Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) refused to concede on the idea that ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could be the prohibitive favorite in the 2016 presidential race, citing the biblical story of David and Goliath in a radio interview.
“All David needed was one smooth stone to fell the giant,” Bachmann told Christian radio host Jan Markell. “It wasn’t the stone, it wasn’t David, it was the strong right arm of a holy God. And, again, I believe that it’s, in some ways, up to us — if we repent, if we cry out to God, we have no idea what the Lord God will do for us in 2016.”
Bachmann then clarified for Markell that she did not believe Republicans should focus on one person or president being “our savior,” calling for her party to find the right message and sort out how it uses technology.
“We don’t have a very good technology to win elections,” Bachmann told Markell. “All of that needs to be done. But ultimately what we need to do is focus on what our “positive, big picture message solution needs to be.”
Okay is it just me, or was that a whole lot of batshit crazy?
So all the Republicans need in order to win in 2016 is for God to intercede on their behalf or for them to finally figure out how to work a computer?
Looks like it is smooth sailing for Hillary!
If I believed in a god I would have to ask MB why god seems to like President Obsma so much he elected him twice? And GB twice too? Funny guy that god of hers.
ReplyDeleteMB is ON something! Look at her eyes! I know they call her "Crazy eyes" but yeah look!
DeleteWhen I first saw her on KO's show (I think) talking her shit about muslim marxist in the WH.... I thought it was some kind of JOKE!
She is straight up Batshit as her sister Sarah Palin!
May they both burn in the fires of HELL!
Sarah Palin tries to hide her Insanity with those NON-PRESCRIPTION Glasses. Her WONKINESS
Deletewill always look crazy in her eyes. Her Stench is a mechanism that keeps the Media at bay. She has become bolder since Pimp Daddy joined that RAINBOW BORDELLO.
Well, really, it's all they have...God, a shitty grasp of technology, and a bunch of empty suits.
ReplyDeleteBachmann and Palin - the two biggest jokes in the USA! Palin found out that her god didn't open any doors for her and Bachmann is a total freak!
ReplyDeleteHillary Clinton will be their biggest nightmare and I can hardly wait to vote for her!
God said "NO" in 2008.
DeleteGod said "NO" in 2012.
Whats not to understand?
MB says, "if we repent, if we cry out to God, we have no idea what the Lord God will do for us in 2016."
ReplyDeleteAs the saying goes, "be careful what you wish for." I wonder what God will do for them because of their constant use of his name in trying to manipulate so many people's lives and the taking of so much of their hard earned money? Could be he has some other ideas up his sleeve, ideas other than what MB is thinking of. I wonder what kind of sense of humor God has? Think he might have a bit of the practical joker in him?
If they'd quit crying and start listening, they might have something there.

