>> Bachmann is not crazy. She is conservative. Many Freepers, however, seem to want to panic when a true conservative is presented to them. >>
I’m not sure what is more embarrassing about that post you just made. Is it your self righteous arrogance or your total lack of perspective or your disdain for opening your mind to some reading comprehension? Or is it that you are being a sore loser?
I’ve seen, what, maybe a thousand posts on this board lately where many people express what their problem with MB is: And it’s NOT her conservatism. It’s her off putting catty style and her kindergarten teacher smarmy delivery and her willingness to use exaggeration and an intentional lack of context in order to attack other’s running - all in a petty attempt to make herself look good by making others look bad.
Or, perhaps they understand that a short term person from congress just doesn’t have the heft for the top office in the land.
Meanwhile, those who like MB’s ideology are finding other qualities in some other folks they prefer and think more important. I like MB’s conservatism. I dislike almost everything else about her.
Are you my wife in drag? She says virtually the same thing to me almost daily...
The media and/or the Republican establishment will always try make conservatives look like freaks. In other words, the most conservative person in any GOP primary will always be painted as a kook. So I am saying that the qualities that you think you don’t like about Bachmann, in large part, came from a source that should be ignored.
You, sir, are absolutely spot on. I take what you said as my own.
When the candidates came and spoke to us at the NH House, I was singularly unimpressed with Mrs. Bachmann, both in delivery (she was the only one who read her presentation) and in content. Her speech was totally inappropriate for the audience and the occasion.
I had not watched any debate until last night. My previously formed opinion of her was confirmed in spades. Same with Rong Paul. He seems much more concerned with Iran being surrounded than he does with Israel’s situation. Please, Doctor, just go away. It’s over.
Ron Paul; what's with those flailing hands and shrugging shoulders? sounds idiotic on national defense... sounds batty, looks grumpy: Mitt; says and does whatever is politically expedient... ..."core beliefs? what core beliefs? we don't need no stinkin' core beliefs"... and what's with that plastic hair, and can I get a Stepford Wife, or do I gotta be Morman ; Teletubby Newt; oh, that grinchy smile: Huntsman; calm, cool, collected, and BORING! And, lets see, oh yah, Santorum; "While everybody else is talking about it, I've done it, I've done it all, and oh yah, did I mention I lost my congressional seat to a democrat..." Aaannnd then there's Poor ol' Perry, "...just can't get no respect, hell, I may as well compare myself to Tebow, see if that works... c-mon down to Texas, our migrant workers get the best education tax payer's money can buy"
Top that, I dare ya... I triple dog dare ya!!
And I dislike a majority of politicians and alot about all the other people running. MB has a 100% rating from the ACU and is right on every issue. She is about all that is left. With everyone else we have something to cringe about.
Right. We know what Michelle stands against - other conservatives. We have much less information on what Michelle stands for. If she thinks she is going to win conservative support by tearing down others rather than building up herself, she is seriously mistaken.
I’m going to be juvenile in my approach to illustrate how I now see Bachmann and her politics.
She’s not the one in the shower. ;>)
