Michele Bachmann is being raked over the coals and skewered by democrats and their willing media accomplices. For what? Why, for telling the truth about democrats, of course:
REP. BACHMANN: It’s important because we look at the collection of friends that Barack Obama has had over his life, and usually we associate with people who have similar ideas to us. And it seems that it calls into question what Barack Obama’s true beliefs and values and thoughts are — his attitudes, values and beliefs with Jeremiah Wright on his view of the United States —
MR. MATTHEWS: Okay —
REP. BACHMANN: — which is negative; Bill Ayers, his negative view of the United States. We’ve seen one friend after another. It calls into question his judgment, but also what is it that Barack Obama really believes? And we know that he’s the most liberal senator in the United States Senate, and that’s just after one year after being there. He’s the most liberal. Joe Biden is the third most liberal. You’ve got Harry Reid who’s liberal, Nancy Pelosi who’s liberal.
MR. MATTHEWS: Right. What’s the connection?
REP. BACHMANN: You have a troika of the most leftist administration in the history of our country.
MR. MATTHEWS: If you have liberal views, does that mean you have anti-American views? What’s the connection? I don’t get the connection. What’s the connection between liberal and leftist and anti-American?
REP. BACHMANN: Anti-American is the point, because —
MR. MATTHEWS: I mean, if you’re liberal, are you anti-American?
REP. BACHMANN: Well, the liberals that are Jeremiah Wright and that are Bill Ayers, they’re over-the-top anti-American. And that’s the question that Americans have. Remember, it was Michelle Obama who said she’s only recently proud of her country. And so these are very anti-American views.
And so Bachmann gets called on the carpet for stating the obvious. To be fair, it was Chris Matthews who brought the term, "anti-American" into the interview, but so what?
- When the Senate Majority Leader, a Democrat, gets up to the podium and proclaims, "The Iraq war is lost!" in an effort to counteract any positive consequences of an upcoming change in strategy, is that pro-American?
- When "Jihad Jack" Murtha scores a propaganda victory for Jihadists who are killing our soldiers by unjustly and without evidence labelling Marines "cold blooded murderers," is that likewise pro-American?
- When an entire party, in the name of politics, tries to undermine the efforts of our troops in harms’ way during wartime, is that pro-American?
- When Obama’s long-time self-confessed mentor and pastor of over 20 years stands in the pulpit and screams, "G*D DAMN AMERICA!" is that being pro-American?
- When another long-time Obama Associate, William Ayers, bombs the pentagon and other targets, and later regrets only that he didn’t cause more murder and mayhem, is that also pro-American?
Congresswoman Bachmann, you owe no one an apology. What we need is an apology from a biased mainstream media who carries no compunction against serving up a three-day long intensive anal exam against a common citizen known as "Joe the Plumber," yet for the past two years has refused to do even a cursory examination of the life of a man who wishes to be President of the United States.
What we need is an apology from a biased media, who supposedly thrives on the First Amendment, who turn the other way when their candidate, rather than answer critics, sends goons out under the guise of "truth squads" to silence them.
What we need is an apology from a Party whose financial malfiesance in the name of "fairness" got us into a behemoth financial disaster the likes of which made Enron look like a parking ticket.
My fear is that fellow Republicans, if not Michele herself, will go weak-kneed and try to distance themselves from the truth, when the truth itself is needed, now more than ever. Truth is a great disinfectant, and you can tell that the truth is being told when democrats scream, complain, and scurry for cover like so many cockroaches running after the kitchen light is switched on.
It’s about freaking time that anti-American democrats were called out for just what they are, Anti-American.
And you’ll get no apology from me for saying that.
