Bachmann calls Gingrich a “frugal socialist”, responds to accusations of homophobia

Is Newt Gingrich a “frugal socialist”? That’s what Congresswoman Michele Bachmann called him during her appearance on the Glenn’s radio program today.

In response to Newt’s comments about his support of the Medicare prescription drug program, Bachmann said, “Well, my response is it doesn’t help to have a frugal socialist. That’s really what we’re talking about is managing socialism and trying to be a frugal socialist.”

“Because you’re looking at proposals and programs that are in effect redistribution of wealth and socialism based. And are we going to have real change in the country or are we going to have frugal socialists,” she added.

What would Bachmann do?

“What I would do is have free markets and healthcare. The problem has been the federal government intervening in the free market system in healthcare and that has driven the cost up everywhere. And so what we need to do is go back to allowing people to buy any health insurance policy they want anywhere in the United States with no federal minimum mandate requirements,” she said.

“Across state lines and then pay for their policies with their own tax free money, their copays, their deductibles, anything that’s related and then have true medical malpractice reform. Because the real problem in healthcare is cost. And it’s the federal government that’s driving up the cost.”

Bachmann also addressed some accusations that have been hurled her way, including that she is homophobic. Recently, a young child whose mother is a lesbian confronted her on accusations that she and her husband think homosexuals need “fixing”.

“Well, of course not. You know, I believe that we love all people, and I do. I love everyone. I don’t necessarily agree with them but I love them, I’m kind to them, I’m gracious to them because the golden rule is treat others as you want to be treated,” she said.

“I think it’s shameless to use a little boy and to put that little boy forward to advance an agenda issue.

“I believe that marriage should be between one man and one woman,” she added.

Glenn wanted to know why she was so firm on her stance on this.

“Why? Well, because number one, it’s foundational in the scriptures and in the scriptures of, you know, Christian and Judeo. And if you go through the major religions of the world and really through 5,000 years of recorded human history, you can’t find a tribe or a nation or a people group where marriage has been anything other than between men and women. Now, some of have had more than one man or more than one woman, but it’s always been between man and woman,” she said.

“I believe it’s morally right,” she said.

Bachmann also said she does not support civil unions because “they are the equivalency of marriage.” When situations arrive regarding hospital visitations or money, she felt those were “contract situations”.

    I know Glenn is seriously in the tank for Bachmann but really…..Come
    on Glenn atleast be objective with your questions (remember the whole
    ”truth has no agenda” thing???)….I had to stop the the player
    because I was getting nauseous listening to it.

    What is with the frugal comment???
    Michele…exactly
    what are you going to do with the current structure to the Medicare
    Medicade program today??? I mean right now??? There must be some form
    of transition or else you a) collapse the existing system, or b) keep
    with the current. There is no middle ground. The American Ship is a
    huge one and cannot like a HUGE 18 Wheeler to turn on a dime like a tiny
    sports car that is just not physically posible. There must be some
    middle or ”frugal” transitional stage to get you from A to B. That is
    a disingenuous statement…..I can hear Ronald Reagan spinning in his
    grave now…..

