I don't she lacks intelligence, but I know she lacks integrity and I wonder whether she also lacks loyalty and patriotism. I would like to see the House of Representatives take disciplinary action against her. I know that.

The DNC's response to Bachmann and the Tea Party she's largely responsible for:

"If the Republican party wants to make Michele Bachmann the voice of the party, that's more than fine with us. We'll help circulate the petition. But it is surprising that after Congressman-elect Owens won a special election by supporting the President's agenda in a New York district that hasn't elected a Democrat since Benjamin Harrison was President, that the Republican party would continue to allow itself to be led around by nose by the likes of Bachmann, Beck , Limbaugh, Palin and the rest of the extreme tea party crowd. It's their extreme right-wing, rigid ideological agenda that has Americans leaving the Republican Party in droves - and so, if displays like today are what they think is a smart political strategy, all we can say is: go for it," said DNC National Press Secretary Hari Sevugan.

Intelligence? Hmm... I guess it depends on the goal. <s>

My four-legged friends are also more intelligent than Michelle Bachmann because they'll take care of each other in times of distress instead of just look out for themselves.  [Like Republicans?]

She is dumb and crazy. Most of her GOP friends also think she is nuts.

I can’t really believe that the National Republican Party thinks that Michelle, Rush, and Sarah Palin are the direction that will get them back in power. There is no doubt that some people think Michelle and friends, are wonderful, but not most people.

I can’t figure out how anyone can vote for her. She is pretty and if you don’t think about what she says.............

I thought Representative Backman looked positively angelic speaking in support for the Stupek Amendment. My wife was impressed by her also until I changed the channel. I informed her of Representative Backman's unpatriotic activities "calling for revolution" previous to the vote. I think she and people like her are potential traitors. I think she will do anything to pander to the plutocracy and carry its water, no matter whether its rich businessmen in the US, oil rich Sultans and Shieks, or rich and powerful Chinese communist apparati.

They're counting on people not thinking and only looking at the "pretty" photogenic package.

<<I can’t really believe that the National Republican Party thinks that Michelle, Rush, and Sarah Palin are the direction that will get them back in power.>>

I can believe it. Remember back during the last election when it came to the point that everyone was saying voters could no longer be swayed one way or the other? They had made up their minds, and that was that.

Things haven't changed. The same people who bought into all the lies are still buying them, along with being frightened by the GOP's fear tactics. Last night we watched yet another ad by a pro-Republican group trying to scare seniors by saying the Medicare benefits would leave them without care.

The Republicans use fear to control the voters, and they use the likes of Michelle Bachmann, Beck, Limbaugh and any other loud mouth they can promote.

<<I thought Representative Backman looked positively angelic speaking in support for the Stupek Amendment.>>

That's what makes these people so dangerous. The Glen Becks and Rush Limbaughs have their tricks, too; they try and make everyone think that they're really just trying to look out for them and have their best interests at heart. People aren't thinking properly - if at all - and are failing to note that these clowns are really all about ratings and enlarging their own pocketbooks. They could care less about Mr. and Mrs. John Smith.

>>My wife was impressed by her also until I changed the channel. I informed her of Representative Backman's unpatriotic activities "calling for revolution" previous to the vote. I think she and people like her are potential traitors.<<

I'm so glad you changed the channel. Often, that's all it takes. Backmann's good at the call for revolution. She's been at it for some time now, and has seen that it works on poor unsuspecting people who've been frightened of change by the likes of Backmann and others.

The rest of the GOP call her insane behind her back, but were more than willing to stand up by her during her “party.” BTW, they missed a vote on an amendment on the so called Patriot Act, and as a result their amendment was defeated. Shows what is important to them, and it isn’t their country. Grandstanding is what it was.

Michelle is a very pretty woman, and her voice is sweet, if you don’t listen too carefully to what she says. She says some of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

I don’t know about the corrupt. But, in three years of being in Congress she has gone through about 17 staff members, including her latest Chief of Staff. When the boss in nuts, you have to get out.

The people she appeals to don’t think. Their ideas are just those heard on Fox and Company

You are right, there are only a few people who can be changed. Barack won by expanding the electorate.

I mean: I believe Fox News is run by a bunch of traitors. Switching through last night to try and pick up coverage of Hurricane Ida. I thought I would give Fox another chance and low and behold they had a program called "War Stories" with Oliver North as its host.

So far as I'm concerned, she's a god damned traitor.

We don’t need to get that personal. We do have enough to criticize with her comments and actions in the House.
