DescriptionLast September, when asked about the difficultly of fact-checking GOP presidential hopefuls during the 2011-12 primary season, an Associated Press editor said: "We had to have a self-imposed Michele Bachmann quota in some of those debates." The implication being, of course, that Bachmann was so full of ****, the AP would've needed round-the-clock staff to check all the claims she made while going toe to toe with Romney, Cain, Santorum, and the other GOP presidential hopefuls.

So it's no surprise that even students at the über-conservative Patrick Henry College in Purcellville, Virginia, were taken aback yesterday when Bachmann told them she is "very proud of the fact that I didn't get anything wrong that I said during the course of the debates" during an on-campus interview.
