Last night, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly discussed why she is “second to Sarah Palin in far-left angst,” setting off a conversation between the two about why Bachmann faces so much criticism from her colleagues and the press. Bachmann claimed she has “stalkers” at “a competing cable network,” presumably referring to MSNBC. (Note to Michele: O’Reilly is actually a stalker.) O’Reilly then offered his own explanation as to why Bachmann is criticized so much, contending that it’s because she’s so “good-looking”:
O’REILLY: Do you think — and this is an off-the-wall question. And I’m telling the audience that it’s just something that’s occurred to me. Both you and Sarah Palin are good-looking women. I mean, you’re attractive, young — relatively young — women who other women can identify with. You’re a mom, a wife. You had a private-sector job.
I think that’s it. I think that the success of Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann drive the far left crazy because you don’t fit — they don’t like what you believe in, but you can attract others to listen to you. I think that’s what’s going on.
Bachmann responded that she and Palin are pulling away votes from Democrats, “especially in a woman block — a middle America woman block.” Watch it:
This middle American woman thinks Sarah and Michelle are bat shit crazy, and not too bright. Whereever path they are trying to lead us on, I have no interest in following. I suspect there are millions more women who think as I do.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:45 amThat should be whatever up there, sorry.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:45 amBeings an ill-informed idiot has nothing to do with her looks….
October 8th, 2009 at 10:46 amI don’t care for her look, but there are those who make their decisions on whom to support based by organs other than their brain.
“That Bachmann/Palin is HOT! I’ll vote for her!”
Classic voting with the wrong part of your body!
October 8th, 2009 at 10:46 amWas this an in person interview, or was it a phone call so Billdo could masturbate during the interview?
October 8th, 2009 at 10:46 amBachmann responded that she and Palin are pulling away votes from Democrats, “especially in a woman block — a middle America woman block.”
Oh yeah? How’d that work for ya last November, Shelly?
October 8th, 2009 at 10:47 amBeing, not ‘beings’
I was so distracted by her looks I made a typo
October 8th, 2009 at 10:47 am/snark
Zimzone, that comment made me laugh and vomit at the same time.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:48 amOMG>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Bachmann responded that she and Palin are pulling away votes from Democrats, “especially in a woman block — a middle America woman block.”
If this id true>>>>>>>> i am hoping that all women will at lease tell this nut job that you all are not pulling away from being smart.
it would truly be a sad time in the US if women really felt these two were the top of the crop.

gop speaks again based on just how shallow they are.
color of skin and socially accepted appearance are the only things they think are important.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:51 amO’Reilly to Bachmann: You ‘drive the far-left to distraction’ because you’re ‘crazy.’
There, fixed it.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:51 amO’Reilly to Bachmann: You ‘drive the far-left crazy’ because you’re ‘good-looking….’
“… Wanna touch my loofah?” O’Lielly’s just looking to get laid….
Cheers,
October 8th, 2009 at 10:53 amSure she’s good looking – in a sort of spacy-zombie-brain drained/dead way.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:54 amBachmann claimed she has “stalkers” at “a competing cable network”
Actually, Bimbo Bachmann was caught on tape stalking back in the day when she was a fledgling little state representative. There was a gay rights demonstration on the Minnesota Capitol grounds and she was caught hiding behind a bush watching the rally.
I agree with those who aren’t all that impressed with her looks. Even with her mouth closed, Bimbo Shelley is below average. Then, when she opens her mouth, she is downright repulsive.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:54 amO’REILLY: Both you and Sarah Palin are good-looking women. I mean, you’re attractive, young — relatively young — women who other women can identify with, and maybe take showers with and romp around in underwear with, and maybe, you know, massage each other with baby oil, or maybe one of you accidentally walks in on the other whilst they are getting changed and maybe you can’t help but admire her private sector and you just happened to have a loofah with you and….”
(fwap,fwap,fwap)
October 8th, 2009 at 10:54 amBachmann is does not cause angst, Bellow, she causes comedic snarky remarks and furthermore wrist slicing isnt popular and women are not running to minniesewtah to join.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:55 amO’Reilly to Bachmann: You ‘drive the far-left crazy’ because you’re ‘good-looking.’
I read that headline and threw up in my mouth a little…
October 8th, 2009 at 10:56 amWhat planet are these people living on?
October 8th, 2009 at 10:56 am“second to Sarah Palin in far-left angst,”
O’Reilly needs to refer to the dictionary and learn the difference between “angst” and “amusement”. She has replaced GWB as our national village idiot.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:56 amLOL! You can’t make this sh*t up! I guess all us ‘Lefties’ have to be pug ugly or something, huh? I can’t help but laugh how ludicris this is! If anything, it points out how shallow Billo and his fellow Repugs are! The first thing that comes to my mind about a politicain is how SMART they are! Not how good looking. Christ.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:56 amI think the publicly demonstrated ire of the left is having an effect. There is an awful lot of lamentation from Faux these days about why the “left” dont like them. I’ve never heard them spend so much time on this issue. Actually I’ve rarely heard them talk about this at all, they have never cared before. I think the backlash to their propaganda is having an effect.
More than anything though remember that the mastermind to the whole misinformation campaign and the destructuion of true journalism is Rupert Murdoch, fear him, seriously, fear him.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:56 amUmmm, Bill? It has nothing to do with their looks — it’s that both Palin and Bachmann are bat$shit crazy (and proud of it)…
October 8th, 2009 at 10:56 amBimbo Bachmann is smug-tastic and smarm-tacular!
Good-looking? Not so much.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:58 amBachmann responded that she and Palin are pulling away votes from Democrats, “especially in a woman block — a middle America woman block.”
And the evidence for this, Michelle? You’ve never gotten a single vote anywhere outside your little district of crazy people. One Congressional district in Minnesota — did you pull a lot of Democratic voters in 2008? What? No?
Already clearly a mental case, Bachmann’s delusions are being fed by all the attention she gets in the press and on the PropagandaNetwork.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:58 amUgh!
October 8th, 2009 at 10:58 amI bet Bellow Really spends more time in front of a mirror than Palin and Bachmann together.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:59 amThere never ever used to be SO many bat sh_t crazy republicans in all the years I can remember! I don’t know what is driving them or creating them. Is this a result of our failed school systems for so many years? (I was a teacher for 32 years) Is there something in the water? Are they media driven?

Yeah, but that wouldn’t be the soccer moms (”women who other women can identify with”). That would be pimply-faced Cheetoh-eating Republicans in their mom’s basement, and fat conservatives that want to trade in their own wife for a newer one in the hallowed Republican [can you say "Gingrich"? "Limbaugh"?] tradition.

October 8th, 2009 at 10:59 amThis is creepy on a lot of levels. Remember that columnist who wrote that skeezy article about Palin’s televised debate? Eeww.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:02 amThat’s the way conservatives like ‘em.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:04 amralph@32, Yeah! You can be as dumb as a bag of hammers! But you sure are hot! That’s the Conservatives motto.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:07 amSorry, O’Reilly, it is not because Bachman is “a good-looking woman” as you think (and you obviously find her so, you sexist pig). It’s because she is a train wreck.
And I will stand on the corner and watch a good train wreck.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:08 amIt’s often occurred to me that if it wasn’t for her looks she wouldn’t be getting so much air time. Same with Palin.
The right aren’t much for respecting women for their intellect. In fact, I would go so far as to assert that your typical rightie is shallow and unenlightened.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:08 ampax says: There never ever used to be SO many bat sh_t crazy republicans in all the years I can remember! I don’t know what is driving them or creating them.
They are the products of Reagan and Gingrich who empowered the Religious Right as the key to the GOPs electoral success. Now the GOP is reduced to just the Fundies (McCain being the only exception I can think of at the moment, and he’s irrelevant because he doesn’t talk about God enough).
October 8th, 2009 at 11:09 am…you drive a lot of GENERAL people crazy because of your Extremist Insanity.

October 8th, 2009 at 11:11 amSo is Billo trying to hit on Bachmann?? He’s not even that stupid…although sometimes I wonder….

How friggin shallow.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:16 amFor example (and for all I know she’s a lovely woman who happens to be somewhat conservative so ran as a Republican), why don’t we see this Republican woman all over the airwaves?

I think this says more about Bill-o and the Republic Party than it does about the folks on the left. The Republic Party has gone from voting for a guy that they want to have a beer with to a prospective PILF and her batshit crazy sidekick in heels. Bill-o can construct his straw women and make sweet falafel love to them all he wants but IMHO I love Palin and Bachman…not because they are “beautiful” (choking back a little vomit) but because they are a couple of the loudest voices in their party. Voices that ensure Democratic votes if nothing else due to their consistent lack of logic, honesty or facts.
There is nothing sexy about neocons and lunatics in high heels….nothing

Bachmann and Palin have a magnetic pull similar to that of a bad traffic accident. There’s something about it that makes you look, even though you know what you see will appall you.
This “attention” should in no way be confused with popularity, let alone support. And the idea that either of these women is “pulling away votes from Democrats”, especially “middle America” women, is pure fantasy and delusion. As a bona fide member of the middle America women group, I can assure everyone we’re not that stupid or gullible — at least most of us aren’t.
Gracie Allen “ran” for POTUS in 1940 as a publicity stunt for the George Burns and Gracie Allen radio show (on the “Surprise Party” ticket). Her campaign got a lot of attention (as it was supposed to) and entertained many. But even though she got some actual votes, nobody really seriously believed her to be qualified to be President.
The difference here is that Gracie knew very well that her role was that of comedienne and entertainer — not serious politician. Sarah and Michelle are essentially playing the same role, but they have deluded themselves into thinking it’s something else.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:21 amTaxpayer, if you came over to the left, you could come out and join them.

