Michele Bachmann Isn't Just Dumb, She Makes Bad Jokes Too

Around the 00:30 mark, Bachmann, during her appearance on Leno, tries to explain away the reparative therapy scandal surrounding her Christian counseling clinics by asserting that when asked about it, she misheard "pray the gay away" as "pray the gray away."  Uh, the joke... falls flat.




She also seemed to confuse her beliefs and convictions with a criminal conviction.  Which, in my mind, isn't too far off:

“If you become president — and you seem pretty strident in your views…,” Jay Leno said, before Bachmann interrupted him. 

“Convicted. I’m convicted,” she said. 

“Convicted?” Leno replied. “No, you don’t get convicted until after you’re in office. That’s later. You have to get elected first.”
