Radio on the TV: Bachmann posse poses for cameras at MPR debate
Thursday, October 30, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Supporters of U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann rallied on a dead-end street outside Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) studios in St. Paul today, where the embattled member of Congress debated Democrat El Tinklenberg for 30 minutes (archived MnIndy liveblog here, archived MPR audio here). At his News Cut blog, MPR’s Bob Collins shows and tells scenes of political theater he judges unrivalled since the days of Gov. Jesse Ventura. The sign-wavers were there for Bachmann to meet and greet before the TV news crews, and a Bible-reading circle convened in MPR’s lobby — “presumably to protect Our Lady of HUAC from getting all contaminated by those evil secular humanist public radio people,” as one Daily Kos commenter put it.

These folks definitely do not have enough to do. If they were Real and True Americans, they would have been out somewhere working, perhaps for Joe the Plumber. But no! Instead, they were clogging the streets, protesting like a bunch of radial Lefties. The media, MPR included, should do a lengthy expose’ on these Bachmanians who apparently are unemployed and unmotivated to perform worthwhile work that would promote the American Way.
