MICHELLE BACHMANN

Ann Myers, a sophomore in high school from New Jersey challenged Michelle Bachmann to a debate on the Constitution. She issued the challenge because of statements Bachmann made recently.
Some clown in the media tried to defend Bachmann by saying she was expressing an “originalist” view of the Constitution and besides Miss Myers was a dupe of the liberal left and left leaning educational institution.
Now a student from Louisiana has challenged her about her statements on evolution and the claim that Nobel Laureates support her. The student Zack Kopplin challenged her to back up those statements.
Michelle Bachmann wants to be President. High School kids know she is goofy. Why do her supporters keep their heads in the sand?

RICK PERRY

Most of the public thought Donald Trump was a joke when he expressed interest in running for President. Well Rick Perry the governor of Texas makes Trump look like a front runner. Perry is the guy who said maybe Texas should secede from the United States. If the Republicans think Perry is the answer, then they are in deep trouble. I know the field for the Republicans is bad right now. I mean for God’s sake Gingrich, Bachman, Pawlenty, Cain and my personal favorite Palin. Oh I forgot the Governor of New Jersey Christie. He just took a state helicopter to his son’s baseball game I guess cutting expenses doesn’t apply to things like that. If Republicans embrace Perry, I am sorry to say there isn’t much hope for this country in the future. I mean there has to be better people out there. The more I think about it the way Republicans have been attacking education. I guess they think if they keep people from learning anything their campaign of division and scare tactics will work.

ERIC CANTOR

Eric Cantor (R-Va.) thinks providing help to the many victims of the many tornados and floods mostly in the Midwest and the South is something we should do only if they take money from other programs to pay for the help. Sorry Mr. Cantor, you are a jerk! This country helps the people in need if you don’t understand that you should not be in politics, in fact I am not sure what a guy like you should do. Maybe a con man I know they don’t care about their victims. You would fit right in there. Hopefully a disaster doesn’t strike your area. I am sure you would change your tune. If not I think your constituents would run you out of town.

TARRYL CLARK

I had a 90 minute meeting with Tarryl Clark and several other people from where I work. Tarryl Clark is a former state legislator, and ran an unsuccessful campaign against Michelle Bachman last year. This meeting really wasn’t about politics; it was more about what we can do about creating jobs. Ms. Clark is working for the blue green alliance. This is collaboration between several unions and a lot of conservation organizations. This was basically a grassroots informational meeting asking the local people what they think could be done. Ms. Clark is a very nice person who wants to solve problems, create jobs, and generally just help people. I hope she can make a difference.

WING NUTS

In Minnesota the legislators in the state capitol invited a so called pastor by the name of Bradlee Dean to give the opening prayer. Dean thought he should question President Obama’s believe in Jesus. Mr. Dean is a well-known gay basher. This really backfired on the Republicans. The thing I found strange was that the people who invited him claim now that they didn’t know anything about his so-called preaching. Of course Michelle Bachman is one of his big supporters in the state. There are two ways to look at this either the legislators are complete idiots, I think I hold to this belief, or they don’t know who Michelle Bachman is. It was kind of coincidental that this was the same day the assembly was going to bring up a gay marriage bill.

LANCE ARMSTRONG

We have a new allegation about Lance Armstrong. Tyler Hamilton is going on 60 minutes on CBS to state that Armstrong used performance enhancing drugs. He says he saw him shoot up. I don’t know and really don’t care if this is true. My problem is that Hamilton is writing a book and now he comes forward with something he said he saw in the 1990’s. Dan Patrick is a sports announcer and talk show host. His logic is that it just makes sense that he is guilty because all those other guys got caught. So the logic goes Armstrong must be guilty too. When he is presented with the fact that Armstrong has had at least 500 hundred drug tests and has passed them all, this is ignored with the simple argument that Sammy Sosa never failed a test. No logic to that. Sosa never took many tests. Innocent until proven guilty is a concept this country was supposed to be built on. Sports personalities don’t seem to have that presumption.

CESAR CHAVEZ

Cesar Chavez a labor leader and civil rights leader in the sixties is being honored by the navy by naming a support ship after him. Controversy followed, who would have guessed. Duncan Hunter Jr. a conservative congressman from California doesn’t like this; he states this is a political statement. It would be nice if we could take him at his word, but the conservatives have been trying to discredit and even take Mr. Chavez out of text books for years. If you have been following the news lately you know that the Republicans have been waging an all-out war against labor as a favor to big business.Why would they want to honor a labor leader. This is just another petty attempt to do away with something they don’t like.
