Obviously you disappove, along with painting everyone that disagrees with you as "left."

Why do you think the criticism she receives is invalid?

Let's talk about that, eh?

There is no way that Bachmann wins the Republican nomination and absolutely NO WAY she wins a national election.

I think that's a given. Which is why she should stop getting so much attention IMO.

When did I ever imply I hated Ms. Bachmann? I think she is typical of the Right wing but I do not hate her.

Unfortunately, seems you may give too much credit for rational thinking to the supporters of Bachmann and Palin. Seems most Republicans are scared to death of those crazy tea party folks.

I certainly hope so.

Is "hatefest" the chosen word-of-the-month by the right wing blogs? LOL You guys are using it so much that it has no "sting" anymore, nor does it have any real meaning. Consult your dictionaries. Two other enormously over used words in politics are "sad," and "sick."

"Hate" takes a lot of energy. I can't imagine people really putting enough energy into the absurdities constantly put out by Palin and Bachmann to actually "hate" those women. They both just silly "girls" doing the "good ole boys'" work out there.

No, sorry, unlike Repugs I don't hate anyone....I know that is hard for repugs to understand because they only have 3 emotions-hate, anger, and hate.


Now, either show where anyone said they hated Bachmann or why you think that disliking someone who wants to SCREW our Veterans is wrong.


Do you agree with B-Bachmann funding for veterans should be cut?

C'mon, be the FIRST Republican to condemn that vile, disgusting SICK act.

I don't think she's typical of the Right wing at all. I think she's an outlier. And I thank whatever deity for that every day. If she were truly representative, we'd be in a world of hurt in this country -- even more so than we currently are.

Just being Tea Party is not the problem to me. A lot of them seem to be all about deficit reduction and whatnot, so fine. I don't have a problem with that. It's that Bachman has a penchant for saying things that sound good but make no real sense, but she still gets the spotlight. Eh. But she's not going anywhere, so I might as well just set my phasers to "ignore" and get it over with.