“O’Reilly to Bachmann: You ‘drive the far-left crazy’ because you’re ‘good looking.’”
Bill O’Reilly discussed why she is “second to Sarah Palin in far-left angst,”
Get it now dumbass?
October 8th, 2009 at 11:31 amI guess to Billo, Bachman would be a great President. All she has to do is blind everybody with her good looks! I mean, if Georgie could do it….
October 8th, 2009 at 11:31 amBachmann (R-MN) and Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly are evil wingnut extremists who live in an insane world of lies and fake believe. Their soul sickness of mental, moral, religious, and racial bigotry is destroying our freedoms and democracy.

October 8th, 2009 at 11:33 amThe fact that an utterly ill-informed, lying, ignorant person peddles such outrageous crap shamelessly gets progressives angry with her, not her looks.

You and your stale brand are ugly. The last 2 elections have proven that. Get over it, you lost, and will continue to lose as long as people like Bachmann continue to put themselves at the front of the party. You people are just begging to remain insignificant.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:37 amThe first thing that comes to my mind about a politicain is how SMART they are!
That’s the difference between Dems and Rethugs. The Rethug political philosophy is: What’s in it for me? Never mind if it’s good for the country, just as long as it looks good. Mo money, mo money, mo money! Sex! Sex! Sex! Now, let’s expand those female Rethugs—Virginia Foxx, Phyllis Schlafly,crazy-eyes Michelle Malkin (crazy-eyes Bachamann’s soul sister), and mAnn Coulter.
My point is: I’d rather have female politicians of ordinary looks who have brains and care about their country and fellow citizens than hundreds of “attractive” bimbos who are stupid like Palin and/or bat-shit crazy like Bachmann and determined to dumb down or bastardize the public debate.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:38 amIs the right wing really hanging its hat on Palin and Bachman’s looks. Apologies ahead of time for anyone I may offend. I don’t want to be rude, but they’re not that hot. Bachman’s got what has to be the craziest eyes in the nation and that ridiculous square-jawed look of phony resolution and anger that Palin wears around is enough to make a Viagra addict lose his..uh, will to go on.

I’ll rake her through the mud, bring up things in her life and make her so miserable that she’ll be destroyed. And besides, she wouldn’t be able to afford the lawyers I can or endure it financially as long as I can. And nobody would believe her, it’d be her word against mine and who are they going to believe?

People, this is a kid. He uses this kind of construction all the time and as someone who has raised kids, I can tell you that if he’s not a kid, he’s an adult with a severe mental problem. Let’s not debate a kid or a person with severe mental problems unless he demonstrates that he can speak and debate like an adult, OK? Just a thought.

The men on the left are almost all gay. The women are either feminists or bull dykes.
TP knows. When he hits on the women, they tell him to FOAD, so they’re obviously dykes (which thought gives him an instant cream). And the men obviously have to be teh gay, because why else would all those women think that he looks like a half-brain homeless bum when held up against their sartorial splendour and good grooming?

October 8th, 2009 at 11:51 amTaxpayer, Rachel Maddow is really the only one I can remember on television (certainly opinion and news) who unabashedly has announced to her audience that she is a gay person. She doesn’t really need therapy for that because she knows who she is and she’s fine with it.
You, on the other hand, have a problem. It really bothers you that people are gay. Psychologists will tell you that if that really bothers you, you are probably grappling with internal gay tendencies. Don’t be angry. It’s no big deal.

October 8th, 2009 at 12:22 pmThe bottom line is that O’Reilly exposes something about himself with this observation. As anyone can see by the excerpts I’ve been posting from his novel, “Those Who Trespass,” O’Reilly has some serious issues with sex. We know he has sexually harassed women. We’ve even heard the disgusting tapes. We know he forced FOX to pay a woman tens of millions in hush money.
Why do conservatives still like to pretend that O’Reilly has anything to teach us about ethics or morals?

“You mean the “irrelevant” plurality of people who voted Democratic in 2008?”
And are wishing they hadn’t today? They got caught up in the moment and all of the promises that sounded good at the time.
And they hit themselves on the head so hard that Bachmann is making sense?
I don’t know, twacy, I would think we’d have seen a huge upturn in head injuries and nothing like that has been reported.
I do love your theory that laughing at someone is proof that I’m “pissed off”. It’s elegant in its absurdity. As is your completely unsubstantiated claim that Bachmann is “gaining in popularity.” You know this because…
October 8th, 2009 at 12:52 pmYou have all the power and you still can’t get anything done.
Okay- which is it armand?
Are we in the midst of an unprecedented Government takeover or are the Democrats incapable of getting anything done, armand?
You make EXACTLY as much sense as Michelle…
October 8th, 2009 at 12:54 pmYou have some statistical support for this claim of fact, do you?
I’ll be interested to see it.
Your subjective description of “rail against” is just as easily seen as “laugh at” from another — and I think more correct — perspective.
Moreover, your psychological analysis (”It’s a common practice of those who detest others.”)lacks depth and a sense of authority. Frankly, it sounds more like a tossed-off “common sense” judgment with little grounding in actual clinical or academic truth.
Your slapdash assessment of the O’Reilly-Olbermann dynamic fails to take into account the frequently observed habit of O’Reilly to refuse to acknowledge both mistakes and serious challenges to his credibility.
To conclude, I have to note that none of this has anything to say about the question I first posed:
““What evidence can you offer that “Bachmann doesn’t care too much what irrelevant people at MSNBC have to say”?””
But thanks for the effort.

I’m not intimidated nor impressed with your crap. Go whine to someone else. Whiner. Maybe you can post some of Eugenes insults. It’s all he knows how to do. Crybabies of the Left and a bunch of whiners.
Blubberman on MSNBC cried and whined for an hour last night. You all must have been embarrased by that loud mouth idiot of the Progressive left.
________
Good Lord, you’re funny.
You’ve done nothing BUT whine since you’ve showed up… that, and call names… Blubbermann?
Sooooooooo… we’ve established that you’re terrified of simple questions…
What’s next? Need some help in solving an embarrassing problem?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:30 pmTracy5: “People are finally waking up and letting their representatives know what they think and in “I didn’t vote for this crap!”.”
Where did you get that load of horse crap? Limbaugh? Obama was elected by the largest margin in 30 years. Obama’s numbers are on the rise. When the Dems pass health care reform in Congress, their numbers will shoot up as well. The only reason for mediocre numbers for Dems is that we haven’t passed any health care legislation. Once that passes, it’s over for you guys because everyone will eventually understand that you’ve been a bunch of liars.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:30 pmTRacist doesn’t see the difference between “growing” and “maintaining”.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:30 pmHa ha ha ha ha ah LOL
Ha ha ha ha ha ah LOL
Ha ha ha ha ha ah LOL
O’Reilly you’re such a card!
October 8th, 2009 at 1:30 pmNo Purplestate. I like you. I think you are a very good poster but turning the other cheek because of the juvenile quality of the attacks didnt work out too well for the left when we tried it the first couple of decades that Limbaugh and Coulter were excoriating us. It allowed us to be charcterized as weak. Not willing to fight for our principles and not having any. I mean take whatever road you think best for yourself but for me the days of ignoring blatant contemptuous attacks are OVER. I think its time for us to fight back. We can beat them in the debate halls and I think its time to show we can follow them into the gutter and beat them there too.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:31 pmsplinter factioneers riding to the defense of crazy shelly?
i’d say that’s weird, but it’s fairly predictable.
when only 2 or 3 lights are on, you’ll find some moths around each of them.
crazy shelly is really not too attractive, once you get past the hair, makeup and wardrobe. why are her eyes sinking back into her skull? is it because her reasoning sucks?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:33 pmbelaccifer lacca: “Okay.
Then what are you doing here?”
Exactly. The troll comes storming on to a liberal discussion board and announces he won’t answer any questions like he’s fricking Donald Rumsfeld or something. Some people are really full of themselves aren’t they?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:33 pmTracy___5 says:
“Moreover, your psychological analysis (”It’s a common practice of those who detest others.”)lacks depth and a sense of authority.”
But you are not an authority to make that determination. It’s only an opinion you know.
___________
And of course, by that simple measure (don’t worry… we’ll keep it simple for your and armand’s sake…) you’re not an authority either.
What point could you possibly think you’re making?
Pssst… better go over and give armand a hug… he seems to have been terribly frightened by a question he can’t answer…
October 8th, 2009 at 1:33 pmDid anyone notice that Bill O’Reilly’s left arm was under his desk while he was speaking to Bachmann? O’Reilly needs help for his addiction to sexual perversion.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:34 pm“O’Reilly to Bachmann: You ‘drive the far-left crazy’ because you’re ‘good looking.’”
Amazing.. A Loofah wingnut having psycho talk discussions with another wingnut from Planet Wingnuttia.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:36 pmGotta go, all…
And be nice to T5 & aramand when they finally come down out of that tree they climbed.
They’ve had a bad morning.
And what ever you do, DON’T ask armand any questions.
He’ll prolly just start blubbering again.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:37 pmActually, I misspoke; TRacist doesn’t know the difference between “growing” and “shrinking”.
See, TRacist made a big deal out of Rep. Bachmann’s “growing popularity” — mentioned it several times. Yet he never offered any data to support this claim of growth.
I think I know why.
See, in 2006, Rep. Bachmann won her House race by 50% to 42%.
Last November, she won by 46% to 44%.
That, to me, represents shrinking popularity. Among the people she considers “relevant”. Right, TRacist?
So how about it, TRacist? Got some data to refute the electoral results of the last two cycles?