    Just when you think progressives can’t get any lower in their tactics they surprise you again at the depths of depravity they will sink to. If we are willing to kick a grade school kid out of school because he comments a guy looks like the president and the school system supports the bigoted daughter based on her PERCEPTION of what he meant then this woman should have her child removed from her care by CPS for psychologically damaging the development of her child and teaching her child reverse bigotry against somebody who dares disagree with her view point. Congratulations progressives, with children shields (Tell me did you learn that tactic from the Islamist Fascists?) used to curtail the rights of conservatives by attempting to trap them in a convention center in Washington OWS rallies. Union work protests while Union parents swear and act like animals in front of their own children at other co workers who will do their job beat up people in the street and destroy others property because they feel they are owed. And finally using our kids to stage strike crowds and put them in harms way at events filled with hate where there is potential threat of violence to using them as political cannon fodder at a candidates event just to get in the press while the loser mother films the whole thing. The means justify the ends don’t they. Even your children are on sacrificial alter to the Pagan God of progressive ideology. But then again, I must remember these are progressives. The same people who threw the Jews, American Germans, Italians, and Japanese into concentration camps. These are progressives who would euthanize their aging Parents ( Out of the way Grandma I want my healthcare).These are progressives who reduce people to numbers and slaughter them by the millions like livestock. These are Progressives who are the first to advocate that violence and death are part of life but they like cowards put themselves last in line to die for their cause. These are Progressives who condone taking away peoples property and rights until it is their own. These Are progressives who support planned parenthood and its Genocidal racist witch of a founder Margaret Sanger. These are Progressives who accept and promote tolerance (as long as it is their point of view). These are Progressives who believe in freedom of religion as long as you don’t show it and they can use priest craft to make it bow down to the state interpretation of what religion should teach and be. These are progressives who are the hypocrites and liars of history and like the 2 face god Janus from Roman Mythology purports an image of being the exact opposite of what they really are. They say they are the future. But the reality is they are just the rusty old chains of the failed institutions of mans slavery. The only thing changed is the face each time.

    Bachman — I can easily see you being the true wild card candidate I figure will happen in the next election cycle.

  • http://tayloralexander.org tayloralexander

    Michelle is right. The high cost of health care in the US is a result, almost a direct result, of Government intervention. I’ve sat on many panels attempting to justify charges with private insurance companies. It’s tough. Many claims are deied and the hospital eats them… However along comes our tax dollars and the hospitals get 66% plus of their revenue, no questions asked and many of the inpatient days are questionable. The reimbursement rate per day of medicare and medicaid is higher than many private insurance companies. Much of the cost is discounted (over 60%)  to private companies. But the Government (read taxpayers) get to pay the full bill.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_CZJ5UXEITIYOKVMHXENJRYGCAE Perry Obsternoffan

    I like Bachman but she has about zero chance of getting the nomination, as does Santorum.  

    I would be happy to be proven wrong but for whatever reason the American people just don’t seem to be warming to them.

    Attacking the other candidates at this point is valid, but what happens if Newt or Romney get the nomination, are the Bachmans and Santorums going to then campaign for Obama? 

    I suspect a third party is about the only thing that will destroy the status quo in DC, but I am not stupid enough to think that this will happen this year, or that the country can survive if you idiots hand it back to him in 2012. 

    How about instead meeting with whoever wins and getting them to sign one of those famous contracts with america or going third party if they don’t.  Make it public. Hold their feet to the fire.

    What Bachman wants Gingrich will actually accomplish and what can’t be accomplished he won’t even bother with. Gingrich is still the step in the right direction, but I’m looking for a dynasty of great constitutional conservatives to step up after the groundwork is laid.

    I like Santorum and Bachmann on the economy and role of the federal government, but then I don’t at the same time. It is hard to boast a stance of limited government and then to send troops and government influence overseas with our tax dollars and have the government control our social lives. If you’re gonna be for limiting the fed, go all the way. I know this is where conservatism branches off into conservatives, but the role of government really does have to be considered. The social issues, such as same sex marriage, are more of a non issue for me so I wouldn’t be so reluctant to vote for them in that regard. Continuous wars overseas and occupation of the world is where I would wince a bit. That’s why my bid goes to Ron Paul, if he even lasts for the Connecticut primaries…

    The simplest question would be where did this little boy come from? If he doesn’t really know, then we can all see where the problem lies.  One doesn’t need to quote the bible on everything you know.

