Media Attempt To Marginalize Michelle Bachmann Gets Into Swing

Written By : William Teach

One question surrounding Michelle Bachmann is “will she or won’t she run for president in 2012?” (I’m hoping she will) Another is “how much influence will she have on the GOP politics of the next two years, keeping the GOP on the road they were elected to follow?” Obviously, both questions are worrisome to the Liberals in the media. They aren’t so worried about the 2012 elections and how to destroy another women (they know their sycophants on the Left will ignore the blatant sexism), but, they are concerned about Conservatives keeping the GOP on the straight and narrow

Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann has had an epic week.

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia was her guest at a closed-door session on the Constitution, and her tea party rebuttal to the State of the Union exploded on the cable networks, allowing her to grab the spotlight as a standard-bearer for the conservative movement. Cable chatterers and newspapers talked just as much about Bachmann as they did about the official Republican responder, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.

And therein lies the challenge for Republicans.

For all of Speaker John Boehner’s efforts to stage-manage the opening days of the Republican House, handpick his inner circle and keep his party on message, Bachmann keeps jumping into the fray. The tea party loves her, the media promotes her, and she is a huge draw on the fundraising circuit.

Obviously, this must not bode well, right?

The GOP strategy, in fact, seems to be to treat her like any other member of the House Republican Conference.

Ask anyone in the newly minted House Republican leadership about the telegenic Minnesotan, and all you’ll get is a dismissive shrug.

Boehner didn’t even tune in for her performance on CNN.

“No, I did not; I had other obligations,” Boehner said Wednesday when asked whether he watched Bachmann’s address.

The story continues on with a few Republicans somewhat upset over her SOTU response. The entire point is to attempt to marginalize Bachmann, so that her message will be dismissed and ignored, by saying that even Republicans are upset with her. Love her or hate her, she is an attention getter, and much harder to destroy than the media’s favorite target of sexism, Sarah Palin. And she will smack around the Republican leadership when they fail to perform, and deviate from the road they were elected on.

Michelle Bachmann is even less Presidential than Sarah Palin.

Bring her on!

And on that, I agree. Sarah Palin is MUCH more Presidential that Bachmann.

Or Obama for that matter!

That’s not much praise, considering what a kook BTO is.

Obama is so out of your league you’re playing pee wee politics while the Democrats try to fix the problems your party created over the last 30 years, in spite of your party’s obstructionism.

Half term and BTO are the Sonny and Cher of politics. I’m sure you know which is which.

StanW

Funny how when you highlight something you think is bad, the Republicans have been in charge over the last 30 years (WHICH IS A LIE), yet you want to take credit for anything you like in the same time period as a Democrat WIN.

Palin is a MUCH better leader than Obama ever could be. That is why during the campaign, the Left attacked Palin, the VP choice, instead of McCain, who was actually running against Obama.

Pathetic and cowardly.

And as far as kooks go, your party if FULL OF THEM.

Obama quit as well crthns, remember. So save your high-and-mighty attitude.

@ what_a_tard You don’t get promoted in politics, dipshit. He quit the Legislative branch to take a job in the Executive. He was elected to serve 6 years in the Senate, he quit to look for a different job.

To be promoted he would have been moved up to a new position in the Senate, you know like a committee chair or to Speaker. That’s a promotion, leaving the Senate to serve elsewhere is quitting.

Obama = ’1/3rd Term’

Last I checked 1/2 is greater than 1/3
Guest

The conservative theory of trickle own economics has guided this country’s economic system for 30 years. No rational person would dispute that.

When democrats have been in charge (Bill Clinton is the only instance prior to Obama) the economy did great with higher tax rates, and Clinton left a budget surplus. Would have done even better if your party didn’t get in his way over a petty personal issue. Obama’s turn at the helm stopped the slide which was certain to continue under McCrankypants.

Palin is a self-serving princess who has dedicated her life to herself, like a typical republican. Obama took the high road of community leadership that is the bread and butter of this country. And you dismiss it, because you are attracted to Palin’s looks, and like a typical man thinking with TheDick rather than the brain.

