Presidential face leech and defender of “family values” Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) on Iraq (she recently returned from a visit there, so she’s pumped up) — she says have patience with the surge.

“It hasn’t had a chance to be in place long enough to offer a critique of how it’s working,” said Bachmann, R-Minn.

KagroX at DKos put it well.

Funny you should say so, Michele. Because word is that you weren’t in place long enough to offer a critique, either:
Security conditions in Iraq prevented Bachmann from meeting any Iraqis, leaving the Green Zone or staying in Iraq overnight. She and other congressional members were required to wear full body armor, including Kevlar helmets, during the entire trip, she said.
