Larry King Live: Michele Bachmann Dodges the Question on Whether the Birthers are Crazy
By Heather Wednesday Oct 07, 2009 9:00am
From Larry King Live Oct. 6, 2009. Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann does her best to avoid answering the question first of all on whether she agrees with the birthers or not on where the president was born, and she completely dodges answering, with the help of GOP flack Ari Fleischer, whether she thinks the birthers are nuts or not.
She also claims that the only ones who are raising the issue are those on the left and is nearly laughed off the set. It's clear Michele didn't want to completely piss off her wingnut base while doing her best to try to appear sane on Larry King's show.
It's hard to say what was worse. Bachmann's dodge or Ari Fleischer trying to compare those on the left who were upset about the stolen presidential election to the wingnut birthers. NOT the same thing Ari. Epic fail there bud.
KING: James, were you going to comment on some of this falderal?
CARVILLE: I would love to comment on (INAUDIBLE), where you left off.
FLEISCHER: So would I.
(CROSSTALK)
FLEISCHER: Go ahead, James. You go first.
CARVILLE: Well, first of all, there are seven Republicans in the House that have birther legislation before there. And one of the things that people don't like is that politicians get a simple yes or no question and they try to evade it, just like I heard Cong -- the Congresswoman do. She's known to be very outspoken...
BACHMANN: Oh, not at all. I answered.
CARVILLE: I can't believe that she doesn't have the courage just to give us a simple yes or no answer -- do you believe that these birthers are plum crazy, because that's what Senator Graham was saying?
And it's a simple question -- do you believe that they're crazy or not?
KING: But that was the only question...
FLEISCHER: Let me -- let me jump in.
KING: (INAUDIBLE).
(CROSSTALK)
KING: Do you think they're nuts?
All right, go ahead, Ari. Go ahead.
FLEISCHER: I -- I think this movement is nutty. I think this is nutty. I think there's no evidence and people shouldn't waste any time on it.
But I want to point out something that is a terrible hypocrisy about all of this. When George Bush was elected, there were many people who called him illegitimate and said that he lost Florida despite there being no evidence of that being the case.
CARVILLE: I was one.
FLEISCHER: But nobody...
CARVILLE: I was one.
FLEISCHER: But hold on a second. Hold on, James.
CARVILLE: Yes. OK. I was one of them.
FLEISCHER: Hold on. Nobody blew the whistle and started to say, well, wait a minute, aren't these people on the left nutty?
It always seemed that people said George Bush was a divider, not a uniter and they didn't talk about the tactics of the left being the problem.
Now, when people on the right are making claims that are not supported, it's as if all the media referees now can't wait to blow their whistle and throw their flags and say the problem is on the right.
That's hypocritical. And if you ask me, there's -- there's a loony factor in both parties. And I'd say for everyone who's a little lulu on the left, there's -- I mean on the right -- every one who's a little lulu on the right, there's about 1.8 who's lulu on the left.
CARVILLE: Well, I was one.
Hill Harper
KING: Mr. Carville, you look excited.
(CROSSTALK)
CARVILLE: The Supreme Court stopped it -- it stopped the count that -- that Al Gore was going to win. But that's OK. I can't believe that Congressman Bachmann...
FLEISCHER: That's -- no, that's not the point.
CARVILLE: -- couldn't answer a yes or no question.
BACHMANN: I answered the question.
CARVILLE: You see -- are they crazy or not?
BACHMANN: And I answered it very clearly.
CARVILLE: No, you didn't.
BACHMANN: What I -- what I said...
CARVILLE: Are they nutty or not?
BACHMANN: The people in my district want to know where are the jobs? That's what I hear over and over...
CARVILLE: Again -- again, let me ask you...
BACHMANN: ...meeting after meeting...
KING: I understand that...
(CROSSTALK)
KING: Hold it, hold it, hold it.
BACHMANN: No one is bringing this issue up and...
KING: Congresswoman, I am -- Congresswoman, the only thing was the question was simple -- do you believe the birthers? Forget the district, forget the jobs for a moment. Do you believe President Obama was born in the United States?
BACHMANN: I have no reason to doubt that he wasn't born in the United States. I have none. The only place that this issue comes up is on the left. You don't hear people on the right bringing this issue up. Honest...
(CROSSTALK)
KING: Then where did it start?
BACHMANN: In Minnesota, the only thing people are interested in are where are the jobs?
