I have a tip on an Anti-American member of Congress. A letter to Michele Bachmann.
Dear Congresswoman Bachmann,

So I hear that you want an investigation into members of Congress that hold Anti-American sentiment, well I have some information that is going to blow your socks off. I know of a prominent member of Congress who is currently facing a tough reelection battle, and has cited a person who has encouraged acts of terrorism and political assassinations as her hero. I can't think of her name right off the top of my head but I am about to go look it up, I am sure she must be a Democrat though because like you say the liberals are just so anti-American.

While I search for this Congresswoman's name however just let me tell you about a few of the things the person who this Congresswoman cites as her hero has advocated. She has called for the poisoning of a Supreme Court Justice, the assassination of a sitting US president, and bombing the offices of one of the largest newspapers in the country. The next time you go on television you need to go after this Congresswoman with everything you got, because if the American people knew that this woman considered such an advocate of terrorism to be their personal hero it would bring the entire Democratic Party down. I mean even Barack Obama never called Bill Ayers his hero, this woman has stepped way over the line to hold a supporter of terrorism in such high regard.

Alright I just found the name of the Congresswoman who believes this supporter of terrorism is a hero, and her name is...Michele Bachmann of Minnesota. But wait a minute, that's you. That couldn't be right could it? I must be mistaken, you told us it was the Democrats who associated themselves with terrorists and you are a Republican. But I have you quoted here as saying “In the terms of modern presidency, Ronald Reagan has been a tremendous hero of mine, as has Ann Coulter. I just adore Ann Coulter.” This is the same Ann Coulter who said “We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Steven's creme brulee.” as well as “My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times building” and in 1998 wrote that the only issue with Bill Clinton was rather to “impeach or assassinate”.

Now Michele it seems to me that someone who calls for assassinating a Supreme Court justice as well as a then sitting US President, and wishes for the bombing of one of one the leading media institutions in the nation just might be anti-American. I know that you want an investigation of members of Congress who hold anti-American ideas and I just think someone who holds an advocate of terrorism up as her hero might qualify as anti-American. I think you should look into which Democrat cited Ann Coulter as a hero, because I am sure I must have gotten my names mixed up. There is absolutely no way that a person like you would call for such an investigation if you hold an advocate of terrorism up as a hero yourself, so you better investigate and find out if there a different Michele Bachmann in Congress that is giving you a bad name. I hope this investigation you are advocating goes well for you.

Sincerely,

A Citizen

Thanks MN against Bush you exposed this far-right extremist

you can't hate half of America and at the same time claim to
put country first.

And Bachmann just happens to be one that is really vulnerable.

44. Bachmann Speaks, Her Opponent Reaps
Bachmann's opponent, El Tinklenberg, has raised over $106,000 since her appearance on Tweety last night...and that's just his ActBlue site alone! Thanks to Daily Kos and DU people...and more, I'm sure.

This race is close - El is within the margin of error (about a 4% difference, and all this publicity can only help). And the DCCC recently added him to the Red to Blue campaign.

Please consider giving any amount to El so we can get this nutcase out of the House.

42. "Jesus already saved the planet"
"(Pelosi) is committed to her global warming fanaticism to the point where she has said that she's just trying to save the planet," Bachmann told the right-wing news site OneNewsNow. "We all know that someone did that over 2,000 years ago, they saved the planet -- we didn't need Nancy Pelosi to do that."

~ Michele Bachman

repeat himself and interrupt her a lot, I was afraid she'd pull back. But oh no, she kept going with that insipid, inappropriate smile. Could I just ask - maybe someone from Minnesota - how in the world did Bachmann ever get elected in the first place?