  • Anonymous

    Ms. Bachmann (and Mr. Beck) promote many right and just things in the desire to return back to our Founding Fathers belief in a limited government, as well as promotion of the free market. But many also fit the Fathers’ desire to their own views and needs. In a democracy, if an issue runs contrary to a popular faith or belief such as Christianity, the issue isn’t necessarily wrong. Nor should the issue be shot down on account of the Scriptures. I totally disagree with everything regarding homosexuality and its relationship to the Bible. But the key insight we must all seek is that this country is not ran off the pages of the Bible, nor should we be governed by any specific guidelines. A true democracy does not rule its people off one perspective or belief system. I don’t believe that opposing gay marriage legislation can be justified solely because it runs contrary to Christianity. Trying to change people who are homosexual won’t be productive. They aren’t the same as you are, convincing them to be the same is futile, and mandating their change is tyranny. The desire for a “Christian” nation is just as totalitarian as the “Progressives”. A large majority of the Founders were Deists, which believes in a God but not a specifically Christian God. Rather, the God of the universe was the Creator, Ruler, etc. Men such as Thomas Paine and Ben Franklin believed religion was something that held us back from being a cohesive society and by establishing the 1st Amendment, issues of religion were solved. Each man can find what he holds in his heart to be just and right and act of the convictions he draws for himself. That principle is what everyone struggles with and we will struggle as a country under Presidents of both parties until we come to terms with what this means.

    There is so much I could say.  Let’s start with something simple.  Glenn says that he supports Bachmann because of her “honor”.  Well, early on, while I did not support her, I did respect her.  But as her poll numbers have cratered she has done exactly what every seedy politician does, attack her opponents, not on policy, but with smears such as “frugal socialist”.  Say what you want about Newt, he’s the only Republican in 80 years to actually shrink government. 

    Oh, and by the way one thing is never “equivalency” to another.  They are equal.  Civil unions are not the “equivalency” of anything.  Finally, while it’s fine that you don’t support them, Michelle, you should know that the 2 largest Jewish groups. Reform and Conservative, both recognize not only “civil unions” but gay marriage.

    She has zero chance because that’s what the media wants people to think. They were so afraid of Sarah Palin they had to go on a 24/7/365 assault on her and finally the right bought into it and said gee, she’s unelectable. They chose the Republican candidate in 08 and looks like they will do it again in 2012. The Left has gone right down the line destroying which ever candidate is polling the highest at the time. The Republican Party elitists are happy to sit back and let the media eliminate all the Conservative candidates so their boy , Romney, gets the nod. The media will do to him just like they did McCain in 08.

    I think she can win. We want a President that wasn’t in on the insider trading, that’s her. Someone that ran their own business, her. Knows what it’s like to raise a family while fighting congress, her again. she wants to use our own oil and manpower to do so. She did not vote to raise the debt ceiling, didn’t vote for the stimulus, healthcare, Dodd-Frank, and willing to rip out a lot of the job killing regulation. I don’t know why anyone would put another Progressive in office with all we have going on. It looks like everyone is starting to fall for one now with the gullible Gingrich. I don’t know how can anyone research him and come out wanting him as President.

    Ron Paul is a disaster on 2 legs. WE have 2 maintain the world trade system. This keeps us in the drivers seat & makes our life style possible. This means keeping the strongest military & deploying them where needed 2 defend this system. We r not going 2 bring them home & we r going 2 keep spending the most on the military. Libertarians have such a naive view of human nature. You don’t whisper sweet nothings n2 the ear of your enemies, u defeat them if possible or frustrate their plans until u can. We have allies we have 2 defend as well. There is a reason why the world’s wealth flows here & not somewhere else. Military power is a major part of our ability 2 maintain our system. We need more effecient use of resources not a shirking of our duties.

    Conservatives, Constitutionalists, Republicans, and Independents all need to drop the things that they perceive create separation and embrace a solid stance to support Michele Bachman or Rick Santorum. These are the only 2 people in the race for the 2012 Presidential election that truly understand that Western culture, true capitalism, and individual freedom are being held in the balance and will likely be lost if anyone of lesser morals and integrity is elected.

