That's why they want to criticize."Those who can accomplish things do.Those who can't criticize."

Donald? Is that you?

If a woman or man can't run for public office without condemning and running AGAINST someone else, then she or he has nothing whatsoever to offer.

Ms. Bachmann has scarcely uttered a sentence in the past year which didn't contain the name Barack Obama. It wore thin months ago, yet it persists.

Don't tell us about your competition, and talk about what a terrible person he is. Tell us who YOU are, what YOU believe in, what YOUR vision is and what YOU will do for our country. And try hard to do it coherently, please.

Don't just wallow in the mud, and then try to persuade us that you won't also come out dirty.

Right... because Trump has never accomplished anything. Because a community organizer who got swept into office on a wave of liberal mania can really compare to a billionaire industrialist.

I'm guessing you don't read much or you would have known that Trump inherited his wealth. He didn't do anything to earn it on his own. Now if you want to say he knows how to maintain his wealth off the backs of the middle class and lower class, then I would agree. Not sure that's an accomplishment though.

Robert in Orgeon .......... woman or man for that matter. She rails against socialized medicine while her husband rakes in a couple hundred thousand from socialized medicing with his mental health clinic.

What a hoot!!!!!!!!!

The only good thing about the primaries is that this hag and other morons will hopefully disappear.

Right now it looks like a moron will finish first in the primaries though. Ron Paul's been swept under the carpet and few have even heard of Jon Huntsman.

I fully hope that Bachmann gets the Teapublican nod.

Obama/Biden 2012

For someone always preaching about the constitution, Bachmann seems to know very little about it. The last time I checked, it was congress who was responsible for the fiscal matters and taxation of the US. If any leader has failed it was Boehner and Reid. Obama made his proposal to congress, back in September. It was completely up to them after that.

tweet - as a woman who has spent her life in business - Bachman sealed her fate when at the last "bare your soul" fiasco - she took the water pitcher and filled all of the men's glasses - maybe a little thing to you - but sitting in a conference room with some very high powered women - the pitcher would have been passed - for the men to serve themselves

Question - Michelle - are we electing a maid - or would you be like Palin who's husband was co-governor

I believe she blew it - I looked at that visual and said "shades of the fifties"

Robert,

You are absolutely right. Even in the debates, regardless of the question, her sentences begin with Baraaack Obaaaaama.....

Railing against Obama is played out. It earned Bachmann 5% of the vote, but she's not smart enough to know that this tactic will gain her nothing more.

She's done.

Bachman played obama card way too much. People are tired of Obama being blamed while GOP is unable to have a viable alternative.

GOP neither has an alternative nor any concrete ideas. I like core republican values (which are more libertarian than republican) but the current party has long abdicated those.

Lets take a look at republican candidates?

Romney - Not enough christian. That speaks more about republican voters than the candidate but unfortunately that is lost on GOP.

Newt - Nutty

Bachman - Bitchy

Perry - Oh my god

Cain - Nein Nein Nein

Santorum - Desperation Personified

Huntsman - Who?

Ron Paul - Are you kidding?

So that leaves us with one and only - Sarah Palin.... Yeah now we are talking. Come on Sarah. The country is calling you away from your network shows. We promise you it won't be for more than a year and we will send you back to minting money on FOX.

that's an excellent observation,Barbara. I hadn't picked up on that.

Trump is all about Trump. He accomplishes what he does by leaving bodies in his wake. He is everything America should not be... everything hated by the rest of the world... everything that's wrong today... selfish greed with no conscience.

If that still sounds good to you, go on with your man-worshiping.

Absolutely, Because Obama has the gall to point out the responsibilities of others he is dodging responsibility himself. Well, Obama's assertions are not made up out of whole cloth like the Donald's birther issue. It is a fact that George W Bush brought this country to the brink of disaster. It is a fact that not only has Obama averted that disaster but made gains in foreign policy unachievable by the sabre rattling Bush.

Folks, the reality is that the war in Iraq has cost us big time. Somebody needs to say it. That was a republican idea based on faulty information. That cost us over 4000 american lives and trillions of dollars. Tell me, what have we gained?

