Bachmann: Fight health care reform ‘every day when you take your vitamins’

Calling Congress every day sounds a bit like harrassment, but if that’s what Michele wants, that’s what she should get:

Michele Bachmann’s offices:
Washington DC: 202.225.2331
Woodbury: 651.731.5400
St. Cloud: 320.253.5931

The most ridiculous statement is “I have to raise $4 million to come back here. It’s a huge hill to climb, but it’s very possible.”
I say it is time for all Americans to stop this truly wasteful spending by both the Democrats and Republicans. I will never agree with anyone who buys into this ridiculous spending of other peoples money for a 2 year position in Congress.I thought Congresswoman Bachmann claimed to be a fiscal conservative.

“These people are not connected to reality, . . .” Is any sane person listening to this woman?

C. Steller appears to be an excellent stenographer. Please consider providing some fact-checking statements, instead of merely reproducing a transcript. Note, this might require some actual research.

Lets make all the federal workers and Eva Braun here get their health insurance through this new non profit they are talking about.

P.Wemmler: That’s the lamest criticism. Had C. Steller not taken the time to listen in on a call that few people even knew about you’d have no place to lodge your complaint. I’m glad he shared Bachmann’s bizarre pearls of wisdom.

Michele Bachmann’s construction of reality is so different than the one i think i experience …. whew!

Unfortunately, her commentary sounds very much like a sermon by an over emphatic preacher highlighting personal ideals rather than a statement of real action or real improvement for constituents. Discussion of slavery and socialism isn’t about how to serve the public, its about obstructing change that is happening. If you don’t like the change, offer an alternative instead, but don’t simply fight to stop change.

Which of these statements is not like the others?

You can’t drink yourself sober.

You can’t eat yourself thin.

You can’t invest money to make money.

Michelle, forget about the vitamins, please take your anti-psychotics each morning. Contrary to your delusions, a majority of Americans (70%) think you are nuts… and you are. Please quit making women look like hysterical nutcases.

as you do unto the least of my brethren, you do likewise unto mr

bear not false witness against thy neighbor

judge not, lest you be judged yourself, and found wanting

prey not over much in public, where you may be seen, lest you lose your reward in heaven

in which reality exactly are these un christian people heroes ???

Michele Bachmann is absolutely correct. She is not only bold & beautiful, she is also brilliant.

What an unbelievable moron.

Does she walk into mirrors because she thinks it’s the entrance to another room?

Michele Bachmann is so isolated from reality. She’s hardly in the right state of mind, so why should i or anyone with common sense listen to her?

[...] favorite little fuzzball from Minnesota is at it again… U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann urged her supporters to fight health care reform by calling [...]

You Minnesotans must be so proud.

Carleton West,

Thank you so much for that brilliant little piece of sarcasm. I have been chuckling for a couple of hours and had to come back and thank you for making me laugh.

How is it that Michelle Bachmann can get a majority of voters in her district to elect her every two years? Do they even read what she says? Is there something in the water up there or what?

Michelle is absolutely wrong… She isn’t public enemy number anything to Nancy Pelosi. Democrats would be better served to keep her right where she is. Every soundbite is pure gold.

“How is it that Michelle Bachmann can get a majority of voters in her district to elect her every two years?”

Gerrymandering. You draw a long, meandering line around as much of the conservative electorate as possible. Republican strength in other districts is diminished – but her district becomes an absolutely safe seat, with no need for any concessions to centrist views.

Chris Stellar, the duly self-appointed Bachmanator…

People who read this rag are really quite stupid, even those with “educations”.

Bachmann is trying to save us from being enslaved by corporate/governmental interests, which are contrary to the constitution and bill of rights.

Since when should we become a communitarian/communist society?

Are we not free willed Americans? Can we not disagree without the diatribe of dirt found in blogs such as Stellars Stump here?

Remember, dear patrons of the rag Minnesota Much-Less Than Independent left wing communist manifesto, that unless we believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we do not believe in it at all.

But on that canard, reading the insulting diatribe printed in this comments section, like draws like.

I merely come here to bring the light of reason to a darker, dimmer world.

And please, leave religion out of the argument. Hasn’t religion ruined enough without considering this rag paper?

Hey Chris, wanna tell us all what really happened when Obama won the Nobel yet escalated the war?

Where are the anti-war dems on that issue???

Leave Michelle Bachmann to her constituency, and try a bit harder to promote yours by naming this rag the Minnesota Minority Report? The independent..well that name leans to true independence, which you are NOT…

Hey ZNOFOB do you just cut and paste GOP talking points or do you actually believe what you write? I suggest you find someone who actually has lived in a Communist dictatorship and ask them to compare that experience to life in these United States. I imagine they will think you are sadly naive or disingenuous to compare the two favorably.

If you would watch something besides Fox news you might realize that anti-war demonstration are going on all around you. There was one at the U just yesterday. Liberals do not buy everything that comes out of this administration unlike you Conservatives who worshiped GW. We progressives don’t have problems debating with intelligent Conservatives, the few that there are, but we do have a problem with morons like Bachmann and Palin. “Not all Conservatives are stupid, but most stupid people are Conservative.” John Stuart Mill

Damn, she worked out our plan, to delay and delay until health care dragged out to Christmas.

Oh wait, it’s conservatives who delayed and delayed. The Glenn Beck souvenir tin foil hat must have been on too tight.

