Michelle Bachmann

[Cheesehead Craig]

McCarthyism is back in full force with her.

First, she calls Obama "anti-American", 6:30 mark or so

Then she calls for an investigation of all Congress to find all the "anti-Americans".

I'm embarrassed to have her as the rep for my state.

[Deputy Nutz]

You should be embarrassed for posting something you didn't listen to carefully. Sher said Obama is associating with people who are anti-American. Matthews asked her if other Congressional members are anti-American and she told Chris that the media should investigate it and do an expose. In other words, they should accurately report the views of Congressional members. Matthews made the leap from anti-American associates to anti-American congressional members. A clever little move, if deliberate. But it deflected and avoided the issue at hand, at least for people looking at it superficially.

Joe McCarthey was not so off base...read the venona papers....geesh, you would think on a wisconsin team forum he could be honestly represented.

[texaspackerbacker]

Exactly!

The ultimate proof that Joe McCarthy--flawed individual that he apparently was--was on the right track, is the way he has been savaged by the leftist extremists who from then to now have dominated the education, media, and entertainment community.

As for Bachman, how could ANYBODY dispute her line that Obama is anti-American? Consider everything in Obama's mysterious background, everyone who he has surrounded himself with, everything he has written in his own book, everything he has stated prior to campaigning for president, and even much of what he continues to spew, and there's just no other conclusion to come to except that Obama indeed IS anti-American.

A bit of investigation into Ayres, Wright, Rezko, Flaggert, and the rest of the trash supporting and promoting Obama would certainly be in order.

She was awesome in BTO though.

I listened to it perfectly fine. She came out and said in the first video that she believes Obama has Anti-American views (at the time stamp I stated). She also said in the 2nd video that she believes there should be an investigation into Congress to find those with Anti-American views. She's calling for a witch hunt of Congress. She's getting blasted here in MN for her statements and she's got a very good chance now of being booted out of office. Her opponent got almost $1M in donations since her statement and registered Republican voters are saying they aren't voting for her because of this.

It's one thing to disagree with how to run a country from a Democrat or Republican standpoint. It's another thing entirely when you start baselessly calling out the other party as a whole of being Anti-American and demand investigations into them. This whole strategy by the GOP is crap and it's backfiring on them.

Wow are you out of your mind. Matthews asked her about the rest of Congress. She said it was up to the press to do an expose on whether or not the Congress is anti-American. Matthews raised the issue of anti-American congressional members, NOT Bachman. She was talking about Obama's associates who ARE anti-American - they have stated so in no uncertain terms: repeatedly, consistently, and unabashedly.

He asked it, and she said that there should be an investigation of Congress. She was pretty damn adamant about it too. That means she is calling for one. Nothing's being taken out of context here. It was a direct question and a direct answer.

The only ones that are out of their mind are those who can defend this crap.

She said THE PRESS should do an expose. Did you catch that? Isn't that what the press is supposed to do? I haven't defended anything. All I've done is demonstrate that you actually didn't understand what you allegedly watched.

She is calling for an investigation of Congress on Anti-American views, what the hell does it matter who does it as a matter of semantics? She called for an investigation. She has stated that Obama has anti-American views. Go talk down to someone else who will take it. I understood it just fine and watched the whole thing. I'm done arguing with someone who just spins and spins using semantics. Her actions were deplorable.

In response to Chris Matthews asking whether there were other anti-American Congressional members, she said THE PRESS should investigate. Your responses make it seem as though she was prodding congress for an investigation, much like the misleading reference to McCarthy in the title of the Utube video. That video - and you by extension - are spinning it as though She was pushing for a McCarthy like investigation. First, she was asked a diverting question by Matthews and Second, she said THE PRESS should look into it. The interview was about the anti-american nature of Obama's associates (and yes, she implicates Obama). The spin into McCarthyism comes completely from your direction.