Everything Obama has done has been thoughtful and worked out for the betterment of the US. Republicans are hanging their hats on a soft economy with high unemployment. Employment numbers are a lagging indicator. Everyone knows that. You cannot change them with the flip of a switch. it is even more difficult to change them when you have companies refusing to take on more staff so that they can maximize thier profits and not put them back into american jobs.

So, what do they say? Obamacare is going to bring us down. Really? How do we know that and exactly how will that happen? The reality is that healthcare costs are out of control. Obama had the intetinal fortitude to take on the issue. The Repugs want business as usual with insurance companies making excess profits on the backs of their insureds. No, people will soon find out that this POTUS is about doing things for the betterment of all of the people, not just those at the very top.

Simply put, Repugs want those in the middle to work harder, get less and pay more more taxes because that is what the american work ethic is all about. Yes, that means that those on the top become obscenelky wealthy. But, what is worng with that? After all. we are capitalists?

Spartan I almost think the plan all along has been to have Huntsman on the down low and after all the other candidates combust through their own stupidity bring Huntsman front and center. I'm watching to see if this happens.

Who is Norquist? And how did he get into driver's seat on the debt debate? Norquist was politically active at a young age, volunteering for Richard Nixon when he was 12. He was handpicked by the Reagan Administration to run Americans for Tax Reform to help pass tax reform in the 1980s. Norquist launched the "pledge" in 1986.

Odd as it may seem Norquist has had incoming Republican Congressional candidates sign this pledge from 1986 and to date most signed. Jon Huntsman was at the White House during these years serving as a staff assistant to Reagan. How he has evaded signing this is a question that should be answered. I believe "they" have been grooming him so he could stand up in 2012 and say " I never signed." Proving he has to be the sanest of the crazies.

Can you imagine a plan/plot over the course of 25 plus years? It's frightening in some aspects. But, none the less, Republicans have been signing this pledge for that long to get us exactly where we are today. Sheeesh almost mind boggling.

Huntsman is a very interesting man. He came from wealth (big time wealth) and quit High School to play in a rock and roll band. Lol...bet that upset his family big time. He went on to get a GED and a Bachelors Degree. I think the man is probably very smart. Somewhere along the line he learned the Mandarin language fluently and recently served under Obama as the Ambassador to China.

I am not in any way endorsing Huntsman. I just think this whole dog and pony show is interesting and I'm trying to find the goal of this method of madness. I think I have....we'll see.

selfmade13,

RE: your post #1.2

I see your having another great day! Please take your blood presure meds daily, you need them. Also, I have one question for you. Seriously, have you ever considered critical thinking based on Aristolelian Logic? Perhaps the below introduction will help you arrive at meaningful solutions to complex problems and, just maybe, you will find some inner peace and calm.

http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/aristotle-logic/

To quote Keith Olbermann, "that woman is an idiot." Why should President Obama take responsibility for the GOP's fiscally irresponsible destruction of the US economy, the deficit and the debt from 2001 through 2008. Obama didn't create this economic mess or the huge debt, he inherited it. Bachmann is a fool and a clueless one at that.

The worst thing about all these Republican candidates is that they're going to put Obama in for another four years. That in itself is a crime.

All these folks running for the office of president are a real joke. They all talk of responsibility of the Office of President..who is elected by the voters..yet..not one of these want to be's have mentioned that we have 5oo + in congress, both houses that also have a resonsibility..to represent the voters of this country..and not one of them has done that...none of them are capable of doing their jobs...they all have their own agenda's..which have little to nothing to do with the voters...and those running today are no better...

Our elected have protected the wealthy and big business with our tax money..yet many on here have no problem placing all blame on the folks that have lost everything, most through no fault of their own.

Bachmann is in denyal, 67% of Americans blame the Republicans for this failure - not Obama. Here is an interesting concept in a Democracy. Have Congress do what Americans want them to do by the polls, things can't get any worse.

