you have a serious intellectual void.

Your low intelligence......while idiots like you act like you have a clue.

Get your shit together, Skeptic.

You've lost the argument before it even began. I've never attacked anyone personally here, but I've noticed some people are quick to personally attack anyone who says anything they disagree with. I'd be happy to get into a detailed discussion, but not with someone who results to cheap insults as a way to "prove" their point.

Forgive me if I don't engage in elementary school level shouting matches and name calling. It's not my style.

I wasn't very impressed by her in the 2012 election. In pretty much every interview I have seen of her she never directly answers the question but sticks to her talking points and just keeps on repeating herself. To give a few examples.

Michele Bachmann faces barrage of gay rights questions on Meet the Press Regarding gay marriage.

Bachmann Unhappy With Kirk Cameron Gay Questions From Piers Morgan

Also, here is a RON PAUL vs BACKMANN video regarding the constitution.

Ron Paul educates Michelle Bachmann on Constitutional Rights

To me, she is a popularist conservative who says vague ideas such as "freedom", "Constitution", "traditional values" but rarely goes into much depth.

Welcome to the world of politics. If that's how you grade a pol, then where were you when all we heard was Hope and Change, why didn't you ask what that actually meant?
And you judge Bachman on avoiding hit pieces by the media?

I was waiting to hear what it was you found so repulsive about Palin.

If Bachmann and Palin looked like Ugly Betty no one would give them the time of day.

BTW, I'm anti dem/lib, anti abortion, don't like the track the gay movement is on, OWS is made up of a bunch of derelicts, retired career military, think Obama should either resign or be impeached, Holder should be arested and put in jail, Pelosi and Reid should be committed to an insane asylum, Mitchell should consider retirement, Christis is a hypocrite, do not trust Muslim's period dot, and cannot figure out why the stock market is so strong if the economy is so bad - are we being duped, and vote Conservative.

The stock mkt is an illusion being completely propped up by the fed, but once Qe stops, that bubble will deflate, or rather explode and what the left claims is a recovery, will be instant depression.
The only reason people believe the economy is on a recovery, is because of the billions being pumped into the stock mkt via fiat money.
There is no recovery, and there is no real stock mkt anymore.

If you are referring to the Hannity forum, my avatar there was 'Daffy Duck.' I understand that Reagan did believe in God, but he was not an ultra-religious nutcase. I have no problem with religious people in general, but I do have issues with the crazy lady who believes she can "Pray the Gay away." That's not the only ridiculous thing she's said, but it's the one that probably got the most press.

Also, why do some of you assume if I'm atheist I have to be a Democrat? I'm not a Democrat. I consider myself closer to a Goldwater Republican than anything else (ie. fiscally conservative and socially libertarian.) Kind of hard to be a Democrat when I believe in Capitalism, low taxes, reduction of red tape, and personal freedoms such as the right to own arms (most Democrats today [the so-called Progressives] don't believe in any of that.)

Good riddance Bachmann. The Party is better off in the hands of more sane and rational individuals such as Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, etc.  Look, I even like some of the more hardcore Bible thumpers in the Party such as Jim DeMint. I may not agree with some of his more extreme ideas such as Christian prayers in school, but at least the man is incredibly smart and rational. We need people like that, and not people like Bachmann and Palin who made a living out of empty rhetoric, throwing meaningless red meat at the base, and absolutely nothing else.

Uh...yeah...right.  Sell that load somewhere else banni.  Everyone here, that used to be there, knew immediately when you coupled your old avatar with your same opinions it was you.  It would have even been better had you not been bragging about your posting here, in you own little insult club.

I have said many times that 'hope' and 'change' were just blank slates that people could write whatever they wanted on them. It didn't mean anything. I remember posting this clip of Noam Chomsky explaining it.

I think it has come to the point where unless you believe Obama is the anti-christ and a muslim American hating communist, you're his supporter.

QuoteAnd you judge Bachman on avoiding hit pieces by the media?

Hit pieces ? I didn't realize she was a soft little lamb and you could only ask her questions which suited her. Would you give a democrat that same line of thinking ? I doubt it.

Pretty much. The stock market is like anything other 'piece' of the economy. When the fed pumps money into the economy, it is creating bubbles through out it. Including the stock market.

You really don't see it, do you? The media tosses softballs at libs, while needling Conservatives on any given point.
That's the way it's been for decades, had the media done it's job with Hussein, the same way they went after Palin, we would have a very different Potus today.
Can you say double standard? If you had any critical thinking skills, you be comparing instead of falling for a leftist agenda.
By the way, you must have missed this post by accident.

OK, what I gave you is in the Congressional record, but as proof of what was written, here is a former KGB officer explaining how the USSR was infiltrating our values, media and Govt.
You can't make this stuff up, not to mention, did you notice that nearly all those warnings, have been fulfilled?
Seriously, take 10 minutes and listen, he is telling you exactly what is going on.

I agree. I would also argue that Fox News and other 'conservative' media stations do the same thing.

I haven't missed it, I just can't listen to it at the moment and therefor can't comment. ( No sound, but will listen and respond later today.)

of course you would, and percentage wise, you'd be wrong.

If you get a chance, watch the video Billy posted, I think you will be in complete agreement with her findings.
It's not a con or lib issue, it's how we've all been duped.

Is there any way to prove that ?

What makes you think Fox is Conservative? They are not, they have RINO opinion shows, but their news is pretty much middle of the road.
If it were up to me, I'd make them do actual investigative journalism, something we see little of today.
