Palin Derangement Syndrome.

Not to mention, there's another president I can remember who came from nowhere (state-senate) and became pres.Who was that..... oh that's right, Obama Hussein.So I don't think that is as unlikely as you may think.

I know you know better.Race was by far the determining factor in his win. When you have a bingo 90% of the black vote automatic, not to mention Oprah and Powell throwing him love, based solely on race, well you get the picture.If you dont think race was the bingo card, Imagine the exact same dude, milky white with red hair, attempting the same thing.

No, I know for a fact Obama Hussein only got the pres because he was black. I think any rational person would agree with that. The reverse racism and white guilt was obvious at the polls. However, Michele has the gender card to play. The first WOMAN pres.Not to mention she is also bringing a much needed throw-back to the principles of the founding fathers to the table. I think her unabashed zeal for the founding principles of this country, her unapologetic love of God, and her clear brilliance....... combine all of that with her being a woman who isn't afraid to tell the libs to stuff their socialist bull and I think you have just as much rocket fuel as Obama Hussein had because he was the first pres who could play basketball.

Can we all just come together and agree that none of want any red heads in office?I think that cuts through party lines pretty well.

Palin is pretty much finished. Michele Bachmann has stolen her niche and does a better job at it.

Bachmann Not Ready To Be President, Her Former Chief Of Staff Writes

The Bachmann campaign and congressional offices I inherited were wildly out of control. Stacks upon stacks of unopened contributions filled the campaign office while thousands of communications from citizens waited for an answer. If she is unable, or unwilling, to handle the basic duties of a campaign or congressional office, how could she possibly manage the magnitude of the presidency?

Anyone under the assumption that the job of a candidate is to open the mail? Who's job would it be to ....manage...the office then? The candidate?No?Then who's job would it be?The campaign manager's maybe?Yes?That would explain why he was hired, because the former manager was a flake and she replaced him...I know a guy that was hired to take over a branch of a Starbucks that was a mess. They had completely screwed up their books, the place was a mess.I guess the people who sit on the board of Starbucks are not fit to run a coffee house because this branch was a mess...

Man do I LOVE liberals and their need for hate.Let's see the headlines of this story:Bachmann's husband got $137,000 in Medicaid fundsPresidential candidate has often blasted growing welfare programsWhy that HYPOCRITE. He was collecting tons of money for hisself...Or was he?

While Rep. Michelle Bachmann, R-Minn., has forcefully denounced the Medicaid program for swelling the "welfare rolls," the mental health clinic run by her husband has been collecting annual Medicaid payments totaling over $137,000 for the treatment of patients since 2005, according to new figures obtained by NBC News.

Oh her husband wasn't getting this money..the sick were where he is the boss.I don't get it, he is running a legal clinic helping people who need it, and using federal funds that are available to help people....and she is a bad person for not wanting to let these programs go unchecked in their growth?So if you are not for unchecked growth, then you want all money for all people stopped?I don't think that is her position...does anyone else?Anyone who doesn't get their news from PMSNBC I mean...you know, people that think.Here's the funniest thing.The left is going to do their best to hang Bachmann because her spouse's business that treats poor sick people got $150K a year through legal means of attaining money set aside for this express purpose.But they are completely willing to give a pass to Senator Feinstein's husband to get his hands on hundreds of millions of dollars for himself.

On the day the new Congress convened this year, Sen. Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation to route $25 billion in taxpayer money to a government agency that had just awarded her husband's real estate firm a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms, the Washington Times reported on Tuesday.

This is not the first time her husband has profited directly from government contracts either.But Bachmann's husband legally got money to help poor sick people and she was unaware of the conditions of what her husband's business does....BURN HER!

It has nothing to do with being legal. It's that she wants to get rid of programs like this and lied about whether they received money from them. She seems to be unaware of just about anything. But I guess that's a virtue in neocon land. Here's another fun article.http://news.yahoo.com/fact-check-bachmann-...-205945347.html

[FCP Bob 1,312]

Bachman is either a pants on fire liar or just willfully ignorant about facts and doesn't give a shit what she says as long as it fits the message that she wants to convey. Either scenario is really troubling for somebody wanting to lead the country.Her Husband's clinic getting funds from government programs isn't a problem. Her lying about it is.

[Pot Odds RAC 23]

...her spouse's business that treats poor sick people got $150K a year...

Wasn't it $137K TOTAL since 2006?

