Ok, who's with me that anyone calling for this should be immediately thrown out of office? Unfit to lead.
Jesus, why are you continuing to try and take what could be a good party down. So sad.

And i guess that eff'ed-out phrase should directly apply to her.
I'm right there with you, Bud... I didn't desert the Republican Party... the Republican Party drove me away with their wackiness... beginning with their blind acceptance of the Iraq fiasco.
I remember when it was the Democrats that cornered the market on loonies (Tsongas, Dukakis, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton...). Nowadays, people like Bachmann, Palin, Santorum and the likes make Al Sharpton sound like the fucking voice of reason... That's how fucking wacky the party has become.
In my opinion... it all began with the Rove driven Bush campaign that went to bed with the wackos at the Christian Coalition (Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, etc...) and attacked John McCain in the primaries running up to the 2000 election. Total chickenshit/bullshit that catered to the lunatic fringe that they (The Republican Party) would build their base from.
Hail, Hail!!!
i think even old joe would look at michelle and tell her she's fucked in the head
These fucking people need their own island.

I know. It's embarrassing. The republican party is doing a great job of trying to run itself off into irrelevance. Instead of running to the far, religious right. Imagine a republic party that actually stands for personal freedoms including who you decide to marry. Or a republican party that actually walks the walk when it comes to spending cuts?
If they ever get back to their true values, the republican party would dominate the democrats because the democrats aren't willing to make the tough choices either currently. It's so simple and yet things remain the same or get weirder....
I voted for Obama last time around. I don;t think I can do that again. I really wonder what Mitt would do as president if he didn't have to pander to the far right. I continue to debate with myself about the merits of voting for Mitt. Does it send the message that all is ok with the republican party? Or doe sit start to send the message that the repub need candidates that aren't the religious rights first, second, third, or even fourth choice? If Mitt doesn't win will the party say, "see, told ya so" and move farther right?
So annoying.
I said as much at the caucuses I attended this year. I was sick of, and unfortunately still am sick of, convenient conservatism...I am going to merge that into conservenientism...it makes me sad to think that the republican party focuses so much on being exclusionary.
I got told to shut up when I talked about how putting a change to the marriage stance in the platform was just plain dumb. #1 it was already in there, and #2 they wanted to amend it to say that we are against benefits being extended to domestic partners even if not married. It is so stupid. You cannot make it up. I simply said that it was ridiculous to be so exclusionary when people want to be fiscally responsible...they want to vote for a candidate that COULD be more fiscally sound but they won't because of all the stupid social issues that republicans cannot get over or around.
I don't know how much farther right they can go...I do like that the democrats follow with every move farther to the right the republicans make...They are taking away the middle ground and it is really smart. There are those that want to make people think they are moving further left, but if you look at it the parties are pretty similar...Eventually, and it could happen at the national convention this year, the GOP will either come back to reality and sanity, or they will split

a party that had gingrich, bachmann and santorum are not the foundation of a good party ...