My party is diverse. The people you call kooks are thought of as friends by everyone around them. What does that say about you? You are petty, judgmenetal, and ignorant? Of course.

Actually King there was a surplus, only in your world was that not the case. HOwever facts are stubborn things, because they are real and not made up. The surplus was real, has almost every economist has verified. Nice try though at re-writing history, perhaps you should be on Bachmans team as she tried to tell us that the founding fathers were all about getting rid of slavery. Then tries to use John Quincy Adams as an example. Last time I checked John Quincy Adams wasnt one of the founders.
TW

WOW that first paragraph has more false logic than one should be allowed to put into a post. The Reagan policies facilitated the fastest and largest period of economic growth in the history of this nation, maybe the world. All Clinton had to do was not muck it up too bad, which the Republican Congress was able to ensure. That person issue you talked about was more about lying under oath, placing himself in a position to be distracted at the least and blackmailed or worse, breaking the trust of the American people and parading that sleaze in front of the children of this nation. Really? to pass it off as some inconsequential thing is trivializing it way too much. If IO or you do it, no one knows but our families and friends and since we are nobodys really, so what, nothing to see. But the leader of the Free World is held to a higher standard. Too bad comes with thejob. the rest of your screed is personal attacks and innuendo that doesn’t even bear digniying with a response. By the way diverse? Worng o buck-o. Dixiecrats. I know diversity, I have witnessed it first hand in combat and peace, you have no idea what diversity is. It certainly isn’t assurance of equal outcomes, or standing idle while some one different from me murders and robs, legally and illegally, me, my family or anyone. You sir are a Jack Ass!

This is the same woman who believes the abolition of slavery was written in the Constitution by the Founding Fathers, correct?

StanW

Quote, please!

Anonymous

“Bachmann: We know that was slavery that was still tolerated when the nation began. We know that was an evil and a block and a stain upon our history. But we also know that the very founders that wrote those documents worked tirelessly until slavery was no more in the united states. and i think it is high time that we recognize the contribution of our fore-bearers who worked tirelessly, men like John Quincy Adams, who would not rest until slavery was extinguished in the country.”

John Quincy Adams was anti-slavery and worked to abolish such. But the original Constitution created by the founders recognized slaves as 3/5 of a person with regards to taxation. Nevermind that many of the founders were actually slave owners. Granted, the Bachmann quote was taken out of context a bit but she still didn’t really have a cluse as to what she was talking about.
StanW

“…that ALL MEN are created equal”.

And the 3/5th Compromise was the Anti-Slavery position to deny slave-holding states greater representation.

Bachmann had more that a clue, despite some hyperbole. Any middle school history student woudl know that!

Anonymous

You do realize, don’t you, that the decision to count a slave as 3/5 of a person was in order to reduce the influence of slaveholders? Full recognition would have increased the political power of the slaveholding class.
Anonymous

Thank you for confirming that Bachman never said the abolition of slavery was written into the Constitution by the Founding Fathers.

In other words, you lied.

http://www.thepiratescove.us/ William_Teach

Um, it was. Section 9, Article 1, was designed to make it illegal to import any more slaves starting in 1808, which was intended to slowly erode the practice of slavery.

The idea in counting slaves as 3/5ths a person was intended to say “um, yeah, they are actually people”, to the Southern slave holding states, eroding their ability to deem them as simply chattel.

StanW

Actually, Mr. Teach, the 3/5th Compromise was the ANTI-Slave position. The slave-holding states wanted slaves to count as whole people so that they woudl get a greater number of representatives. It was the people opposed to slavery that made them 3/5 as a slap to the pro-slavery position.
Anonymous

According to the Constitution, it was done for taxation purposes.
StanW

According to the Constitution, it was done for “Representatives and direct Taxes”, crsrds.Learn to read, please.
Anonymous

Not sure. Many of the founders of the original COnstitution owned slaves. I’m sure they wanted their states to get more representatives by recognizing a slave as an actual person. Those opposed to slavery would still see the benefit of recognizing slaves as an actual person when the number of Representatives from their respective state increased.
StanW

Which is my point EXACTLY.

