This is extremely disturbing!!!! Those who are looking for any reason for civil unrest (such as the RT wing-nuts and their “Queen of the Crazy People” none other than Michele Bachman, now have their free pass and permission from this nutburger, to act on thier much less than intellectual anger, to lock and load! This woman needs to be arrested and tried for terroristic threats and treason! This is very serious!

Treason: *a crime that undermines the offender’s government
*disloyalty by virtue of subversive behavior
*treachery:an act of deliberate betrayal

Ole girl just doesn’t haven’t on too tight! The GOP leadership better get the mental midgets with big ego’s and mouths, in check or the party will go even lower in the polls and lose more members. This is not the GOP’s finest hour. It is so sad!

I thought the election of Stuart Smiley and Jesse the Body were jokes. Wow you folks are f@34ed up on the northern plains. I was just checking out different online papers to see what folks from other parts of the world’s greatest country were saying, and you all are whack! I was looking for more info on Ms. Bachmann after seeing her school that tool Geitner today on CNBC. She rocks; she can come down to Colorado and replace these morons we have running our state!

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

Them as has guns may not use them, but they know they got them. Which gives them a tad more confidence in proposing and insisting on the rightness of their ideas, no matter how zany.

This country was at its most progressive just after WW2, when the average liberal survivor of the Great Depression and the World War was comfortable with the idea of being organized, armed, and ready to deal with violent nutcases in a civil and constitutional manner. But they got tired and distracted. And then television came along…

Unable to mount a rational defense of most of their cherished beliefs, the crazy righties have pulled an old bog corpse out of the swamp–red baiting. It’s all the more absurd in light of Obama’s centrist liberalism. No matter. Put on the conserva-goggles and suddenly the utterly mundane and reasonable public policy tool of taxation transforms Obama into a Manchurian Marxist who hopes to eventually land Venezuelan troops in DC in order to grab all the guns and Bibles, set up soviet councils in executive suites, make sure evolution is taught in the schools, and that the Anti-Christ will be empowered to fight Jesus on His return.

What a shame on the district that elects this bathouse fruitcake to office.

As a part of my continuing efforts to look for the good in everyone, I will have to give her credit for not outright denying what she said, as she has in the past.

Oh, and since I know that the MinIndie is proud of its commitment to accuracy: we don’t have “conceal-carry” permits here. Pinky swear.
