How to get a conservative to say “I’m sorry”: put your gripe on video. It worked for U.S. Rep. Steve Israel with his Minnesota counterpart, Michele Bachmann, and for cable host Jon Stewart with his opposite at Fox, Sean Hannity.

When U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann appeared on Sean Hannity’s Fox News TV show to celebrate her anti-health care reform rally, she said it had drawn as many as 45,000 — a figure almost everyone else put at 10,000. Then Hannity showed video that began with scenes of Bachmann’s Thursday rally under a clear fall [...]

Gov. Pawlenty continued his joke-recycling program Tuesday by telling Fox News’ Sean Hannity that having the government watch your money is like having Michael Vick watch your dog for the weekend.

“Minnesota Representative and free-range cougar” Michele Bachmann got prominent play on The Daily Show last night as a key example of conservatives “speaking crazy to power.” At 2:50 into the clip (below), host Jon Stewart plays Bachmann’s recent comments that an expansion of the AmeriCorps program might lead to PC “re-education camps.”

“It’s difficult for us to even keep up with it day to day.”
That’s not a quote from a flabbergasted reporter trying to relay Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann’s never-ending series of staggering statements to a waiting world. It’s the “foreign correspondent” herself on Sean Hannity’s radio program on Wednesday:
