Wow. That's really unfair.

She should have said "most liberals" ... "all" is just too broad.

Not just un, but anti to boot.

She is a religious zealot is all, everything but their way is always Anti-[insert view].

And I am always pleased when they give these asshats airtime so the rest of America can see how truly detached from reality the far right in this country has become.

Please tell me you are kidding... the unbolded part is very much up for debate considering she just alienated millions of Americans. She might be smart but the words coming out of her mouth scream dumbass.

I swear to God there is barely anything worse than a pig ignorant Republican spouting sh*t like this. Send them to Iraq to go fight their bullsh*t.

She's like a brunette clone of Ann Coulter. Same long neck, same glazed-over look in her eyes, same insane paranoia about the people who disagree with her.

Oh shit, I'm not surprised. She's from my hometown. Unfortunately, I moved about eight months ago and can no longer vote against her because I'm not in that district anymore.

She's terrible. A religious nutcase that makes Bush look like an agnostic.

She must study from the Book of Coulter.

Some years ago, Coulter said on Real Time, "Liberals can not enjoy sex."

I mean seriously....the simplest definitions of the words: "liberal" vs "conservative."

...WTF?

I can imagine kissing her would be like sticking your tongue in a bowl of vomit.

Wow, I watched the response to Bachmann and even Pat Buchanan wasn't convinced. He might be so right wing the GOP won't touch him, but even he doesn't think liberals are anti-American.

In a matter of hours, her opponent has raised $30,000 dollars. Democracy at work.

I've been looking for a poll to see how she is doing in this years election, can't find one. In 2006 she got 50 percent of the vote, the Dem about 44 and 6 percent to a third party. So if there is no third party, you gotta hope she gets sh*t canned this year.

$50 of that was from me :)

I don't live in that district anymore (wish I did) but I did find some information that she's raised many times more money than her opponent, so I figured the dude needed some help.

Most recent poll shows Bachmann ahead 42-38. It's too bad that my former neighbors continue to support this wench. Hopefully this puts a damper on her momentum.

That is disgusting, If she represented my constituency she would receive an earful from me.

Right now, the Republicans will do and say anything to move the spotlight away from the economy. Hey the cultural wars worked before, maybe they will work in this election cycle.
