Hmm...I see I’m not the only one who doesn’t care for the sniffling routine. :-)

Disgusting. I am thinking the press is almost as afraid of Bachmann as they are of Palin.

Yes, similar to the way they go after Palin, they will go after Bachmann or anybody who is independent of the Democrat-RINO-Media establishment.

Contrast that to how they kiss Chris Christie's fat behind.

Taking a page out of Sarah Palin's interview strategy book by hedging and misdirecting, then speaking about whatever topic she wanted (which was for the most part the $105 billion in health care reform appropriations), Bachmann avoided many of the questions put to her on "Meet The Press." It never stops.

She refuses to play the "state run media game" of idol worship of obozo.

RUN MICHELE RUN!!!

Agreed. Sarah had to do that with Pill O’Reilly as well (”don’t interrupt”). The front runner men in the repub party are girly men. How sad. Go Sarah! Go Michele!

Ok - what’s a “shluplehead”? It sounds like something I might want to add to my vocabulary, but I have to have a definition first. :^)

When Pelosi, Reid and Obama collaborated on this bill, they knew it would be totally partisan. They were afraid that in time, the republicans would control congress and defund OBAMACARE.
So they built into the Obamacare legislation the funding for the first eight years of the bill.

Normally and legally, bills can be passed, but funding is done on a year to year basis with the congress that is in session. That way there is oversight on the tax money collected and they can adjust inappropriate bills or kill them.

The three amigos, hid the $105 billion so that Obamacare can not be defunded. No one knew it because it was hidden in several places in the 2,900 page bill.

If they don’t get the $105 billion back now, then Obamacare can and will be funded without congressional oversight.
the money is already there. Get it??

Yes! Michelle B. must be doing a lot right. The leftists I know despise (fear?) Bachmann every bit as much as Palin these days. The mere mention of her name evokes the most outrageous responses from those fools............

They should be. She could destroy Obama in an election. She actually cares about the country and was not afraid to take on Pelosi head to head when she was the leader of the house. Nor is she afraid to call Obama, Reid and Pelosi out now in some VERY strong terms.

They may not seem like very strong words to most of us, but in congress, accusing someone who is further up the food chain than you a “fraud” is huge! She has brass alright ..
I think she is great

Im glad this news is getting out. I heard her a week ago speak of this urgently. The news commentator just wanted to find out about her competing with Palin et al and she skipped through the gossip and was speaking of this and how this news was not getting reported.

I agree with Bachmann. The times are urgent.

>Bachmann/West 2012!<

I’m really good with that.

And as much as I love Palin, I think that the media will burn her as they did in the last election. The GOP left her out to dry and they haven’t changed much since then. Like it or not, we have to get independent votes and they are swung by the media.

Bachmann they haven’t had the opportunity to trash. Though Matthews loves to call her a zombie. So neither of his two viewers will vote for her. But with this issue she can really turn the tables on Obama if she stays on point.

They will NEVER say anything bad about West. No matter what.
And that is good for us because he is a great man who loves the country.

Did not a Federal Judge declare the Law as a whole unconstitutional - does that not also invalidate the $105B hidden appropriation?

Remove it in the budget bill, and should they fell to remove it let the government shut down until such time that the Democrats agree to shut down this act of abomination.

It is better to have no Federal goverment then a repressive Federal Government. Its comparatively no big deal the Dems have overplayed their hand.

1.3 trillion dollar deficit and the Dems propose cutting less then 20, the republicans insult us with just 60. They need to cut 20 times more then their “unacceptably” high cuts.

I agree. Independent voters like Bachmann, so far.Trump or Christie. I believe when it comes down to the wire all will rally around whoever is sadly picked to beat Obama. We will all pray
it is not A ROMNEY. Sadly Independent voters never liked Palin. Don’t know why.

>Sadly Independent voters never liked Palin. Don’t know why.<

As I said, most independents get their ideas of who they are going to vote for from the MSM. They really don’t care if it is a republican or democrat - many don’t follow or follow so close that they think both are as bad as the other.

But they do listen to the MSM. No matter how much BS people like you and I may know that they peddle, it still leaves a big mark, especially on the independents.

I hate to say this, but the Media still has a lot of control over who is going to get elected and none of their “reporting” is real reporting anymore.
We just need to make sure that who ever gets the nod from the GOP can weather the media. Palin is hated by them and will once again go down in flames.

It is not like people pay attention to her accomplishments. Her intelligence or her capabilities. They believe the nonsense that comes out of the air heads that propped up Obama.