I think we can beat them in debates, E.D., but not by being as juvenile as they have been. Being confident in our abilities and providing the facts when they offer nothing is what we should be doing.
Stooping to their level doesn’t do anything but clog the discussion with banter, and for some people who come here, that’s all they really want to do.
Let’s stick to discussing issues.
Now, personally, I think it’s natural that those who are considered as “beautiful” are targeted for their beliefs. O’Reilly may have a point here if he was talking about Carrie Prejean. But he’s talking about Michele Bachmann, a politician.
Politicians should be judged by their words and policies, not by their looks. Personally, I find Bachmann to be refined in looks, but gruesome in opinion.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:41 pmI wouldn’t F_ck Bachmann with Billdos nub.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:42 pmI got the “STFU” from your fellow whiner Eugene. You know, the little child who thinks he’s a big man. The child who only knows how to insult people. You must be a Eugene Groupie.
“Lead by example”, what a joke.
Go cry to someone who cares. Maybe Eugene.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:42 pmBill’O and Sarah

Do what you think best Purplestate. As will I. Again that tactic didnt work out too well the first couple of decades we tried it with Limbaugh and Coulter.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:48 pmThe cowardly trolls are hanging around here because they’re afraid to comment on the right wing nuts threatening to stage a coup. Cluck, cluck, cluck … cluck, cluck, cluck.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:48 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAHHHHHH
You KNOW you are stupid and you KNOW you are pathetic so you come in here slinging insults then spend the rest of your time snivelling like the putrid pathetic punk you are that we are mean to you. I DO love to laugh at morons like you.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:49 pmTracy, we know you voted for Sarah, but I have bad news. She is never going to have sex with you.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:49 pmBetter yet, why are you here?
To talk about the issues of the day, issues that are important to me, like Health Care, Education and the Environment… I seek out ‘trolls’ like yourself because I meet people with similar opinions in my actual life and am interested in hearing your arguments and refining my rebuttals.
I also read the opinions and rebuttals of fellow posters I agree with for tips and information.
Why are you here?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:50 pmTracy___5 says:
Good Lord… your rambling, twisted rebuttal is entertaining… doesn’t make the least bit of sense… but it sure is funny…
“Really??? You SAY! Please… continue… we’re all listening… no… really… ralphie… stop laughing… T5 is ’splainin’ sumpin IMPORTANT here…”
October 8th, 2009 at 1:51 pmDid she get re-elected in 2008 or not?
Were Democrats overwhelmingly elected in 2008 or not?
Democrats are the only nationally ‘relevant’ people then?
That’s your argument?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:51 pmTracy___5 says:
“Tracy… any evidence of this ‘growing popularity’ for Michelle?
Did she get re-elected in 2008 or not?
_____________
By a shrinking margin… by your logic, I see why claim that really is nine inches…
October 8th, 2009 at 1:52 pmSame crap from a child. You’re not very good at this Eugene are you?
Whiner.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:53 pmArmand says
I don’t answer to you whiners. You’re credibility is zero with me. Go whine to someone who cares to hear your crap.
Reply: And your “credibility is zero with me. Go whine to someone who cares to hear your crap.” Rest assured that doesn’t include anyone on this site other than, perhaps, a couple of others with your demonstrated mental (and linguistic) INcapacity.
No need to thank me, btw, for correcting your homophonic evidence of your marginal literacy. Hoping that you’re now aware of your … oh, never mind, of course you’re not. Stupid is as stupid does.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:54 pmYou mean… like dropping from 50% of the vote to 44% in one election cycle?
That kind of “losing popularity”?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:54 pmI think armand has a crush on Eugene.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:55 pmThe greatest talent of all right-wing extremists is their uncanny ability to read minds. Tracy here just read the minds of millions of people at one time, very impressive Tracy.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:55 pmSo… you don’t have any data backing up your claim… the President’s popularity has rebounded sharply in the last several weeks… and yet we’re still supposed to buy your opinion-masquerading-as-fact?
October 8th, 2009 at 1:56 pmIt’s funny… I never took TRacist for one of our resident Olbermann-obsessed trolls.
I’ll have to revise my troll scorecard.
October 8th, 2009 at 1:58 pmTracy, the only why to stop the hiccups is to hold your breath until the next election.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:00 pmYou spent 60 years as the minority obstructionist party. That is where you belong and that is where you are right now and for the forseable future.
Who you gonna run that can beat any democrat? You can pretend all you want but you are a coward who backs out of a fight that you start.
You are a known commodity. It is known as inept and unpopular.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:00 pmWhat an idiot you are. I corrected the typo myself some time ago.
Another whiner joins in. I guess you are trying to make points with Eugene and the other whiners here.
No I won’t thank you. There is no need to. You’re not very good at this either I see.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:03 pmRemember when Tracist used to masquerade as a moderate? Now everytime he posts, he reveals a little more of his wild white-wing extremism, racism, and just complete stupidity. Eugene is correct. He’s just a punk, like the rest of them.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:03 pm94th-96th(1975–1981) Richard Nolan DFL
97th(1981–1983) Vin Weber Republican
98th-102nd(1983–1993) Gerry Sikorski DFL
103rd(1993–1995) Rod Grams Republican
104th-107th(1995–2003) Bill Luther DFL
108th-109th(2003–2007) Mark Kennedy Republican
110th- (2007–) Michele Bachmann Republican
Seems then like R’s are a ‘hiccup’ in MN’s sixth district over the last 30 years…
22 of the last 30 years the DFL has represented that district, Tracy… strange.

Of course it is. To respond to the same old STUPID from you. I realized long ago how astonisingly stupid people like you are. All of you come in and say the same things over and over and over and over and OVER. I surmised that repitition was your native language and if I was going to communicate with such a substandard intellect as yours or say that of a fruitfly. Repitition was the key. You mean you didnt get that obvious point. Oh thats right. People as stupid as you dont get ANYTHING.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:08 pmHe always was. He picked several fights here and bragged about showing up but he chickened out in the end. NO surprise.
He got banned in that round which he lost oh so bad and had to get a new moniker with an addional underline….
soon all he will be is an underline.
t5 is a liar and a coward.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:09 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAAHHHHHH of course I am correct. Try to remember virtually everyone here, except of couse Tracy, is ten times smarter than you will EVER be, PUNK.

October 8th, 2009 at 1:27 pm
She won re-election in 2006 and 2008.
___________________________________________________________
If you’re going to try to spout facts, at least get them right.
She only won RE-election once — in 2008. She was elected for the first time in 2006.
It’s also worth pointing out that her margin of victory was considerably less in 2008 than it was in 2006 — kind of unusual for an incumbent Congressperson. And she hadn’t even really been exposed as batsh!t crazy until Barack Obama was elected, so it will be interesting to see what 2010 brings.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:10 pmso it will be interesting to see what 2010 brings.
What’s more… the DFL (that’s the Democrats in Minnesota, Tracy) have held that seat for 22 of the last 30 years… so the ‘hiccup’ is Michelle, not the other way around.

Tracy. Try to remember how stupid you are. Your delusions do not define reality. Just because Rush has you believing you fringe teabaggers are somebody doesnt make it true.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:12 pmArmand says
I corrected the typo myself some time ago.
Wow. I’m impressed with your progress. What’s next? Are you planning on learning how to think rationally as well? Today, even? Tell you what — I have about another fifteen minutes before I die of boredom, so don’t take too long, ok?
October 8th, 2009 at 2:13 pmTracy reminds me of the Black Knight in Monty Python’s Holy Grail. His Republican Party got their arms and legs copped off by the Democrats in the past two elections, and Tracy lying on the ground screaming, “Oh. Oh, I see. Running away, eh? You yellow bastards! Come back here and take what’s coming to you. I’ll bite your legs off!”
October 8th, 2009 at 2:14 pmYou are just another foolish person who doesn’t get irony.
read your posts here. If a child was whining like you are I would send them to thier room.
Your just a big crybaby who can’t hold your own in a discussion. You haven’t even tried. You have cried big bohner tears since you got here. waaa
October 8th, 2009 at 2:14 pmPoor ArmandWWWAAAAHHHHH. All you do is snivel punk. You came here and tried to be rude while making an argument and got punked badly. Now you gave up on the arguments and just try to heap contempt on us since you KNOW you are far too stupid to swim in deep water. You are sad, stupid and pathetic and you are ALWAYS going to be sad, stupid, and pathetic. It isnt our fault. I do love laughing at morons as stupid as you though. That projection of yours is deliciously ironic. WWWWWAAAAAAHHHHHHHH is half of your vocabulary
October 8th, 2009 at 2:15 pmt5 @ 207 utterly rediculous. Can you back up that lie?
October 8th, 2009 at 2:16 pmHow about those who are laughing at you? Because that would be everyone here, except armand, and he is too pathetic to laugh at.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:19 pmt5 @183 This is another lie that you repeat often. Prove it.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:21 pmI do have this little tit bit for you obvious need for education…
See, this is the problem… Republican’s like yourself often equate ‘money’ with ‘popularity’
See Rudy Boschwitz’s Senate race against Paul Wellstone in 1990 to see how wrong that equation is is… especially in Minnesota.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:22 pmIt’s amazing that you didn’t see right thru Olbermann’s twisted lie about O’Reilly banning people from his show for just mentioning his name. Why not?
Here’s why not…