Bachmann constantly touts the constitution, yet she blames the President for fiscal matters that quiet frankly he should have very little to do with.. Ms. Bachmann please read the Constitution and make a complete sentence without Obama as the center piece.

I often wonder if her private conversations at home also include Obama..

"Honey ready for Diner?" "I would be if not for the failed Policies of a One Term President, OBAMA".. Cricket Cricket ...

Bachmann can't even read and understand the Bible, do you expect her to read and understand the Constitution??? It amazes me that a sitting member of Congress doesn't know that it is actually her job, right now, to figure out the budget. Instead she's on a book tour playing with the dirty old man version of Paris Hilton. Shame on you, Minnesota.

I want a Mr. Potatohead with Newt's gut, Trump's fake hair and Bachmann's fake face.

This coming from a Welfare Queen? Ha!

Memo to Batshyt Bachmann. You are no longer a contender in the presidential elections. Learn it!

Ever think that if the far right had their way and the church became the state, would they then be okay with medical for all? I have a feeling they would be all for it, because it would draw in more devoted citizens. They would then most likely be okay with feeding the poor as well. Education - no problem, as long as it is taught around the christian religion.

I sometimes think they actually are the "missing link" that they decry doesn't exist to try to discredit Darwin's theory of evolution.

"if the far right had their way and the church became the state"- they would PUNISH you for not being healed by "Jesus" (not his real name) --same for the poor-unfed

Typical unhonorable republican. Would not know honor if staring her straight in the face. Truly just a nasty bitch. Completely absurd. NEVER had a chance in hell and STILL making a complete ass out of herself. Stupid just like her party. Shameful bunch.

It wouldnt be worth it. Think I ll go buy a vibrator.

Herb, I'd be careful with the use of "turning off" someone. That is commonly accepted as a kill order or assassination order. We don't need a free thinking, intelligent person being put in the slam for verbiage!

As for the BJ for JC... that was AWESOME!

Thanks a lot, Herb!! Now I can't get the image of Marcus kneeling before a dirty hippie out of my mind!!!!!

All the fools who still think Obama is doing a good job should have a bath with a blowdryer in the water we have enough stupid in the world let us get rid of these Obamobots!

haha goodytwoshoes repeated selfmade13s line about a hair dryer bath

...a live demonstration of how these wingnuts share their ideology

btw, who let the 12 years old in on this?

Don't you just love those folks who know what you are thinking, what you want or don't want and have no personal relationship with you? When the throwback scullery maid states that "Obama never wanted to take personal responsibility" she implies knowing what only Michelle may know. Bachman mentions Obama sooooo much, I'm beginning to think she actually admires him, maybe has a serious crush on him. If she again decries his leaving Washington for a vacation or meeting when something important is happening in Congress she clearly is out of touch with the responsibility of the presidency AND the leading recommendations of experts in mental health who recommend regular "breaks" from high stress jobs. Of course, he's never off the job, really. The woman is an embarrassment to us women trying to be taken seriously at the highest levels of corporate America. Please go have coffee in Alaska and talk about hairstyles. Take Trump.

The woman is an embarrassment to us women trying to be taken seriously at the highest levels of corporate America.

Yes she is. When men STILL want to believe they are somehow smarter just because they are men, she sets women back years.

Please go have coffee in Alaska and talk about hairstyles. Take Trump.

Sounds like a good plan for all three mentioned.

Sorry Rico, but she does not reflect poorly on all Women. Just as one person of color doing something stupid does not reflect on all people of color.

She is an Idiot all by herself. She just HAPPENS to be a Woman.

Sorry Rico, but she does not reflect poorly on all Women. Just as one person of color doing something stupid does not reflect on all people of color.

She is an Idiot all by herself, she just happens to be a Woman.

Thank you Otto.

Obama's was community organizer your point?

I love the people that think theyre striking gold when they call Obama a community organizer, like they even have their own mind about what his actual experience was, what a community organizer is or what that statement implies.

