Bachmann-Eyezed: Michele Bachmann Eyes App Mimics GOP Candidate's Signature Stare

Bachmann Eyezed Michele Bachmann

Michele Bachmann's presidential campaign may have hit some recent bumps, but at least one part of her is doing well.

Bachmann-Eyezed, an app that adds her signature stare to any photo, is now available for iPhones and iPads. Just pick a photo, place the tracer over the general ocular region and the app will replace your eyes with hers. Voila, instant Bachmann!

The $.99 iPhone app is based on a popular Tumblr of the same name, which has inspired a meme with such gems as Oprah with Michele Bachmann eyes, Pat Robertson with Michele Bachmann eyes and the HPV virus with Michele Bachmann eyes (The blog notes, "We use nothing but 100% real Michele Bachmann eyes.").

"Want that special, extra-intense look? Just slide the 'craziness level' up and see what happens," the app's description reads.

The GOP congresswoman and her intense gaze were recently featured on the cover of Newsweek. The magazine took a lot of heat for the pic, but editor Tina Brown defended it.

"Michele Bachmann’s intensity is galvanizing voters in Iowa right now and Newsweek’s cover captures that," she tweeted.

The app also allows users to save the pic for easy sharing. For even more updates, follow Bachmann-eyezed on Twitter.

Here's a preview of the app, courtesy of the App Store:

But it's not, so it isn't. Your point? Other than the one on the top of your head?

"She and Palin are both beautiful women."

And what does that have to do with politics? Or anything, really? Is that how you judge the quality of a human female? By the shape of their outside flesh?

Please take this message back to Mars with you, Ambassador.

In the United states of America we, as earthlings, pay what are called 'compliments' when they are warranted.
A compliment is what happens when you admire someone or something and want to give praise.

Earthlings will say things like.. "Your space ship is awesome."
"You look lovely in that shade of green, Ambassador.".. that sort of thing.

When giving a compliment.. earthlings don't first ask the receiver of the compliment if they had good grades in high school, if they've robbed the man in the moon..or if they voted for a Marxist to take over the U.S.A.

We simply pay the compliment at which time the earthling receiving the compliment will say... "Thank you."..unless they're shy and don't say anything.
That type of earthling will most likely blush when complimented.

It's a simple process.

I thank you, Ambassador.. for taking our message back to your alien friends so they, too, can implement this nice gesture of complimenting one another. :)

Michele Bachmann is a pathological LIAR.

They say; the eyes are windows to the soul. You can tell a lot about a person by their eyes. In Bachmann's case, she has a wild, un-focused stare, indicating a person with a shallow understanding of the world around her. She sees the world through a narrow perpective, with concerns that extend only as she sees it. She is highly self serving and has little capacity for apathy. I'm an armchair shrink, you say? You don't live as long as I have and not have learned something about human nature
