She didn't




Actually, she did.

She is known for having that wild-eyed crazy look, and she is known for not being able to look at a camera while speaking (see her response to President Obama's State of the Union Speech for an example).



She isn't. Just ridiculous, hate filled far Left rhetoric , intent on distorting her image.



It's not "distorting her image"; it's reporting what her image is.

She's certainly not known for her legislative record, because she doesn't have one to speak of. She has sponsored no bills which have made it out of committee, she's brought no important legislation to the floor. What WOULD we know her for? What are her accomplishments as a Representative? What's her record?

So to call it "unfair" of Newsweek to show the traits she's most known for is pure idiocy.



Actually, it isn't. As proven by multiple examples



You've provided no such examples.

Everybody who isn't in bed with the tea-baggers knows this. Rappy doesn't, but he also thinks she adopted 23 kids, so we can all see how little he knows about... well, ANYTHING, really.



She's fostered far more kids than you ever will, so that alone makes her a better person than most.



So everyone who fosters children gets your vote?

And do you have ANY evidence that I've never fostered 23 or 47 kids, or any, for that matter? I've only ever said here that I never *HAD* any kids. As in, *fathered* any. What evidence do you have that I've never fostered children in my home?

And with all the video cameras around Jon Stewart and the N.O.W., you of course have video to back up the claim that they called Newsweek an "asshole", right?


I mean, you're real big on providing "proof" of things, aren't you?


Care to back up that claim that it's not just your opinion that they're assholes?




My words, their view. Why are we still arguing about this ? Oh, of course, I know why. YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

You still don't get that the Stewart was setting up a joke. Of the fact that Bachman is the women that fails at history every time she opens her mouth. She is shown that things she says are wrong and continues to say them. That makes her crazy or a blatant liar.

Oh and she is also the person that started to freak out because a female reported followed her in a bathroom after she refused to answer questions.

Again, distorting the point, entirely.

You, as a extreme far Left liberal zealot, refuse to accept the fact that Newsweek intentionally distorted their coverage of her, for purely political reasons.

Even the far Left wing N.O.W. and John Stewart can honestly come to terms on that point, yet you can't.


Curious.

( plus, the fact that you continue to use that parody of Gasden's flag, simply shows that you hate America )



Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn't. You cannot shirk this and be a man. To decide against your conviction is to be an unqualified and excusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let men label you as they may. ~Mark Twain

Your conviction is anti- American. That much is clear. Also, you can't even accept that those on the Left are siding with Bachmann on this matter.

How petty of you.

Expressing ones opinions, no matter what they are, is the most American thing a person can do.

...and good for those on the left, unlike you I don't need a herd around me.

This is hilarious, coming from someone from Georgia, a state which up until very recently had on its flag the battle flag of the Confederacy, the most TRULY anti-American group in history!

What "TRUTH"? The TRUTH that nobody said what you said they said?

Yeah, I can handle that. I was the one who pointed it out to you, after all.

Your opinion isn't the issue here. It's the attempt by a news magazine to falsely paint a candidate in a negative light. They've gone to such lengths to distort her image as to post a test shot photo as their cover , with extremely an misleading caption.

Everyone can see this, and even those on the far Left ( at least those who are honest ) can come out and claim what Newsweek did was yellow journalism, and intentionally deceptive.


Why can't you just be civil and mature about this, admit that Newsweek went over board in what they did, and just leave it at that ?

Really not that much of an issue.

Enjoying the red herring ? Sure seems like it.