They think we are as deluded and impressionable as they are and all it takes is a half baked charge to get us foaming at the mouth like they are

Lib in OK, one other thing about our conservative friends is that they are really big on personal responsibility, as noted in the story. Yet, when it comes to the congress, it's President Obama's fault for them not doing their jobs. Congress setup the super committee, the timeline and the penalty for not negotiating a deal. Congress failed to deliver not the President.

I think Ms. Bachmann was actually aiming her criticism at Mr. Obama's limited ability as a "leader" and while Ms. Bachmann has zero shot at winning the presidency, her criticism is correct. Mr. Obama disappears when the biggest issues are on the national plate...often leaving the country altogether. Of course, he arrives a bit later, to criticise whomever did not do or say what would have been his preferred outcome.

That is not leadership. He is not a "leader" in any way, shape, or form. Ms. Bachmann will never be president. Mr. Obama will never be a leader.

As with so many, Tony, you have a complete chalk-board memory that gets wiped the instant the subject is changed. Did you not pay attention to the Debt-ceiling debate at all? Obama and Boehner had multiple marathon meetings day after day. Every single time, it always came down to Boehner refusing to accept any increased revenues. Obama has tried and tried to get involved. He's been the conciliator, he's been the bully, and finally he's letting congress work on their own.

Lets not forget, the entire point of creating the supercommittee in the first place was to make it too painful for either side to let it fail. Budgets and taxes are on Congress' shoulders. And finally, quit being so naive. For 2 years now, republicans have made it their mission to block absolutely everything Obama does. They aren't even keeping it a secret, they put it right out there in the open. They will try to bring down anything and everything he touches. What would have been the point in him getting involved?

This was congress' responsibility. They failed, not the president. Have you even looked at what Obama has been doing? Trying reading some more moderate, centrist writings. Its actually looking like Obama's dealings in the Pacific and Asia may be some of the biggest boons to our country's economy AND political relations we've seen in decades.

That is simply an opinion tony, and an ignorant one at that.

appalachian...

Thanks for the insult...very typical of your ilk...you know, the holier-than-thou type who is far more intelligent and compassionate and open-minded than the rest of us "ignorant" folk.

Your comment says much more about you than it says about me. Great job !

It's like the saying goes Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves, well Obama gave them all the rope they wanted now they whine like a bunch of little girls ........ Every time I check out the GOP clan I just have to LMAO, if you took all of these candidate and looked them over closely not one has the ability to lead a bunch of girl scouts let alone the country .....

tony268769, it is always easy to criticize a leader from behind, you can't see what they see or know what they know.

It is my understandingthat it is the responsibility of Congress to address the deficit issues so in fact as a member of Congress it is more Bachmans fault than Obamas.

However in the case of Bachman she is so far behind in the pack that not only can she not see what the leader is seeing she doesn't even know what trail they are on. You need to have some leadership experience to understand.

She is a career politician hack on the road to a book and public speaking tour or as we call it down here "the pro leisure circuit".

" ... about this female dog.... "

LOL. Without being mean or calling names, which I am not doing. The word used to describe a female dog is bitch.

Not calling anyone that. Just saying.

Kind of like Republicans do.

But ......

Say what you want about Bachmann, but she spoke the truth! And to the modern liberal/progressive with his'her head in the sand.... "You Can't Handle The Truth!' !

Thank You Michele!

The super committee is a great example of his failure... only a weak spined president would create a committee that was doomed to failure from the beginning. He preferred to delegate a decision that should have been his to solve, instead he appoints a group split between economic ideologies.... now he can falsely blame the Republicans and ignore his own failure!

I wouldn't vote for Bachmann, but in this case she got it right!

dogs all over the world resent that comparison

@ Memphis Kelly - Obviously you are ignorant of the facts and of the responsibility of the Congress.

1. The Congress set up the super-committee as part of the August Debt Ceiling deal, remember that Tea Party fiasco?

2. It is the responsibility of Congress to reach a deal on the budget cuts, not the President. Congress is the Legislative Branch of our government. The Presidency is the Executive Branch.

