Video HERE. Please only watch it if you don't mind seeing Chris Matthews COMPLETELY DESTROYED by Republican Representative Michelle Bachmann.
bump to view at home...
must see later bump
The way it is being spun at home, this could cost her.
The propagandist Matthews tried mightily to get her to say something that could be used as a sound bite against both her and McCain and she didn’t bite.
Correct. Matthews tried over and over to sandbag her.
FAIL
It just pains me to watch Matthews. Is there anyone, other than his good pal Obermann, more in the tank for Obama? People speculate their rivalry is over getting the Russert gig on MTP, but I think it’s trying to outdo each other on their adulation of Obama and trashing to the GOP.
Bump for later viewing.
bump to watch later
Exactly. He was trying to do that from a number of angles and she didn’t fall for any of them.
We can’t watch videos here at work, but did she go back on Hardball?
You see what Chris Matthews is doing in that interview. Matthews NEVER lets a guest talk as much as he lets Bachmann talks. It’s because Matthews thinks the more she talks, the more ‘extreme’ she’ll seem.
But in fact, the more she talks, the more Americans think to themselves ‘Ya exactly! Go get em’.
If, hypothetically, Matthews was hanging around bin laden and associating with him he should be investigated by the FBI. I would expect the same to be true of omabination hanging around Ayers.
Mrs. Bachmann is entirely correct.
GIVE TIL IT HURTS!!

They are coming after her for this, they have raised 2 million since this interview.
Dont let the anti-americans take her down, she works very hard on the House floor, is a good conservative, has 4 children, married 30 years, has own business, has fostered 23 children.
Please give!!
I love it when people give Matthews some of his own technique .... bash back!
VAH ping.
I would suggest “leftwingers”.
I agree with that totally. My first impression was that I'd never seen Matthews so quiet. Matthews' attempt at conflating liberals with anti-Americans was a bit foolish. She wasn't doing that. She just said that three obviously anti-American people were associated with the most liberal senator in the country.
The term liberal has typically frightened Americans, which is a bit weird since all western democracies are considered liberal. However, we have a congress led by two scary liberals with an approval rating of around 9% and the country is on the verge of strengthening that position.
Go figure!
I was in DC last week and while at the Gaylord Hotel in National Harbor, MD spotted Matthews speaking to a room full of lefties. His big nauseating mouth was dicing McCain as usual. Felt like asking for a full refund from the hotel for not posting a warning sign before entering the area and hearing his goofy self.
National Harbor’s becoming quite the ‘in’ spot ... how did you like it otherwise? I’ve driven past on the Beltway but not been inside.

She was just telling the media to do their job & Chrissy did what he thinks his job is—shill for Obammy.
Wow! How did she get elected in Minnesota??? She is awesome!! I hate Chrissy and love seeing him get his but kicked.
My only suggestion is that we stop calling these people liberals.
I disagree. Liberals are anti-American. It is true that the meaning of words changes over time. Most people who call themselves conservatives would have been called liberals during the nineteenth century.
But those aren’t what liberals are today in America. Liberals today believe in government intervention in our economic and political lives. They want to ‘spread the wealth.’ as Obama said. They want to enforce the fairness doctrine on talk radio to limit the power of Rush and other conservative commentators.
There is no real difference between a liberal today and a socialist. They are all evil and will bring about the destruction of the America we know it if they ever take power.
National Harbors becoming quite the in spot ... how did you like it otherwise? Ive driven past on the Beltway but not been inside.

It will be a great place when everything is completed. We thought we could stay there and walk the area to stores and a variety of places to eat. NOT! Most buildings are vacant so we spent most free time water taxing to Alexandria. LOVE Joe Thiesmans (sp??) . . . ate there 3 times.
In the newsclips I heard of this interview, she kept using the words “they need to do an expose’”, and I wish she’d said “in-depth, unbiased investigation”. To me, the word “expose’” has a less than professional connotation and brings to mind the tabloids.
Glad you enjoyed your stay in these parts. Old Town Alexandria is my fav part of this region. Other than parking, that is, so water taxi sounds very good.
It will be interesting to see how the Natl Harbor works out ... it will either raise the quality of the nearby environment in PG County, or all that investment goes down the tubes if it takes on a PG flavor. Of course, I remember when Old Town was a dilapidated area, so there’s hope.
She NEEDS our support so come on folks! Bill Bennett just said that if all his listeners gave just $25 she would have a chance to win the election against her opponent who is getting full support from the DNC, Polosi,Obmama and media!
Lets all help Michelle in any way we can! Please go to MichelleBachmann.com and give what you can. Thanks!
She’s definately going to need the help.
The national GOP’s decided to throw her under the bus. They’ve canceled the local ad buys that they had scheduled for her.
And that’s the last straw. From here on out, I’ll support specific candidates directly, but the party never, ever, ever gets one more cent from me.

I told the national RNC long ago that I only support individual candidates who are real conservatives so they get NO MONEY from me! The RNC threw Katherin Harris under the bus too or she would have been elected here in FL.
Another great conservative who happened to be a woman!
GO SARAH!!