KING: Do you think the left started it?
BACHMANN: I don't know. I have no idea.
(CROSSTALK)
KING: OK. Go ahead.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Let -- let's --
KING: Hill?
HARPER: OK.
BACHMANN: It's a non-issue. The jobs are the issue.
HARPER: Let's hold on something that...
KING: All right. So, therefore, you don't believe it, right?
BACHMANN: I don't believe that -- you mean where President Obama was born?
KING: That he was born somewhere else.
BACHMANN: The president has shown his birth certificate...
KING: You don't -- you don't believe he was born.
BACHMANN: The president has shown his birth certificate.
KING: OK.
(CROSSTALK)
BACHMANN: The real issue is jobs.
HARPER: I want to pick up something.
KING: All right.
(CROSSTALK)
HARPER: I want to pick up something.
(CROSSTALK)
HARPER: Basically that Ari was saying and do there. My mother was from South Carolina. I spent every summer there growing up with my grandparents. Let's celebrate Senator Graham for standing up for -- within his party and saying let's actually talk about the issues. I think that's what we should be talking about. Let's talk about issues. Let's talk about progress. Let's talk about best results.
KING: Now, OK. The Congresswoman's brought up jobs. She has a good point, does she not, James?
CARVILLE: Of course she has.
KING: The job -- the unemployment rate has gone up.
CARVILLE: Well, of course, she has a point and -- and when that administration left, there were 632,000 jobs a month they were losing. We were down to 250,000, 300,000. The unemployment rate is up because people are back looking for jobs again, because they're seeing that there's at least some -- some signs of some life somewhere in this economy.
But certainly it's not good enough. But I think that we -- if we keep pressing on again, I think, in a year or so, I think before this is over, we'll start to show something.
But, yes, absolutely. But, you know, we're asking young men to -- to go to Afghanistan and face the Taliban. When you see a Congressman get a simple question that they're asked and they can't stand up and answer the question, I...
BACHMANN: I absolutely answered the question.
CARVILLE: No, you didn't. Are these people nutty?
BACHMANN: Yes, I absolutely did. I absolutely answered the question.
CARVILLE: Are they nutty or not?
FLEISCHER: Larry...
BACHMANN: I told you exactly what happens in my district.
CARVILLE: See, that's what -- that's the problem here.
BACHMANN: And in my dictating, people want to know where the jobs are? They're not interested in this fringe issue.
FLEISCHER: Larry -- Barack Obama was...
(CROSSTALK)
FLEISCHER: Larry, Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, but now all our children are born in debt. And that's the problem...
BACHMANN: That's the problem.
FLEISCHER: ...in the country with the policies (INAUDIBLE)...
BACHMANN: That's the problem.
FLEISCHER: ...today. James talked about unemployment. When they passed the first stimulus spending bill, they promised us, the administration did, that the unemployment rate would not exceed 8.0 percent if that was passed. Today, it's 9.8 percent. It hasn't worked. We're economically going backwards. We have a $1.2 trillion deficit and we're mortgaging our children's future.
This, I think, is the political problem on the domestic end. It's also led to the fact that so many Independents and senior citizens who used to be for Barack Obama and the Democrats have really had a change of heart since January 20th. I think that's the fundamental domestic issue that's driving politics today.

Ari deserves credit for this line
""FLEISCHER: Larry, Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, but now all our children are born in debt. And that's the problem...""
We are gonna be hearing htis over and over again! We need a rebuttal, and quick.
The debt we're in now is the result of GOP policies and lack of governance for 8 years. The debt we're incurring now is the only hope we have of there being a country for our kids to be into, in debt or not.
If you can then show the graphs/charts that shows the deficit and how it grew or shrank under dem and repub presidents.
Yes, born in debt. That's not their fault and that's not Obama's fault. But they will be bankrupt by 10 if we don't get them universal health coverage.
Andexx charts has some great graphs showing that trend ;)
Oh and it was 12 years as we need to count the Gingrich revolution. Tar Gingrich as much as we can as they are gonna pull him out to be their next saviour. (Delay is too busy with his dancing career)
Following the new trend for republicans, Delay quit his dance gig last night. He had boo-boos on his feet and decided to hang up his dancing shoes before he could be booted off the show. He threw himself an exiting pity party.
both of his feet and is out. Either my wish came true or the pesticides he has polluted with for so long have caught up with him. Poetic justice either way.