It's quite obvious from your comment that you either are willfully uniformed, or you're simply another Obama Hater who will look for any reason to demean this President. Either way your's is a sick, minority opinion. Fortunately for you, you live in a country that gives you the right to your opinion and the freedom to say anything even if it is a lie, just like I and others like me have the right to call out your ignorance when we see it.

Say, obviously you don't understand that Obama had an opportunity to force Congress to get a deficit deal done, but lacked the leadership skills to assert himself! He preferred the path of least resistance when he directed Congress to form a committee that everyone knew would be deadlocked! Excuse me, everyone but the liberals knew that! lmao!

Memphis Kelly,

So your saying that President Obama is responsible for the failure of The U.S. Congress by, by, by, by,.......well hell, I know it sound "reasonable" to you, right? I bet you live in Collierville, Germantown or Moscow!

It's called "failure" of leadership...that's the point Ms. Bachmann was making.

The GOP House and the fillibuster proof Senate failed to pass a budget. Instead, they appointed a Super Committe and it failed to agree to a spending cut plus revenue increase package. It is the Congress which has to duty to handle financial matters. It has control of trhe "purse strings"!

Will the GOP teabaggers ever take responsibility for their refusal to act responsibly?

FedUp: no need to attack her gender. Seriously. No need.

AP...

Pretty amazing isn't it ! A conservative woman once again becomes an instant target for liberal hostility. "Dog" and the courageous hints at "bitch". So very elegant, from the holier-than-thou set.

These folks will miss Ms. Bachmann when she's gone...before they get to the filthier posts, ala Ms. Palin.

Kinbass, I believe the people of Minnesota once elected professional wrestler Jesse "The Body" Ventura the Governor of their state. I'm just sayin' ....

Bachmann makes Jesse The Body look like Kennedy.

Minnesota has every right to be out of its mind.

Minnesotans plead insanity !

Kinbass...

After Jessie Ventura and the fluff headed Al Franken...can Ms. Bachmann's election to office really surprise you ?

They elected her for the same reason california elected polose . JUST TO GET THEM OUT OF THE STATE !!!!!!

bobi - the people of California voted for Nancy Pelosi - because she is the iron maiden - takes no crap from anyone least of all you!

comparing pelosi with bachman. sigh! That pretty much sums up the difference bet Democrats and Teapublicans

They elected her for the same reason california elected polose .

Who?

Astually Yank - I'm not for term limits - the world today is very complex - would you want these freshmen yahoo's coming and going who have no clue about our Constitution?

Right now we have some very good Senators who have spent years understanding the complexities of the International World - throw them out for what a baby who doesn't know where Africa is - the secret is weeding - take the best and get rid of the worst - like Ben Nelson - who signed the Norquist Pledge

Be selective who you vote for - before you vote - my husband and I sit and talk about the various candidates - the voters have to be smarter and pay more attention - it is their life they are voting for

The problem with term limits is that it would actually give more power to an entrenched bureaucracy of aides, staffers, and lobbyists - none of whom are elected.

hmmmm never thought of that Composer. What's the answer?

Barbara, Weeding them out is the best idea, however, in a state like mine, weeding is impossible because no one has a chance running against either of our senators--Shelby and Sessions--both GOP. it is the same with our congressmen. In all of our delegation, we have only 3 Dems in congress and those are from the poorest (read most democratic) districts.

It is futile to even vote but I pride myself on being the tiny spot of blue in the sea of red.

Term limits at the state level have proven composer's point. Here in Michigan we have a legislature made up of newbie amateurs and people working to secure their next jobs. As a result, we have chronic problems of postponing hard decisions and legislation that essentially begins and ends with the only people in Lansing who take their jobs seriously: the lobbyists and career staffers who hop from one short-timer to the next.

Bachmann can't be blamed on all Minnesotans and she hasn't been in Congress long enough to be held up as an argument for term limits. She is representative of her district, which is pretty reasonably drawn to capture the wingnut northern exurbia of the Minneapolis area. Any likely outcome of redistricting will leave that a mostly conservative district. Minnesota wouldn't magically turn solid blue if there were term limits, because there really are many people there much like Bachmann.