Slavers and the slave-holding states wanted slaves counted as full people so that they woudl get greater representation in the new government. But there were sufficient people so opposed to slavery that they forced the compromise in order to deny slave-holding states that representative advantage, thus signaling the beginning of the end of slavery.

You made my point, and proved that Bachmann was right.
Anonymous

Stan, you’re right about the 3/5 clause in the Constitution…

My bad. Maybe I learned a little humility over the time I haven’t posted here.

Bottom line – the founders who wrote the Constitution did not work tirelessly to abolish slavery. Most of them owned slaves. Acknowledging slavery in the Constitution is very different than working tirelessly to abolish it.

Most of the founders worked

And as I said, Bachmann employed a bit of hyperbole in her speech.

Damn those slave-abolishing people! How right the slavers were, in wanting full voting rights for people who weren’t allowed to vote! It makes total sense.

And thanks, Stan, for coming in on the side of the slave-owners. They’re a proud group who really don’t get the support they deserve.
StanW

You are an idiot, CowGirl. I did not support slave owners, I explained to you and your ilk how wrong you all were about the 3/5 Compromise. You like to revise history and make it be what you want it to be.

Liberals site the 3/5 Compromise as supposed proof that our Founding Fathers did not view slaves as whole people. Yet, the 3/5 Compromise is the ANTI-Slave position.

You are allowed your own opinion, not your own truth.

Recsognizing slaves as 3/5 of a person was done for taxation purposes and not to recognize them as actual people.

Article I, Section. 2 [Slaves count as 3/5 persons]
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons [i.e., slaves].

Joetote

Of course they want to marginalize her and anyone else with so called ties to the Tea Party as they call it. and anyone with their head out of the sand will realize this will come form both sides!

The Tea Party movement is not a fight for the heart and soul of the Republican party! A co-opted media led by a hard core left wing wanna be dictatorship government would want you to believe that it is in fact all about the Republicans. And they would be dead wrong! The Tea Party movement is a fight for the heart and soul of our country! It is a fight to return us to what made us the greatest country in the world! How sad that entrenched politicians on the right along with the garbage on the left cannot or refuse to understand such a basic tenet!

Sometime ago I wrote something that in reading it again, I realize in my own way that it is what the Tea Party is in fact all about. We want our country back! And if it takes a revolution, in this case at the ballot box, so be it!

“Our country is suffering a slow death as we do not have a leadership with enough moral fiber or belief in our ideals to stand up to it. They only condemn what will hurt them, not caring a wit about the electorate.! This is not what my forefathers fought to give us!

Before the lefties get their panties in a bunch, I state again. As has been the case since he has been in office, Obama’s administration has chosen to talk down to or ignore the general populace! As the electorate ( the barely 50% that even bothered) was stupid enough to allow this man to be voted in due to their own refusal to take their jobs a voters seriously, this is the kind of government you get.

It has been pointed out more then once that the president and his minions do not care what the silent majority thinks. Which brings us to:

For the purposes of this discussion! This is not just a protest against the extreme left policies being put forth by this administration. I’m of the belief that the silent majority has finally opened it’s eyes to not only the hypocrisy of the current administration, but also to the blatant abuse of power by all career politicians of either stripe! The current administration at this minute is the whipping boy of record, and rightfully so! But that is only the tip of the iceberg! The abuses of power, the lies, the idiocy goes back for years, on both sides. the electorate chose to ignore it as is normally the case in this country.

Freedom comes at a cost, not just in fighting for it on the battle fields! The electorate, snuggled in their comfort zone ignored the fact that their elected officials, the ones that promised and lied over and over were in fact consolidating power to themselves! Then, shock! The people suddenly discovered their officials were acting more like royalty!

So this is where it’s at folks! We have a completely unresponsive government. They easily talk down to us. They have bankrupted this country with their insane policies! But it’s not just money wise that this has happened. Our current elected officials of both parties are bankrupt of ideals! They are bankrupt morally! They have completely lost sight of the United States of America, her dreams and her ideals!

Not in harsh terms, always as something silly, like Obama’s mom jeans. That is still rare. I have a problem with Obama’s policies, and that is what I attack him on, not his ears. And I take issue with Conservatives who attack him personally.

