Michele Bachmann is again the subject of Ed Schultz's Psycho Talk for her appearance in Denver CO. From The Colorado Independent-- Bachmann: ‘Slit our wrists, be blood brothers’ to beat health care reform:

In a fiery speech that had her conservative Colorado audience cheering, U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann railed against the dangers of health care reform and other Democratic initiatives, warning the proposals “have the strength to destroy this country forever.”

“This cannot pass,” the Minnesota Republican told a crowd at a Denver gathering sponsored by the Independence Institute. “What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing. This will not pass. We will do whatever it takes to make sure this doesn’t pass.”

“Something is way crazy out there,” Bachmann said in her remarks, billed as a “personal legislative briefing” by the Golden-based Independence Institute, which bills itself as a “free market think tank.”

“This is slavery,” Bachmann said after claiming many Americans pay half their income to taxes. “It’s nothing more than slavery.”

In a speech filled with urgent and violent rhetoric, Bachmann — who proudly acknowledges she is the country’s “second-most hated Republican woman,” behind only former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin – drew a clear line on health care reform.

The repubs are such tea-douche-bags they don't need guys like Ed and Kieth speaking in funny voices. Their 'crazy talk' speaks for itself.

Let alone asking douche-Bagmann to in effect come on the show to slit her wrists, that just gives losers like Beck and Oreilly ammo for a come back. I can see Billo now with a talking point about MSNBC/GE condoning the murder of a congressman.

Simply listening to the right wingers these days is entertaining and scary in its own right. No need to punch it up IMO, they are doing a fine job all on their own.

the silly voices aren't cool.
I love KO's show, but he sounds silly when he does the voice thingy.
Simply repeating, or showing vid clips of what they say would suffice, maybe a raised eyebrow and then ridiculing the gooper in question for a bit.
And I'm really startin to enjoy Ed's show...
He's a no shit-takin mofo.

"We are happy to note that the Mutant Psycho Hose Beast (MPHB) is right about public healthcare or it's bastard orphan child, the public insurance option, having the power to destroy the country forever, if you take the MPHB's definition of the country as being legitimate: the personal feifdom of Korporate Amerika, wherein self-appointed elites rule over a populace of cowering, down-beaten subjects whose only role in society is to live and die as serfs in service to those same elites. From that standpoint, any act of government that actually looks after the needs of the people is, indeed, a mortal threat to that imaginary country. Unfortunately for the MPHB, Americans are waking up to what these self-appointed elites are doing to this country, and aren't liking what they see as they rub the sleep out of their eyes. The massive sell-out that is shaping up in the form of insurance "reform" is just one of the things they are seeing. Sorry, MPHB, but this is only the beginning".

Then when the Mainstream Propaganda Network, repeated the name MPHB, shocked (shocked, I tell ya) and outraged over the insulting name for this nutsoid psycho, we could all have a good laugh at hearing them speaking the name.

We could hope she doesn't know the difference and maybe she will slit her own throat.
They never use their heads any way.

That, is the GOP health care proposal. I think anyone that approves of her, needs to become a vocal and open follower. That way, the folks that come around in the cookie truck will find them much easier. Some will be drained with the cat enjoying a morsel, or the dog walking around the house with a joint in it's mouth. This is the kind of option the GOP are saying their opponents want, but it is only the GOP that you find saying it. Must be their kind of party.

docb's picture

slitting her own wrists--lets just hope her knife is sharp and she cuts deep enough to silence herself!

She is in the same mold as palin but not as cute but just as stupid!

Pretty pitiful when you have to keep sharp objects away from a person serving in the house of representiatives. Anyone who talks about slitting their wrists belongs on suicide watch.


Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

General Jack D. Ripper's picture

Bachmann is just batshit crazy. She normally has been kind of "mild-mannered," meaning I've never really heard her raise her voice....although she's still frgn' nuts.....but when I heard that "something is way crazy out there," Jesus H. Christ. WTF?

Is she trying to be like Beck, showing signs of craziness in order to attract viewers? After all Beck also has started mentioning "slavery" very recently.

Someone with money needs to take Bachmann's "way crazy" scream and broadcast it across the nation.

General Jack D. Ripper's picture

I think I've been punk'd....originally thought that was Bachmann's voice screaming "way crazy out there....", but I guess it was Ed's!

Oh, well....doesnt' detract from the fact that Bachmann is still insane.

Someone would probably call the Socialist 911 number, and the Socialist police would show up to help, and so would the EMT's. The EMT's would bring her to the hospital, which would be paid for by her Socialist Government insurance. Afterward she would be required to undergo counseling which would all be paid for by her Socialist Government insurance.

Probably has to do with lead poisoning.

From her lipstick, which she seems to slather on.

That's the only explanation that makes any sense, because nobody with an unimpaired brain could be THAT fucking stupid...

Hey Michelle, sounds like a good plan. You first, OK?

I believe she was referring to the GI track belonging to an entity named freedom.

She later opined on how tasty she found freedom's brains, spinal cord and heart.
Still, it didn't quell her disappointment on missing out on that yummy bile filled gall bladder and the impacted descending colon.

contibuting passionately to the lifeblood of our political discourse and institutions. For too long the voices on intolerant insanity have been almost exlusively male.


