Why Michelle Bachmann should not get any support from the TEA PARTY

Why I will never vote for Michelle Bachmann

Michelle Bachmann [R - MN] is a current member of the Outlaw Congress. She's become the darling
of the right - in particular, the Tea Party folks.
Quite frankly, she scares me to death as a loose cannon who speaks of nothing but more Band Aids. I
would love to debate her on the issues any day of the week - especially on taxation and our monetary
system. On her web site, she says she understands, having been a tax attorney, how complicated the tax
code is, blah, blah, blah.
Bachmann, a former Democrat who worked to get Jimmy Carter elected, was a hired gun for the IRS as
a DOJ attorney prosecuting Americans. She trumpets we need "simplification of the tax code". More
meaningless drivel. No where does she take on abolishing the privately owned "Federal" Reserve and
it's feeding artery, the IRS. It's apparent she knows next to nothing about our monetary system and the
catastrophic mess building to a crescendo.
She was elected to the Outlaw Congress and sworn in January 2007. In June 2007, Congressman Ron
Paul, introduced a bill to kill the beast: Abolish the Federal Reserve. Bachmann did not support it and
for that alone, she isn't qualified to be president because she has no understanding of the key
mechanism destroying this country. Without the "FED" the Outlaw Congress would not be able to
borrow the trillions it whizzes away in unconstitutional spending.
Despite millions of Americans hounding the outlaws in the Congress to abolish the "FED", there were
no cosponsors to Ron Paul's critical bill. We are paying the price today and for many years to come. No
candidate should go to the White House unless he has a complete understanding of our monetary
system and why the central bank must be abolished so he can hammer on his party to get the job done.
So far, none of them have the guts to take on the international money cartels. A fatal mistake for which
we the people are paying dearly.
Bachmann is pro life and does not support the agenda of sexual deviants (homosexuals and lesbians).
For that she has gained the support of conservatives. As my regular readers of my columns know, I am
and always have been for the sanctity of life and against killing unborn babies. I've also been very
active in stopping the promotion of the filth of sodomy practiced by homosexuals and the gross sexual
preferences of lesbians. I will never vote for a candidate for any office that supports killing unborn
babies or supports sexual deviants.
However, those two things do not make her qualified to be president.
Michelle Bachmann is a war monger who apparently has zero understanding of the under pinnings of
the global elite and the endless "wars of liberation" or the nebulous "war on terror". Bachmann has no
concern the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan are illegal and immoral. For her, war is the way. Only the
U.S. Congress has the power to declare war; something she chooses to ignore.
June 29, 2011, National Public Radio (NPR)
“ … it appears for President Obama that he is acting more on political strategy than military strategy.
That's very concerning, because it also seems that this is more the Obama-Biden plan for early
withdrawal, as opposed to the Petraeus plan.”
“Gen. Petraeus, who's in charge of winning the war effort in Afghanistan, understands that we need to
win the war on terror. We must never forget that 9/11 was hatched in the caves and the mountains of
Afghanistan. The Taliban has a presence there. Al-Qaida has a presence there. We must defeat them in
their backyard. And it's important that Gen. Petraeus and Gen. Allen have the resources that they need
to be successful in southern Afghanistan and then also in eastern Afghanistan … ”
“ … I think that the president needs to follow what the advice is to be successful. Let me tell you this:
As president of the United States, I would — knowing that we have a war hero like Gen. Petraeus — I
would call Gen. Petraeus into my office. We would have a very short conversation. It would be
something like this: It would be, "General, how quickly can we conclude the war in Afghanistan?" No.
2, "What do you need?" And I would, I would trust his judgment. He wrote the book on
counterinsurgency. He turned around the war effort in Iraq. We need to trust him on Afghanistan.
Simply because he's demonstrated results. With the resources he's had, he's demonstrated positive
results, particularly in southern Afghanistan. But let's remember, if we pull out now, we could cause all
of the advances we've made to collapse. And we have to remember, the greatest treasure we've
expended in Afghanistan has been the blood of our soldiers. Not to mention the resources of the
American people to be able to provide the assets required.”
"We must never forget that 9/11 was hatched in the caves and the mountains of Afghanistan." She
actually believes such nonsense.
We invaded a non threatening country to chase the al-Qaeda bogey man. Bachmann couldn't find her
mascara without a written set of instructions, but you would put her in charge as commander in chief to
continue this insanity of endless wars?
