Oh, My! Michele Bachmann Oxygen Deprived...

[BoberFett]

I just moved into Bachmann's district recently. I'd be more than happy to help get rid of her.

She visited my company a while back, and the crazy bitch managed to turn what should have been a short congratulatory speech to our employees for being one of the fastest growing companies in the metro area into a diatribe against Democrats. Don't get me wrong, I'm not fan of Democrats, but this woman is off her rocker.

 

[Genx87]

Hey I will give her one thing. Last summer(June\July) she was talking on a local radio station about what she witnesses in the house in terms of what people think about deficit spending. She said democratic leadership was gearing up for a win in Nov and increases deficit spending north of 1 trillion.

Well while she may be a bit zealous that predicition came true.

 

[jackschmittusa]

Bachmann is just one of those far right attack dogs. Problem is she makes up her own material and looks ignorant and foolish when she spews it. I honestly believe she's not bright enough to realize how much of a nitwit she looks like to most people. She never has anything constructive to put forth.

I've worked with people like her. They lack the ability to raise their status and level of recognition by their own merits, and rely on demeaning and degrading others so their "relative" status seems improved.

Can't recall the name right now but the Rep for one of the Miami districts believes that animal husbandry is the science of men marrying animals.

So yes, these are our elected officials and yes, we are to blame.

 

[jonks]

Wow, she really needs to be Re-Educated

I can see this woman circa 20 years ago:

"Mercury is natural material! How dare these liberals want to remove mercury from thermometers! It is a natural element that occurs in earth! Look, I'm drinking mercury now! Nom nom nom! It's delicious!"

You ever seen the democrat rep from Jacksonville? OMFG the speech she did on the house floor after Florida won the national championship is epic. My cat has better grammar and thought process than that lady.

It was only a matter of time before the CDC discovered an outbreak of Michele Bachmann quotes.

Bachmann, speaking on Pajamas TV, noted: "I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970s that the swine flu broke out then under another Democrat president Jimmy Carter. And I'm not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it's an interesting coincidence."

The 1976 swine flu scare happened on Gerald Ford's watch.

We checked Wikipedia.

Ford was a Republican.


She and Palin need to team up for a run at the presidency sometime. The quotes we could get from them would be fantastic.

 

[CitizenKain]

Oh my, more:

Bachmann took to the House floor and paid tribute to the economic policies of Calvin Coolidge and the "Roaring 20s" (the era that ended with a massive monetary contraction and the Great Depression).One particular line really does stand out, though -- saying Franklin Roosevelt turned a recession into a depression through the "Hoot-Smalley" tariffs:

Here's what really happened: When Franklin Roosevelt took office, unemployment was already about 25%. And the tariff referred to here was actually the Smoot-Hawley bill, co-authored by Republicans Sen. Reed Smoot of Utah and Rep. Willis Hawley of Oregon, and signed into law by President Herbert Hoover.


Will the crazy factory in her head ever stop?

Do you happen to have a link to that? Stupid politicians are a good source of lulz.

Carbon dioxide forms approximately 0.04% of the Earth's atmosphere.

On her worst day she must be 2-3 times smarter than Barrack Hussein Obama.

Son, if it ain't Guiness it's not worth it.

PLANET KILLER! There's more CO2 in that Guiness than a whole case of soda!

It also produces some killer gas.

Not so nice if you are in a windshield but it would probably be worse if i turned my bum towards the fire.

But my point stands, sodas are useless, Guinness is the beverage of the gods.

I just farted. Does that count?

Only if you farted in the general direction of the Talibans.

All help is appreciated.

If that is the case i wonder how you even got on the internet, did your mum set you up an account and if so, is she typing what your retarded arse is trying to say?

 

[jonks]

With all this ammo for negative ads she's gotta be representing a very interesting district to get re-elected in '10.

Virgina Foxx is also in the running of completely stupid things to say:

""Republican Rep. Virginia Foxx said during debate in the House that the 1998 death of Matthew Shepard shouldn't be used to justify a hate crimes bill because it wasn't a hate crime. Foxx said Shepard was killed during a robbery.

The bill approved Wednesday by the House would expand a federal hate crimes law to include acts motivated by sexual orientation.

"We know that young man was killed in the commitment of a robbery. It wasn't because he was gay," Foxx said during debate. "The bill was named for him, the hate-crimes bill was named for him, but it's really a hoax that continues to be used as an excuse for passing these bills.""

Talk about throwing any shred of credibility out the window with an asinine statement like that. Not that you had much left though....

If she's correct I don't see a problem with her remarks, nor why they are upsetting to some.

You do realize that one of the defendants' alibis was that they killed him in a panic because he came on to one of them, right?

Too long ago, I don't recall any details nor claim to know the 'real story'.

But I have read elsewhere that anti-homosexual beliefs were not the real motive, that it was just a robbery motive.

But IDK, nor do I think it really has anything important to do with the issue ('hate crime' legislation). At least not to me, any one incidence is pretty much irrelevent to the bigger picture/debate IMO.

Do you think I'm too conservative and the number should be higher?

Gosh oh gee willikers, Fern. You, might want to try flogging your memory by searching Google for "Virginia Foxx" "Matthew Sheppard"

It works better if you do it before you post in ignorance.
