Bachmann’s response was not personal. It was not a response to some struggle over a leadership position.
If Bachmann had been given a commitee chairmanship, she still would have given a tea party response to the SOTU because it’s what she does and has been doing all along.
Indeed. Michele Bachnmann has been giving her time, attention, and voice, to the concerns of conservative voters since before the "birth" of the tea party movement. And she was the perfect voice for the Tea Party Express's rebuttal to BO's SOTU speech.
There is no problem here. The media is trying to cause trouble, and some folks in DC are falling for it.
Screw the democrats, screw the media, and screw the RINOS; we are trying to save our country.