Anyone think that the network was getting grief for putting a convicted felon on their show.
What we need is to ask Mr. Carville et al to respectfully get the f*ck out of the way and go back to do what they do best, suck up to conservatives. He is not a liberal, he does not look like one, he does not walk like one, and most definitively doesn't quack like one.
For Mr. Fleischer to say with a straight face that about debt is beyond criminal. Especially since he was part of the administration which accrued more debt than the previous 42 administrations before it COMBINED. So this asshole deserves no credit for that, if anything he deserves to be hit with a wet sock. Any liberal pundit should have answered that claim in 2 seconds flat, and punch Mr. Fleischer in the mouth for even thinking he could get away with such shit.
Enough is enough.
Ari Fleischer is an elitist asshat.
Actually, he's an elitist asshat hanger on.
Who gives a fuck what he says.
Oh, hark at them. NOW they're suddenly all concerned about running up debts.
We call these children born into debt Bush Babies....born during the administration that has added more to our national debt (by far) than any other president.
My god man, you really have no idea have you?
What's Fleischer going to say? That he wasn't mouthpiece for the administration that slashed taxes while starting a war of aggression?
blaming some poor son-of-a-bitch from steerage for the sinking of the Titanic because when he snuck in to the rich peoples bar he asked for extra ice in his last drink...
Meanwhile Bachmann says her people wonder where the jobs are. Well you idiot, there are no jobs because you and your Party destroyed the economy and it is going to take years because you assholes were blind and didn't care that this was going to happen because the bubble made it look like the economy was really nice as it was heading to the cliff. It's like trying to bring the car back up after it has driven over a 300 foot cliff and there are only two of you try to bring it up. You can't just turn on a switch to change it, dog breath. Don't try to blame this on Obama because it will only make you look as stupid as you look regarding the birther fiasco that you perpetuated.
So when the people in your district ask where the jobs are over and over just tell them that you and Bush fucked up and destroyed the economy to make it look better. Tell them to ask their neighbors for help, queenie.
... they'll rescue the driver, but they don't bother retrieving the cars.
a-MEN!
Oh man, I was going to watch this last night and right at the beginning Ari Fleischer came on and said a stupid lie that was irrelevant to what the discussion was going to be so I told myself, "Self, turn the channel before you burst a vein." So I missed this. When he says something like,
Well god damn it, you are a liar, dickhead. It is enough to make me spit.
... that this happened in the state where George's brother was Governor and allegedly had an affair with the Secretary of State ...
http://www.consortiumnews.com/2001/111201a.html
Read Gore Vidal's interview with Johann Hari on the Huffington Post, despite the website being a joke these days.
At least Bachmann was stupid enough to say that only the left brings this up. Even her tea bagging followers know that is one of the dumbest statements they have ever heard.
How did this idiot get elected??????
Because she's purty....
I think Bachmann and Harris were separated at birth....
(I wonder if they were BORN with all that make-up on?)
...I was lookin at some old country music videos on YouTube, and there's one of Loretta Lynn when she was a Sweet Young Thang, (or maybe a little older) and, boy, she sure looked like Michelle....
I have to disagree. The tea baggers are that stupid.
..issue up? The LEFT will rebut lies and most of the left could care less which state Obama was born in, just as long as another repub isn't the President. She is such an..how can I say this politely..intellectually challenged individual you'd think there should be a nurse by her side keeping her from eating the curtains.
One last thing;
These assholes keep harping on the fact hat there is 9.8% unemployment when Obama's people said that there would be only 8% with the stimulus. Only stupid people could not know that unemployment would be much worse without the stimulus and it is Bush's fault that we are losing jobs and the unemployment is so high. It will be Bush's fault for a long time. Years!! But then you have to remember that it is the stupid people that the Republicans are catering to. Stupid people who the leadership of the Republican Party do not give a damn about except their vote. They take their vote and then shit on them and the stupid people sit there with their mouths open.
And here I thught she was more into playing volleyball
Braless.
I love how this kind of comment is acceptable if your enemy is a woman. We sure wouldn't tolerate you making digs at Michael Steele because he's black, but anyone is allowed to piss on someone for being a woman.
Michael Steele playing volleyball braless? Really? Noooo......
(Just kidding)
rash limpballs playing volleyball braless? Really? Noooo......