[CaneBrain 95]

Her Husband's clinic getting funds from government programs isn't a problem. Her lying about it is.

She has Sarah Palin's "never let the facts get in the way of a good narrative" disease. This is the same woman who started the lie that Obama's trip to India was going to cost billions, the same woman who claimed that Obama emptied the entire strategic oil reserve (he released roughly 4%), the same woman who claimed Obama has issued one drilling permit his whole presidency (he has issued thousands). These are such mendacious statements that calling them lies seems understated. Mega-lies? Her and the truth have a very complicated relationship. I hope Bachmann visits Boston so we can find out how Paul Revere's ride was really an allegory about the dangers of Roe v. Wade.

I agree that she's said some stupid things and some just totally wrong things. I'm not bothered by this Medicaid topic at all. She apparently doesn't fully understand the financial aspects of her husband's clinic, so maybe she got some details wrong. There's no incentive for her to lie about it or cover it up since what the clinic is doing seems legitimate. It is not uncommon at all for people to not totally get how all the financial aspects of a business work even when being an owner of the business.But yeah, she's said some dumb things before. I don't want her anywhere near a presidential election.

Yeah, the clinic issue is minor compared to some of the other things that she's lied about and in this case it's possible that there is a misunderstanding.

[Balloon guy 158]

Yeah, the clinic issue is minor compared to some of the other things that she's lied about and in this case it's possible that there is a misunderstanding.

But it is precisely this particular 'headline' and fervent desire to 'get her' about this issue that tells me that I can probably ignore most of the rest of them.Her husband's business, not hers, is doing things she probably doesn't know about.But to SS and his ilk, she is LYING and WANTS TO CUT ALL THESE PROGRAMS COMPLETELY. Two completely false allegations created out of thin air.Neither of which is true, and the fact that this is where they go to immediately shows the rapidness of their hate.I will now probably vote for Bachmann in my primaries...over Palin.Because she is a pretty good person, as shown to me by her willingness to bring 23 foster kids into her home and give them a chance. The only children Clinton brought into his home were baby sitters that he impregnated.Being against unchecked growth is just icing on the cake.

[Skeleton Jelly 2]

It's not enough that she's taking Federal money, she also needs to get her hands on some state money too. Despicable.

[Balloon guy 158]

I heard she got at least 3 pedicures during this time, which of course means she used the government money and took food out of the mouths of children to have her nails done.If she would just wear a dog fur coat she would be Cruela Deville

[akoff 0]

Liberals should want her to run and win the primary, she is one of the few and shrinking people BHO could beat.last election we as country made the biggest mistake in generations (well some us that can see the forrest the trees didn't but many of you guys did) by voting these clowns into power. People are finally starting to realize how stupid they were (well many of them at least but not so much on here) and the left is going to attack her? Please do and make sure you don't miss.nobody really thinks that she would be good or viable that i am aware of...except for BG and he is just tormmenting you guys and doing a fine job of it! i don't think the GOP winner is in the race yet...kind of like BHO wasn't in the race at this point 4 years ago.

[colonel Feathers 5]

Wow, just wow,Guess its time for a Bachman derangement syndrome thread.If it wasnt for Libs, there would be no comedy in life.Please keep these non issue attacks coming, so I know who may be able to defeat Barack"57 states visited" Obama.

I know, the last couple years have taught us what that kind of leader gets us to....

[colonel Feathers 5]

So Bachman is being lambasted for wanting to cut a program that benifits her husband?

[hblask 1]

This "you benefited from a program you dislike" is one of the stupidest criticisms around. According to that theory, everyone in the Soviet Union should've supported their political system, because everyone received some benefit from it.When the government controls as much of the economy as it does, it's nearly impossible to avoid receiving some benefit. That doesn't mean it's a NET benefit to either that individual or society as a whole. If you are going to provide medical care for the poor, it is impossible to avoid getting some federal money. So I guess the left's theory is that because the nanny state is so big, only leftists should do charitable work.It's a ridiculous theory, and anyone who espouses it should be embarrassed.

[hblask 1]

The point: if you want to make it a fair test, do it this way: you can opt out of any federal program you want AND opt out of the taxes that pay for that program. Then, if you still benefit from it, at least the hypocrisy argument carries a small amount of weight.But taking 25-40% of people's income and then saying "if you don't like us taking that much you are on your own and can't get any of that back" is really stupid.
