Michele Bachmann's Comments On Larry King Live Send Denver Columnist Into Near-Seizure
David Horowitz's NewsRealBlog.com ^ | March 8, 2010 | John L. Work

Congressional Representative Michele Bachmann’s appearance on CNN’s Larry King live a few days ago has sent the Denver Examiner’s Keith Vance, not to mention the Obama White House, into a state close to hysteria. Vance is calling Bachmann a liar and accusing her of being part of the conservative smear machine – because she matter-of-factly called for an investigation into President Obama’s attempt to persuade Representative Jim Matheson to change his vote on Obama-care from no to yes. Bachmann’s point is well-taken, in that Obama just nominated Matheson’s brother for a seat on the federal bench.

Well, now. Here is the entire tirade in the Examiner:

“Watching the conservative echo chamber in action is a frightening experience that most people don’t have to stomach on a daily basis.

The latest misinformation parroted by the rightwing machinery is that President Obama is buying votes on health care with judicial nominations…

… Now Fox News, Michele Bachmann and Glenn Beck are jumping all over this. Echo. Echo. Echo. Soon it will be fact.

On CNN’s Larry King Live, Bachmann said that Obama’s appointment of Matheson to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit is corruption and must be investigated…

… Of course, there’s not a shred of actual evidence to support this scandalous corrupt bargain, but hey, who needs facts when the Weekly Standard can just make things up and Fox News repeats it until it becomes the Truth.

The White House calls the accusation “absurd.”…”

Of course it does. Anything a conservative says, or any question posed, that presents an obstacle to blind obedience to Obama’s leftist agenda is silly or absurd.

I think Michele Bachmann gets under the Lefties’ skins – in a big way.

As Bachmann stated in a conference call this afternoon, she is Nazi Pelosi's #1 target in November.

The more libs scream about something the conservatives accuse them of, more often than not it’s because it’s hitting too close to the mark.

Excellent....

“Of course, there’s not a shred of actual evidence to support this scandalous corrupt bargain, but hey, who needs facts when the Weekly Standard can just make things up and Fox News repeats it until it becomes the Truth.”

Typical Leftist “Projection”. Accuse the opposition of that which is common for themselves to perpetrate upon that opposition.

Wow, and all this time I thought it was "the seriousness of the charge" that really mattered. /s

As hard as this may be for our American Marxists to understand, We the People do NOT want Communist medicine practiced by barely literate yokels being paid $10 an hour, which is where we will be in ten years if this monstrosity is made into law. “Dissent is the highest form of patriotism” !!!

What will it take for some of these Dims to wake up? The bribes and intimidation tactics are becoming ever more brazen. If 0bama can’t get his votes for 0bamacare, will he resort to .... physical violence or even assassination?
These thug tactics are unprecedented. Anything is possible now.

Of course, it’s just a f-—ing coincidence that Zero would appoint Matheson’s brother to the COA when he is desperately courting Matheson’s vote. Just a big, fat f-—ing coincidence! s/

Got to love Congresswoman Bachman! Thank God she is out there!

Metrosexual politically-correct RINOs, take note:

Conservative women have more balls than you do.

Maybe something you ought to think about?

"Actual evidence" precedes investigation? That would be interesting. I sort of was thinking that first investigation, then evidence, then charges... Silly.

The /s, ummm, why?

As I recall, that is exactly what the commies were screeching about.

How did to go?

"the seriousness of the charge is sufficient reason for an investigation."

She always delivers calmly with an unflappable smile, and that REALLY makes them crazy.

IIRC, there is a legal term, in Latin, that means, "The thing speaks for itself."

The “journalist” who wrote the tirade tried to start up an online newspaper in Seattle a couple of years ago and filled it with about what you would expect: Liberal rants of this sort and, surprise, couldn’t make any money. Had to shut down. (Bias = Layoffs, er, Bias = Failure) They are talking to each other in an echo chamber.