    Wow…Bachmann went over the top today !!! I’m a very conservative person but she need’s to shut up !!! I have known wonderful people that were gay..But I agree because of religious belief I disagree with their choice but I will refuse to judge them it’s not my place. Did she forget her Bible? Before you can take the speak out of your brothern’s eye,you need to see clear and take the speak out of your own eye. Judge not or let ye be judged !!!! We Christians believe in our Bible but let’s follow it too !! I did like the fact that she said she loved them and was kind well I think she should be kinder and just Shut up. Bachmann will never get my vote ! Calling Newt a Frugal Socialist….Really NOT hardly ! He would chew her up in a debate. Yes Newt has done some stupid crap..ahhhh they all have. As for Ron Paul I love him but he has some crazy A$$ idea’s to say the least. I do think he would straighten us up financially but he can be a little scary with other idea’s. Romney ….hmmmm reminds me of a High Class salesman..he tell’s you what you want to hear,he just goes with the wind kinda bothers me….So for me although I have a hard time with Newts past..I think he is a pittbull and will stand up and fight for this country and he never backs down.

    Way to go Michele, you are speaking for the Americans who believe in the founding fathers decisions. This was a country based on a Christian God and as such all laws are based on Christian laws. Separation of church and state does not mean separation of church and state. It simply means church cannot dictate laws of the land. We must always be submissive to the Gods of our Fathers.
    On the homosexual note, there are so many health issues involved they should not get health care. I wonder also why they are so Heterophobic.

    Romney is also a socialist and even more of a socialist as he actually signed on the dotted line bringing in Romneycare and Obama has been claiming since that was inspiration for Obamacare. 

    Does Bachmann have an agenda when she only calls one candidate a socialist and leaves the other socialist out of the picture?  If she wants to endorse Romney, then she should go ahead and do it.

If she were president she would replace the Constitution with her snake dancing poison drinking hillbilly uber-literalist Bible that they didn’t even believe in in Jesus’ day. Listening to her reminds me of that cult guy who thought space men were coming for him in a comet.

    Newt balanced the budget under Clinton’s second term, something few people have ever done. He has a proven record of accomplishments. Sure he’s done some bad things, but who hasn’t? Newt has his eye on the ball, and spends his time attacking Obama. Michele Bachmann spends her time attacking other Republicans which is completely counter-productive. No matter how bad any of the Republicans are they are infinitely better than Obama. The country literally cannot survive four more years of Obama. The only way this country can survive is if anyone on the Republican side wins. It’s no use worrying about principles when the country’s about to collapse. Save the country first then argue over all the minutea later or else it won’t matter.

    You mentioned: “The desire for a “Christian” nation is just as totalitarian as the “Progressives”.” 
    What are you talking about?  No one is opposing gay marriage legislation, no one is mandating their change, “ because it runs contrary to Christianity ” as you said.

    This is nothing more than a “political correctness” mambo-jumbo. If anything, that this IS what destroys democracy!

    Ms. Bachmann believes that the same law should be applied to EVERYONE, while some (or most) homosexuals believe that special laws should be applied for them.

    If we talk about “true democracy”, if you don’t mind using your words, than why should be some groups be granted special laws? because they are minority? 

    If the majority doesn’t demand from the minority to change their behaviour/ believe, than why is it justified from the minority to demand the same from the majority (Christians)? Is that what you call “true democracy”? 

    Not Bachmann! She said that the same rules, same laws to apply to everyone. And you have problem with that one. While she believes in traditional morals, she doesn’t oppose the homosexuals’ life-style or belief system. Yet, you take side with the homosexuals, and think that they should be granted special laws, exceptions, while the rest of the people, including Christianity, should be bounded by different laws. And you do this in the name of “true democracy”. 

    It’s mind boggling!

    You’re either having trouble understanding concepts in conversation and in written script, or you are having weak short-term memory regarding what you saw, heard and read.

    Maybe you should re-read the script a couple of times, and listen/watch the video a few times.

    Either way, it seems that you are having some kind of attention disorder. Bachman, or most Christians don’t have agenda to change or fix homosexuals. It is the other way around, the homosexuals are the one that believe they deserve “exceptions”, “special laws”, etc. that the Christian community should be forced to obey. It just doesn’t seem very democratic, or does it?

    Homosexuals are accepted by most Christians and other non-homosexuals for what they are. No one has intention to force them in to change.

    Homosexuals promote their agenda, and they demand respect, understanding from Christians and other non-homosexuals. However, when Christians and other non-homosexuals promote their believes, the homosexuals feel threatened and offended.

