According to the editorial board of the New York Times, Michele Bachmann is thin on experience. That's interesting. She served six years in the Minnesota senate and will have six years in the United States House of Representatives in January 2013. When Barack Obama took office as president in January 2009, he had eight years in the Illinois senate and four years in the United States Senate. That's 12 years apiece—and Bachmann has more experience (six years to four) at the federal level. Do you recall the editorial board saying that Obama was thin on experience? Is the board not embarrassed by its obvious double standards?
