Michele Bachmann must be doing something right. She’s scared the pants off moonbats all the way over in England:

Bachmann, at 53, is a darling of the so-called Tea Party movement, which has campaigned vociferously against healthcare reform, the economic stimulus package and legislation to combat climate change. Her followers have been behind mass rallies in Washington and smaller ones all over the country. She has emerged as one of the most visible politicians in America, frequently appearing on the conservative Fox News channel, whose hosts often champion her causes.

She is part of an increasingly visible “female brand” of conservatism that is rising in America in the wake of the election of Obama. They include notable syndicated commentators such as Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter, whose dislike for liberals has grown ever more shrill in recent months. And, of course, Palin herself. …

All these women express a mood of conservative discontent that is becoming increasingly vocal and, some experts warn, extreme.

The Unnamed Experts have spoken once again.

What’s so extreme about Michele Bachmann? She has voiced concern about Chairman Zero’s paramilitary “volunteer” programs; she has noted the undeniable fact that Obama holds socialist views; she doesn’t pretend to believe in the global warming hoax; she has used the term “gangster government” to describe our gangster government, which greedily expropriates half the wealth we produce; she’s Christian; and she has done her part to block Big Government’s attempted seizure of the healthcare industry.

Such extreme statements and beliefs have made Bachmann a figure of both fun and fear among liberal Americans, especially in her home state of Minnesota. “It is hard to think that people take her seriously. But on a national level it is happening. It scares me,” said Aaron Landry, a senior correspondent at MNpublius.com, a Minnesota-based politics blog.

To quote Ghandi:

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.

Fear has made the ridicule shrill. The liberal elite establishment is moving on to the fighting stage against patriots like Michele Bachmann.