I dream of the day when any of these assholes can answer a direct question with a direct answer.
"Do you think the birthers are nuts?"
"Yes."

BACHMANN: I have no reason to doubt that he wasn't born in the United States. I have none. The only place that this issue comes up is on the left. You don't hear people on the right bringing this issue up. Honest...
Having no reason to doubt he wasn't born in the United States....she basically answered the question by say she has no reason to believe he was born in the the United States.
and the only place this comes up is on the left?
ridiculous!
What a lying whack job
Please wake up Minnesota
A double negative is a positive, and, thus, your quote of Bachmann means that she has reason to doubt Obama was born in the US. Re-read your own quote. She has no reason to doubt that he was not born in the US means she has reason to doubt he was born in the US!
OK, you got me on a small semantic point, but the message was basically the same:
"I don't believe the President of the United States is actually an American citizen, or eligible to be the Commander-in-Chief, but I won't come right out and say it that obviously when not on Fox News."
There has been no actual evidence brought to light which casts legitimate doubt on President Obama's US citizenship. What Bachman said was that apparently nothing she has seen has proven to her that President Obama was born in the United States, and therefore she has "no reason to doubt that he wasn't born in the United States".
I have no reason to doubt that he was born in the United States, because I was also born in Hawaii and have a Certificate of Live Birth that I used to get my fist drivers license in California, the Federal Election Committee vetted and certified President Obama's eligibility prior to the election, and the two Hawaii newspapers that I used to read Advertiser and Star-Bulletin both contained birth announcements.
The fact she could not, and would not, just answer the question by saying "I believe the President of the United States is a rightful and naturally born citizen" let's me know what her intentions are. It is ridiculous for US Senators and Representatives to be pushing this straw man argument when our country needs them to be doing the job they were elected to (Unemployment, Economy, Healthcare, Iraq/Afghanistan, etc).
Supposedly the mark of craziness is not realizing you are crazy.... so how would she be able to answer the question? In her mind, she's sane and so are others who think the way she does. IOW, crazy.

"It always seemed that people said George Bush was a divider, not a uniter "
maybe it has to do with the history of one Karl" turd blossom" Rove, or when Dick Cheney said something to the effect of "we are not trying to please everyone, just 50% plus 1.
damn why is Ari the lier Fleischer coming back into our world?
sort of off topic but...
everyone shoud hear what Robert F, Kennedy said about dividing the people in the country. we are seeing it and living it today, there is no denying it. Please take a moment to especially listen to the last half of this brief speech. (at the 2:05 mark) and pass it on..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8vm6AsZw40&fe...
...should be treated like a felon the next time they try to vote. BTW, Bachman has the kind of flighty gaze of a woman who would strip nude if a complete stranger asked her to.
Where's the brain bleach? Ewwwwwwww!
I remember a State of the Union speech Bush gave and on his way in Michelle Bachmann practically shoved her tongue down his throat. She had that crazy glassy eyed look of worship......for Bush. Sick.
That was the first time I knew that she existed. I remember wondering who in the hell that crazy woman was and why didn't the secret service get her under control. Pretty surprising when I found out she was a member of the house of representatives.
But I could feel the love...
Yuck, I wouldn't want to feel anything that had to do with Bachmann. She's so fu*king crazy that it might be contagious.

and that's morphed into . .
big businesses media aims at keeping ordinary Americans so engaged in politcal gossip and polarity that they won’t notice that their country is still being robbed by the wheeler-dealers.
Michelle "Mutant Psycho Hose Beas" Bachman needs to be confined for her own protection. Ari Fleischer should be selling used cars...what a liar.
Would you buy a used car from Ari? He would starve to death in that trade.
The day after 9/11 at a press conference where he addressed the American public and said:
"You'd better watch what you do and watch what you say."
Roh-row.....
Kind of like waking up and finding a dead horse's head in your bed wasn't it?
The horse's body was under the sheet.
Yeah, in the movie maybe not, but with the bush administration I would bet on the horse being dead as hell and his body in cold storage for cheney to munch on later.
Better than waking up with Cheney under your sheet.
I would burn my bed, my house and probably shoot myself with a gun I don't even have.
Looks like the ship of fools arrived at port and Bachmann and Ari forgot to secure the lines leaving the vessel to float with the current.
