Our long national nightmare is over!

This is a great step forward for the people of Minnesota and the country as a whole.

    If her true motive is that she has been in office for eight years, and if that is good for the POTUS, then that's good for her, then good for her.

    Term Limits.

    This should by the main focus. By all of us.

    Unite on term limits. Get it passed. Then bicker about the other problems.

    Agreed on the end of our national nightmare...

    Agreed on the need for term limits...

    ...but wouldn't any district that elected her previously be ripe to elect the next national nightmare nutjob too?

    no, the 6th is set up for a conservative representative (abnormally as hell, pretty much a posterchild for gerrymandering) but there aren't many like her in MN.

    I wish more politicians would talk before thinking...she is a comedic gold mine.

    my personal favorite

    I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out: Are they pro-America or anti-America?

    but a close second would have to be when she compared our economic policies to Mussolini. don't hear about him enough, it was nice to see something other than the stalin/nazi comparisons. :lol:

    She is the epitome of what voting for the lesser of two evils gets you. I can't believe there are more than a handful of people that are excited she, specifically, represents them.

    What does the greater of two evils look like if she can be considered the lesser? Scary thought there.

    any socialist democrat that wants to take your guns, give money to illegal immigrants who may or may not be affiliated with Al Qaeda, and make sure that creationism isn't taught in schools? Who would want that monster in office?
    as an aside, the guy who ran against her was a pretty solid candidate, hope he runs again. He wasn't perfect by my standards, but he would probably go some good.

  • She also slammed the “despicable treatment” by the U.S. of “our great friend and ally Israel.”

    Bachmann said she would continue to fight to protect “innocent human life,” “traditional marriage,” “family values,” “religious liberty,” and “academic excellence.”

    And she would also oppose the Democrats, saying “our founders would hardly even recognize” the U.S. of today.

    “Feel confident that over the next 18 months I will continue to work 100-hour weeks and continue to do everything I can to advance our conservative principles that have served as the bedrock for who we are as a nation.”


    2014 won't come fast enough. but then she'll probably write some shitty book like Palin did and be on talk shows and in the news all over the place.

    Michele Bachmann: ‘God Wants Me To Earn 7 Figures For A Lobbying Firm’

    WASHINGTON—Saying that it’s the Lord’s will, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann announced on her website Wednesday that she has decided not to seek reelection in 2014 because God wants her to earn millions of dollars working for a high-powered lobbying firm.

    According to Bachmann, God spoke to her directly after many days of intense prayer and ultimately told the exiting Congresswoman that there is no reason she should only make $174,000 per year when she could easily earn up to eight times that amount in the private sector.

    “This was a difficult decision for me, but God said this is a highly lucrative opportunity and I need to capitalize on my fame now before my high media profile diminishes,” said Bachmann, adding that the Supreme Being commanded her to “strike while the iron’s hot” and work for a conservative lobbying group like FreedomWorks or the John Birch Society or whichever one offers her the most money. “I would love to stay on and represent Minnesota’s 6th congressional district, but who am I to ignore God’s plan, which He said could earn me over $10 million next year and over $20 million the following year if I invest wisely, which God wants me to do as well.”

    “God also wants me to make a lot of money on the speaking circuit,” Bachmann added.

    During the announcement, Bachmann said that in addition to working for a lobbying firm, the Lord and Savior urged her to sign a book deal with a multi-million-dollar advance, become a regular contributor to Fox News, and hire a television agent in case there is money to be made either by producing television shows or being the star of a reality program that centers around her.

    Bachmann confirmed that in her numerous conversations with the Lord, she argued that she was most useful fighting for the people of Minnesota, but that God made it clear he wants the congresswoman to be very, very wealthy and to relentlessly leverage her brand for monetary profit. According to Bachmann, at one point God said to her, “If you don’t do this now you are shooting yourself in the foot. Because if you lose the upcoming election and are forced out of public service, you will be seen as a liability, and no one is going to pay good money for a liability.”

    Bachmann said that as much as it hurts her to leave Congress, it would hurt her more to disappoint God.

    “When it comes down to it, the Lord said in a vision, ‘Madam Congresswoman, I want you to be anti-gay, anti-immigration, and anti-gun control, but I want you to promote those values from a position where you can command seven- or eight-figure sums, preferably while living in a locale with sufficient tax breaks,’” Bachmann said toward the end of her announcement. “Jesus was with Him, too, and He wholeheartedly agreed. Then Jesus said I would be doing a great disservice to myself and the people I love if I don’t buy a new Mercedes. The silver one with the convertible top I’ve had my eye on for some time.”

    no No NO. No name-calling. Sexist name-calling is the worst. Don't ever do it here. The B word is reserved for female dogs only, not women. It's hate language and NEVER ok.
