Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmannwas on Hardball yesterday and tried to discredit Obama once again by calling his associations as “Anti-American”.
Mathews kept her seat on fire by asking:
How many Congresspeople, members of Congress are in that anti-American crowd you describe?
Bachmann had a hard time once she was backed into a corner but managed to insinuate the elected officials she severs with might be anti-American.
I would say, what I would say is that the news media should do a penetrating expose and take a look — I wish they would. 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? I think the people would love to see an expose like that.
I believe a congresswoman going on national tv spewing a politics of fear and loathing and demonization and division and distraction is Anti-American. Bachmann thinks that anyone who disagrees with her personal political agenda is unpatriotic. But she is the one who has a lot to learn about what it means to love America.
I’m pro-‘merkin!
