Joan Walsh: "A Lot Is Not Known" About Bachmann's Foster Children (video)

Salon.com editor-at-large Joan Walsh says a lot is just "not known" about GOP presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann. Walsh must not read her own website because a simple search of their archives and a broader search on Google of Salon.com and Bachmann yields a lot of results. A lot.

"She's [Bachmann] trying to make this -- and they're all trying to make this about the economy. So they're thinking that's going to be the club which to batter President Obama [with]," Salon.com editor Joan Walsh said.

"You know, the more people dig into her background, her foster kids, there's just a lot that is not known about her," Walsh continued.

No good deed (of a republican) goes unpunished.

I’m not real concerned about her foster kids, her biological kids, or her husband.

I’m not sure what a Salon.com is, but I doubt I’d want to get a haircut there.

What happened to Hobama’s pronoucement that “the children are off limits?”

Let’s attack Bachmann’s foster kids, there must be something there to make fun of. There must be one of them who went on to prison. There must be at least one of them who robbed a bank or killed a baby bird. One of them surely failed a class in school or stepped on a crack in the sidewalk.

Let’s get ‘em. Who’s with me?

The other day, as a joke, someone said it was only a matter of time before the hatemongers began to "investigate" her foster children. I tell ya.

And a lot less is known about O'Bambi ... his academic records ... his medical records ... his birthplace... anything

But what the heck, he's only the President - why should we obsess about these piddling details.
But 20 year old DUI charges against members of the Palin family, Joe the Plumber's financial records, or detailed history of Bachmann's foster children -- by golly, we better get out the fine-toothed comb...

As if foster children don't have enough to deal with and issues of their own, the left will now try to track them down and get them to say something bad about Bachman. She could be a saint, but if you have 23 foster kids one if them will have an “issue” with her. Just leave these now adult foster kids alone!

Salon.com editor-at-large Joan Walsh says a lot is just "not known" about GOP presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann. Walsh must not read her own website because a simple search of their archives and a broader search on Google of Salon.com and Bachmann yields a lot of results. A lot.

A lot isn't known about Obama's earlier life. Will they be investigating him?

"She's [Bachmann] trying to make this -- and they're all trying to make this about the economy. So they're thinking that's going to be the club which to batter President Obama [with]," Salon.com editor Joan Walsh said.

Heaven forbid! Trying to win an election on a fake issue like the economy! As opposed to ... to ... Bachmann's foster children ... or whatever the real issues are ...

here must be one of them who went on to prison.

One of our local judges has taken in lots of foster kids and adopted 9 of them over the years. One of them has gone to prison and his enemies act like that's a legitimate weapon to use against him.

Crip, you gotta figure that a lot of those kids are troubled by major issues. In spite of the very best intentions and attempts by a foster parent, some of them will still go bad. What about that guy who hacked Palin’s email account, his real daddy was a Tennessee state Democrat representative. Haven’t heard much about that lately.

Let’s blame the parent (only if they have an “R” next to their name, of course).

"You know, the more people dig into her background, her foster kids, there's just a lot that is not known about her," Walsh continued.

There is nothing known about Obama, even today. You can bet that if any of her foster children are vulnerable to attack in any way the media will savage them brutally.
They are the Obama media.

I have a question, does she hire nannies to take care of the children or does her husband take care of them?

Just wondering because that is a lot of kids under one roof.

I’m not a fan of messing with anyone’s family adult or child. You’ll never hear me utter a word about anyone’s family unless that family member goes out of their way to draw attention.

I hear Joan Walsh's daughter Nora was born with a tale.

You should be concerned - I’m certain she must have been a foster Mom to Casey Anthony at some time during the past 25 years!!!