You can start by preventing gerrymandering in your own states. Start a petition, amend your state constitution.

Florida is working on it, the law has passed and now the state politicians are fighting it tooth a nail. Mind you they are using tax-payers money to fight something that passed by 63% of the vote... disgusting.

Do districting like Iowa does. It's too late to explain it, but it involves computers, and then some human tweaking by an unelected, non-partisan board. It actually works, and neither party ever complains, because they have all either lost districts, or gained, but they know it was not because the other guys were in power. Ask, Bing, Google, whatever, it. It is the way every state should do it.

No law will change things overnight and of course there are dangers, like that of the bureaucrats, and novices.

One of the things term limits will prevent is that people like Bachman and so many others who won a personality contest to get in and seeing the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, the cushy lifestyle, and the fact that she doesn't have to think beyond her limited capacity want to make a "career" out of remaining elected. So the likely-hood of idiots running knowing that it is a short-lived term will be reduced.

It would encourage intelligent, visionary, entrepreneurial types who see a successful term in the service to their country or state as an enhancement to their resume. If the only pot at the end of the rainbow was a decent paycheck, a resume enhancer, an a chance to move well in the private sector or public service then the people who would seek that would have something going on in their heads other than visions of grandeur and power.

Is the be all and end all of getting politics out of government....no but it's a step in the right direction. Campaign financing has to be addressed, lobbyists (the only lobbists should be the electorate), education (I was taught how the US government works and functions and how other governments work as well, I understand, and know for sure in Australia, that this is not he case today, and mostly the dumbing down of the population....why is that more people are interested in the outcome of dancing with the stars (or whatever) than they are with the outcomes, successes and failures of their own lives - or the Ophra WINFREE mindset.

Mind you there is nothing wrong with entertainment I am a musician and I love spectator sports.... but the Hollywood Hero Worship complex that the general pouplation seems to have in out of control....more people believe the medical advice they get on the Ophra WINFREE Show than they do the advice from their own educated doctor.

Something is wrong here but the people who want power and control will encourage this type of behaviour because it keeps the population from focusing on the only real game.....their own lives and that of their families and communities. They don't want people thinking and if you think that is not what is going on in the boardrooms of the Military Industrial Complex then you are not thinking. This is another reason for Term Limits ..... you ain't gonna spend money buying politicians if you are not going to get a "long-term contract" there is nothing that the powers that be fear more than education and term limits. They will fight to the very last career politician to prevent their power over government from being diluted.

I would, under any circumstances, prefer a novice over a crook, you???? So that leave Newt (the point of this article) out.....he's a crook and a liar....and that doesn't even allude to his moral character.

If TERM LIMITS starts getting a real push in the US, Australia and in Western Democracies in general, you watch the real virals start coming out of the woodwork with the Koch Bros, Sorios, and their ilk leading the way.

God told her that.

" ... God told her that. ... "

In person.

Scomma - I was with you until you said she made her husband gay - if that where the case I guess most of you can say my mommy did it - sorry doesn't fly you are born that way - like it or not

However - I have bigger issues with this woman - who would elect a "Stepford Wife"

And this is just another case where the media, and so many others, don't understand the constitution. She is Representative Bachmann, not Congreswoman, unless you are also including ALL SENATORS as congressmen/women in your references. After all, Congress is made up of TWO houses, not just members of the lower House. Senators are also congressmen/women.

It is interesting how many of the candidates this year are spending just as much, if not more, of their time trying to push their books. Just another way to keep themselves in the limelight while lining their pockets. My question is why would anyone waste their money buying any of that trash they call books, let alone go see the person. I'm so glad I'm not inundated anymore with all of this nonsense every day through TV. It is so nice to have cut the cord with TV, cable, and satellite. And I don't waste my time with the paper media either (and I used to work for news media or publish my own until 2008.) I get my news now when I want it through various internet sources and can click on only those stories that interest me. I read this one just to see what other nonsense these politicians were espousing on the day that it was confirmed that the idiots in DC did exactly what we all knew they would do......fail once again to accomplish something for the good of the country.