    Why should be one belief respected and protected, while the other viewed as a threat and offence? 

    If minority groups are protected by law from the persecution of majority groups, then the majority groups should be granted the very same laws, they too should be protected from the persecutions of the minority groups. 

    Persecution isn’t right just because the few does it to the many and not the other way around.  If anything is “totalitarian”, than this IS. 

    While you said “”Christian” nation is just as totalitarian as the “Progressives”, i say, totalitarian is when the minority trying to demand special treatment and laws to be granted for them by the government to rule over the majority, and demand from that majority to modify their believes to make them suit to the minority  group’s interest.
    Homosexuals call Christians homophobic because their traditional believes toward homosexuality. Could be the homosexuals called Chritophobic based on the very same principle, because their bios toward Judeo-Christian traditional belief? Why not? Why should one group granted more protection by the civil law than the other?Why have homosexuals right to be offended by Christian believes, while Christians have NO rights to be feel offended by homosexual believes? Why is one right, while the other is wrong?Bachmann is right, no special laws, no privileges! Same law and same rights for everyone! 

    While Bachmann sands up for her belief, she doesn’t stand against the homosexuals, she doesn’t persecute them, doesn’t try to force them to change. Not according to the script, and not according to the videos.

    Newt may have supported NAFTA, but he didn’t create it. It would have existed with or without him, but that doesn’t matter because China isn’t a member. GATT was started in the 40s and transitioned into the WTO over many decades. Please don’t get your history off of cereal boxes.

    I was leaning  toward Herman cain until he dropped out. Then thought Newt would be good until I heard his interview with Glenn. I now believe he would be the same as Obama but, perhaps on a bit slower pace.  I like some of Ron Paul’s ideas but he is too far out on too many issues and Mitt is  just an east coast elitist and instead of Obamacare we would have Romneycare. Perry is too easy on illegals. I believe both Bachmann and Santorim would be good but can’t seem to get any traction. So we still can’t find a Reagan but, anyone has got to be better than Obama.

    Michele Bachmann is the best candidate to return our country to our original Constitutional limited Federal government.  She understands that cultural Marxism (the destruction of the Western Judeo-Christian culture) is one of the most important issues.  The government given us by the Founders only works for a moral people who respect/revere GOD and HIS Word. Our children need this stability and we need the freedom the Constitution bequeathed us.  Communists have been working toward this overthrow for a long time and are now partnered with the Islamists. I agree she is our last chance.

    For all those who support Ron Paul, let us not forget that in the first debate, it was confirmed that he also supported legalizing prostitution along with illegal drugs in all 50 States.  Oh, that would really raise the moral character of our nation and make us leaders in the world. As far as I’m concerned that totally threw out any pro-life platform he might stand on or any support I might throw his way. At least Michele Bachmann stands for the things that have made our country great and she’s not afraid to remind us that freedom has always come at a cost, how much are each of us willing to lay down for the cause of freedom, it just takes a few steps to the polls in November 2012, remember freedom isn’t free but it can be taken away, exercise your right to vote!

    Bachmann and Santorum are almost exactly as is Ron Paul on economics. Paul’s major problem is he is unaware of or ignores the genocidal existential threat of Islam at the peril of civilization. This makes Paul a huge danger.

    As a person that has spent his life dealing with my own gay issues, Bachmanns’ use of “Christian” psychotherapy to deal with homosexuality is where we part ways.

    …and the more i hear from Michele Bachmann, is see just how desperate she is from being so far behind Newt… That stupid, dumb looking “gaze” she snaps to once she knows the camera is about to capture her, is so “fake” it’s pathetic.  As our present president, she has never been an administrator of anything other than her many foster children.  She is NOT presidental material but does have some good ideas, such as a marriage only between men and women.  It’s “wrong” for same sex marriage.  It’s perverted and sick and cruel to any children who happen to be involved.  What’s next, man and chicken?  Is there anything sacred anymore?  Her ideas should be kept in Congress, where she belongs…

    I knew that the Democrats wanted a Global Government and wanted it to be the United Nations but this is new information for me that the Republicans also want a Global Government but center it in America. This is very scary to me and I like the fact that Michelle Bachmann is fighting it. I would like to see her be the next President for that reason alone. If the issues were just the economy and stopping the Progressive agenda of increased Socialism in the US I would be quite comfortable, but not after hearing that the Republicans are also for a Global Government!

