How does a person like this get elected? And you wonder why people don’t vote. Felons in the senate morons in congress and people wonder why this country is in the position it in. Every one who runs for office of any kind senate congress etc. they all tell you what you want to hear then guess what when they get in they do whatever suits them. Win the top 1% of the weathest people have more that 50% of america something has to change. 20 years ago there were 15 billionaires in this country today there are 2,000 so this idea about spreading the weath. It another spin job. Maybe congresswoman Bachmann can work at Fox News.

Well, what do you expect? That’s all the Repukes campaign has been
about. Hatred, Bigotry, Racism, Smear Tactics and inciting dissention ..and she has the balls to call someone else “unamerican”. Amazing! She’s revolting.

I cannot believe that Rep Bachman thinks that Obama may have Anti American views. Her own favorite Palin’s husband was responsible for a Charles Manson comparison at a campaign rally, how unAmerican is that! I cannot believe that Rep Bachman is so blind! I heard her at her first speech about Palin, what does she think of her now!

I agree with so many of those who have already written. I was frightened as I listened to Congresswoman Bachmann on Hardball with Chris Matthews last night. Ms. Bachmann’s comments as well as the rest of the despicable rhetoric coming from the McCain-Palin campaign is dangerous. It only fuels fear, hate and bigotry in those that support them and listen to them. I really would appreciate if the Congresswoman, and those who think like her, would stop judging us and telling us who is worthy of being called patriotic and American and who is not.

If congresswoman Bachmann says there are anti-American characters serving in the U.S., then she must have a good idea who they are and, rather than vaguely allude to them, she should, as a patriotic duty, expose them ourtight. Also, she should provide us with a clear definition of what anti-Americanism is, so we can identify the traitors who hold such views and purge them from our midst, be they in academe, the news media, entertainment, religious organizations, business, sports, or even in neighborhoods and families, if necessary. The spirit of the great American patriot, Joe McCarthy, lives on in the person of congresswoman Bachmann.

Wake up Minnesota!

Rep. Michele Bachmann’s comments on Hardball were disgusting and divisive. She lied in her assertion that Obama has had CLOSE connections to terrorists or that he is somehow anti-American. This is a bold-faced smear tactic. The reason the press isn’t investigating her assertion is because it has ALREADY BEEN INVESTIGATED thoroughly. Obama associates himself with people like Warren Buffet, Joe Biden, Gen. Powell, etc. Are they anti-American? Should we hold trials to find out? How about we blacklist people? Bachmann’s ridiculous sentiments are dangerous and slanderous!

My husband and I are both Veterans, and we are supporting a “liberal” candidate…Obama. Shame on Bachmann for calling people anti-American because they don’t agree with her. Maybe she should spend a few days fighting in the military along side some “liberals” like me. When she sees a “liberal” offer their blood and life for their country, maybe she will get an education in what it means to be a true AMERICAN. I love my country with all my heart, I would not take calling anyone anti-American lightly. It is the ultimate insult. She needs to apologize and explain herself, at the very least.

I’m happy to give my hard-earned money to support El Tinklenberg.

God Bless America, land that we ALL love!

Deep in Minnesotans hearts, a rush of reality has awaken the spirit of what America stands for and what America has sustained by the likes of Backman like GOP clones. It is good this vile woman spoke up. God provides, and He has graced us with the blessing of knowing the evil that lurks not only in this woman’s heart but in the spirit of the GOP and McCain’s campaign.
Before this campaign none of us knew the REAL McCAIN; we do now.
Justifying the election of this woman is no longer debatable in terms of what she stands for and the contrast that the honorable Tinklenberg represents.
This is as clear as the Holy Spirit opening your eyes.
God bless America, go vote.

I was horrified by Bachman’s unhinged spiel on Hardball. We don’t elect Congresspeople in America to spout hateful propaganda. We don’t elect them so they can stare with creepily fixed smiles into cameras and lie their faces off. And we don’t elect them to shamelessly smear decent Americans’ reputations.

Please, Minnesota, use your vote wisely.

In addition to her repugnant interview on Hardball, Bachman blamed Blacks and minorities for the financial crisis during a Congressional hearing in September. That’s the same tactic used by neo-nazi hate groups who’ve been blaming Jewish people for the crisis. Why does she continue to be given a platform to spew her own hate group anti-Americanism?
