Michele Bachmann Dismisses MSNBC

As the corrupt liberal establishment that produced Comrade Obama continues to fail our country, it will give way to alternatives that are more responsive to our needs. An example is journalism, where upstart Fox News continues to smoke the duckspeaking propagandists that comprise its entrenched competition. Unless prevented by totalitarian means, political representation will follow suit, with sharp-witted patriots like Michele Bachmann shoving debauched dinosaurs like Bonnie Fwank along toward the tar pits. NewsBusters[1] reports on Rep. Bachmann laying waste to the ankle-biting Establishmentarians at MSNBC:

Over the past two years, MSNBC — the so-called “place for politics” has had a fascination with the congresswoman from Minnesota’s Sixth District.

And some of those attacks have been against her family[2], others borderline misogynistic[3]. However, GOP Rep. Michelle Bachmann told a group of conservative bloggers at The Heritage Foundation on Oct. 6[4] she really wasn’t concerned about MSNBC, and noted how poorly the network does in the ratings.

“Quite honestly, I don’t even know anything about MSNBC,” Bachmann said. “It’s not a network that I watch and most of the American people agree with that assessment. They aren’t watching it either. And that’s why Fox’s ratings — I mean it’s like CNN, CNBC, MSNBC combined. I think Fox even exceeded one of the major networks last week. They’re on the ascendency.”

Establishment media apparatchiks fear another Sarah Palin in Bachmann, so they snipe at her incessantly. But she’s unimpressed with their attempts to bring her down:

For so long, they have established the rules of media. And we’re all supposed to cower in fear of these guys. I didn’t fear my own editorial boards in Minneapolis/St. Paul when I lived there. I’m certainly not going to fear the likes of Keith Olbermann.

From its inception, America has always been about people with principles overcoming staggering odds to free themselves from bloated authoritarians. Patriots stood up to the British Empire; they should have no problem dealing with the left-wing weenies staffing MSDNC.