There is nothing wrong with my thought process. No, I have no intentions of becoming a follower of the Progressive propaganda machine that you march in lockstep with.
I just can’t seem to live by their (your) half truths and myopic views. There is nothing that you blinded people can do that can’t be undone by rational thinking Americans. We are growing in number and your ilk are dwindling in number.
People don’t like what you stand for. They think you are a joke.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:25 pmPeople don’t like what you stand for. They think you are a joke
Okay, armand… see you in 2010!
October 8th, 2009 at 2:27 pmArmandWWWWAAAAHHHHHHHH. You ignorant punk. You are right there is nothing wrong with your thought process. That is because you dont HAVE a thought process. You are FAR too stupid to think. You will ALWAYS be far too stupid for higher brain function fool. Just face it. You were born a moron and you are going to die a moron and you are going to BE a moron every day in between.
Funny the people who dont like what we stand for gave the guys who stand for what YOU want EPIC buttkickings the last two elections. Do you even realize how incredibly stupid you are?
October 8th, 2009 at 2:28 pmYes in 2010 there will be a changing of the guard or it will be very close.
Oh boy! I can’t wait to hear your explanation of this one on November 3, 2010…
October 8th, 2009 at 2:32 pmTracy Dreams again. You teabagger cretins are in the fringe minority. Your delusions of adequacy notwithstanding
October 8th, 2009 at 2:33 pmEugene, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah. Sorry little boy but you’re a joke. You’re not very good at this are you?
Your posts lack imagination and your crying is pathetic.
Whiner. Take the tissue or call your Mommy.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:34 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAAHHHHHHHH
snivel all you want PUNK. You are stupid. You are ignorant, you are a shameless sniveller. WWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHH is NOT a cogent point and its all you ever have. Face it you are pathetic. It is so much fun to laugh at morons like you
October 8th, 2009 at 2:36 pmSometimes I call Billy up and say “Al Franken” and hang up. It knocks about a month off his life.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:37 pmAgain you make my point.
Boo, Hoo.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:39 pmhistorically mid term elections the party in power loses seats. Then again no minority party in recent times has been as unpopular as the GOP is. However if you think for a second you are going to take back the house or Senate you are delusional
October 8th, 2009 at 2:39 pmStrange indeed even with Bush’s unpopularity that district voted Bachmann twice.
By a shrinking margin… and never even close to the margin her predecessor won by either time…
And yet, you see ‘growing’ popularity… interesting.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:39 pmAnyone surprised that Crazy Shelly’s drop of six points at the polls from 2006 to 2008 — from 50% to 44% — is interpreted by Tracist as “growing popularity”?
October 8th, 2009 at 2:40 pmThe only point you have EVER had is on top of your head ArmandWWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH. You are too stupid to make points when you tried we punked you so bad it was embarassing like picking on the mentally challenged shortbus moron you are. Such it up moron. This is your life. Stupid and pathetic is all you will ever have. Keep on insulting us then snivelling like the sad punk you are that we are picking on you though its hilarious
October 8th, 2009 at 2:41 pmAre you kidding? Come 2010 I gurantee the Dems will lose seats.
You need 41 seats in the house and 11 in the Senate to take over. I guarantee it ain’t gonna happen.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:41 pmWell Ralph it really does take an extraordinary comittment to ideological blindness
October 8th, 2009 at 2:43 pmSince I informed Tracy that Sarah would never have sex with him, it seems his obsession has shifted to Shelly.
Who knows? Tracy might have a shot with Bachman. She’s crazy enough.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:43 pmIf John Binkowski, an independent, wasn’t in the mix it would have a been an even larger margin of victory.
If the Republicans had run a different Republican it would have been a larger margin of victory…
October 8th, 2009 at 2:45 pmYeah. And it’s now October. The tantrum thrown by teabaggers at town halls has spent itself and the grownups are back at work.
Evidence? Sure.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:46 pmEverything changes eventually.
So your ‘hiccup’ argument is bullshit?
It’s your argument, tracy.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:46 pmAnd regardless of a third party if Bachman were GAINING in popularity the evidence would be a higher NOT a shriking percentage voting for HER.

October 8th, 2009 at 2:52 pmBoo, Hoo. Whiner. Stop your crying it’s sickening and pathetic.
All your posts are the same crap. What a baby you are.
You never insult anyone here right? You are the insult, an insult to thinking people. Keep it up little boy. Your nonsense is what’s turning Americans against the Democrats in this country.
Boo Hoo, little boy, call your Mommy.
Americans don’t like the Progressive message. You are turning them off with all the “We hate Republicans” “it’s all Bush’s fault” “they are the devil”, crap.
You don’t have the people behind you. There won’t be a George Bush to run against in 2010 or 2012. Well maybe you think you can pull that off again, I hope you try it.
You’re a bunch ow whiners. People don’t want whiners, they want Jobs.
Crybaby.
October 8th, 2009 at 2:52 pmSee Tracy. You really are stupid. You cant read minds MORON. Who said Marx was my hero? Oh thats right you just pull stuff like that out of your ASS and pretend it makes sense because you are too stupid to make ACTUAL points. You can show yourself out MORON
October 8th, 2009 at 2:52 pm“Say baby, put down that pipe and get my pipe up.”

October 8th, 2009 at 3:00 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
My GOD you are stupid. Your projections is so very precious. Like the retarded punk you are you snivel about MY insults when most of your posts are all insults. Its WWWWWWAAAAAQHHHHHHHh from you in every post. WWWWWAAAAHHHHHH only Armand gets to insult people. If anyone insults HIM its just SOOOO mean. What a worthless punk you are. Do you even GET how pathetic you are? It isnt my FAULT you are stupid. It isnt my fault that you get punked every time you come here. You are stupid. Get used to it. There is no other possible outcome. Its what happens when morons like YOU try to play in the big leagues. Keep crying though. I love to laugh at punks like you. Keep insulting us then whining about our insults. Its the funniest thing since Richard Pryor. Everyone can see what a coward you are. You are TRYING to give me this emotional blackmail so that I will stop insulting you and you can be the ONLY one doing the insults. That wont happen so you can give it up. You wont wear me down either. Keep coming at me I will continue to return serve. You are too stupid to win this. It is obvious to anyone that can read that you dont really care about the insults. YOU do insults too. What bothers you is I am better at them than you. So sack up PUNK. Either bring something worth talking about or get used to being punked BOTH on any points you make AND the insults. It is your sad fate
October 8th, 2009 at 3:00 pmArmband certainly has some compelling arguments to offer, doesn’t he?
“You’re a bunch of whiners.”
Well crafted, nicely played.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:00 pmArmandWWWAAAAAHHHHHHH
YOU are an ignorant punkass troll and a worthless pile of garbage. I am better at this than you will ever be and have an IQ that puts your pathetic little pea brain in the toilet. You will never see it though because you are just flat too stupid to bring enough substance for me to squash you with logic and rhetoric. You are so stupid that logic would be as far beyond you as Sumerian Cunieform is beyond a cockroach. Your closest relative
October 8th, 2009 at 3:04 pmAgain, irrelevant.
Okay… so the thrust of your argument seems to be, ’see you in 2010, everything else is irrelevant.’
I got it, Tracy… I’ll see you then. Can you stop posting all your irrelevance, then?
October 8th, 2009 at 3:07 pmTypical weak GOP inanity. For years it was win an election and we will talk. Now we THRASH them two in a row and its. Wait till the next election that I am fantasizing we will win
October 8th, 2009 at 3:09 pmTracy:
Armand:
Does Ron Paul pay Eric Odom and Mark Koldys to send you here to spam threads or do they do it pro bono because of their devotion to Mr Paul.
Didn’t Ms Bachmann appear with Ron Paul at a student town hall discussion at the University of Minnesota. When did crazy Shelley start drinking the Ron Paul Kool Aid?
October 8th, 2009 at 3:10 pmDon’t anyone dare post anything about Eugene’s garbage and insults.
He has a following of Groupies here who hang on his every word, umm insults.
He dares to call others “pathetic”. He’s just a child throwing tantrums.
BOO Hoo Eugene.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:11 pm378 posts because of Crazy Shelly – I’m even afraid to read these posts. Way, way too much crazy troll…
No I can’t say it – just use your imagination.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:13 pmCowboy Kathleen Harris…Andrea, you’ve knocked me out on this thread.
Tracist, you’ve been pwnd.
armand, what can I say? If you want to run with the big dogs in the tall grass, prepare to be pissed on at every stop.
Did I mention that Billdo is a pervert?
October 8th, 2009 at 3:14 pmPoor ArmandWWWWAAAAHHHHHHHH do you snivel this pathetically EVERY time you get punked? That is sad because as stupid as you are getting punked is all you have to look forward to. On what planet do you think it makes sense for you to insult us then spend twenty posts snivelling so much it would embarass any three year old girl that you get insulted back?

Eh, Armand is like a skipping record. He obviously lost his sheet of talking points issued to him from wingnut headquarters, so he’s pretty much forced to bleat “whiners! whiners! whiners!” helplessly until somebody helps him out with some new material.
Sad and comical at the same time.

October 8th, 2009 at 3:16 pmDon’t be afraid, Rich H. There’s nothing remarkable in the troll performance here. In fact, they’ve been pretty mediocre today.
Well, Tracist did try to claim that Crazy Shelly dropping from 50% of the vote in her district in ‘06 to 44% in ‘08 was evidence of “growing popularity” but other than that, it’s just been the typical shit-at-the-wall type of trollishness.

All you are doing is snivelling over and over and over that I am treating You the way YOU treat us. You are pathetic. I know more about politics than you ever will. You are just too stupid to bring out anything I know. You want to insult me then snivel that I insult you. I dont know what you think that shows but it isnt anything I am running from. I will eventually get bored but you will NEVER scare me away. You are a moron. Everyone who can read KNOWS you are a moron. You suck at this. When you tried reason you got punked so you try insults and you got punked again. You are stupid and no matter WHAT you try you will get punked. I have begged, cajoled, dared and even tried to shame you into bringing some substance you havent even TRIED. You began your posting with insults then switched directly to snivelling that I insult you back. Who do you think you are impressing. Call me out all you want. I can take you apart in any venue you want. I dont even engage my mind for this juvenile endeavor. Slapping the stupid out of you is as easy as making ice cubes. What a stupid punk you are
October 8th, 2009 at 3:26 pmWhen Bachmann’s campaign funds took a huge turn in 2008 from comming mostly outside Minnesota to flowing in from people inside the state speaks volumes to her increased popularity with the voters.
Did you miss the ENTIRE point… Boschwitz had TONS more money… most of it from in-state… he LOST. Big. Both times.
Speaks volumes about the fallacy of equating ‘fundraising’ to ‘popularity’ especially in Minnesota which is famous for being unpredictable in their voting habits.

