Does she ever go after Romney, or just the other frontrunners?

Her campaign certainly hasn’t gone anywhere.

HOORAY Michele!

Newt Gingrich is the smartest con-man in any room he enters.

Freddie Mac Loses $4.4B in Third Quarter, Requests $6B More From Treasury

AP via Fox News ^ | November 03, 2011 | Associated Press

Government-controlled mortgage giant Freddie Mac has requested $6 billion in additional aid after posting a wider loss in the third quarter.

Freddie Mac said Thursday that it lost $4.4 billion, or $1.86 per share, in the July-September quarter. That compares with a loss of $4.1 billion, or $1.25 a share, in the same quarter of 2010.

This quarter's $6 billion request from taxpayers is the largest since April 2010.

"Whether former Speaker Gingrich made $300,000 or whether he made $2 million, the point is that he took money to also influence senior Republicans to be favorable toward Fannie and Freddie," Bachmann said after a campaign event in Webster City, Iowa.

Michele never twists the truth, she is spot on however Newt is the king of speak and will make the inappropriate appropriate through speak.

"Bachmann: Gingrich was paid to 'influence' Republicans for Freddie Mac"

Let's be even more specific!

"Bachmann: Gingrich was paid to 'influence' Republicans for Freddie Mac on Behalf of the Democratic Party and the Democrat dominated Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac!"

“She is correct, go for it lady, they would do it to you.”

Gingrich will have to answer these questions, but it won't help Bachmann any. Michele wrecked her campaign with her screeching over reaction to the HPV thing, and it is pretty clear Republican primary voters do not consider her presidential.

Also, Ron Paul will not be the nominee.

New has already admitted taking nearly 2 million, and you think it was for history lessons, I have a very exclusive bridge stock you may have an interest in, you may triple your money in six months, and it is guaranteed by bernie madoff.

I like Michelle but she seems unwilling to learn. Reagan’s 11th commandment. There are many reasons why Newt is rising in the polls. Going after the real enemy, Obama, instead of the friendlies is one of them. Michelle, you’re marginalizing yourself even further. Sad what’s happened to you. I had great hopes.

Reagan’s 11th commandment.

That only applies to Republicans.

Going after the real enemy, Obama

As opposed to what? A fake enemy?

An enemy is an enemy is an enemy.

instead of the friendlies

Neither Mitt nor Newt are your friends.

In fact, like most Beltway insiders, they look down on FReepers as provincial cretins.

I have been reading the FR threads for years so I know a thing or two about the facts and the fiction from what is opined here. I would like to remind everyone that if you are busy degrading Newt or Cain or any of the other candidates you are not focused on center mass! Obama is where the media should be getting their news but they choose to feed the weak minded everything but. All of us should realize this. Don't be a pawn in the mindless exercise of repetition. The objective is to remove the amateur from the White House!