    A Global Government would completely eliminate our Democracy and our Freedom. The United States would no longer be a government, “of the people, by the people, and for the people” as Abe Lincoln said. There is no way there could be honest, fair elections for a Global Government President or Senator. The Government would be run by a Liberal Elite corp. and we the people, would again be like the serfs, peasants, and peons with a King or the “Nobility”.telling us what to do and controlling our lives. Vote for Bachmann!

    The progressives absolutely hate Michele with every fiber of their being.  That’s all I need to know in order to seal my support for her.

    Glenn had her on GBTV tonight for like 30 minutes.  It was the best, most informative interview of Michele I’ve seen yet.  Without GBTV, I doubt I would see anybody else do the same kind of quality, in depth job.

    Is Michele the most charismatic speaker?  No.  Has she made her share of gaffs in her campaign?  Yes.  I keep seeing people say, Newt isn’t perfect, well neither is Michele.  I just wish everyone would just give her the same kind of respect they’re giving Newt in that regard.

    There’s no doubt in my mind she’s the true Tea Party candidate by upholding the most Tea Party principals.  And I’m so thankful for GBTV for showing her for who she really is…

Certainly Russia has a history of trying for world domination and the Muslim Arabs have already taken over a huge peace of the world since the 600′s when there religion began.

    No, absolutely not. Ron Paul’s economics are the most conservative and would have not gotten us into a mess in the first place. Santorum knows little about economics and Bachmann has just recently begun reading the works of Mises (someone who predicted the Great Depression and blamed it on government unlike Keynes who didn’t see it coming and blamed it on the market).

    The foreign policy issue is an issue though. I would say his stance on Israel is completely misunderstood though. Look up his congressional record in the 1980s. He was the most friendly to the Israelis while everyone else was more occupied with paying for Hussein’s golden toilets with tax payer money.

If that is allowed, that means soon after the general population will be allowed to have sex with animals.  This is disgusting!  Michelle Bachmann is the only one I see who is a true believer in smaller government, less spending, anti socialism, in general she gets it.  The rest of the candidates are career politicians, who are not looking out for we the people, they are looking out for their careers.  What she looks like is not of any relevance, it is wht she has to say about where this country needs to go that matters.  I don’t see anyone really listening to her.

    I was an early Bachmann supporter, however the more I hear the less I like.  She is a one issue candidate with a limited in depth knowledge of the issues and boilerplate solutions to complex problems.  This is evident by the fact that her campaign no longer features her ideas (limited though they may be) but instead has taken the same old tired path of negative attacks on anyone in double digit poll positions.  The debates have done a brilliant job of separating the wheat from the chaff.

I’m willing to bet that nearly all of you that dismiss him do so because you follow exactly what the media tells you to do – including Glenn. Stop and think for a second – you know a true threat to the establishment when everyone in the establishment, both government and media, try to ignore it. The latest Iowa straw poll placed Ron Paul in second only to the extreme progressive Newt Gingrich. And yet the media tries to tell you he is unelectable? Unable to beat Obama? Wake up people! Listen to his own words! Ron Paul is our only hope. Everyone else is more of the same. We can’t bear it any longer. Please. PLEASE vote for Ron Paul. You will go down as a hero.

    There is a difference between military power and shooting everything that moves. If you are looking forward to an active tour in Iran, by all means follow the status quo. We are the greatest nation on the Earth because we take of ourselves first and at least in the past took care of our economy. Why should we continuously send money to nations to will not stand with us? How bout we go with the America First movement and stop being patriotic for other people?