October 8th, 2009 at 3:29 pmAh NO Tracy. It shows she is getting more money from Minnesota. A larger percentage of VOTES would show she is getting more popular. She didnt get them. This is actually pretty simple
October 8th, 2009 at 3:29 pmOf COURSE ArmandWWWWWWAAAAHHHHHHH. Why would I deign to bring originality to your same old WWWWWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH?
October 8th, 2009 at 3:31 pmTracy dusts off his crystal ball to back up his fantasies. Also a measure of HER popularity would be her getting the votes OVER a third party. NOT getting them cannot POSSIBLY be considered evidence of growing popularity to anyone sane
October 8th, 2009 at 3:34 pmTwacie:
A majority of votes cast in the 2008 election were not for Ms Bachmann. Why do you paulbots have such a difficult time with critical thinking skills?
Are you OK with Ron Paul’s ties to racists and the John Birch Society?

There is a decent chance the Dems will lose seats. That is the norm in mid terms. That really doesnt make any startling point. The GOP is the least popular minority party in modern history. THAT is the reality.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:43 pmProbably not but the Dems will lose seats one way or another.
Wait… didn’t you just tell me that the Democrats were gonna lose the leadership?
I’ve never had crow, but if I ever do I’ll be sure to hit you up for some recipes! Thanks!
October 8th, 2009 at 3:43 pmThe typical strange “logic” from Tracy.
Today he has insisted that people in the majority are irrelevant, and that fewer votes indicate an increase in popularity.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:45 pmCranky Armand WWWWAAAAAHHHHHHH? Are you kidding? I am laughing uproariously. Your stupidity is endlessly amusing. You are just flat too stupid to ever find out what I CAN do. The regular posters here see mostly this from me but they have also seen that I CAN bring it when logic and facts are called for. They have also seen your epic FAIL when you tried. You got punked that is why you came in today with the AGENDA of picking a fight with me. You are stupid, I am sure you KNEW you would get punked again, its your sad fate. You didnt care. You are obssessed. You cant help but give us material to punk you again and again. You are so stupid you dont even get how sad and pathetic you are.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:47 pmTracy___5 says:
It was a three way race in 2008 and she still won. Did you miss that part?
I really don’t like her chances in the next election cycle, though. A lot of the controversy surrounding her comments have been attributed to the change in the executive branch, and I doubts she’d be saying all of this if a Republican was in power.
In other words, I have a feeling that Obama’s election will indirectly affect her own re-election.

October 8th, 2009 at 3:57 pmI can’t speak for the “far-left”, whom I’ve never met, but I despise Crazy Shelly because her presence in the U.S. House is an affront to sanity. Even were I not from Minnesota she’s an embarrassment to sensibility.
I might also add that she’s a crook and a pathological liar.
October 8th, 2009 at 3:58 pmThose people who vote are the ones who should get the say as to who is elected…not the one who don’t.
Right.
So we’re back to ’see you in 2010.’
I’ll happily wait for those results and the results in 2012, Tracy… I don’t think you will be as happy…

Now do you understand?
Even when you talk slooooowwwww you make no sense. All an increase in money means is . . . an increase in money. It doesn’t even demonstrate an increase in donors, which might be connected to an increase in popularity, or it might be connected to a response to a threat from donations to Bachmann’s opponent. In any case, you’re a long way from proving there has been an increase in popularity, even in her district.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:06 pmFortunately, her most likely Democratic opponent is already raking in more money than Shelly and, thanks to her bomb throwing and that pesky little issue of blocking Franken from the Senate, the national dollars might just offset her evangelical donors.

By that logic the Tea Parties are irrelevant. As are you.

Well, the stupid troll got one right. Her federal support is drying up and shrinks every time she appears on national T.V. Though I fail to see how that translates into more support here in Minnesota.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:17 pmThen, of course, there’s the pending issue about whether she accepted contributions from a Ponzi scheme perpetrator and what became of those funds when she allegedly rejected them. It appears that she just transferred them to a “charity” that also contributes to her coffers. The whole situation stinks.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:20 pmOK Tracy ya got me. I misread your post. That was my mistake. Debs isnt my hero either. I dont DO the cult of personality. That is more a rightwing thing. He was a great orator and a union leader. My usual nick was already taken. You going right to the hero bit shows just how stupid you are. Though my reading skills obviously deserve the criticism. For me I take this quote by Edward Wallis Hotch pretty seriously
There is so much good in the worst of us
And so much bad in the best of us
That it hardly behooves any of us
To talk about the rest of us
People arent just one thing. If you ever get the hang of that higher brain function thing perhaps you will have an epiphany about this
October 8th, 2009 at 4:20 pmHe lost because he said some stupid things at the end of the campaign especially the one where he said he was a “better Jew” than Wellstone.
Exactly.
That’s why Michelle’s stupid comments are anything but ‘irrelevant.’
Thank you.

You are the biggest sniveller on this site calling us whiners. You insult me in every post then snivel about being insulted and then you talk about projection? HA. You really dont get the irony thing do you? You are stupid. You are a punk. You are getting punked AGAIN. YOU get over it. Be sure to post another WWWWWWWWAAAHHHHHHHHHH since its all you’ve got. I am enjoying laughing at your abject stupidity
October 8th, 2009 at 4:23 pmSo your numbers are from August, and mine are from October, and yet you discount mine because “Obama approval ratings are just now beginning to rise…within the last couple of weeks”.
Which was almost exactly what i said in the first place, a comment with which you took strange exception:
Do you have problems with the credibility of this poll? Its methodology, perhaps? Why do you insist on “Likely Voters”? Are they the only constituents who are “relevant”, or is Obama the president of ALL Americans whether they vote or not?
Basically, it looks to me like the only halfway legitimate quibble you have with my statement is my use of the word “sharply”. You can claim that six points in two weeks is not “sharply” rising, but all that amounts to is a subjective difference of opinion.
If you have some legitimate reason for dismissing the methodology of the AP poll, let’s have it.
Perhaps you dislike it because Rasmussen (a notoriously right-leaning pollster) recently hit on the idea of polling only LVs (and generally oversampling Republicans) and became the only pollster to find an approval below 50% for the President? And indeed, while all other prominent pollsters show the balance of approval/disapproval at between +8 and +17, Rasmussen has it at -3 and has for weeks.
Given that the President will not run for reelection for three more years, the insistence on LVs seems a bit of a gimmick intended to produce a desired result.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:24 pmI don’t like watching ‘TARDS having JIHAD sex but that’s what we have here.
Yuck!
October 8th, 2009 at 4:25 pmI didn’t “conveniently dismiss” it. I dismissed it because increased fundraising can just as easily be seen as evidence of increased desperation among a hard-core group of supporters, who are perfectly capable of contributing more per individual this cycle than they did last cycle. It can also mean more funds raised from corporate donors, which is no reflection at all on the attitude of individuals.
I find electoral results and their trends far more convincing measures of popularity than fundraising.

But Ralph you conveniently dismissed that fact that here fund raising from within her own state versus outside, has grown quit a bit since 2008.
I didn’t “conveniently dismiss” it.

It can also mean more funds raised from corporate donors, which is no reflection at all on the attitude of individuals.
As I noted above: increased funds does not equate in any way to “increased popularity.” It just means “increased funds.” Ask Michael Huffington.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:42 pmArmand
I disagree. I think if we get a healthcare bill that is honest and wanted by the progressives in Congress it will help Dems. People in the US arent stupid. They also are compassionate. They WANT universal healthcare. They WANT to do something about the tens of thousands of Americans per year who DIE from lack of access to healthcare.
Yeah. We DO healthcare and the GOP undoes it taking us back to being at the mercy of insurance companies that raise premiums when they lose money in the stock market, then deny payment with their recission tricks it will be a disaster for the GOP. The cons have always hated SS and Medicare and I dont see them being ‘undone’.
Corporations leave the country because they can better exploit the environment and workers not because they are overtaxed. You give us the brainwashed talking points of the right but no real substance here. Bush’s cut taxes for the rich economics didnt help our economy one bit. We went off a cliff. The American people arent stupid. They arent going to buy well it was a disaster last time lets do it again.
Stay STUPID. We KNOW its all you have.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:44 pmarmand,

October 8th, 2009 at 4:45 pmthe Dems will maintain or increase their majority in 2010? How much do you like crow?
Democrats will still be in the majority. Guarantee it. That’s what ‘maintaining’ a majority means…
But I guess you can put this one in your imaginary ‘win’ column, too… what’s it gonna hurt?

I also feel no obligation to TAKE an ongoing beating without returning serve. That doesnt make me a hypocrite. I am pretty sure you are far too stupid to get this pretty simple but nuanced point
October 8th, 2009 at 4:48 pmEugene,
We just had one of our vendors show up – a nice enough person but a right winger who is TOTALLY misinfromed. He doesn’t want healthcare reform because he’ll be taxed 10% on his total income which would be about ten times what he makes now.
We kept talking and he doesn’t like Obama’s war in Afghanistan. Forgeting that Bush put us there – and I guess he was o.k. with how Bush was handling it.
He didn’t like Obama’s bailout because Obama didn’t let anyone read what was in the TARP, just that he scared everyone into signing it before they had a chance to look at it. He didn’t even know that this first scare mongering bailout was under Bush.
Just a FOX watcher I guess.
p.s. armand has a crush on you.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:49 pmwhoops, makes = pays.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:51 pmMichelle, please keep up the stellar campaign work and messaging. It is surely a winner! Whatever you do do NOT attempt to sound intelligent, expound reasonable solutions to our problems, and whatever you do, do NOT stop hating.
October 8th, 2009 at 4:52 pmRich I think you are right. Unfortunatly for him. Long walks in the moonlight are not in our future
October 8th, 2009 at 4:53 pmObama a one termer like Carter was.
Talk to Michelle about that one… she worked on Carter’s campaign… didn’t you know?
October 8th, 2009 at 4:53 pmTracy. As a prophet YOU SUCK. Dont give up your day job. Miss Chloe isnt worried about you
October 8th, 2009 at 4:54 pmIt did for Bachmann in 2008.
And she did it in the most ‘Conservative-friendly’ district in ALL of MN… and she still lost ground.
Get it?
P.S. Pawlenty was up by 20 points in the 6th in 2008… McCain was up by 8… Bachman? 3… Get it?
October 8th, 2009 at 4:56 pmTracy’s theories about Bachmann are interesting (and silly) and not really supported by facts.
Here’s a very useful website which includes information about contributions. It’s true that Bachmann currently has an advantage in contributions (although not so much more cash in hand), but the “out of state” story is bogus. Check out the chart. More of Bachmann’s money is coming from out of state than her opponent’s. Also check the chart on who is making those contributions. 20% of her contributions are from PACs. 99% of her opponent’s contributions are from individuals.
Popularity?
October 8th, 2009 at 5:06 pmI would say that, on the whole, Tracy’s arguments have been proven ‘irrelevant.’
October 8th, 2009 at 5:07 pmOctober 8th, 2009 at 5:11 pm
You say this, armand…
Yet this new plan of yours leaves 25 million uninsured. Great move on your part.
and then this?
Facts Eugene. Back it up or STFU. I have seen you spout this garbage here before
Back it up indeed, armand…
October 8th, 2009 at 5:14 pmO’Reilly said after he cut off the caller that he would not tolerate callers saying obscene things. For any idiot to equate “obscene” with using Olbermann’s name is just plain stupid. I hope you aren’t one of them.
I quote:
“When you call us, ladies and gentleman, just so you know, we do have your phone number, and if you say anything untoward, obscene, or anything like that, Fox security will then contact your local authorities, and you will be held accountable. Fair?”
Is a sin of omission also a lie, Tracy?
October 8th, 2009 at 5:17 pmNot a crush, just a dislike for hypocrites and whiners.
Eugene is a crybaby and a whiner, oh ya, a hypocrite also.