"No fewer than nine times over the past decade, Western powers have deployed noble rhetoric, soldiers
and taxpayer dollars in the service of nation-building. And no fewer than nine times, they have, to one
degree or another, failed to build stable, self-sustaining nations. The litany consists of Somalia, Haiti,
Bosnia, Kosovo, Sierra Leone, East Timor, Liberia, Afghanistan and Iraq. The best one could say is that
they are works in progress. The worst: Too many of them still can't function on their own and continue
to pose threats to their own citizens as well as U.S. national interests." Morton Abramowitz and
Heather Hurlburt correctly pointed out in a July 12, 2004
It has only gotten worse. Not to mention no where in the U.S. Constitution does it authorize our
military to be used for "nation building." No where in the U.S. Constitution does it authorize raping we
the people to pay for invasions of non threatening countries to build schools, hospitals and get bogged
down in tribal disputes. Apparently, Bachmann didn't get the message from James Madison.
Voted NO on investigating Bush impeachment for lying about Iraq. (Jun 2008). For the party faithful
who scoff at such an idea, open your mind and read, The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder, by
Vincent Bugliosi. For those unfamiliar with that name, Bugliosi successfully prosecuted Charles
Manson for the Tate/LaBianca murders. It is painful to discover you've been lied to - especially for the
families of our dead military. And, please save the hate mail that I don't support our military. My
husband, John, is a retired U.S. Army Colonel who spent 27 years in uniform.
Voted YES on $192B additional anti-recession stimulus spending. (Jul 2009). More borrowed money
down the crapper.
Voted YES on promoting free trade with Peru (Nov 2007) to kill more American jobs.
Has she ever introduced a bill to get us out of job killing, unconstitutional treaties like NAFTA,
CAFTA, GATT & out of the sovereignty killing WTO? No.
Bachmann voted yes for the Patriot Act. She voted to continue shredding the Bill of Rights, our
freedom and liberty.
Endorsed as small-government, low-tax "Mama Grizzly". (Nov 2010) - Meaningless drivel for public
consumption. Make me gag.
Put hard earned money back in taxpayers’ pockets. (Nov 2006) - Campaign rhetoric we've all heard for
decades.
Has she ever introduced a bill to abolish the unconstitutional Federal Department of Education? No
Has she ever introduced a bill to abolish the unconstitutional EPA? No.
Has she ever introduced a bill to stop all unconstitutional foreign aid to any country? No.
Has she ever introduced a bill to stop the unconstitutional rape of we the people by giving money to the
IMF or get us out of evil, international financial agreements like Bretton Woods? No. I doubt she even
knows what Basel II is and why it has been deadly for we the people.
In September 2007, Congressman Ron Paul introduced H.R. 3664: Tax Free Tips Act of 2007. That bill
would have exempted tips for service workers, waiters and waitresses federal tax dragoons. Many
seniors work in the service industry as well as students trying to get through school. I did what I could
to spread the word, urging people to pound on Congress to get it passed.
Did Bullhorn Bachmann support such an important bill that would help those who really need to keep
their all their tips? No.
In May 2011, Ron Paul again has introduced a bill to do the same thing: H.R. 1139: Tax Free Tips Act
of 2011.
Has Bachmann stepped up to the plate as a cosponsor? No.
That's just the short list.
So, explain to me how she's for the working guy or gal?
Can you imagine - in this climate of economic destruction not one single member of the U.S. Congress
or candidate is supporting a bill to help those who make minimum wage and depend on their tips? The
big SEIU (Service Workers International Union) also did not supportthe first bill in 2007, a bill that
would have greatly benefited their workers. Instead, they pushed to elect a stinking Marxist to the
White House.
Bachmann barks about Obama/Soetoro as her bread and butter staple. But she also gets bread and
butter from farm subsidies:
"Liberal site Truthdig links to an Environmental Working Group analysis of federal agricultural
subsidies and found that the Bachmann family farm, managed by her father-in-law until his recent
death, received $251,000 in farm payments between 1995 and 2006. Bachmann’s financial disclosure
forms indicate her stake in the Wisconsin farm is worth up to $250,000. Her income from the farm has
grown from $2,000 a year a few years back to as much as $50,000 for 2008. Truthdig calls her a
"Welfare Queen": "Bachmann's family farm received $251,973 in federal subsidies between 1995 and
2006."
Michele Bachmann - A Banker In Populist’s Clothing
"Received an email this morning from a Minnesotan, expressing his embarrassment over Michele
Bachmann’s response to the State of the Union Address. I went to YouTube to see what she had to say
and fully understand his embarrassment. The Congresswoman is preaching the gospel of getting rid of
those regulations that are left (apparently she is simply ignoring the recent financial meltdown and the
lack of regulation that caused it) and trusting in lassiez faire, Wall Street and the big corporations. If
we do that, she says, everything will be just fine. Or at least a whole lot better.
