Bachmann: Tea Party 'Has Been Only a Force for Good'
Former Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann on Sunday defended the tea party movement, saying that it had "been only a force for good."
"The [Republican] Party has changed so much for the better," Bachmann told CBS host Bob Schieffer. "The tea party has infused the energy and excitement. And really, it's bringing the Republican Party back to its basic values, which is limited government, cutting spending, being smart, and making the government more efficient."
"Has the tea party made compromise a dirty word?" Schieffer wondered. "And is that why Congress can't seem to get anything done?"
"Not at all!" Bachmann replied. "The tea party has been only a force for good in Washington, D.C., because otherwise we continue to go farther and farther to the left, which is redistribution of wealth. That's why [President Barack Obama] will be a one-termer, because all he has been about is redistribution of wealth and the rise of socialist principles, and the Tea Party rejects that."

LOL .Michelle Bachman ? Who is she ? Maybe her and Palin can get together and have a cup of tea , discuss the good old days .
"The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all."
..Tea Party may have been a force for good in that it mainstreamed political protests before the arrival of Occupy Wall Street.
So gratitude is offered, Tea Party.
If you hadn't set the parameters by raising hell in behalf of the 1%, it's doubtful OWS would have been so successful raising hell in behalf of the 99%.
When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in excess body fat & carrying a misspelled sign.
figure out they were done in by a male chauvinist plot?
Bachmann, Angle, ODonnell, Palin....all dismissed and dumped aside because they were just pretty faces to be exploited then cast aside by ugly old men when they demanded equality. Much like a Gingrich wife.
"That's fu*#ing retarded."
