Michele Bachmann | Revolutionary War Gaffe | New Hampshire Primary | The Daily Caller - Breaking News, Opinion, Research, and Entertainment

Michele Bachmann | Revolutionary War Gaffe | New Hampshire Primary | The Daily Caller - Breaking News, Opinion, Research, and Entertainment: "Is there a double standard for conservatives when it comes to criticism of their public speaking missteps compared to liberals?

Take for example Politico and its 800-plus word treatise on Minnesota Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann’s gaffe, written by Jonathan Martin and Kendra Marr on Saturday. They had every possible angle covered. However, flash back to May 2008 when Martin filed a post about President Barack Obama’s 57-state gaffe — it wasn’t quite as in depth (video + 17 words).

That’s the sort of double standard Bachmann questioned on Laura Ingraham’s radio show on Tuesday when she explained her gaffe, in which she confused New Hampshire with Massachusetts as where the opening shots of the Revolutionary War took place, to fill-in host Raymond Arroyo."
