Being from Minnesota is normally something I would be proud of. The land of Prince, A Prairie Home Companion and the Mall Of America (not to mention Al Franken) is a great state, which makes it even more frustrating to have to put up with the likes of Michele Bachmann.
I'm really tired of trying to explain to friends from other states how Michele Bachmann could be elected in the same state that elected Keith Ellison and Paul Wellstone. My brain hurts just thinking about it.
This is my everlasting rant to the world hoping that Michele Bachmann might listen to me if she ever shuts her big mouth and stops talking for once. Unfortunately, it's a hopeless cause because she's genetically incapable of shutting her f'ing mouth. I'm sick and tired of seeing Michele Bachmann's batshit-crazy face on my television every night. If it's not Countdown's "Worst Person In the World," it's Ed Schultz with his "Psycho Talk," and every other national political show. I'm tired of it...2010 can not come soon enough!!
It's time to call her out and say "SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
Poll and action item at the end of the diary...
I've waited until her most recent embarrassing statement to post this diary, and I didn't have to wait long.
Her most recent crazieness:
And from The Minnesota Independent:
Last weekend my family sat down and we were watching the commercial movie "Titanic." And as I was listening to Dr. Burgess from Texas talk about the debt and the burgeoning debt load that the United States takes, once the ice gash came in the side of the Titanic, which we all remember was called the "unsinkable Titanic," we think of the United States. Nothing can possibly sink the United States. We will always be a superpower. But one thing that has kept us a superpower has been freedom, free market economists. We are in the process of watching the deconstruction of free market economists before our very eyes, something we have never seen. But as the ice ripped that hole in the Titanic, water started being taken on, and the engineer came out and brought the blueprint of the Titanic. Water came into the first chamber, spilled over to the second, spilled over to the third, and by the time it filled up so many chambers, it was over. It was impossible to resurrect that ship.
"free market economists"??? WTF?
Some of her greatest hits:
An oldie but goodie...bigotry at its best
And who can forget this McCarthy impression?
Wow, I really think she believes this stuff...
Even the local press laughs at her...
HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!
Yeah, she's sometimes funny and clueless, but we deserve better in the US House.
Believe it or not, Michele Bachmann is an embarrassment to a lot of the people in her district, but because of gerrymandering she keeps on winning elections. The good news is that she almost lost in 2008, and if we start now we can beat her in 2010. I ask that you please make a pledge now to defeat her next year by supporting her opponant as you are able.
She is vulnerable and we can win!!
