Michele Bachmann runs away from CNN reporter trying to ask her questions about lies she told while speaking at CPAC.

Good for CNN for trying to confront Bachmann on her bullshit.

Bachmann is a joke, and sadly NOT the only one that is currently serving in Congress under the Republican banner.

    Someone needs to make a compilation video of all the instances of Republicans running away from reporters. It seems to be occurring with more and more frequency over the past few years...

      CNN hasn't been a joke "for years." The brutal battle among cable news/opinion shows is intense, and CNN has not done its best.

      Remember when it was the only 24/7 news station around the world? It may just return to that pinnacle. It still reports news, which many other outlets don't bother to do.

    Gryph, I'm sorry, but that last sentence of yours makes no sense. Did you mean that she isn't the only one or that she is the only one or what?

    Sorry for being so picky.

    3. Leland, I read it this way:

      "Bachmann is a joke, and sadly only one of many currently serving in Congress under the Republican banner."

      I love the way Republicans simply make up "facts." And then never apologize, never admit that they were wrong. Just make up more "facts."

    I watched this interview on the news and could not believe how quickly Michelle was walking - near a run! She is one lying woman - no doubt about it - it's continual and constant from her. How in the hell was she elected again? Voters are NOT paying attention.

    My motto - 'get as many as possible Republicans out of office' in their next election cycles. They have done nothing but create harm on the national, state and local levels!

    Why not follow-up with a written question delivered on camera to the office and also read live on-air putting the "run-away" politician on public notice that there's no "away" from the question to which they can run?

    Otherwise, it's just more of too many examples of "stunt-reporting" substituting for journalism.

      It wouldn't have been a stunt if the elected Representative who made false allegations hadn't tried to outrun her questioner -- and the questions -- to be confronted by facts alternate to her "reality."
      I think the reporter expected Bachmann to stop, and didn't know herself when the pursuit became ridiculous.

    Bachmann lives in the most conservative district in Minnesota. If she tried to run for an office outside of this district she would not have a chance. It sounds like her opponent in 2012, Jim Graves, is going to run against her again in 2014. I predict he will win.

    Why don't they do the same to Sarah Palin? It'd be hilarious to see her wobble away on her inappropriate and ludicrous platform shoes.

    Republican CD6 Primary Challenge for Michele Bachmann?
    Contrary to some recent reports that there is a quieter Michele Bachmann, She's all over the internets for slinging a heap of BS at the recent CPAC confab - a reeking pile of lies so huge, the fact-checkers at WaPo threw in the towel:

    So Bachmann yet again earns Four Pinocchios. But there really aren’t enough Pinocchios for such misleading use of statistics in a major speech.

    The awesome tsunami of condemnation includes even Bill O'Reilly.

    How long will the Republican Party of Minnesota continue to tolerate Michele Bachmann's reign of error? According to Jeff Kolb at Look True North there may be already a primary challenger.

      If there is a viable primary candidate, perhaps we should support him or her to our utmost.
      The general election will come soon enough, when we can send money and good wishes to whoever is chosen there.

    Republicans have attacked Democratic dogs since -- well, the 1940 campaign, when FDR used it to his advantage in talking about how the GOP was attacking him, his family, and "even my little dog Fala."
    Let's see, the Nixon's had Timaho, Reagan has some sort of Irish setter, the Bush I dog, Millie, even wrote and published her own book. Barney the Scottish Terrier saved Bush II from choking on a pretzel as they watched football together one Sunday.
    Really, Presidential pets are just part of the background.
    Bengazi is now six months old. It's time to move on from that, too, Michele B. If that's all the ammunition you've got, you have no reason to speak up.

    Michele Bachmann Crashes, Burns, and Takes The Republican Party Down With Her

    By claiming that Obamacare would literally kill people, and then calling Medicaid a ghetto, Michele Bachmann is destroying herself and the Republican Party.

    Here is the video:

    Bachmann said, “That’s why we’re here because we’re saying let’s repeal this failure before it literally kills women, kills children, kills senior citizens. Let’s not do that. Let’s love people, let’s care about people. Let’s repeal it now while we can. Later, Bachmann came back to the House floor to pile on to the destruction, “Here’s the one that no American wants to be in. It’s the Medicaid ghetto,” she said. “And that’s where the lowest possible care, where very few doctors will be available available to offer this kind of care.”

    Many have focused on Bachmann returning to form by saying things that are crazy, but there is a much bigger fish frying. Michele Bachmann’s latest right wing ‘episode’ has done major damage to the RNC’s efforts to fix their party. Just a few days ago, the talk was centered on the RNC’s autopsy report on how they lost the 2012 election. The discussion was centered on how Republicans could repair their party. Three days later, Michele Bachmann’s rant has firmly placed the Republican Party back on the same path that it was before.

    When Michele Bachmann uncorks a rant about Obamacare, Medicaid, or Benghazi she confirms the widely held belief that the Republican Party is completely out of step with the rest of the country. Bachmann comments will get all the headlines, and she makes all Republicans look crazy.

    The RNC doesn’t get it. Their problem isn’t “minority outreach,” or better data collection. Their problem is Republicans like Rep. Michele Bachmann.

    Say, Gryphen, I was looking at my high school year book recently and came across a picture of a girl I havent seen in (enter large number here) years who is absolutely the spitting image of a young Shelly Bachmann. I mean, literally down to the actual spitting.

    Anyway, I'm pretty busy these days, so can you do some research and see if the distinguished congresswoman was once known as Ernestine Kuntwhistle? Ernestine's middle name, which she only used in secret satanic blood ceremonies, was either Amelia or Argothnot.

    As I recall she was related to the wealthy Kuntwhistles of Kuntwhistle, Kuntwhistle, Pennyfarthing and Kousins, the famous peach pit exporters and founders of the American Peach Pit Museum based in either far southwestern Alabama or northeastern Southern California.

    I dont mean to be impatient, but could you get on this right away? I'm really anxious to know. Thanks.

    Rumor has it Shelly got those epic quick running moves because she's married to Totally straight 24/7 hunk a hunk o' burning love Marcus "Mc Dreamy" "Love Machine" Bachmann. Where do you think their HUGE brood of kids come from? No wonder Dana had trouble keeping up!

    Shelly MUST know her stuff! Isn't she on the Senate Intelligence Committee?

    Good for Anderson and Dana! But it's not enough to pry me from MSNBC.
