. Michelle Bachmann, April, 2009
Just thought this particular one was one that
Austin Powers might appreciate:
The first Austin Powers film was a shagadelic blast that grossed $67 million in theaters back in 1997. It was followed in 1999 by Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me which raked in $310 million and by 2002's Austin Powers in Goldmember which did $289 million worldwide.
Hurry, they are
casting for the fourth movie in the series. Hint, Michele, hint!
