CONG. MICHELE BACHMAN: R-MN
Michele Marie Amble Bachmann, is possibly Sarah Palin’s biggest competitor in the good looks, but no brains department.
She is a Devout Prejudist, which is an offshoot of the Latent Imbeciles of Minnesota Prefect (LIMP).
She is also married to one of the biggest homophobic Christian Conversion groups in the country. She would bring a lot to the White-house. Maybe as the upstairs Chamber pot maid.
Bachman also shares Sarah’s love of God, as long as it is her God, country, her country and her spiritual thinking. All others need not apply. Left winger, right winger, nope Church and State winger with a lot of thumping, yes. She has claimed she is the Tea Party.
NOTABLE F*UPS
NO FAIRY TALES - STRAIGHT BABLIFICATION
This devotional started when she opened the New Heights Charter School in Stillwater, Minnesota. The school’s curriculum featured creationism and advocated that the "12 Christian Principles" similar to the Bill of Rights. What happened to the First Amendment, and most likened it a cult mentality.
She and the other heaven wingers refused to allow the movie "Aladdin," because it depicted witchcraft and promoted paganism. She better not watch the Simpson’s or pro Football. The Stillwater School Board called a meeting and by the end of the meeting, had her resignation.
OBAMAS AN ANTI-AMERICAN
October 2008: Bachmann appeared on MSNBC's "Hardball" with Chris Matthews. When talking about Obama's association with Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright, she stated “He and his wife, Michelle, held anti-American views and couldn't be trusted in the White House”. No one can forget the look on Chris’s face and imagined what he was thinking. Something like where did she buy the stuff she’s smoking and how much a lid.
BRILLIANT ECONOMIST
In another moment of brilliance on a conservative talk show host, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has once again embarrassed herself. Posted by the blog Dump Bachmann and the Minnesota progressive Project, the clip has the Minnesota Republican telling KLTK's Chris Baker that she opposes she stimulus because we're "running out of rich people in this country."
ANTI-AMERICAN CONGRESSMEN
As if that wasn’t enough, she even called for the major newspapers of the country to investigate other members of Congress to "find out if they are pro-America or anti-America." For the record, Bachmann defines "America" as "stars, bars, and white people." "I don't think it's geography. I think it's people who don't like America, who detest America." The reactions to her statements were overwhelmingly negative, with even Republicans distancing themselves from this crazy lady.
GAY RIGHTS
Fall 2003: Bachmann began her yearly assault on gay rights, proposing a constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex marriage. Fall 2004: In 2004, Bachmann and a coalition of religious leaders announced plans for what was billed as a "Minnesota for Marriage" rally. Thousands of people attended, holding signs that read, "Gays Should Not Be Married, Dontchya Know." It goes on and on.
Busy 2005 protest of her proposed constitutional ban of same-sex marriage, Bachmann and her cronies were spying on the rally. Bachmann has been on record saying that homosexuals specifically target children and that "our children...are the prize for this community."
BATHROOM ATTACK?
During a 2005 community meeting in Scandia, Minnesota, Bachmann was seen running out of a public bathroom crying, "I was being held against my will." In a report filed with the country sheriff, Bachmann claimed that two women "believed to be part of a LGBT group" detained her in the bathroom. She apparently was terrified and feared for her life.
The women in question claimed they were simply making conversation with their local Senator while waiting in line. The case was dismissed.
Surprisingly it is thought that Michele Bachmann's stepsister is a lesbian. October 2006, Minneapolis Star Tribune news reporter Pat Kessler quoted a story that whether Bachmann’s church that she belonged to taught that the Pope is the Anti-christ. Yet read on. Bachmann stated that her church "does not believe that the Pope is the Anti-Christ, that's absolutely false... I'm very grateful that my pastor has come out and been very clear on this matter, and I think it's patently absurd and it's a false statement."
But, research shows that the church in question is part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, whose doctrine teaches that the Roman Catholic papacy is the Antichrist identified in Scripture.
IRS VIOLATIONS IN HER CHURCH
Bachmann came under scrutiny by the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington for speaking at Living Word Christian Center. They filed a complaint with the IRS against senior pastor, Mac Hammond and took issue with Hammond's using church equipment and facilities to declare; "We can't publicly endorse as a church and would not for any candidate. But I can tell you personally that I'm going to vote for Michele Bachmann."
It was later reported that Hammond does not live in Bachmann's district and could not vote for her anyway. This was a violation of US tax law 501(c)(3) that says if a church wants to be exempt from paying taxes then "religious leaders cannot make partisan comments in official organization publications or at official church functions."
GOOD COMPANY
Notable Endorsers: Bachmann received support from a fundraising visit in early July 2006 from Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert. On July 21, 2006, Karl Rove visited Minnesota to raise funds for her election.
In August, President George W. Bush was the keynote speaker at her congressional fundraiser, which raised about $500,000. Bachmann also received fundraising support from the Chairman of Vice Dick Cheney.
Birds of a feather - The Wacky Bird Bachmann contributed to the "death panel” controversy when she read from a July 24 article written by Betsy McCaughey” from the floor of the House. Sarah Palin said that her "death panel" remark was inspired by what she called the "Orwellian" opinions of Ezekiel Emmanuel as described by Bachmann, who accused him of advocating health care rationing by age and disability.
According to PolitiFact and Time magazine, Bachmann's euthanasia claim distorted Emanuels statement. FactCheck.org asserted, "We agree that Emanuel’s meaning is being twisted." When many doctors wanted to legalize euthanasia or physician-assisted suicide, Emanuel opposed it.
QUESTION ASKED TO: MICHELE BACHMANN
If Republicans take the House in November, Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota says that “all we should do is issue subpoenas and have one hearing after another.” Speaking at the GOP Youth Convention on Thursday in Washington, she said she hopes to "expose all the nonsense that is going on.” Bachmann also warned the GOP, though, that if they do take power, they must stick to being the “constitutional conservatives” they portray themselves to be. “We have to make sure that we do what the people want us to do,” she said.
A spokesman for Bachmann said "investigating the administration for their mischief is a big priority," along with "repealing Obamacare, restoring the free markets and making sure we stop the spending spree."
Bachmann went on to claim that while prior to President Obama's election, "the private economy was 100 percent held in private hands," while "today 65 percent of the economy is now held in government's hands - either through direct ownership or control."
It's not clear where Bachmann got the 65 percent figure. She claimed on CBS' "Face the Nation" in March that the government owns or controls 51 percent of the US economy, which her communications director explained by combining an estimate from an economics professor of government ownership and "the passage of the health care bill, which makes up about 18 percent of the economy."
She claims she is against Medicare, Medicaid and big government but every year she takes farm subsidies, and her husband is receiving funds from medicaid for treating homosexuals with religious re thinking.
THE LADDER:
This woman is just another pretty mouth, with a vile attitude and a mixed sense of what this country is all about. Someone commented at times she makes the ayatollahs look good. She mentions nothing of doing work to help the middle class, create jobs, fix the economy, she just wants the mindset of our elected or populist officials.
She is dangerous, a born-againer who would make this country "The United States of Christianity", her version. She believes in no separation of Church and State. She contributes nothing to solving problems, she is not a team player, no skills, wouldn't know truth from fiction, truly a member of the party of NO. She was a supporter of the trash stories about "birthers", "deathers". What is she doing in Congress? Oh, she is one of the "bitchers"! She bitched her way in.
