Michele Bachmann is "Hot for Jesus." Jesus might want to look into getting a restraining order.
I find it absolutely hysterical that these people believe that they are in the "real" reality. They are so far removed form reality it is not even funny.
"The one thing that I knew, that I knew, that I knew." This is the same phrase that Sarah Palin used to say. What in the hell does it even mean?
I do NOT think that Bachmann understands what he word "hot" actually means.
Apparently God order this wingnut to marry a man who is clearly a closeted, deeply in denial, gay man, and to attend the the most pathetic "law school" in the country.
So the question is "Why does God hate Michele Bachmann so much?"

It must be nice going through life with no idea about the REAL world.........another custom order of red straight jackets please--same size as scara's.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen this video yet, but these kooky-kristians seem to surround themselves with sexual commentary - one of the comments on Bristol's book at amazon had the following: "She sitteth on the right hand of the Divine Sarah and will come again to judge both the quick and the dead. Let's hope that Bristol is "not afraid of life" for at least a century!!! When the rapture comes, she will be dancing on the lap of Jesus."
ReplyDeleteSeriously? She's going to give Jesus a lap dance? And really? Bristol is going to JUDGE? How effed up do you have to be to believe this shit?
I am outraged, that in the US, we have to listen to politician's religious beliefs.
ReplyDeleteI don't care what their religious beliefs are. You would have thought by now the 'christian' would have caught on.
Those that claim to be 'christian' ar the ones that are cheating on their wives with other women AND men.
They lie us into wars. They do not have a 'servant heart' unless they are serving corporate greed, or serving the wealthy.
Please keep your religion to yourself. Half the time, you scare me with your crazy talk.
I am a Christian, not evangelical, and I am not interesting in living under YOUR christian values.
Because I don't understand them.
Mine are love one another, Do unto others ... and Don't lie cheat or steal. Oh, and don't cheat in your marriage.
End of rant!
The odd phrasing about knowing, and knowing that you know, is probably based on something like the following, which circulates in various versions and attributions:
ReplyDelete"Men are four: He who knows not and knows not he knows not, he is a fool--shun him; He who knows not and knows he knows not, he is simple--teach him; He who knows and knows not he knows, he is
asleep--wake him; He who knows and knows he knows, he is wise--follow him!