This was the same tack that Joe Scarborough used this morning when having a pissing match with Max Blumenthal. Just screaming the left did it too, is not exactly an adult reply to an accusation.
.
Please! I hate that fuck Ari Fleischer and seeing his lying smug ass always make me wanna puke. A fucking rock has the brains to see the illegitimacy of the 2000 election as every bit reasonable!
90% of the "discussions" had about the lunacy of the right are a testament to the STUPIDITY of the American people and/or the media.

Every child born since 2001 has been born into debt. How did that happen?
Two decided to "do it" and the results were a child. Not having children is a truly revolutionary act.
I wouldn't DARE bring a child into this mess . . however that is no excuse to not be concerned with the welfare of those already born into it.
When will people realize that life is for the living?
The hording of wealth (i.e. millionaires, etc.) along with allowing inheritance creates the status quo where all of us not wealthy are born into poverty and essentially slavery. The key, again, is that life is for the living. Dead people should not earn more than the living (see, Michael Jackson), and dead people should not control the future of the living.
respect to land ownership. Perhaps they should be expanded, and probably would be if anyone understood them.

Why does Larry King even have a show? He's the worst interviewer/discussion leader on television.
.
... CNN might replace ol' Larry with another hour of Slobbs.
I couldn't say it better. Larry King is part of the problem. Of course, I haven't watched him in probably 10 years. I just can't imagine who does.
I think it's kind of funny that they had to go out to the garbage can and dig out someone like Ari to be on with her. I doubt many elected republicans would take them up on their invite.
Ari Fleischer is not just a lying piece of shit, but an original lying piece of shit. As press secretary for a lying piece of shit president (whose very presidency was deetermined by lying-piece-of-shit judges), he set the standard that would be followed by Scott McClellan(the lying piece of shit who squealed), Tony Snow(the lying piece of shit who got his chops working for a lying-piece-of-shit news network), and Dana Perino (lying-piece-of-shit Barbie).
If Ari Fleischer ever tells you the sun is shining, grab an umbrella.
If you add up all the pieces, do you get to take a whole shit?
If you add up all the pieces you get the bush administration and you'll need a giant pooper scooper to clean it up.
Apparently, that wouldn't be "looking forward" enough.
You have to get those who could clean up the poop to admit that the poop NEEDS to be cleaned up.
... definitely have enough invested in the sandbox.
Holding onto eyeballs is the premier task of MSM. Want to keep people from changing the channel?....show them T&A...show them a dingo eating a baby....show them a skateboarder breaking his arm....AND SHOW THEM MICHELLE BACHMAN BEING BATS*%T CRAZY....she's a slow motion train wreck every time she's on the air and producers can't get enough. The truth is, Michelle Bachman is loving the attention.
Or show them a jackal retching.

Ari needs to be reminded that President Bush/Cheney, when they were pushing their tax cuts for the wealthy, were questioned about the effect on the country's debt ( even McCain, before he became the Republican candidate for '08, thought it was dangerous to have tax cuts in a time of war) Bush responded that the tax cuts would stimulate the economy and goverment revenues would grow- did not happen and now we are in a big mess. My Children thank YOU Ari for their share of the Debt. Now is not the time to complain about Debt Ari- should have been the voice of reason when you had a President that you had his ear.
think they get payed to follow the script.
Ah yes, the 2000 election here in Florida. There was the magic marker eye lined Teresa LaPore who designed the infamous butterfly ballots in Palm Beach County. There was crazy Katie Harris who was gaga over the bush boys. Good times. Good times.
Has anyone ever seen Crazy Katie and Bachmann in the same room? Maybe Crazy Katie got a face lift to match her chest lift and is now known as Michele Bachmann.
That kind of mega-crazy is rare!
If Gore had won we might have to look forward to Florida 2020.
If Gore had won in 2000, I doubt I would be typing this message right now. It was my anger over that election and then my friend being sent to Iraq that drove me to getting involved on the inter-tubes of the net.
which led you to stop performing without the net?
Had Gore won, no one would have needed a net. We would all have been a lot safer no matter what we did.

Let's parse her statement:
BACHMANN: "I have no reason to doubt that he wasn't born in the United States."
That's called a double negative, folks.
Through her well-rehearsed double-speak, she actually stated that she doubts the President was born in the U.S..
She's feeding into the nutty conspiracies through her double speak.
Why is this woman still in congress? What the heck is wrong with the voters in her district?