But, with the hard left, they attack the person, not the policies. And that is where our politics have become harsh and uncivil.

Her Dad was disappointing in the last election. Selected as the nominee because the elite thought it his turn and the MSM was all too happy to chose our candidate for us. I think if the Republicans stick to their conservative roots, and stop being so wishy washy, 2012 will be another shellacking. By the way I deeply resent the characterization of Ms. McCain. What is wrong with being a poor man? I consider myself one. I work three jobs, have a side business and a military retirement. I like both Palin and Bachmann so what am I to make of that.

Gentlemen Obama didnt quit, he got promoted. Palin quit, couldnt handle it, she wasnt promoted, she quit, mid term.

I find it interesting that people who leave before their term’s expiration date are “quitters.” The only exception is when they move to another branch of the federal government, then they are “promoted.”

The conclusion is obvious: the only jobs you libs honor is government jobs as Democratic operatives. As expected, you ridicule those who work in the private sector.

The main reason why Palin quit is because of the relentless attacks of her family by people like you, crs. You have posted here several times proclaiming your sick sexual fantasies with Palin’s children.

If Obama was “promoted,” as you claim then why hasn’t he fixed the economy? A promotion would require more responsibility so you’re admitting that the economy’s failures are not Bush’s. Obama chose to become president and has failed after two years in office.

Thank you for walking right into that one, dumbass.

Two things King, I have never made a comment about Palins children, so STFU. Also the economy is starting to get better or have you not been paying attention. 1.6 to 1.8 million jobs in the private sector have been created under Obama, the Dow Jones Average just topped 12,000 for the first time since 2008. Consumer spending is starting to increase.

I think your gains are shortsighted and based on false data. We lost so much of our economy and wealth, specifically the housing market and through the stock crashes. That is gone forever. Kind of what I was saying to what_s up. With basic prices going through the roof like they are, especially gas and food, we will really be hurting soon. Just my opinion but I think the only reason we were able to survive the last few years was because the price of gas stabilized a bit. Had it remained at $4 a gallon before we would not have been able to absorb the hit. That was our biggest tax break in the last 4 years. Not all Obama’s fault but damn we have to turn around soon or it is over. Like I said good luck, please pass the life preserver down the line if you want to stay on the ship.

TW

so let’s see the rich who can afford to invest got richer. Good. Your jobs numbers are dubious to say the least. gaining 1.6 or even 1.8, after losing so many in the last three years, and yes I am including the Bush last year, plus so many being government jobs. On Main Street things are terrible and getting worse. Gas and Food are skyrocketing, most people are working twice as hard for the same money if not less. I could care less about your politics but when you view things only as they impact you or what you have said or done, that is narcissism plain and simple. This is going to painful regardless of what is done. Anyone with half a brain knows that. I’m not pointing at you specifically, you have an opinion and seem intelligent enough, just giving you another point of view.

That was unfair. I actually buy her explanation that she didn’t want to continue to answer the ethics questions. She answered several at great cost and was vindicated in all of them and it is likely she would have prevailed in the others. the expense was great and distracting. She had a chance to make alot more money and she took it. I took a job because i needed it and then 8 months later was offered half again as much money. While I loved the first job, I took the money obviously. Don’t get too excited it was only a 22K bump and I had to move to a major metro area. My point is, she made a calculated decision. Yes, technically she quit but it had nothing to do with not being able to meet the challenges. that’s fair no?.

You libs need to get off this “she quit” thing already. She decided she didn’t want to put up with the BS ethics investigations, that she already prevailed in, and she had an opportunity to make alot more money. Very much like a Senator who decides to run for the Presidency. See…..not a stretch…….no controversy….no name calling. now if we want to talk qualifications, that is a different story. Obama, never really spent alot of time in the Senate, about 83 days before declaring himself a candidate and starting his run. So even there 2 yrs vs. 83 days. Only 2 yrs as a state legislator I think, could be wrong on that. My other comments above stand alone I think. We definitely have to turn the ship. Good luck, please pass the life preserver down the line if you want to stay on the ship. I know I said that already but I like the analogy…..go look it up.
