Back To Normal With The Bachmanns

↵Last week’s vacation was great (thanks for asking!), but it feels good to getting back to normal—college football teetering on the brink of anarchy, David Stern powering his bulls**t express full speed ahead, Plaxico Burress calling out the Mayor of New York City, Mark Sanchez posing shirtless just because, and all of us staring into the crazed eyes of a goddamn revolution.

↵Speaking of which, now that I’m back to living on the internet until January, here’s to hoping that we’ll have a lot more of the Bachmanns in our life. From last week’s New Yorker cover story:

↵↵The team began reviewing footage of Bachmann’s Waterloo speech. Marcus, who is not a small man, stood in the aisle, his white shirt untucked, and mouthed his wife’s words as he watched.

↵When she arrived at her big applause line—“Make no mistake about it, Barack Obama will be a one . . . term . . . President!”—Marcus recited it out loud and raised his fist.