Funny, Mike. I am not a GW supporter, he destroyed what few shreds of freedom we did have. I didn’t vote for him, either, just in case you wonder.

I am totally anti-war, which is why I wonder about Obama et al. Who, btw, I DID vote for, for CHANGE, not SAME.

When is the horror of the Bush administration and era of unending war going to be repaired?

You think that I am a conservative or a rethuglican? Think again…you are way off.

I like the constitution and Bill of Rights, and that about sums it up. I believe the ideas and words are more powerful than the cadre bent upon world domination and eugenics, carbon taxes, and total control.

And yes, I DO BELIEVE what I write. Deeply, passionately, and I am not alone in my beliefs.

He calls this story a “dialog of dirt”?

A. ZNOFOB didn’t actually read the story, or else would be too embarrassed to try to defend it.
B. Can’t find anything to criticize about it except for where it appears.
C. Finds it necessary to directly insult the other posters
D. Finds it necessary to insult the author for nothing more than sharing the “jewels of wisdom” that occasionally fall out of MB’s mouth.

This is good for a laugh: “Bachmann is trying to save us from being enslaved by corporate/governmental interests, which are contrary to the constitution and bill of rights.”

The crap that comes out of her mouth is the gift that keeps on giving. Her fellow republicans seem to agree, and wish she would shut up. I almost wish there was not a serious challenger for her seat.

Yeah, you betcha.

Because you’re old.

Michele Bachmann misrepresents reality. Here’s a link to her statements – labelled “pants on fire” by fact-checkers – at the end of October, where she misrepresents health care reform:

http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2009/nov/03/michele-bachmann/michele-bachmann-claims-page-92-prohibits-private-/

znofob

Michele Bachmann’s position to oppose Democratic proposals for health care reform actually are exactly what corporate American health insurance companies desire

if you think she’s anti-corporate, you’re just wrong

IIRC, one of Bachmann’s sons recently joined one of those socialist programs that was expanded with stimulus funding (I think it was Americorps.) I do recall that when an article was written congratulating Bachmann for her son’s accomplishment, she went off and attacked the writer, saying something like it was an attack on her family when it really was an acknowledgment of her son’s achievements. She turned praise into something ugly and negative.

I really don’t understand someone who says she’s a “Christian” having such a negative attitude toward the poor and unfortunate. The following from the Good News Bible/ Today’s English Version tells true Christians how God feels about the poor:

Proverbs 14:31
If you oppress poor people, you insult the God who made them; but kindness shown to the poor is an act of worship.

Why is Ms. Bachmann ignoring the teachings of the God she says she worships? And why are her supporters helping her defy God’s teachings?

The dirt is in the mouths of the nasty hearted commentors after the story. It is a diatribe against a way of life and a way of being that is mature and responsible.

Unlike groupthink.

And ZNOFOB him/her/itself is here because … ?

TR asked “Does she walk into mirrors because she thinks it’s the entrance to another room?”

No, TR, I don’t believe she does, but I’ll bet if there’s a mirror in the room she goes and pecks at it, completely forgetting about everything else. Just an educated guess, there.

How is it that Michelle Bachmann can get a majority of voters in her district to elect her every two years? Do they even read what she says? Is there something in the water up there or what?

She has never won with a majority of voters in her district. Get your facts straight before you malign the majority of voters in her district who voted AGAINST her in two elections.

Its interesting and good to see that roughly 95% to 98% of the people leaving comments here also think Bachman doesn’t have all of her bolts tightened down. I used to work with someone who had been on her staff right after she was first elected. This was before I really knew anything about her. My co worker said back then that she had a reality issue.

I think its funny that Backman rails on about us becoming “slaves’ to the system when she is really part of the system. Just another corporate shill.

I take that back, actually 95% to 98% of the people posting are filtered through a commentator. biggovernment.com When the people don’t say the right thing, it gets deleted. My mistake. biggovernment.com tells me about how this healthcare reform is really a product to produce another step of socialism. This message will self destruct in 5, 4, 3, 2, bye.

ZNOFOB: Do you mean xenophobe? The tagline fits.

I live in Bachmann’s district, unfortunately. It causes me to look around at my fellow citizens and wonder who voted for her. Because I certainly did not!

BTW she’s only won one reelection. One too many.

But hey, she’s quite the poster child for why people should not vote Republican.

I think that there’s a lot of other right wing whackos out there in office that think the same way but somehow keep the worst of it out of the media.

I think they are really more dangerous, and as long as Rep. Bachmann is in the minority she is doing me, and the rest of the people that think she and her ilk are dangerous to anything our society should be (free, mostly), a really, really big favor with the frequent media attention.

Thanks you, MNIndy, for helping with this.

Michelle – Why not just say it? You want the destruction of the United States government as it is know today in 2010. You and your kind want power. Pure Power. Over everyone else. A theocracy. The American Taliban. See..Michelle..that wasn’t so hard.

Skip the B.S. Michelle. …now I’ll rest my head with some light reading…Ann Coulter and her dreams of genicide.

Get your head out of the sand. We need reform. You and your comrades don’t under stand. Never will. Michelle and the Busb Adm. are all alike. It’s
time she sees it clear like the reat of us. She can’t ride on Bush’s strings any longer. Send her home with NO say. Ms. Palin can’t help you, give it up. Let someone, with an outlook of the future take the lead. Michelle kissing G. Buch days are over. GIVE IT UP. Your road stops here.

Hold the phone I think another Idiot is running for president!!!
