Wow, you people are pathetic. Listen to her message about the dangerous path we are heading down, don’t be caught up on her religion. Even those who are not religious agree we are leaving our founding roots toward “progressivism” (aka socialism, aka communism). Do you like freedom or don’t you? If limited government and greater freedoms are a problem for you, if valuing life is outdated, if keeping our virtue as a society who helps and loves their neighbor is old fashioned, go find a socialist nation that will make you happy, and leave the rest of us alone. You’re outnumbered, trust me.

[...] So Bachmann is one of THOSE people. Are we surprised? Isn’t this the same Michele Bachmann who called President Obama Anti-American last year? Is this the same Michele Bachmann who thinks the census is going to be used to throw us all on concentration camps? The same Michele Bachmann who was personally instructed by god to run for congress?

The really frightening thing about the religious nutbars that keep surfacing in the U.S. is that like Michele Bachmann they are able to get themselves reelected!
Reading the book by American writer Chris Hedges, “American Fascists”, in which he explains the history of the rise of the Christian Right in the U.S. one is left with a cold feeling in their guts as to what the future holds for America, and the rest of the world.
The comments made by Sarah Palin during the recent presidential election which reflect her fundamentalist beliefs show a tremendous amount of ignorance concerning the real world.These people refuse to even accept the existence of global warming as a concept, and are content to sit back and wait for the end of the world, in a biblical sense I guess, wait for the Rapture when all the Christian believers will be transported to stand before the Throne! The rest of us will be left out in the cold.
Oh America, you could be so much more. Laurie Logan

I’ve wondered how she got reelected; maybe this video gives the answer: A vote for Michele is a vote for God. A claim of Christian values and some “Rah, Rah, God” trumps all other considerations.
But I’m not entirely disappointed – Michele has been, and I expect will continue to be, a valuable source of entertainment.
Note to staff: I think LIFO sequencing of comments would be better.

What a retard. Sadly, this woman is not an exception, she is representative of what religionists actually think reality is.

When is the US going to separate itself from the Third World, and join the Modern World in regards to religion? Have your belief in a higher power if you must, but this “Yahweh micromanages my life” nonsense is not only primitive and infantile, it’s incredibly arrogant.