October 8th, 2009 at 5:24 pmThe CBO weighed those details, and a number of additional propoals, and released its official scoring on Wednesday. The non-partisan office predicted Baucus’ bill will cover 29 million non-elderly Americans over the next 10 years, leaving about 25 million still uninsured by 2019 — about one-third of which, CBO added, would be illegal immigrants. About 25 million Americans would choose to purchase insurance through the healthcare exchange, they said.

October 8th, 2009 at 5:28 pmI see that Eugene doesn’t back up his crap. I’m not surprised.
Eugene, back it up or STFU.
October 8th, 2009 at 5:31 pmI’m surprised that you didn’t know this. No I’m not.
Right. The SENATE FINANCE COMMITTEE version has those numbers… you know, the one that has all those ‘compromises’ that the Republican’s demanded?
that is hardly the ‘new plan’ and hardly the final version of the bill.
I’m surprised you didn’t know this. Wait, no I’m not.
October 8th, 2009 at 5:31 pmYou need to listen and put the evidence together.
I’ve listened… you hear what you WANT to hear. Like a child.
October 8th, 2009 at 5:32 pmI don’t consider those who don’t vote relevant to the political process, not should they have anything to say about what laws are passed or policies implimented.

Why can’t you accept that an African American is now the President of the United States, the Republicans were soundly defeated and move on?
Why are you so bitter?
October 8th, 2009 at 5:49 pmThere is no bill pal. They asked the CBO to rate a concept and some notes. The Senate will vote on a NON BILL next Tuesday. You Democrats suck and it will be your downfall.
Ahh, I see you listen to Rush… me too.
You’re right. There is no bill… yet. Here’s the problem for you guys.
60 votes needed for cloture in the SENATE. 51 votes needed to pass legislation in the Senate.
The floor of the Senate is friendlier to the ‘public option’ than the Finance Committee… the House is friendlier than the floor of the Senate… Obama WILL sign it.
We don’t need you. Thank you.
October 8th, 2009 at 6:04 pmNor did I. I said they had rebounded sharply. I did say “several”, but I think the “sharply” carried the weight of the intent. You did, too, when you took issue with my use of the term.
Interesting notion of governmental responsibility you have there. I guess it’s not uncommon for right-wingers to feel beholden only to those hwo voted for them. We’ve seen that attitude for years.
So your argument against Rasmussen having a rightward bias is that they didn’t totally fly in the face of the data showing Clinton’s strong consistent popularity with Americans?
They do have to maintain some semblance of credibility, you know, unlike you.
Evidence? I don’t have anything that shows at a glance the trend of the various poillsters, but if you follow that sort of thing, it’s clear that Rasmussen’s numbers are almost always the highest for Republicans and lowest for Democrats among snapshot polls. The link I gave you earlier is one example.
Not only is Ras the only pollster who has Obama at a negative approval/disapproval, it’s also the only one that has Republicans favored in the generic Congressional ballot. This bias is not always pronounced, and as elections near their results tend to trend closer to other pollsters. Whether this is an attempt to maintain credibility or simply the result of greater clarity among the electorate I can’t say. But it’s pretty clear that when Rasmussen is an outlier among polls, it almost always favors the Republican side.
Here’s an interesting take from Pollster.com.
October 8th, 2009 at 6:04 pm“Why would O’Reilly equate the use of “Olbermann” as an obscene thing to say? Do you really believe that crap?
He didn’t… he considered it ‘untoward’ which is why he said ‘untoward’ first… do you read your crap, Tracy? Or just fling it?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:06 pmI’m not bitter. Are you a racist? I’m not spamming anyone.
How about you? Why are you spamming?

October 8th, 2009 at 6:06 pmSo, if you’re listening, Mike, we have your phone number, and we’re going to turn it over to Fox security, and you’ll be getting a little visit.
Even if there were ‘obscenity’ in the call, Tracy (there isn’t) do you think that threatening people is warranted? Or even legal?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:12 pmThen why do you keep whining about the Republicans? It’s all I hear from the Left. Do it!! Pass a non existent bill without letting the people of the United States read it first. Push the people around. I want you to do this. Cut the American People out of the process.
I have no illusions that people like you will do just that.
October 8th, 2009 at 6:16 pmI’m counting on you.
So say you.
You do know that fundraising records indicate not only where the money comes from, but also how many donors, right?
So does it “signal” more donors, or were there actually more donors?
Because with what you’ve offered so far, it’s completely reasonable to assume that the same donors are giving more money. They’re buying more guns and ammunition, after all. Why wouldn’t they also contribute more to the deranged congresspeople who tell them what they want to hear?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:19 pmarmand says:
What the hell do you think is happening in Congress?
Do you pay attention at all?
Pass a non existent bill without letting the people of the United States read it first.
Read it! Here’s the link to all the DRAFTS, when we get closer to a final, read it!

Gawd, will you ever stop whining?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:21 pmYou’ll never start winning unless you do…
There are summaries of each bill under consideration available online. I took the opportunity to scan them all. Why can’t the stupid trolls, and GOoPers, do the same?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:22 pmralph the wonder llama says:
Tracy___5 says:
If more money had been comming more in from outside the state and not from within then that might make sense. When you get more money from within your own district that signals more doners.
So say you.
You do know that fundraising records indicate not only where the money comes from, but also how many donors, right?
Did either one of you look at the donation statistics I posted a link to?
Ralph, you’re still letting Tracy get away with his assertions about out-of-state donations v local. And Tracy is, of course, completely ignoring the data and applying his non-logic about money=popularity.
October 8th, 2009 at 6:23 pmP.S. armand… why do you leave the CBO’s conclusion that the Finance draft REDUCES the budget deficit out of your argument?
Or that they estimate that a third of those who would remain uninsured are those ‘illegals’ that you were so sure were getting a free ride?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:25 pmDoesn’t it even strike the trolls that it’s odd for Crazy Shelly to be so adamantly against “a nonexistent bill that no one has read”? Is she referring to some secret bill that the Dems are keeping under wraps?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:25 pmI stand chastized, gum. I did not look at the link you posted. I’ve been going back and forth between work and smacking down TRacist. Sorry for the neglect.
October 8th, 2009 at 6:28 pmNeed help reading it, armand?
Don’t worry… we’ll get some money back into adult basic education, too.
Michelle needs help, too.
October 8th, 2009 at 6:33 pmI pay close attention, thank you. So when has a “DRAFT” become a qualified “BILL” to be voted on in the Senate???? Reid is planning on voting on this “DRAFT” in the Senate on Tuesday. The CBO has to review the final “BILL” not a “DRAFT” of a “BILL”. Soooo the CBO needs to do a review again according to the Senate rules.
I’m sorry but I don’t see where anything but a qualified “BILL” can be voted on in the Senate.
Is passing a “DRAFT” of a “BILL” even legal or binding????? Now that’s something to consider.
I wonder if you are paying attention. It seems that your dogma and rhetoric has clouded your mind.
OH ya, I’m not the whiner here, you seem to do that all on your own. You did whine about the Republicans didn’t you?
October 8th, 2009 at 6:46 pmI’m sorry but I don’t see where anything but a qualified “BILL” can be voted on in the Senate.