Absolutely repulsive! She doesn't miss a chance to throw in there that she's "raised" 5 kids and 23 foster babysitters. Oops...I meant foster kids.
ReplyDeleteImagine this screwy bitch with access to the nuclear codes.If that doesn't scare you you are dead.The very stuff of nightmares.
ReplyDeleteThat church should lose it's tax exempt status. I'm embarrassed for her and yet, I wouldn't be able to sit in an audience listening to that silly woman without laughing. "Hot for Jesus? Hot for God?"
ReplyDeleteDidn't she just say she "was a 50 year old woman" yet I know I've heard her say she is 55 and the internet says she's 55. WHICH IS IT, Bachmann?
Sharon1943
Hmmm, can't we just say Bachmann's hubby is a creepy, insensitive, misguided, small thinking poor excuse for a human without attributing his behavior to being gay, even a self-hating gay?
ReplyDeleteFor my money he doesn't have enough class, style or elan to be gay.
"Seriously? She's going to give Jesus a lap dance? And really? Bristol is going to JUDGE? How effed up do you have to be to believe this shit?"
ReplyDeletePersonally I find it much more likely that after 25 or 30 wine coolers, Bristol will be the one doing lap dances in the afterlife.
Quitter, meanwhile, will be stuck at the pearly gates shrieking at St. Peter that she SHOULD be in the Big Book of Who Gets In!!!!, because she WAS a Rill Commonsense Conservative Evangelical Christian on earth, ya know...well, kind of.... but all of those hateful things she said and lies she told were "misunderstandings."
In the end, Bristol lapdances for St. Peter, and he ultimately decides to keep her at the gate for line entertainment. Mama Grizzly heads south, throwing cans all the way.
dz, there was a post on the Bachmanns at HP a few days ago. There were a number of self-identified gays commenting. They all said that Marcus is a flaming-in-the-closet queen and provided links proving their case by his walk (amazing, beauty pageant walk), his talk, his mannerisms. They said, in essence, that it takes one to know one & they all said, without a doubt that he is one and reviled him for his homophobia. They predicted that it wouldn't be long before one of his "rent boys" would come forward & out him.
ReplyDelete"Lord, we thank you for the encouragement that you give us in these issues of -- of marriage and of -- of LIFE, Father. We see so much encouragement."
ReplyDelete-- Michele Bachman, leading the Faith and Freedom Conference in prayer, June 3, 2011
That she's dead-set on turning HER personal religious beliefs into laws that govern us all is bad enough.
But claiming to see "so much encouragement" from God ... !?
I'm gonna hurl.
Reminds me of Faith+1 from South Park: "Whenever I see Jesus up on that cross, I can't help but think...that he looks kinda hot!"
ReplyDelete*lol* I agree, someone better call Jesus and tell him that this ninny is ruining his street cred.
Whew it's HOT... I'm HOT, are you HOT?
ReplyDeleteYes Michele it's so HOT isn't it? Lying sometimes has that effect, along with wearing too much polyester.
Listen if I had gotten a Law Degree at ORAL ROBERTS COLLEGE of the SHEEPLES? ummm I don't think that's a resume boost, but then perhaps there was a shiny plastic toy at the bottom of the box when she had finished.
Oh my goodness! Last week on the radio I heard audio of Bachmann's husband calling gays "barbarians". My husband and I looked at each other. He is so in the closet! I can't wait to see what he looks like.
ReplyDelete"Apparently God order this wingnut to marry a man who is clearly a closeted, deeply in denial, gay man, and to attend the the most pathetic "law school" in the country."
ReplyDeleteRight on. Liberty Law school is a sham. Remember the young woman in the Bush administration who was a graduate of Liberty and was sacked for some seriously bad behavior? I wish I could remember her name ... In any event, the school seeks to become a "force" for Jesus in the political world.
God forbid.
As for Marcus Bachmann, "Good grief man! Get yourself some counseling. This is some serious in the closet activity!"
Whoops! It was Regent Law School, another equally lame school: http://www.pamshouseblend.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=1322
ReplyDeleteMore than 150 graduates of this school held positions in the Bush Administration.
You know, "taking back the country" ...
As the now gravid, unwed, Paris Hilton always says "That's Hawt!"
ReplyDeleteThe christianist with a small c, Cult with a capial C needs it's tax exempt status taken away.
Did Marcus drop his nail file during this speech? Five children and 23 monthly government checks? Did Marcus have to close his eyes five times while fantasizing of gay porn, or just go the turkey baster route?
(insert puke here)
She's just as entertaining as Sarah and almost as vapid.
Menopause?
ReplyDeleteYou should watch the movie 'Selling God'!
ReplyDeleteMichele Bachmann graduated from the O.W. Coburn school of Law at Oral Roberts University, founded 1979 and closed 1986. Bachmann enrolled in 1979 and graduated in 1986 according to internet sources.
ReplyDeleteThe donor the law school was named for O.W. Coburn is the father of U.S. Senator Thomas Coburn Republican Oklahoma.
Senator Coburn is an obstetrician and a senator, and apparently does some occasional marriage counseling, possibly as a part of his "C Street" 'practice'; as evidenced by his statements and actions in the Sen. John Ensign scandal.
It must be coincidental that Michele Bachmann is a graduate of a Law School named for and partially funded by Sen. Coburn's father.
Sen. Tom Coburn, a fellow conservative and confidant of Ensign's, affirmed to reporters Thursday that he knew about Ensign's affair and told him to end it. However, he denied allegations that he urged Ensign to pay off his mistress, Cindy Hampton, or her family.
"I categorically deny that," Coburn said when asked whether he had discussed with Ensign making payments to the Hamptons, the Tulsa World reports.
Coburn's statements came in response to accusations from Doug Hampton, Cindy's husband, in a televised interview with Jon Ralston of the Las Vegas Sun.
"This was at the request of Tom Coburn and some people to try and help them manage John," Doug Hampton said about the proposal to pay the family.
While Coburn denied that allegation, he said some of his discussions with Ensign remain "privileged" because Coburn was acting in his capacity as a physician and church deacon, according to the Tulsa World.
Coburn is a family practice physician who specializes in obstetrics.
Ensign's lawyer revealed yesterday that the senator's parents paid the Hamptons $96,000 as a gift made "out of concern for the well-being of long-time family friends during a difficult time."

Bachmann's 'hot' testimony would have made me cringe even back in my fundamental Christian days. Creepy.
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting that she actually said the name 'Jesus', a name I haven't heard Sarah use.
Read the book "Crazy For God" By Frank Schaeffer, son of the famous evangelical couple Edith and Frank Schaeffer. He bemoans the role he played in the ramping up of the conservative right wing come to jesus movement. He also says his father was a depressive who regularly beat his mother and both of them sought well-heeled benefactors to keep their ministry alive. He also said Billy Graham pulled his daughter out of Wheaton College when she was 17 years old and arranged a marriage to a wealthy man 20 years older than her.
ReplyDeleteYou just can't make this crap up.
Gryphen,
ReplyDeleteI suspect that the phrase "I know, that I know, that I know" is another dominionist dog whistle code word tag that only the "anointed" will understand. I can't find it in any of the online dominionist code word lexicons, however.
Any recovering dominionists out there that know the scoop on "I know, that I know, that I know?"
Anytime you encounter stilted or clunky phrases, especially ones repeated or used by other fundagelicals, suspect that dominionist dog whistle code is being employed. Especially from Bachmann, Palin, and Santorum.
I think its high time we all just accepted the fact that the Floundering Fathers were deeply religious, and intended the new nation to be a full theocracy.
ReplyDeleteAnd embrace the Ayatollah Bachmann as our spiritual leader.
The O.W. Coburn School of Law was "gifted" to CBN University (founded by Pat Robertson- Christian Broadcasting Network= CBN) in 1985.
ReplyDeleteIn 1990 CBN was renamed Regents University.
See this Pam's House Blend for some details on other Regent's graduates in the Bush Administration.