    Why does Ron Paul get more active military donations then all other GOP candidates combined? Because they are sick and tired of dying for no reason other then the profiteering of the global elite. Link to comment

    Beautiful idea. But, I do believe the left would find a way to cheat on that rule also. And Republicans do NOT know how to fight back. The left gets their word out and that’s what the media goes with.

  • Anonymous

    I’ll just say it right up front:  I would vote for ANY Republican candidate over Obama because it is a clear case of voting for the complete and immediate destruction of what America once was, as opposed to possibly slowing the collapse.  Fact is, our society has been dealt a set of lethal and intentional blows by the “progressives” who have been chewing at the Constitution since before the ink was on the parchment.

    That said, if I had my way Bachmann would be the Republican candidate, with Rand Paul or another bedrock conservative (damned few of those around) as her running mate.  Unfortunately, the media is pretty much in lockstep to glorify Obama and demonize any conservative.  If you doubt this is true, shag your eyes over to http://www.mrc.org 

    If the media were as generous to Bachmann as they are to ANY leftie, she would be the most popular woman in America and would be a landslide in the next election. 

    Note to w.Parker:  good job gettin’ yer’ hate on!   Only someone looking for a reason to hate Bachmann is going to decide that she “snaps” to a “stupid, dumb looking gaze” when the cameras are on her.  Shame on you.

    aud”child”, substance is subjective and not seeing anything from you from which to compare other than you attacking me, leads me to believe why do “you” come to this site. And you “are” contributing to the conversation? Do you even have an opinion on the subject? or, have you taken upon yourself to become the “censor/substance police”? Unlike you, my time is more valuable than to access any site to attack others unless i’m responding to attacks on myself for simply stating my opinion

  • jen

    Unfortunately for you Bachmann has no accomplishments to speak of.  There is nothing she stood up for over the years, other than abortion and gay marriage.  The only thing in her background that is relevant is her far right religious views from which she made millions with her husband in a clinic that changes gays as she believes they are satanic. 

    While she has a ton more intelligence than dimwit Palin, Bachmann just has not been a leader or educator.  She has no seasoning to be seeking the presidential office. 

    You can see how Rand Paul is so different – he stands up and speaks and people pay attention.  He speaks with such conviction and integrity that sets him apart in a crowd right away.  Bachmann just does not have that kind of conviction or experience or background.    She is mainly into combining church and state, which is dangerous to combine religion and politics.

    Europe’s got 70 million hostile Muslims literally destroying Europe. Just today I read about the 3 Muslim women given suspended jail terms for the savage, unprovoked attack on an innocent woman. The excuse the judge gave for not imprisoning these sub-animal savage barbarians is that since their Muslim they weren’t used to drinking. PLEASE! One sees on the video that they were NOT that drunk at all. The Muslim Jihad on Europe has been quite successful. Many barbaric Sharia laws are respected, neighborhoods shut down numerous times daily for massive outdoor prayer, & savages attend rallies with many genocidal signs calling for beheading those who disrespect Islam. Everywhere in the world that its possible for Muslims living with non-Muslims to fight they are, in the most barbaric, sub-human, cowardly ways.

    Good point.  I am concerned over Isreal’s security but look at he Jewish vote, 78% voted for Obama in the last election and an overwhelming majority of jews are expected to vote democratic again in the next election.  It’s been a trend going back for years.  What’s confusing to me as a christian, it seems christians are more concerned about Isreal’s future than most american jews??

    Its sad you are willing to throw out the Constitution simply to achieve you own “AGENDA” unlike Congressman Paul who measure all his positions by what the Constitution allows.

    Ron Pauls has two or three good Idea’s and a thousand bad ones. He hasnt got a clue as to how to keep this country safe. He thinks if he defunds our military that others will just leave us alone. He blames America for everything just like Obama and people (other than his 10%) will vote for him. Bachmann is a balanced patriotic Constitutionalist. I dont understand why Paul supporters cant back Bachmann if its constitutional conservatism they seek. Naaa I think Paul people are seeking something else and their support of RP proves it.