...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
We ARE for open-mindedness, but referencing two closed-minded nimrods (Bachmann and Glenn Beck) doesn't help to prove anything.
Here is what I offer:
I had to acquire a Department of Defense Secret Security clearance in the 1980s (during the Cold War) to work on the B-1B Program. This involved very detailed background checks of my personal life.
I was later required to qualify for an elevated Limited Access clearance to work on specific aspects of the program. This required a closer look at me, my family, interviewed friends, neighbors, associates and former teachers. I took an oath, swearing to uphold resopnsibilities that came with this authority.
...
Now... if the DoD required that length of an inquiry on a single, lowly aerospace worker working on a blue program... how much of an investigation do you think went into vetting this advisor to the Secretary of State of the United States of America?
Are you thinking that our security people are inept? Because of what Glenn Beck and Michelle Bachmann think?
Hail, Hail!!!
Anyhow, Bachman is clearly out on a limb here, but are you guys saying that you don't have an issue with people have TS (or better) clearance while having actual connections to a questionable political body outside the US? Or is everyone truly just reacting to how far Bachman is stretching in order to discredit (who I assume to be) an arab in the US political system?
Actually... i went to the website an READ the written Transcript, rather than listening to them speak.
And their character has a LOT to do with theri credibility. Like, when you run across a crazy person that spews out crazy shit... do you all of a sudden take ther latest words as possibly not being crazy shit? I wish I could do that... but, after reading several articles on both Bachmann and Beck (including one of Glenn Beck's books)... I came to the conclusion that they both say crazy shit on a regular basis.
...
Now, I have a problem with people questioning the intelligence personel that do the security clearance checking. Having had first hand contact with them... myself... i would say they did a very thorough job on me. I am very confident that they did a and do... a very thorough job onsomeone that is going to be close to the Secretary Of State and the President of The United States.
...
By the way... I don't think it is 'Top Secret' clearance required... because she probably does not need to know technical aspects of black projects. Probably more along the lines of diplomatic clearances and background checks.
Hail, Hail!!!
They are on an intelligence committee whose job is to question intelligence personnel...why don't they just answer there questions?
After the Fort Hood tragedy, a report was issued that said the real problem in our government is that we are not teaching FBI agents or our military to recognize radical Islam. So that’s what we need to do. We need to teach about it.
Well, in response to that, 50 ‑‑ over 50 Muslim organizations wrote a letter requesting that the White House start a task force to stop that from happening. Five days after the White House got this letter, this October 19th letter ‑‑ and people can see it on my website, or maybe you have it on The Blaze ‑‑ five days after the White House got this letter from the 50 Muslim groups, they started the purge of the federal government. Let me tell you, the federal government doesn’t do anything in five days. But they started the purge of the FBI. So now the FBI, who are supposed to be trained in radical Islam, elements have been purged off their training materials so they are no longer being taught about what radical Islam is in order to be able to truly identify it ahead of time. This is serious. This is also happening throughout our United States military, Department of Justice, and Homeland Security. And the word “purge” isn’t my word. That’s the word used by the 50 Muslim organizations. They demanded that the president purge the training materials and the trainers. And so already people have been fired who formerly were teaching what radical Islam is. They’ve been fired or they’ve been reassigned. And they ask that the library be purged. Americans don’t purge libraries, but they demanded that the FBI’s library be purged. All of this was happening and so we wrote a letter to the inspectors general asking the question: Don’t you think you should look into the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood and what it is they’re seeking to do.
or this
"I have 59 footnotes with one example after another of the penetration of the Muslim Brotherhood into the federal government. One of the most recent is so outrageous, it’s hard to believe. Two weeks ago the State Department broke its own law, like I said, and let a foreign terrorist come into the United States, into the White House, meet with the National Security Council ‑‑"
And so then now what’s happened is the attack machine has been turned on myself and the other members of congress who have been asking the questions, that somehow we’re the Muslim haters, we’re the witch‑hunters, we’re the new Joe McCarthyites because we’re asking these questions. All the while two weeks ago the Obama administration breaks federal law to bring someone that we list on the State Department as a terrorist organization, a member of that terrorist organization, we bring him into the White House? You don’t get any higher when it comes to intelligence secrets, you don’t get any higher than the National Security Council. He sits down with the National Security Council in our White House and has the guts to demand that we release one of the worst, most violent terrorists that we have behind bars. He wants us to let him out of prison, to let him go free, the guy who was the mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, the blind sheikh.
: And you don’t hear a peep about this.
or this
Anthony Weiner’s wife will is ‑‑ has connections to the Muslim Brotherhood. Now, this is important because she works for Hillary Clinton.
CONGRESSWOMAN BACHMANN: She is the chief aid for the ‑‑ to the Secretary of State, and we quoted from a document, and this has been well reported all across Arab media, that her father ‑‑ her late father who’s now deceased was a part of the Muslim Brotherhood. Her brother was a part of the Muslim Brotherhood, and her mother was a part of what’s called the Muslim Sisterhood. It would be, we have requirements to get a high level security clearance. One thing that the government looks at are your associations, and in particular your family associations. And this applies to everyone. It would be the same that is true with me. If my family members were associated with Hamas, a terrorist organization, that alone could be sufficient to disqualify me from getting a security clearance. So all we did is ask, did the federal government look into her family associations before she got a high level security clearance.
. And this isn’t intent to be partisan or out to get the president. I mean, quite honestly on the intelligence committee I’m happy to report we are the most bipartisan committee I’ve ever been a part of, and with all of these unprecedented leaks that have been coming out from our federal government, all of which, by the way, undermine Israel, and Israel’s ability to defend herself against a nuclear Iran, we are with one voice, Democrat and Republican, outraged by these leaks that are coming out of the administration. Never before in the history of the country have we seen this level of leaks coming out, but at the same time there’s also a parallel track of influence from the Muslim Brotherhood in the highest levels of the federal government, and we think that we need to get answers to these questions. And that’s the purpose of our letters. We’re asking that the inspectors general answer these questions, and Keith Ellison is trying to shut this, these questions down from getting addressed.

bachmann and the dull normal people that swallow her hate need to shut the fuck up
You choice of words show who the angry hater is :shock:
.....She said Radical Muslims......This head line is a lie
If you'd read beyond the headline you'd know that the headline isn't a lie.
The first paragraph of the article explains what the headline is referring to:
'Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) laughed off claims by Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) that he has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and said she makes such baseless accusations because, deep down, she thinks Muslims are "evil."
And further on...
'Asked why he thought Bachmann makes such allegations about Muslims like him and Abedin, Ellison said he thinks Bachmann genuinely believes that people who are different from her are bad people.
"I think she has a very narrowly prescribed definition of who belongs and who doesn't. And there's a whole block of people she don't like," he said. "I think she thinks that we're evil because we don't understand God the way she does."
...More than angry, Ellison said he just feels bad for Bachmann because she seems so afraid of things that are different from her.
"Her world must be a scary place," he said. "It must be very frightening to see the world through her eyes."

Sounds like you might have some kind of clearance, so you probably already know this, but TS doesn't imply inside knowledge of black ops or anything that intense. My wife has her TS just because she did some I.T. work at the Dept of Homeland Security. Kinda neither her nor there with regards to this thread, but I'm just sayin'.
brilliant. i love jon stewart. he makes me laugh.

Her brother was a part of the Muslim Brotherhood, and her mother was a part of what’s called the Muslim Sisterhood. This is okay?
Just because "he thinks” does not make it fact...
She has nothing against Muslims only Radical Muslims...such as Muslim Brotherhood...
I wonder why people find it unbelievable that the United States government cannot be infiltrated by this group when they say that is there goal.....what is wrong with checking it out? Are they afraid that that the truth will be found out?
you do know what tautology is dont you??
