Nice catch by The Minnesota Independent’s Andy Birkey. During an interview with the Sioux City [Iowa] Journal published Tuesday, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said she was not weighing a run for president — despite recent suggestions that she may hold ambitions for higher office — but she did offer an endorsement of her own: Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa).
From The Minnesota Independent:
“Steve King is mentioned as a potential nominee,” Bachmann said. “I have a very high opinion of Steve King and his ability, so I would encourage him to consider any position for higher office.”
Like Bachmann, King is a very conservative Christian known for stirring controversy with his public statements. He made waves this summer when he opposed a resolution recognizing the role slaves played in building the U.S. Capitol and called hate-crimes legislation “the Pedophile Protection Act.” Our sister site, the Iowa Independent, has continuing coverage of Bachmann’s kindred spirit to the south.

Can you frickin read? Where did I say you supported McCain?
I asked HOW DID THAT WORK for you? If you are a conservative, and I’m assuming you are, I’m guessing that it sucked.
SO I REPEAT. NO MORE CORONATIONS, NO MORE NAME RECOGNITION CONTESTS.
How did WHAT work for me?
Sheeesh, what a maroon. What an idiot!
STOP YOUR LYING and MAKING THINGS UP ABOUT ME...you freakin' liberal idiot!
Listen, dumbnuts. I don’t beat around the bush. If I think you supported McCain, I would say so. I asked how did him winning work for you?
Simple, easy to understand english, for anyone but a retard.
STOP attempting to imply I support mccain or any RINO.
STOP YOUR LYING - YOU'VE BEEN EXPOSED! (over & out)
You inferred, you illiterate moron. But you sure sound defensive. I wonder which RINO you did support.
Me too. That, and I thought Richard Bachman was dead.
I proudly carry Rep King’s business card in my wallet. He is not my rep (I am across the river in Nebraska) but I have been following him for a while.
My wife met him when he visited her facility last year and told him I am a big fan. She mentioned my interest in the FairTax and he talked her leg off after that. Gave her a card and asked her to pass it along to me.
He is a real deal conservative. I would vote for him if he runs.
