Rep. Michele Bachmann was on a tear: In one of her most fiery stump speeches to date, the tea party leader told a South Carolina audience that the tax code was a “weapon of mass destruction,” that President Obama is “babying” terrorists, that the rich pay too much in taxes, that social issues like marriage and abortion cannot be put on the “back burner,” and that Fox News’ Glenn Beck can solve America’s budget deficit.

What is it about Baggers like her, that they have to over exaggerate their language ???? Oh and that they are a completely crazy bunch of plonkers.
But shes gonna run in 2012.. Madame De Baggers
The fact that she isnt sedated in a rubber room wearing a jacket with wrap around sleeves really worries me!!

Hey look guys, its an attention whore. If Rep. Bachmann is out of the news for longer then eight days, she throws an childish tantrum on some irrelevent issue. In this case, several issues. Not once does she give something concrete and solid on how to accomplish any of what she is suggesting. As solid as her 'arguements (that's being liberal with the word 'generous') get, holds the consistancy of diarrhea.

This lady just doesn't have all her ducks in a row.

quote:

from article...
“Our Peace Prize-winning president is very busy bowing these days to kings,” she said. “He is bending down to dictators, and he is brown-nosing the elites that are in Europe, and he’s babying the jihadists who are following Sharia-compliant terrorism.”

Now if Republicans were to hold themselves as accountable as they do the Democrats, this woman would be out of a job by sundown today. But, as we know from MANY past experiences, that Republicans understand the concept of 'responsibility' about as well as Glenn Beck understand's economics. (read: nonexistant)

quote:

from article...
"...showing up to protest and they bring the kids they are supposed to be teaching.”

How better to educate kids, then allow them to see Democracy in action. We show kids how chemicals interact in chemistry. We show kids how to make electronics in Shop Class. We show kids how to exercise properly in gym class. We show kids that William Shakesspear isn't some non-noteworthy person from history at theaters every year. Why not show them how politics and our form of goverment work? She doesn't want kids to see that the liberals have some real fun at protest rallies where as conservatives simply shout vulgar and swear words 10 billion times a second, while holding posters that show a lack of education and intelligence. (not to mention maturity)

Come to the Light Side, Moderates.....we have cookies!

quote:

from article....
“At minimum, they shouldn’t get paid for that time. Those school boards need to make a decision whether or not they get fired.”

And where do those school boards get the money to help pay for the lawsuit that would obviously follow on the grounds of 1st Amendment speech? (not many, even if they think they could win) Last I checked, people call out sick for all sorts of things. Going to the beach, doctor's appointments, WoW Cata Releases....

I'm sure it'll come to light, that she has called out sick, when she really wasn't sick, but just didn't want to face an opponent that had his/her ducks in a row!

quote:

from article...
"...Because I say the dream goes on,”

Sounds very much like what another famous (and sane) person said on a few occasions...

quote:

For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die.

When I think 'upbeat' speechs, 'Republican' and/or 'Conservative', don't immediately come to mind.

Probably by prohibiting the compact florescent.

"Solving" the budget deficit would mean adjusting SS a bit, Medicaid/Medicare a lot, cutting defense spending (we could start with the things the Pentagon doesn't even want) and raising taxes.

That's the reality. Everything else is bandaids, posturing, and pet peeves.

I know, Beck would go to the modern republican way as in wars and drug pandering to the old...put the whole budget off books. Told you the dems were amateurs while the repubs are real pros.

Now she even wants join in on a cut $4.5 Billion out of the VA out of which $400 million was for medical care for the additional returning wounded war vets. Even the filthy rich can't afford a lousy 3% tax increase for that.

Doesn't matter anymore anyway. There is a new bipartisan caucus coming out with a bill to cut further spending on programs for the masses so they can further reduce corporate taxes and the top income tax rate to 29%. Are we rich yet ?

And in her case it is a whole lot of posturing:

“The bottom line, when you ‘get out your calculator’ and add all this up: total taxes of about 25 percent, rather than the 75 percent in Bachmann’s telling,” wrote the Washington Post, which used tax experts to assist in its calculations of federal, state and local taxes. “We presented this math to Bachmann’s spokesman and are still waiting for a response.”

well she also insisted that Obamas trip to India and Korea and Indonesia was going to cost $200, million a day, and a whole flotilla of warships to accompany him.
She never did have a good defense for that bullshit did she?

This is very sad. It used to be that politics was an arena for statesmen. Oratory was a polished tool for effecting change.

Now you have people who are not interested in legislating and are simply attention whores. While Limbaugh took years to build a media presence, Palin and Bachmann found that holding office is a short cut.

Sad.

What is sadder is they have supporters.

Not sure what you are talking about...but I am just applauding republicans for opening their hearts and minds to two drugged out freaks in Limbaugh and Beck. These two have bought enough drugs to keep mexican drug kingpins in business for years. But, hey, they come on your radio and tell you what you should be doing and you are men and women enough to believe them. I applaud you.

The filthy rich have gone global with their holdings. They don't care about silly borders and the people who defend them

In 1963, my mother took a few of her students to see Martin Luther King Jr speak during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. My great aunt drove them to the National Mall, not really sure what was going on, and thinking she was driving them to a riot, but doing it just the same.

When my mother returned home to Pennsylvania, someone had spray painted "N***** Lover" on her garage door, but this was a really minor sour note to an otherwise peak experience for her.

Yes, I am a Democrat (and I vote. And volunteer.)

Bachman and her ilk have no clue as to what they are doing. Like most ultra conservatives, she follows the philosophy of "Take care of the rich and fuck everyone else."

The Republicans are all in favor of cutting social security, vet benefits, and there has been talk at the local VA Hospital that there may be more closings of such facilities, which does not surprise me in the slightest.

A vet can put his life on the line to protect these asshats, but as far as being taken care of, forget it.

They are saying, in effect, "Thank you for your service, no go fucking die under a rock and dont bother us."

Well thank you Fellow.

That was quite interesting.

Almost as interesting as how the national debt grew under a series of Republican administrations.

RML, do NOT remind the Republicans that they started with a BUDGET surplus and promptly spent so much on two wars they had to finance 40% from China and other countries.

Okay, so you can remind them but they are going to deny it.