    GB is a hypocrite for posting a video about a drunk when he has admitted to being in AA.  Amd he wants to divide the country in half with a wall!  But I have actually tried to connect on common ground but people name call and like the division.  I have said from the beginning that this country will fail if we don’t work together and when you boil away all of the BS…most people wan the same thing.  Most people on here make up things and call me names for no reason.  I am not part of OWS but I do support the middle class ( now lower class) who have been robbed from corruption.  The problem is most people fail to see both sides are equally corrupt and only blame Obama and the middle class (OWS) which is wrong.  Yes there are a few bad apples but they would be that way no matter what.  They did not create this problem.  The rich elites ho who want more money and power did and it is both the Right and the Left.  If people fail to recognize this and think that the same corruption on the Right with the next election will change anything is highly mistaken.

    I see her as “The Devil Wears Prada.”  Michelle doesn’t care about the accuracy of her allegations against other candidates. Her bizarre attack against Rick Perry followed by the same kind of attack against Newt Gingrich is just silly.  Here’s why she won’t be President … she doesn’t have one drop of charisma.  And while Glenn gushes over Bachman … he’s lost sight of the prize and kicked a good candidate to the curb. 

  • Anonymous

    I could not agree more with Bachmann.  Newt Gingrich is indeed a Socialist, though he is also a Statist. 

    With that being said, Bachmann’s chances are not looking bright for 2012.  She stands strong on the issues, and has good morals.  But does not stand a chance in the current field of GOP candidates.  If she was smart, she should drop out and endorse someone who can win (anyone but Newt Gingrich or Mitt Romney).  But that is just my opinion…

    I am waiting for the day an American Muslim politician/candidate is undermine for his position on homosexuality and abortion.  To avoid riots in the street by the Islamic community … to avoid all h—  from breaking loose damage control by the liberal media will be where it is at … damage control meant to appease.

    If it wasn’t for the media and the lack of money Michele Bachmann would be
    leading in the poles. She has back bone to stand strong on her beliefs on public
    policy and her convictions in her love for God and biblical principals, which
    has a huge healthy impact in getting America back on track once again! Michele
    has a genuine love for Israel. Which by the way the one that said they didn’t
    care about Israel but cares about the US does not know history that America
    flourishes when US government officials embrace Israel in being allies of
    protection for them. I challenge those that are in favor for Michele to be a
    part of a online viral campaign! I believe Michele is the George Washington that
    Glen Beck has been searching for! The media needs to be blown away with a
    dramtic change in the political winds!

      Bachman  is our only choice! Newt talks an excellent game but cannot be trusted. Romney is too Liberal. Ron Paul will assure Nuclear War. Perry is as lost as a ball in high weeds! Michelle Bachman & Ron Paul are also the only ones who have openly supported the 2nd. amendment & signed their support to it!

    Actually, in actual fact, the vast majority of our founding fathers were specifically Christians.  Here’s a site for you that proves this historical FACT.

    http://www.adherents.com/gov/Founding_Fathers_Religion.html

    According to this site, I can count all the Founding Fathers who were deists on 1 hand.  Not only that, but they were Episcopolian Deists.  This means they were, in fact, Christian Deists.  This means they were still, in fact, Christians.  EVERY single one of the rest of our founding fathers professed to be a member of one particular Christian sect or another.  The vast majority, more than 50%, happened to be Episcopalian/Anglican.  Sorry if these historical facts fly in the face of your opinion there, but the historical fact is that not very many of our founding fathers were Deists, and those who were just so happened to be Christian Deists.  I’m just trying to correct some of your misinformation here is all.  Carry on.

    I also think it’s funny how you claim Paine and Franklin believed religion was something that held us back when their own writing prove the contrary is the case.  I mean, Franklin is a documented Episcopolian, for crying out loud.  Maybe if you pay attention to some historical facts rather than liberal talking points, you may realize this fact.

    USA won’t get on track because of a belief in god. This country isn’t a Christian country, and loving Christianity won’t help the country. What matters is the decisions they make and how they look at the issues. And about Israel, the US has always gone after good relations with Israel. America has also flourished when they weren’t allies with Israel, like when Israel didn’t exist.
