Tinklenberg: We raised $438,000 since 3 p.m. Friday

Wow, I guess I was not the only person screaming at the TV last night!

Bachmann is truly an unhinged, psychotic, maniac!

Holy shit.

Don’t worry El, we got your back. I’m from Los Angeles and I donated. We must realize that even though Bachmann represents her district directly, She also represents America, and I, Like many many others will not stand for her type of representation. A revolution is afoot, and she is about to be swept away with all the other cancer that has been killing our good country.

Democracy in action!

Dear Mr. Tinklenberg - I didn’t know your name until yesterday afternoon, and I too donated. Please, please be careful to use Bachmann’s own words against her, not the broad brush you applied. She did *not* say “everyone that disagrees with her is anti-American.” Don’t use my hard earned money by misquoting her insidious comments. Her comments were hateful, awful and she should be censured, but use them correctly. That is all that is needed. Welcome to your new job. Govern well.

I have never been SO moved SO quickly to donate to a political campaign in all my life as I was following the Bachmann interview on Chris Matthew’s Hardball ! I actually felt ill watching that insanely-dark-minded woman spewing forth her toxic scum ! How did she get elected in the first place ?? PLEASE Mr. Tinklenberg — kick her butt outta Congress FOREVER !!!! GOOD LUCK , GOOD SIR !!!

How cautious. Political Speak. Best of luck.

This is great news. It’s time for real Americans to stand up to the GOP hate machine. It’s time for real change!

Vote Obama/Franken/Tinklenberg

Republican Aubrey Immelman has announced a write in campaign!
Ain’t Democracy anti-anti American!!! Whoo Hooo!

Apparently Republican Aubrey Immelman ALSO watched Bachmann on Chris Matthews and decided early to give non-NeoCon MNO6/disallusioned Republicans a voice. He was going to wait until the end of the month and check polls trying to avoid being a spoiler. Gloves off now.

Send Aubrey Immelman some $love$.

Elwyn–We’re rooting for you in Madison, Wisconsin! I donated the night of the Bachmann interview.

Kick her sorry ass out of that seat!

Veterans from Virginia are rooting for El! I wish I could afford to contribute more to the campaign.

Bachmann has uttered the ultimate insult to those that don’t agree with her when she sez they are anti-American. Many “liberals” have died to defend our freedom and our country; she doesn’t understand what it means to be an American.

Her comments are not petty or isolated; Bachmann is a dangerous liar.

Elwyn - I saw your opponent on the Chris Matthews show on Friday afternoon and was horrified that a member of Congress would make such vile and divisive comments. I have donated what I can afford to your campaign and have forwarded a link to your website to all my Democratic friends requesting that they help as much as possible. It is imperative that you be elected and that crazy lunatic removed from office immediately!

DO NOT send money to Aubrey Immelman. He is like an ambulance chaser and just trying to sucker some cash out of desperate Republicans. Send it where it will make a true difference: Democrat El Tinklenberg.

Bachmann has been a total ass#1 ever since she’s been in office.
She and the Pit Bull are two of a kind. OMG these women are revolting.
But then what does one expect from the Repukes.

Go, El, goooooooo……..Let’s get rid of that disease that is Bachmann. Our country does not need people like her in office.

Bachmann is a lunatic, and I hope she loses.

But Tinlenberg’s assertion that he will create jobs on Main Street is risible.

Is he magic?

I am a Canadian living in Paris, Frnce. I cannot vote, yet I feel compelled to contribute to Mr.Tinlenberg’s cause. Here words ring like those in the Germany of 1933.

Good Lick Sir….

Ben

PS…I am sure that she will regret this “Faux Pas” for the rest of her life. “C’est La Vie”!

Michelle Bachmann took took the McCain/Palin tactics to their natural, logical conclusion (that Sen. Obama, and apparently anyone who supports him, is “anti-American” because of his very casual associations with people she and they deem Anti-American). Chris Matthews insisted she be specific about what the vague accusations mean, and she hung herself with her own rope. I suspect she will be dropped into the black hole that Carly Fiorinna is in presently. Nonetheless, she more overtly represented the conventional republican strategy that was born with Lee Atwater and Karl Rove. I, too, made a donation to your campaign (I live in Michigan) because I want this type of politics to die. We must vote Obama/Biden in with a landslide and mandate, and defeat candidates like Ms. Bachmann who blindly parrot McCarthy-esque rhetoric to “win.” No one wins in this type of environment.

A final note: please do use Ms. Bachmann’s video in your ads - her slimy performance spoke for itself. John Stewart does a wonderful job of letting people’s video make the case. Good luck!

I live in Oregon, and I donated as well.

Godspeed, El Train.

Everyone get out and vote, no matter where you live, or what you might face. McFailin’ supporters are now heckling voters in West Virginia, and voting machines are switching Democrat votes over to Republicans. Obama needs to take this election in a landslide, because the Repubs are setting up the MSM to contest the election.

VOTE NOW IF YOUR STATE ALLOWS IT!