Here is one of the comments.
"So if I give a bunch of private personal information about U.S. citizens to a foreign government known to spy on the U.S. so aggressively that we have people serving life sentences for it, instead of being thrown in jail, I'll be paid $200,000 a year and get a nice pension? Or is it only illegal if normal, decent citizens do it?"
Wait, wait, don't tell me... eleventy dimensional chess!!!
I am not saying it is true or not. And I won't even do anything other than FILE it as potential information until more than one source backs it up.
DeleteI WILL say, however, that one must consider the source. It's kind of like listening to Faux News in that respect.
Besides, if you actually believe this is be something new you're dreaming.
Glen Greenwald is a lying piece of crap and you just revealed yourself for your ignorance to even post this garbage. He's been shown to lie over and over again, looking for attention, and attacking those that disagree or call him out. He's a sleazy, nasty, anti-Obama, bombthrowing asshole who is in cahoots with Wikileaks and Putin. Do some homework before you post this toxic shit on this lovely blog.
DeleteThe Corporations have been storing information on us, and we have been giving it to them willingly. How many of us get bugged every time we go to Lowes, asking us to get a "my Lowes card" to record every purchase we make at Lowes, done to the color . I'm sure that info could be shared with insurance Co, law enforcement and ect. probably without a warrant. I'm sure insurance co will be making sure they get this info.
DeleteLove how you get your panties into a wad how many years AFTER Bush et al put these laws into effect with the Patriot Act and the institution of the NSA. And Any 8:33 is right, corporations have been tracking us on our purchases and activities for more than a decade now.
DeleteIf the US government is really interested in the fact that I retiled my bathroom, that I prefer Fresh Linen air freshener over Tutti Fruitti or that my doormat is black, nto brown....go for it......personally, I find it damn convenient that I don't have to remember that it was white, not bisque tile when I need to replace a single cracked tile three years down the road.
DeleteI'm not sure I believe in the sky fairy. I believe Hillary Clinton is real, though.
ReplyDeleteMichele ("Crazy Eyes") Bachmann is essentially saying that they didn't pray hard enough to get Mitt Romney elected last time and to get Sarah Palin elected the time before that.
ReplyDeleteSo if they just do more of what didn't work, that ought to fix things! That, in a nutshell, is the basic insanity of fundamentalism.
My favorite definition of stupidity:
DeleteConstantly repeating what never worked whenever it was tried before and hoping it will work the next time it's tried!
I would love to talk with some of the children Michelle and Marcus fostered in their home. Get the rill dill on what went on in that home.
ReplyDeleteShe just called David a God. Is that okay?
ReplyDelete???????????????
DeleteOh come on. Even the dumbest kid in Sunday school knows she meant David's arm was EMPOWERED BY GOD!
As much as I hate to admit it, what she said is a very common interpretation of what happened. STUPID, but common.
If she and Marcus came up with a "big picture massage solution," they may gain traction.
ReplyDeleteThat's it, all conservative ladies are whack-job wing-nuts.
ReplyDeleteJan Markell has a ministry, writes books and is a radio show host. Bachmann was speaking to those who would understand her language.
ReplyDeleteIMO, somewhere along the road, some of these fundamentalists (not all, but those with money and those who seek their fortunes turning the gospel into a market), believe that the U.S. specifically has a role to play in the last days. They insist on reading what they want into it, turning themselves into the last days 'righteous' warriors who must fight (not literally) but put fear in others. They use "fear" to gullible christians; and make them afraid that if they don't get entangled with politics and vote all 'evil' out of public office that they'll have been defeated and feel very guilty they didn't try to promote God's agenda. Of course, people like Bachmann, think they can fool people all of the time. The woman is really saying under that fake righteous facade of hers is that she wants God to come and topple her political foes out of the way, so she and her cohorts can take over. And this coming from someone who has ethics investigations accusations.
People like Bachmann so want God to vindicate their country as the best, most noble, selfless, sinless nation before the Lord returns. They use fear tactics to force people to panic and vote. It's a cult. They want an amalgam of State/Religion. They believe that if they impose christianity on the masses, then God will be pleased. What?????
In my humble view, and as a christian, they are off their rockers. THey know scripture proves again and again that we are not setting up a kingdom on earth. Jesus didn't. We are to emulate Him and Him only. We invite and share and encourage. We don't throw "David"s stones to a Goliath". We are not under the Law of the Old Testament, Michele!!!! We are under a new law, and Jesus never threw any stones to slay his enemies.
And another thing, gggggrrrrrrrrrr, this has hit a nerve for me, Jesus and the apostles NEVER commanded his people to rise against the Ceasars or rise an army against evil kings. He left the things of the world to take charge of themselves. At any time in Hillary's life, she can walk and talk and have the attitude of the beatitudes, and so does President Obama.
If christians like Bachmann had the reigns, they'd soon arrest every unbeliever and force them to convert to christianity. I see a historic pattern here with this attitude.
Excellent analysis. I appreciate your thoughtful and considered "refudiation" of Michele "Crazy Eyes" Bachmann's gutteral political instincts and her ilk also too.
DeleteNot that her babbling deserves such eloquence in return.
DeleteWhen you look at her eyes you can see she is most definitely deranged. She's as fruity loops as her sister from another mother cuckoo for cocoa puffs Sarah.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how they always refer to God while being hateful, lying bitches!
"If we repent, if we cry out to God, we have no idea what the Lord God will do for us in 2016", she says.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Michele was taught what the NT teaches, which is we don't know if God will require our soul tonight, and that it would be best not to boldly lay out plans for next year, or 2016, without saying, "if God wills". Second, christians should repent, cry out to God, for THEMSELVES. I think Michele should consider her own soul before worrying about the nation. She jumps the shark on this one.
If God decides the presidential elections then apparently he and he alone put President Obama in the WH. Based on that, it looks like Hillary is God's candidate.
ReplyDeleteIf one reads the new Testament carefully, it is far more likely that God is a Democrat, or at least an Independent, Michelle! LOL!
ReplyDeleteDon't know about "God" but Jesus is a radical leftist.
DeleteI read posts by many fundamentalist Christians in 2001 that said God put W in the White House even though he lost the election. And yes "lost the election" is the way they put it. Why God failed in 2008 is never mentioned. I suspect that many blame the 2012 loss on Romney being a Mormon and in their eyes not truly Christian. In that context Crazy Michelle is part of the mainstream of fundamentalism.
ReplyDeleteWhen do we start seeing Shelly and Sara giving up some side boobs shots. That and saying crazy stuff gets them more clicks. Waiting for the porn flick with Sara and Shelly look-alikes doing a threesome with a McCain clone.

ReplyDeleteFringe conservative radio host Alex Jones said this week that an effort to avert a U.S. attack on Syria with diplomacy was actually a United Nations plot for the extinction of the human race, which would be replaced by “globalists” like President Barack Obama who would become cyborgs by using “life-extension technologies.”
On his Tuesday radio show, Jones said that efforts to have Syria place their chemical weapons under the control of the international community was a United Nations conspiracy to “come into any country they want, that has any type of weapons systems — and call them WMDs, and then dismantle that country’s infrastructure.”
The conspiracy theorist went on to explain that there were a lot of different interests wanting to control Syria, including Russia, the United States, France, Israel and Saudi Arabia.
“But it’s the globalists here running my life, that’s why they’re my front-and-center problem,” he said. “Because they are the biggest, most organized, eugenics-based, scientific dictatorship, trans-humanists at the top that plan the extinction of almost everybody and a new species to rise up or humans merged with machines.”
“That’s their religion, and no one’s discussing that,” Jones added. “Everyone is going to be deindustrialized, everyone is going to be put back into the Stone Age and controlled. And Obama and the globalists and the robber barons, they’re going to fly around in their jetcopters and their Air Forces Ones and their red carpets, like gods above us. And they’re going to get the life-extension technologies.”

Maybe it is the problem that skews their perception of the world?

Perhaps, Michele, you should explain exactly why you quit the ultra conservative WELS (Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Church) when you entered politics so you could lie through your teeth and take money, albeit inappropiately so you are now being investigated, in the name of GOD.
ReplyDeleteJust like your ex soul sista $arah, did you think this would turn out well for you? God slams those doors for those that use His name for selfish gain.

Oh my! Does this mean kneelers will be installed in voting booths so RWNJ's can "CRY out to God"? Or do they have to bring their own kneepads?
ReplyDeleteI hope she'll be called to serve in a different way. Crying out to God from behind bars.
Jon Stewart played a hilarious video of MB in the Middle East giving a speech. He then had Samantha B and two sidekicks redo the speech. It was absolutely hysterical.