"Folks, this is not your father's Republican Party."

You have a very valid point there. She stands up and proves that you don't have to be a political male to be bat shit crazy.


Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

Bachman has to be the first to slit her wrists and then all the uneducated, ignorant, racist Reslug terrorists, can get in line and do as she does.

why seek, ma'am, to allegedly have people hate you? why not try to work together with them to solve everyday problems, instead of spreading lies and idiocy about issues? and about this 'hating you' thing: actually, it's more likely who cares about you or who may pity you. but to actually hate you - i think you're flattering yourself too much. most people don't care enough about you to 'hate' you, as it would take too much energy. and you're not worth it too. you and Ms. Palin throw on the 'victim' blanket way too often. oh and you are an idiot.

I wondered if some of these stupid people have any idea what they are talking about,how do the think the rest of the world gets on.
This rather stupid republican is speaking out of her arse,has she never bothered to find out why people in other country's seem to get health care for about a quarter of what the US pays.
I thought we elected some dumb bastards into Parliament in my country but compared to her and her Republican party they are geniuses.

Amitola's picture

but, where'd she get this stuff about Democratic initiatives (on health care) "have the strength to destroy this country forever."???

What about the Repugs 'initiatives?? Like gutting the tax laws and financial oversight legislation; enacting the Patriot Act to rob us of civil rights; lying, cheating and stealing while letting corporations turn into monopolizing behemoths; invading sovereign nations to steal their resources to enrich themselves while killing millions of innocent human beings; sanctioning torture and rendition, and demonstrating their utter disdain for human life and dignity; ????!!!!

I know that Democrats have sat on their thumbs while these things have been perpetrated, and in some instances voted to affirm them. But, by and large....it has been the Republican Conservative movement and the neo-cons who have been destroying our country...from Reagan through Cheney/Bush. I am waiting for some Democrat....or some real American Patriot in our government to stand up and tell the TRUTH...loudly and clearly....and SOON!!

I attended a "Health Care Reform" meeting with a group of doctors and others at Rep. John Olver's office here in Pittsfield about a three weeks ago. He supports H.R. 676 and he let us (and the rest of his district) know that he would NOT be having any town hall forums in The Berkshires. This has ticked a lot of people off.

Now we have two tea bagger groups holding town halls in practically every town and village in The Berkshires on Health Care Reform without any official representatives present and the main thrust of their agenda is to "KILL THE BILL."

Michele Bachmann is their head cheerleader.

But here comes the scary part. Members of Physicians for a National Health Program and practically every person I have spoken to here in Massachusetts ALSO want to KILL H.R. 3200 because they have every reason to believe that it is THE MASS PLAN ON STEROIDS.

People here are NOT happy with the Mass Plan. It is highly discriminatory, it has the same rotten fines/penalties that H.R. 3200 incorporates, the same "exchanges" where one's income will be based on their federal tax returns and perhaps the best policy they will be able to afford will include a $5000 deductible!! etc. (Which is basically NO INSURANCE).

I'm talking to people here who cannot afford ANY plan and are opting to go without insurance and just pay the fine! ALL THEY CAN AFFORD IS THE FINE!!!

The doctors who support Conyers/Weiner H.R. 676 Amendment to H.R. 3200 ALSO WANT TO KILL H.R. 3200 AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO COMPROMISE!!!

The group, "Mad As Hell Doctors" who are caravanning to D.C. for a rally do NOT approve of a compromise. They are strictly Single Payer advocates.

So, here we have a strange bedfellows conundrum. The far right wing wackos who are Libertarian and basically want to kill H.R. 3200 out of their intense hatred of illegal immigrants and their general greed and the far left wing Progressives who realize that there can be NO "reform" of health care as long as profits/big corporate health insurance and big pharma are still allowed to control health care, are in agreement that H.R. 3200 is totally unacceptable legislation.

Tonight there will be a "Town Hall Forum on Health Care Reform" here in Pittsfield brought to us by the Tea Baggers. I will be there with other nurses and doctors to voice our opinions.

And I will be filming it and uploading it to YouTube.

I would appreciate comments from everyone on this. And remember. I am talking about highly educated physicians and nurses who are vehemently opposed to H.R. 3200 for MANY solid reasons.

And to see here that Obama is NOT demanding at a minimum a "robust public option" makes any "reform" totally unacceptable:

than have HR 3200 approved. It's nothing but a thousand(+) pages that takes America to the cleaners.

HR-676!

Why does everyone keep trumpeting POLITICO like it is some kind of meaningful, reliable, honest journalistic source? It's run by a former Reagan staffer who is also chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library Foundation.

The MASS plan has insurers dumping the sick on the public plan, increasing their profit margin while sticking the cost of care to the taxpayers.

No wonder they've unleashed the rabid dog rhetoric. Republican pols are justifiably terrified that a new, bigger version of Medicare for all Americans will be such an enormous, successful, popular government program that it will finally put the lie to all their bullshit about government being the ultimate evil.

Once Americans of all persuasions get a taste of an affordable, efficient Medicare-for-America program, there won't be much call for HMO's anymore, and all that corporate campaign money will dry up, along with any remaining support for the party of you-better-shit-your-pants-in-terror.