We have mail-in voting here, and I’m delivering my entire family’s ballots for Obama to the drop-box today!

PS: Wherever possible, request a PAPER BALLOT! You can at most polling places!

This is definitely the first time I’ve contributed to a Congressional candidate in Minnesota! And I did it gladly. Godspeed, El!

I, too, was horrified when I saw that Hardball segment, and I immediately gave $25 to the Tinklenberg campaign.

Best of luck to you from San Francisco, Mr. Tinklenberg.

I also wish Mr. Tinklenberg the best of luck on November 4 and have added my small contribution to help fund that effort. Even though I’m on the other side of the country, I hope the voters in MN send a clear message to Ms. Bachmann about what America is REALLY about. Her brand of small-minded “litmus test” (agree with my agenda = pro-American, disagree = anti-American) is unacceptable in a large and diverse country, and she should be voted out of a job for the mistake of revealing so boldly what she really believes.

proof that all you sheeple will get what you deserve.

The democrats DESTROYED the economy with their community reinvestment act and Fannie mae.

I agree the republicans are pretty stupid in the way they are running their campaigns.
All they have to do is show VIDEO testimony of Barney (Franks not the dinasour), Maxine Waters, C Dodd and All members of the BLACK CAUCUS: who STOPPED BUSH and McCain in 2004,2005 of giving more power to the REGULATOR of Fannie Mae.

They Said there was NO EVIDENCE of TROUBLE, No SIGN OF DOOM. The DEmocrat Rymes who headed Fannie Mae said there was NO TROUBLE and they should extend the programs even further. HE SAID THERE WAS NO RISK!!!

McCain said the taxpayers will pay an extreme amount in the end and he was right.

While you blame WALL STREET- Fannie Mae and the ReinvestmetnACT forced them to write these LOANS. Projects were held hostage unless a portion, usually 25% of the UNITS, were made available to LOW INCOME PEOPLE.

You cannot legislate this and force it into a free market.

Fannie Mae, in 2004, was an organization totally out of control, a law unto itself. (OFHEO released similar findings on Freddie Mac, in December 2003.) But the seeds of its corruption were sown much earlier, back in 1992, at the start of America’s century-ending decade of greed, irresponsibility and self-delusion.

The first step was the making of fundamentally bad loans — loans that the lenders did not expect to be repaid. Why did they make those loans? Jimmy Carter’s Community Reinvestment Act — given new, racially-tainted teeth by the Clinton administration — and out-of-control GSEs (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) drove otherwise rational banks to lend money, on the basis of skin-color or the skin-color of the neighbors of prospective borrowers, to people who the banks knew couldn’t or wouldn’t repay. But the banks also knew (or thought) they wouldn’t be on the hook for long.

Banks made these loans because (a) the GSEs promised to buy them and (b) they were threatened by “community organizers” in communities where minorities were in the majority (logic-defying, I know — try living in Atlanta sometime) with lawsuits if they did not make the loans. The GSEs then repackaged these bad, racially-motivated loans — like tainted Chinese milk — for resale. The bad loans, in turn, drove more money into the home-buying market, making it appear as if homes were worth more than they really were. Over time, it grew into a mountain of excess.

But the bad motives in this massive fraud were not all race-related. Just as at Enron, Worldcom, Ahold and Adelphia, financial greed was a big driver. Greedy, foolish buyers of these mortgages and their derivatives (called CDOs and CDSs — this is a great article) should have known better.

Greed drove the GSEs, as well. As highlighted above, OFHEO investigators reported, in 2004, that Fannie Mae executives raked in millions of dollars by lying about Fannie’s the earnings-per-share on which their compensation was based.

This was in very deed a financial Worldcom or Adelphia, but with consequences for the entire world of finance. Executives of those companies are serving long prison terms for relatively harmless misbehavior. What about Franklin Raines? What about Rep. Maxine Waters who aided and abetted this scam and pitched a fit when it was uncovered? Taxpayers — busy with their day jobs — figured that Congress would look out for them. Not a good bet.

The truth is that many congressional representatives were alert and tried to warn the country to the fraud going on at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. However, those who were alert never controlled the microphone before it was too late. Others — like Nancy

Are you all CRAZY.

These are the people you are voting for.

I live in philadelphia, and I too have had it with these right wing nuts. I wish I could afford more. Now I am going to Al Frankins site and donating there. Best of Luck!

Give now to defeat this evil harpie Michelle Bachman!

I’m a conservtive and I contributed to EL TINKLENBERG because of Bachman’s comments. She doesn’t represent OUR America. She is an extremist!

Since learning of Ms. Bachmann’s comments I couldn’t help but contribute to the cause. I’ll be watching for your victory on November 4 from the great state of Montana.

I was very disturbed by your opponent’s remarks on TV. I think that Bachmann is a lunatic. I have sent you a campaign contribution to help you kick her ass out of congress.

Good luck and best wishes, Mr. Tinklenberg, from Long Island, New York.
