Michele Bachmann's Islamophobic Witch Hunt
posted by Ed Staff | Friday, July 20, 2012

Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Michele Bachmann is on a xenophobic, hate-filled, bigoted witch hunt against Islam and making outrageous and unfounded allegations against a Hillary Clinton aide and others in an attempt to make President Obama appear unAmerican. Bachmann is a black mark on America's character. The people of Minnesota should be ashamed to have such a racist, bigoted congresswoman as their representative in Congress.

Michelle Bachmann need's to Resign immediately!!!!

Bachmann's rhetoric is dangerous & in my opinion puts Huma Abedin's life at risk............Huma has been recieving death threats as a result of Bachmann's smear attack against her..................Bachmann must resign........enough is enough...time for the Radical Republican Party to stop this type of dangerous political FOX NEWS type rhetoric!!!!!!!!!!

Bachmann is exactly where the huge money, Adelson and Koch, is going. She expresses their views to the "T" for teagaggers.She's an embarrassment to herself, her district, and America in general. What is wrong with these people?

These mega rich want only what's good for them and they really don't care about anything else, because, remember the old saying "if it's good for General Motors, it's good for the country." Thier racial and political views have never changed. Daddy Koch started the John Birch Society, which decent, honest (yes there used to be a few) conservatives repudiated, sending them underground until W and company came along. The other thing that sent them underground? Their hand in the murder of JFK..

TAX THE RICH, these people are ruthless and will stop at nothing. You see, they still don't have ALL our wealth!

If some of these brain dead zombies will recall, what is the reason we became so entrenched into the Middle East and the Muslim religion??? OIL!!! NOTHING BUT OIL!!!

We're over there exploiting a natural resource because of our out of control consumption. And we want it cheap. Remember how Bush promised that if we invaded Iraq we'd be getting real cheap gasoline because we would control the oil??? How's that one working out for you Ms. Bachmann??? Not only is it not cheaper, it's higher than its ever been. The speculators just keep manipulating the prices to control all of us.

These politicians would not have given two hoots about the Middle East or Muslims if it wasn't for the almighty oil business. I wish more Americans would remember that.

Ron, I had to defriend someone too---funny. They use facebook to expouse their hatred. Good for you for standing up to their bs. I don't doubt they will blame Obama for the drought. But not global warming---still burying their heads in the sands. What about the farmers? Have they gotten the message yet? All they want is more socialism (oh sorry, government subsidy) for their failing crops. But darn the Democrats and their love of big government. Just give me mine and to heck with the rest of those people. As my sister said, "I deserve it (government medical assistance)" but she sees red if an immigrant is given any assistance. How selfish and greedy a society we have become. There is no reason Romney would want to be President unless he wants to make sure laws are enacted to protect his wealth. Give him the boot!!!

This is the hate talk that is fueling the political views of people who dont want to know or care for the truth and facts. I had a friend on facebook I unfriended yesterday for a post and his remarks he made after I told him lets be fair and lay some blame on the gop and tea baggers in congress for the country problems not being solved. He came back and said he didnt care about being fair but just wanted the RAG out of office. The term RAG is what people here use for muslums and he was calling the president a muslum and non american by this remarks. I know this guy and I didnt get the idea he was a racist and birther type, but I sure figured it out quickly. This hate is what idiots like this so called public figure, rush limp-paw, beck, and the so called news people at foxie breed in this country. The idiot cop from Az. now wants the micro film, and he has spent tax payer dollars to send people over there to get a look at the records. I am fed up of the hate machine on the right and it is being fed by people like rove, the kochs, the donald, and others with the money to spread the hate and lies about others because of their wealth and citizens united. These men and women dont give a damn about the country all they care about is their wealth and power.....

CHANGE OF SUBJECT IN AWAY; I just read a short news story about the drought and gas prices going up. The main reason is for the ethanol junk the oil company adds to our gas. I am waiting for the gop saying the drought is the president's fault because of his FAILED WEATHER POLICIES or that it is because g-d is mad at us because we have this evil muslum president. Just sayin that these people will use his so called un american policies and un american religion, and that is why we are are going to pay more for gas.

I have no idea why this person did the shooting in Co. and untll we do I will hold my judgement on why. But in today's world the idea of violence like this is something that can happen. Look to the movies, the games, and what 11 years of war will do to people who feel rejected and have no reason not to hate the people who have what they dont have. Ed Rendell the ex gov. of Penn. said it this morning: one hold judgement on why, after this and other shooting people on the nra side of gun control need to rethink and say what does a real hunter and sportsman need assualt weapons for,

and finally for us oldsters who remember hoppy, roy rogers, superman, and other heros of our time never killed the bad guys but disarmed them and put them in jail, and the bad guys did alot of shooting but never really hit or killed people many people in the movies. The nation is becoming where violence is excepted as a everyday event.

just my humble views

Michele Bachmann has gone to far this time...................she needs to resign!!!!

Bachmann has a long history of this type of disgusting type of behavior & it has become a pattern....................she is more concerned about her celebrity status than serving the people of Minnesota in her district.................Bachmann spends too much time in front of the cameras saying crazy stuff meant to mislead the public & smear others for media attention........time to resign and get a job on FOX NEWS where you belong!!!!

Minnesota keeps putting the psycho shrimp in office. What are you going to do? The 'I'm more American than you are' card from the teas is getting real old. Ask Bachman how much money she got from the state for all the fosters she and hubby ran through their house, or the quarter million or so in farm subsidies they recieved years back. Milking the system the American way.

She is a figgin nut! What more can be said? In view of the shooting last night in Aurora, CO, her rhetoric is what is Un-American. It is the hate-filled talk of the GOP/TeaBaggers that sets people like James Holmes off. A rational person can see through the bs but some of our more deranged fellow citizens cannot. I am just assuming at this time what his agenda was for the killing rampage last night but talk like the Romneys and Michelle Bachmanns of the GOP doesn't help. With the Rush Limbaugh rant on the movie it is probably a little of both. My son went to see the movie last night, I am so thankful that James Holmes did not live in my hometown. We have NO business trying to bridge the gap between the Sunnis and the Shiites when the gap between the Democrats and GOP is getting so much worse. I was so moved my President Obama's speech regarding the incident in Fort Myers, FL (?). The whole country should reflect on his words about the fragility of life and how we treat one another. Greed has taken over this country and Mitt Romney is the poster child of GREED.
