(Community Matters) Feels like the beginning of the end for Ms. Bachmann – which would be a good thing for America since she’s a lying, hateful woman
from Mike Allen’s Playbook: BACHMANN – TIME’s Michael Crowley: “ABC’s Brian Ross dashed after Bachmann, repeatedly asking whether she had ever missed a House vote due to a migraine. She ignored him. Ross pursued her into a parking area behind the stage. Her aides grew alarmed. When Ross made a beeline for the white SUV waiting to carry Bachmann away, two Bachmann men pounced on him, grabbing and pushing him multiple times with what looked to me like unusual force. In fact, I have never seen a reporter treated so roughly at a campaign event, especially not a presidential one Afterward, I asked Ross, a hard-nosed pro who nevertheless seemed slightly shaken, whether he had ever been treated so roughly. A few times, he told me. Mostly by Mafia people. http://ti.me/n6gbiE
@benpolitico: A fight with a broadcast network would be just terrible for Bachmann’s GOP primary campaign.
Bachmann has equated the LGBT community with Satan, her family earns a portion of their money providing “reparative therapy” to make gays and lesbians straight (a practice shown to do more harm than good and disavowed by professional psychiatric organizations), and while she rails against government spending and programs her family accepts farm subsidies and government healthcare payments.