I am a woman whose bestfriend of over 16 years is a gay man . Because of this frienship I've been around many gay men and I have highly tuned "gaydar". I saw an interview of "Ms" Marcus Bachmann. He came prancing down a hall and then launched into an anti-gay tirade. When I saw his swish I was almost certain he was gay. The moment he opened his mouth I was POSITIVE. All of the gay men I know say he is most certainly Gay. Also I know this is gossip but I heard he trolls the Gaybars looking for people to "CURE".
ReplyDeleteOK, so the church can't publicly endorse a candidate, yet the pastor does, IN the church. Then he allows the candidate to give a stump speech IN the church, where he can't endorse a candidate.
ReplyDeletePerfect GOP-TB logic!
Gasman - "I know, that I know, that I know" may be better understood by removing the commas. 'I know that I know that I know'. It communicates confidence that 'God told me' and is available for the rank and file pew-sitter, as well as the 'anointed'. It's a handy-dandy way to justify thoughts and actions and avoid responsibility or accountability by shifting them to God.
ReplyDeleteWow! Michelle Bachmann did not even have the decency to stay for the entire service. She finished her speech, walked over to her entourage seated in the first row, and they all stood up and quickly headed for the side exit. That was incredibly inconsiderate but it just goes to show you how easily the fanatics can be manipulated.
ReplyDeleteBachmann narrated a creative story, her physical appearance and sex appeal became twisted into a strange metaphor relating to her knowledge of God. The message was simple...
Michelle Bachmann is HOT! She is 50 and HOT! HOT! HOT! She is married with a large family including 23 foster kids and she is HOT! HOT! HOT!
Hot for God and Jesus Christ! Of Course! Knowing God is HOT! Can I have an Amen!
Puke!
Oh and here's a shout out to my husband of 20 years. My hotness wasn't a factor at all when we first met. For awhile there were no romantic feelings between us at all, but not because he's a raging homosexual. Because he didn't know God. Once I introduced him to a vengeful God, who hates gays, things started to change! Of course we only had sex for the purposes of reproduction and our relationship was never intimate, but we are both Hot for God! And Hot for Brad Pitt and Hugh Jackman, too!! Ooops!
If you love, you need no descriptors. Either you do, or you don't.
ReplyDeleteSaying you're 'hot' for Jesus, is pretty insulting to your faith.
Either you have it or you don't.
If you *have* to prove it, then there is a problem.
I love my son. I don't need any other words to describe to anyone that my love is genuine.
If you need to prove your love for Jesus is genuine, then I ask, what are you trying to prove?
That others think your love is false?
Or ...
That you believe that you believe your brand of love is more genuine than others?
If you think it's a contest, then you think more of yourself and your standing than you do for your love of Jesus.
Either you do or you don't. There are no qualifiers.

ReplyDeleteLiberty Law school is a sham. Remember the young woman in the Bush administration who was a graduate of Liberty and was sacked for some seriously bad behavior? I wish I could remember her name ... In any event, the school seeks to become a "force" for Jesus in the political world.
This brought me back to George W. Bush's nomination of his White House Counsel, Harriet Miers to SCOTUS.
Remember that extraordinary brouhaha from within his own party on the fact that she was unqualified? She met the technical requirements, in that she was a lawyer - but never truly practiced law nor served as a judge.
The GOP piled on her, offended that she had the nerve to put her hat in.
Fast forward five years, FIVE years, and they are rallying behind a woman who was technically eligible (able-bodied, of age and born in America) but was woefully unqualified to serve as a heart-beat away from the Presidency?
Now this loon, Bachmann, who knows that she knows that she's hot for Jesus, wants us to figure she's safer from scrutiny on a credentials stand-point when she's a JesusU grad and no better a constitutional or tax law expert than Christine O'Donnell.
Sigh.
None of these women, including S.C. Governor Niki Haley, deserves or belong in public roles - Christian, private sector all they want, but damn this Pink Elephant revolution - there is nothing refreshing or exciting about the staid, tired old White Male Republican Guard brand of rule.
"I think of all the education that I've missed. But then again my homework was never quite like this!
ReplyDeleteGot it bad, got it bad, got it bad.
I'm hot for Jesus."
