      The more conservative posters at MMFA tell me that it's liberals who always play the victim, the more I see right-wing professional and government liars doing it themselves.

      It's appropriate that the ticker has the word "broad" while her face is up there.

      As much as I know I'm gonna get ripped for this:

      I actually have to give Bachmann credit for her first anwser about how she isnt bothered by the media critism because it doesnt matter.

      True,she's bat$h!t crazy, but at least she doesnt blame the media for it and play the typical "im a victim of media targeting" card about it, at least in this one stand alone clip

        I'm experiencing cognitive dissonance. I'm looking into her eyes, thinking, "who'd stalk a zombie?"

          Michelle, haven't you been listening to the shots BillO is taking at you? And how dare you talk about a "stalker" having his own TV Show especially since you are being interviewed by a stalker with his own TV show. Are both of you that dense....The Denseometer says.........99% dense

      "I don't need government to be successful"
      But I'll take it anyway because it's far less difficult and demanding than being a tax attorney, and the free government health plan is a real bonus.

      As somebody who's actually had a stalker in her life... bite me, Michele Bachmann. Keith Olbermann talking about you for thirty seconds out of a one-hour program every so often does not a stalker make.

      It figures that she and Fox would be the sex card. No one is criticizing her being a congresswoman nor about fitting into certain "stereotypes". We're criticizing her because what she says makes no sense and she also lies about it.

      articulately, bill... ARTICULATELY??? does that involve being able to speak the english language without sounding like an illiterate jack@ss?

      michelle bachmann makes me sick to my stomach. bill doesnt understand the backlash against her because he doesnt care to expose her lies that anyone with the ability to do a little research can figure out. he is still a blind partisan (not that he neve was)... the evidence of that is the fact he cant challenge bachmann on any of the criticisms against her. he just wonders why people criticize her and tries to portray her and palin as nice "good-looking women". unfortunately, for bill, that is not the issue. its the fact that they are liars... plain and simple.

        The reason Orally doesn't challenge Bachmann on anything is because he himself secretly agrees with every inflammatory statement she makes. "Independent" my butt!

      Michelle, it happened because you say crazy and dangerous things.
      You spout falsehoods and craziness.

      These are quotes frome her on the House floor...

      "Carbon Dioxide is not a harmful gas... it's natural and harmless"

      "The swine flu broke out under Jimmy Carter."

      "FDR enacted the Hoot-Smalley Act"

      She brings it upon herself...

        She studied under Palin.

        Ah, the delight of those two running on the Republican ticket.

        Mitt Romney would vote for Obama.

        But what about McCain, who by the way was a POW, in case any of you forgot. No one mentions that anymore. Who would McCain vote for???

      I watched this segment live on Fox last night. Even by O'Reilly's miserable standards, it was pretty bad. They talked about other people focusing on Bachman, but not once did O'Reilly even attempt to point out that the focus on Bachman was precipitated by statements she has made.

      By contrast, I don't remember O'Reilly ever doing a segment with that Colorado university professor (name escpaes me, but the left winger who has made stupid and controversial remarks -- i.e., flip side to Bachman), and O'Reilly starting out with, "What have you ever done to upset the right wing?"

      It's hard to listen to YOUR OWN WORDS when they are repeated on TV verbatim, makes you sound like an ignorant, unformed fool, doesn't it Ms. Bachmann?