Washington has been failing ever since we failed to listen to the only great GOP president since Lincoln (or maybe Teddy). Why did we not listen to Ike when he warned us to beware of the military/industrial complex? This country has been going economically downhill ever since then. And he had the highest tax rate of any president since his administration. The economy still was good and we paid off the war debts of both WWII and Korea because of those high taxes. We are still failing to pay off the debt of Vietnam, Gulf War, Afghanistan, Iraq, War on Drugs, and War on Terrorism, partly because of all of the reductions in tax rates and tax collections, and all of the growing list of deductions, credits, and other means of getting out of paying taxes.

djj - What the hell she saw the writing on the wall - Herman, Gingrich, Palin - all selling books - and I thought Americans didn't read

Next to fall these publishing companies - you heard it here - nobody reads

Well, dumbed down propraganda texts do seem consumed a-plenty by extremist Republicans.

However they are capable of reading, as opposed to many voters on the left...who don't buy any books at all.

What are we thirteen or what? Go to bed I hear your Mom coming!

Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman are the only valid alternatives to Obama--and even then it's doubtful that they'll do a BETTER job.

earthlover - sorry to say the majority of Americans don't see through this - Faux News has a monopoly - piped into all military - set into all bars - get your car fixed - piped in - sitting in a dentist office - piped in

They have bought America

Spartan,

And combined they have what? 6% of the vote?

The right wing doesn't want competent people. They want Obama haters who will swear to lower taxes for millionaires and up. The fact that they consistently try to nominate the dumbest person they can find is just sad.

Good think you can still work a keyboard with that much liberal phallus crammed down your throat.

Yeah, it's a good think alright. Spoken like a true conservative.

selfmade...your comments are quite typical of those who defend the likes of Bachmann. Thank you for demonstrating the true spirit of the "tea" party.

My cat is still much less hypocritical than she is. Technically, she was a teen mother who milked the system for a while (living in the shelter) but has now reformed and stops producing kittens and spends her days playing with cat toys bought by the private sector.

But she doesn't try to askew the reality of her current and previous situation. Such a good little kitty my Coraline. ^.^

Hey Toasty, that's an insult. My dogs are much smarter than Michelle Bachmann!

Is this imbecile still out there fleecing Republican suckers out of their hard stolen money by pretending to be a viable presidential candidate? Why anyone would listen to this loony tunes cartoon escapee amazes me. I remember what I said to myself the first time I heard one Bachmann’s mindless rants; “OMG, this woman is insane”. Seriously, look into her eyes…….she really is nuts.

Toasty ... I think you should be censured by the moderator for your insults directed towards pets.

Toasty - I am owned by a new pet - lost my little girl of ten years and found this creature in Alaska - smarter and more crafty - fights you one moment loves you another

Sounds like my children - what I wonder the most about this woman is all the foster children she has housed - where they sent to a secret island? No feed-back whatsoever - she made approximately over the years at least $720,000 housing these girls - where are they today?

Plus - she has four children - a total blank

Is this imbecile still out there fleecing Republican suckers out of their hard stolen money by pretending to be a viable presidential candidate?

So let her. Less money they will have to throw at their candidate in the general election against Obama.

Toasty--my cats are smarter than Michele Bachmann!

LOL . . . what could you possibly hope to gain by posting gibberish ?

Nothing. And that's the point. People like American in Asia can only spout gibberish. He fallows the Republicans like a lemming. And simply repeats the gibberish that they feed him. Sorry part is that (s)he believes it.

And what do they have to gain? I don't think they do. And I don't think it even matters to them. They just do it. All they have is fear, hate and the lies that keep telling each other in the hope tat someday it will be come true.

Kinda of like a 3 year old believes in Santa Clause. Reality says that he's not real. But they have a desperate need to believe. And besides mom and did would lie to them. Would they?

Sounds like you've been sipping too much of that Chinese "commie" soup.