Wow. There’s so much crazy in that comment, I don’t know where to begin…

October 8th, 2009 at 7:02 pmSo when has a “DRAFT” become a qualified “BILL” to be voted on in the Senate????
P.S. every law that has been passed by our Congress started as a ‘Draft’
So the answer to your question is since June 1, 1789…

Does that help?
October 8th, 2009 at 7:05 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAHHHHHHHH I dont live on this site you ignorant pile of dogshit.
First your usual projection your entire post was NOTHING but party line rightwing talking points but I have to back up what I say even though this is WELL KNOWN? YOU provided not a shred of backup for ANY of your ignorant claims. My GOD if you didnt know that tens of thousands per year die from lack of access to healthcare then you are just flat too stupid to be in the conversation. The Harvard study of 2001 put the number at 18,000
http://www.reuters.com/article/healthNews/idUSTRE58G6W520090917
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Nearly 45,000 people die in the United States each year — one every 12 minutes — in large part because they lack health insurance and can not get good care, Harvard Medical School researchers found in an analysis released on Thursday.
My GOD if you didnt know this you are too stupid to breathe.
http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/04/06/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry4923731.shtml
A majority of Americans would pay higher taxes if it meant health insurance for everyone, according to a new CBS News/New York Times poll – though many worry that the nation’s economy will suffer if the government were to offer universal health care.
The poll also finds that health care is a major domestic concern for Americans, second only to the economy.
Fifty-seven percent of those polled say they are willing to pay higher taxes in order to provide all Americans with health care coverage.
Read it and weep you ignorant brainwashed moron. IF you are going to ask ME to provide backup to my claims maybe for once in your life YOU ought to do the same. My GOD you are stupid
October 8th, 2009 at 7:08 pmSo the answer to your question is since June 1, 1789…
October 8th, 2009 at 7:16 pmOops, that’s when Washington signed it… the Senate voted to approve this draft of a bill on May 15, 1789 to be precise.
Are you still reading, armand?
That’s a lot of links, I know, but being informed about how our Government works is worth it! Or at least I think it is.
October 8th, 2009 at 7:20 pmWhen you’re done reading, armand, if you wouldn’t mind summarizing for Michelle Bachmann?
She could use a refresher as well…
That’d be great, thanks!
October 8th, 2009 at 7:26 pmEugene, just give me 10 verifiable cases where the Hospital says that “Mrs. Jones” died because she didn’t recieve adequate Health care. Just 10 cases, Not some drummed up hype and talking points.
Can you give me those? If not then STFU. I’m tired of the Lefts crap and so called figures.
Proof and fact.
October 8th, 2009 at 7:54 pmCan you give me those? If not then STFU. I’m tired of the Lefts crap and so called figures.
Are you ready to talk about how a bill becomes a law, armond?
October 8th, 2009 at 7:58 pmSorry but I know how the Government works. I know that an outline of a Healthcare bill is nonsense. So far that’s all the Senate has. There is no defined bill and anything that they vote on is crap.
Vote now and we’ll write something later is not how it works.
Maybe it’s how you people do things but it’s not how it is supposed to be done. If you do this then you will have to answer to the American people for it.
I say “go for it”. See what happens.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:01 pmI know that an outline of a Healthcare bill is nonsense. So far that’s all the Senate has. There is no defined bill and anything that they vote on is crap.
Bullshit.
Here… http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/nation/documents/Americas_Healthy_Future_Act_amended_100209.pdf
Read it and stop whining.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:05 pmThis is what they are voting on next week.
ArmandWWWWWAAAAHHHHHH. You ignorant pathetic moron. That IS proof. A Harvard study. Only someone as bone ignorant as YOU would think telling me to get a testimony of a physician on a website even makes sense. I backed up my claims. Got some evidence they are wrong? Of course you dont. You got PUNKED. AGAIN. The poll shows a majority WANT universal healthcare the study shows tens of thousands per year DIE from lack of access to healthcare. It is there for normal humans to see what a liar and what a punk you are. No one cares what YOU think. You are stupid. You got punked. These things wont change. I am tired of morons as stupid as you thinking the sky isnt blue if you SAY it isnt. Just shove it up your tarhole you worthless pile of dogshit.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:05 pmSorry pal but I already know.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:06 pmhttp://pnhp.org/excessdeaths/health-insurance-and-mortality-in-US-adults.pdf
Here’s 45,000 verifiable cases, armond.
Grow up.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:06 pmSorry pal but I already know.
Apparently not. Didn’t you say this?
So when has a “DRAFT” become a qualified “BILL” to be voted on in the Senate????
Answer? Since the first bill draft was voted on and approved in the Senate in 1789… Jeebuz.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:08 pmIt’s crap and you know it.
Give me some proof. That’s all I want, not someones opinion. I didn’t see any facts in your post little boy.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:08 pmIt’s crap and you know it.
Ahh, so the Harvard Study that lays out its data and methodology is ‘crap’ but testimonials from ten people would be ‘proof’ and not ’someones (sic) opinion?’
No wonder the right-wing is so screwed up… you guys got nothing.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:14 pmSo you’re not as smart as you think you are. Now what’s wrong with your last statement? Jeebuz.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:14 pmSo you’re not as smart as you think you are. Now what’s wrong with your last statement? Jeebuz.
‘Bill’ and ‘draft’ are not separate concepts, idiot.
There is a draft of a bill that is being presented and voted on next week in the Senate… really, read those links.
You need help.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:16 pmAll BILLS that become LAWS start as DRAFTS and they are introduced through COMMITTEES and then MARKED UP and voted on, idiot.
Let’s watch this again.