"Just for kicks, I went to OpenSecrets.org to find out who Ms. Bachmann’s biggest contributors are. At
the very top, is what appears to be a “grass roots” organization called the “Club for Growth.” Never
heard of them? Neither had I.
"Here's a little about the “Club,” which is nothing more than a front for Wall Street.
“Chaired by prominent Wall Street investors like Thomas Rhodes and Richard Gilder, as well as the
wealthy and reclusive Howie Rich, the Club collects funds from employees of J.P. Morgan Chase and
Goldman Sachs, while being buoyed by large donations like a $1.4 million contribution from investor
Stephen Jacksons of Stephens Groups Inc. The hand-picked candidates of the Club claim to lead the tea
party movement, even though polls show that 70% of self identified tea partiers want the government
to help create jobs, and nearly half want government to rein in executive bonuses.” -ThinkProgress.org
"Since 1989, the Club for Growth has been Congresswoman Bachman’s biggest contributor, donating
$92,630 to her campaigns. TCF Financial, is her third largest contributor, at $40,900. Somewhat farther
down the ladder is the American Bankers Association, which kicked in another $24,000.
"Imagine that."
Sleeping with the enemy.
And, last but not least: Like the rest of the gutless cowards, Michelle Bachmann sat mute on January 9,
2009, and allowed the electoral college vote to be accepted making the thug from Chicago our putative
president.
Bachmann didn't have the guts to stand up for the U.S. Constitution and in fact, has shown her
ignorance by stating Obama/Soetoro is constitutionally qualified to be president since he released his
"real" long form birth certificate that is an obvious forgery on April 27, 2011. Like so many others in
the Outlaw Congress, she has no understanding of 'natural born citizen' and has taken the girlie way out
by tucking tail. But, Obama/Soetoro is good for the campaign trail.
Lloyd Green recently penned an op-ed piece for FoxNews.com: Michele Bachmann's Reverence for the
Constitution Deserves Praise, Not Scorn. He wrote: "Congresswoman Michele Bachmann’s love of the
U.S. Constitution and her devotion to constitutional conservatism are being met with derision by the
usual suspects. In the July 5, 2011 issue of The New Republic, Bachmann’s commitment to the
Constitution is attacked because it is grounded in the view that constitutional government is necessarily
limited government. Bachmann deserves praise, not scorn."
Here's a news flash for Green: I am not one of the "usual suspects". As an independent voter
since 1996, I don't give a tinker's dam about the two parties except how they both have destroyed
this country.
I am opposed to Bachmann as a candidate because she doesn't understand the Constitution or chooses
to ignore it when it suits her purposes. As a matter of fact, the mere idea of her sitting in the Oval
Office scares me as much as Palin.
I don't know Michelle Bachmann, but I know her kind. She is an opportunist of average intelligence,
but lots of "people appeal". I'm sure that will outrage her supporters, but either they don't understand
how government systems and programs work or they simply choose to ignore the fact that Michelle
Bachmann has done little towards backing up her big mouth.
Bachmann Says Obama's Certificate 'Settles' Birther Issue
Fact Check: Bachmann bomblets raising eyebrows
Liberals Lie About Michele Bachmann, While Neo-Cons Praise Her
Afghanistan - the insane invasion supported by Bachmann
Afghanistan: An American Rape
Americans are involved in drug trade in Afghanistan
Our Sharia-Compliant Afghan War
Always about money, greed and power
And Now… J.P. Morgan’s Hunt for Afghan Gold
This makes me sick to my soul - FOR WHAT?
Bachmann and the other war mongers in the Outlaw Congress go about their business, but our military
are dead and their families will suffer for the rest of their lives.
FOR WHAT?
Afghan officer fires on U.S. troops, kills 9'
Afghanistan: US servicemen killed in first drone 'friendly fire' incident
US troops killed in Afghanistan and Africa (Africa? - how many more countries will we bomb and kill
innocent civilians before it stops?)
Plans to "rebuild" Afghanistan as a nation are a waste of money:
As Muslims burn the American flag
"Last week in the northern province of Faryab, two more American soldiers were murdered by one of
the police officers they are in Afghanistan to train. As my friend Diana West calculates, that brings to
17 the number of U.S. troops killed in just the last four months by the Afghan security forces they are
mentoring. The total climbs to 22 when the killings of other Western troops are factored in."
Iraq, Afghanistan Wars Spawn New Disease
Thank you, Michelle. Your votes have made all of the above possible.