October 8th, 2009 at 8:18 pmThere was no data in his link. Just bias propaganda.
I want the data not the hype.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:20 pmArmandWWWWAAAHHHHHHH YOU are a liar and a punk. In THIS venue if a major news organization citing a Harvard study isnt evidence then there is no such THING as evidence what I KNOW is you got PUNKED. Like you do EVERY time you try to talk substance because you are stupid and dont know what you are talking about. In fact this is such a well known fact that you are too stupid and uninformed to even be talking about this subject if you didnt know BOTH of those two ABSOLUTE FACTS. You can keep snivelling like the punk you are WWWWWAAAHHHHHH the sky isnt blue WWWWWAAAAAHHHHHHh it only makes that much clearer how stupid you are, how uninformed you are how pathetic you are and what a LIAR you are
October 8th, 2009 at 8:20 pmThere was no data in his link. Just bias propaganda.
I want the data not the hype.
Right, here you go…
http://pnhp.org/excessdeaths/health-insurance-and-mortality-in-US-adults.pdf
Although, I have very little hope that you will read it… you seem to lack reading comprehension skills.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:24 pmArmandWWWWAAAAHHHHHH you are a LIAR. If you wanted the data you could google the Harvard study. What is your REAL objection? Are you claiming Rueter is LYING about what the Harvard study says? You are just flailing around because you got PUNKED. AGAIN.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:25 pmI already knew who were voting next Tuesday. It seems that you didn’t. You had to go look it up. I guess you were not paying attention to what is going on in the Senate.
I’m not the whiner here, you are. You are also ignorant and think you know everything. You don’t and you are so wrapped up in yourself that you’re blinded to what is happening to you.
You’re a gullible putz. You all are here. You’re all blinded by your dogma and bias garbage.
Oh ya, you’re all a bunch of whiner’s [sic]. :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 8:30 pmI already knew who were voting next Tuesday. It seems that you didn’t. You had to go look it up. I guess you were not paying attention to what is going on in the Senate.
What?
Have you any concept of ANYTHING at all, armond?
October 8th, 2009 at 8:32 pmOh, nice!
Armband pulls the troll fave “I know you are but what am I” gambit out of his bag o’ tricks!
Cool.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:32 pmWhiner. You really are stupid. Liar, Lying, you’re a liar.
Same crap. Post the facts not the propaganda. You can do it if your Mommy will let you. No facts in the Rueter link either.
Who’s been PUNKED all day? Whiner.
Little Eugene the name caller, whiner. Take the thumb out of your mouth it will deform your teeth. Didn’t your Mommy ever tell you that. Whiner.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:35 pmCOOL. :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 8:36 pmArmandWWWWAAAAAHHHHHHH. My GOD you are stupid. What we think and what your every post shows more and more clearly is that YOU dont know ANYTHING. You are stupid and you are pathetic and you are so sadly uninformed you are an embarassment
October 8th, 2009 at 8:37 pmPost the facts not the propaganda.
http://pnhp.org/excessdeaths/health-insurance-and-mortality-in-US-adults.pdf
Grow up, armand.
You are an embarrassment to yourself and Americans.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:39 pmArmandWWAAAAAHHHH. You really are pathetic. You LOVE to lie and then hate to be called on being a liar. What a craven little punk you are. Reuters citing a Harvard study is propaganda? Are you for real? See what is evident is that you are a LIAR. You KNOW this is good evidence. You dont CARE. You are a LIAR. You LIE. You get pure joy from telling lies then its WWWWWAAAAAAHHHHHHHH when you are called in being a liar. At this point you are just sad. If you dont like being called a liar I have a simple solution. STOP. LYING.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:40 pmMethinks that armand must be a faux troll… no one could be that dense, could they?
October 8th, 2009 at 8:44 pmOctober 8th, 2009 at 8:45 pm
Propaganda. Death by uninsurance. Now that’s somthing.
Do you have something to say about the methodology of the study?
Do you even understand the methodology of the study?
Do you even understand anything?
At all?
That would be something.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:47 pmArmandWWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHHHHH. You are too stupid for mere words to convey. So in your sick delusions Harvard studies are propaganda because you dont WANT to believe it. Because it doesnt fit the delusional fantasies you have made up in your head? WOW. Do you realize how stupid you are? You do get that maybe 50 or more people will read your swill and say. WOW that guy is just white hot stupid. So I have a Harvard study. Exactly WHAT is YOUR evidence that this study is crap? OH you dont have any? Imagine my suprise. It is time to remind you about the first rule of holes. The one you have dug is like Grand Canyon deep at this point but by all means keep digging
October 8th, 2009 at 8:49 pmYes Belac. Incredible as it seems he really CAN be that stupid
October 8th, 2009 at 8:50 pmIt seems to me that there are many dense people here. You all join in don’t you? Eugene is the worst of you all. He’s so self centered that he can’t resist the chance to post his insults and garbage. Same stuff day after day. Hey Eugene, it don’t hurt. Words are just words. Don’t let your Mommy know you have been on the puter all day.
Whiner.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:51 pmWell come on ArmandWWWWAAAAAHHHHHH you asked me to back up MY claim. I did so with a Harvard study. Now either back up YOUR claim that the study is crap and propaganda with evidence at least as strong or admit what a mindless moron you are and STFU
October 8th, 2009 at 8:52 pmIt seems to me that there are many dense people here.
Tell me about how a bill becomes a law again, armand… I love that one…
October 8th, 2009 at 8:53 pmEugene, you’re ignorant. :-)
Stupid also.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:54 pmAre you always this much of a pathetic sniveller ArmandWWWWWAAAAAHHHH or just when you get punked so unmercifully? I just love that you keep on insulting us then snivelling like the pitiful punk you are that I am insulting you back. You are never going to be the only one doing the insults no matter how hard you try this desperate gambit. Why do you enjoy so utterly humiliating yourself?
October 8th, 2009 at 8:55 pmTell me about how this ‘DRAFT’ can’t even become a ‘BILL’ again, armand.
Even though they are one and the same… this is fun, it’s like having Michelle Bachmann on the other line!
October 8th, 2009 at 8:56 pmCompared to YOU ArmandWWWWWAAAAHHHHHHH I am Stephen Hawking
October 8th, 2009 at 8:56 pmPut up or STFU ArmandWWWWWAAAAHHHHH you pitiful punk. You demanded I back up MY claim. I did with a Harvard study so either cough up evidence at least as strong that the study is crap and propaganda or show the world how astonishingly stupid and what a LIAR you are.
October 8th, 2009 at 8:58 pmStop the crying Eugene.
You’ve been PUNKED all day. You’re totaly predictable and ignorant also. Most of you are here.
Whiner :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 8:58 pmarmand… please enlighten me with your concept of how a bill becomes a law and how the current path for Baucus’s bill is somehow ‘illegal’
Thank you.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:00 pmThey don’t even have a draft in the Senate, just an outline of a proposed draft. So you haven’t been keeping up with what’s happening now have you?
You really are ignorant. Trying so hard to put someone down. Typical Progressive idiot. You’re not so smart, just full of yourself.
Oh, and a whiner too.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:09 pmThey don’t even have a draft in the Senate, just an outline of a proposed draft. So you haven’t been keeping up with what’s happening now have you?
Yeah, still don’t get Senate procedures, do ya?
They will vote on this, then they will combine THIS committee’s mark up with the mark up from the HHS committee and then entire Senate will vote on THAT.
And then it will continue… stop listening to Rush and the Heritage Foundation. This is really no different from other major pieces of legislation.
Oh, and you’re an idiot, too! (did that make you feel better? Confirm your belief that all liberals just insult?)
Care to tell me how things SHOULD work in your warped world?
October 8th, 2009 at 9:17 pmWell if you only have an outline of a bill, not a written bill with specifics, and you intend on filling in the particulars later, then are the votes legal????
That was my question. I’m sorry that ignorant people like yourself who haven’t been keeping up with what is happening in the Senate don’t know this.
Then again you are a Progressive whiner. That might explain it. I don’t think I heard Blubberman or Madcow bring this up so it must not be true.
Whiner.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:17 pmhttp://www.senate.gov/reference/glossary_term/markup.htm
Psst… here you go, armand.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:19 pmWell if you only have an outline of a bill, not a written bill with specifics, and you intend on filling in the particulars later, then are the votes legal????
Yep.
’cause later the Full Senate will vote on the Bill that is the product of all these mark-ups…
Which is what I explained about fifty posts ago…
Yeah, I’m ignorant all right.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:22 pmJeebuz.
You know this is a committee vote, right?
And that the committee is proposing it’s changes to the larger bill?
Their ‘mark up?’
There are other committee mark-ups… the final bill the FULL Senate votes on will be a combination of those…
idiot.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:25 pmOnce again, the Baucus Bill is not my preferred iteration… Harkin’s HHS committee has a much better one, in my opinion.
AND, as I said before, the FLOOR of the Senate is much more open to the ‘public option’ and we only need 60 votes there for cloture… and then 51 votes to pass the Senate’s version.
And then the House version and the Senate version will be combined in a CONFERENCE COMMITTEE and then both houses will vote to approve the CONFERENCE COMMITTEE’s report and then THAT BILL will be sent to Obama to sign…
This is pretty much how it ALWAYS works, idiot. ;-)
October 8th, 2009 at 9:29 pmThanks but it means nothing. My question stands. There are no specifics in the Senate bill or outline of a bill. Even the CBO said it was difficult to score the bill because it wasn’t specific.
Sooooooo if it hasn’t been written yet can it be voted on? It is supposed to be written and discussed in committee. It hasn’t.
Haven’t you been keeping up with this stuff?
I guess not. You’re all mouth and not very smart either. Your link was nonsense and answers nothing.
I’m sure you are patting yourself on the back but you’re just an ignorant putz.
Sorry. I can improve my knowledge and spelling skills but you will still be an ignorant putz. Just like Eugene. You think you know everything. That’s your flaw. Oh ya, you’re a whiner also.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:33 pmThere are no specifics in the Senate bill or outline of a bill. Even the CBO said it was difficult to score the bill because it wasn’t specific.
This is a committee mark up… prior to a committee vote… there are other mark ups… see my previous posts.
I’m glad you are improving your knowledge…
October 8th, 2009 at 9:35 pmI did all along. Didn’t you? It was scheduled for Tuesday but it seems that it might be Thursday. More arm twisting is needed.
Are you keeping up with all this. Voting on something that hasn’t been written is the problem here. Not the process.
Jerk.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:38 pmThe delusion is strong in this stupid troll. I’m afraid that those who don’t arrive at their conclusions logically are impervious to reasoned discourse.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:38 pmVoting on something that hasn’t been written is the problem here. Not the process.
Jerk.
That IS the process… idiot.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:39 pmPut up or STFU you punkass moron. You demanded I back up my claim. I did with a Harvard study. Back up your claim that the study is crap and propganda with evidence as strong or admit you are a liar and bone chillingly supid, PUNK
October 8th, 2009 at 9:41 pmStones from a “middle of the roader” funny.
Are you going to fall into this nonsense like the others?
They can’t see what is happening here.
Blinded fools that they are. How about you Pete? Can you see what is going on? :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 9:44 pmEpic FAIL. ArmandWWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHHHHH has been punked AGAIN. Cough up the evidence the Harvard study is crap and propaganda with evidence like I did or admit what a loser punkass liar you are you snivelling little weasel
October 8th, 2009 at 9:47 pmLet me go slowly, armand.
The FINANCE COMMITTEE will vote on their MARK UP.
The CBO scored that MARK UP.
The CBO will also score AT LEAST three (3) versions of the HOUSE BILL.
The FINANCE COMMITTEE’s MARK UP will be combined with other MARK UP’s before a BILL is PRESENTED to the FLOOR of the SENATE for debate.
At that time it will require a vote of 60 SENATORS to cease debate (cloture)
Then it will require a vote of 51 SENATORS to PASS the final DRAFT of the SENATE BILL
Then it will go to a CONFERENCE COMMITTEE that will combine it with whatever BILL the HOUSE finally passes (unless they PASS the same BILL, which seems unlikely)
Then the CONFERENCE COMMITTEE will issue a report on the changes/compromises they made to come to the FINAL BILL.
Both HOUSES of CONGRESS will vote to APPROVE that REPORT and the FINAL BILL and then it will be sent to OBAMA’s desk (he’s the PRESIDENT and head of the EXECUTIVE BRANCH) for his signature and then it will become a LAW
Get it?
October 8th, 2009 at 9:49 pmWhat is happening here, armand?
How should it go differently?
October 8th, 2009 at 9:50 pmYou’re the idiot. Anyone can present a bill to Congress but it has to be specific and complete with details. If it isn’t, it hasn’t a chance of even being heard.
This nonsense in the Senate is neither. The whole country will be affected. I understand the process.
The idiots in the Senate don’t dare to be specific and let the American people see what they are doing. The House made that mistake and their bill got picked apart by the citizens of this country. They intend to pass this in the darkness without letting the American people ever see the specifics of the bill.
That’s un American but it is how people like you do things.
The lights are on and the roaches are hiding.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:54 pmArmandWWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
Cough up the evidence loser or admit you are a liar and a punk
October 8th, 2009 at 9:54 pmYou are doing just what is expected of you. :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 9:56 pmSo now ArmandWWWWAAAAAAHHHHH is telling the Senate how to pass bills and that they are doing it wrong. Your stupid knows no bounds WWWWAAAAHHHH. Cough up evidence the Harvard study is crap and propaganda or admit you are a liar and a punk
October 8th, 2009 at 9:57 pmCommittee Steps:
1.Comments about the bill’s merit are requested by government agencies.
2.Bill can be assigned to subcommittee by Chairman.
3.Hearings may be held.
4.Subcommittees report their findings to the full committee.
5.Finally there is a vote by the full committee – the bill is “ordered to be reported.”
6.A committee will hold a “mark-up” session during which it will make revisions and additions. If substantial amendments are made, the committee can order the introduction of a “clean bill” which will include the proposed amendments. This new bill will have a new number and will be sent to the floor while the old bill is discarded. The chamber must approve, change or reject all committee amendments before conducting a final passage vote.
7.After the bill is reported, the committee staff prepares a written report explaining why they favor the bill and why they wish to see their amendments, if any, adopted. Committee members who oppose a bill sometimes write a dissenting opinion in the report. The report is sent back to the whole chamber and is placed on the calendar.
Here are the steps, armand.
October 8th, 2009 at 9:58 pmThe House made that mistake and their bill got picked apart by the citizens of this country.
They are presenting THREE House bills to the CBO for review and scoring…
You have NO idea what you are talking about.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:00 pmStop your whining idiot. you lie, you’re lying, you’re a liar.
Whiner. You have proven nothing. I require facts and figures not opinions and propaganda.
Stop your crying and whining you foolish ignorant punkass loser.
BOO HOO little crybaby. Go suck your thumb in your crib.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:01 pmNone have any specifics in them. You think you know what is going on. That is your problem.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:03 pmSo thats IT? Ya got nothing? You are surrendering. We all know what evidence is. Harvard studies qualify. Snivelling like the punk you are which is ALL you ever do is NOT evidence. Calling a Harvard study crap and propaganda is NOT evidence. You demanded I show you the evidence. I did. A major news source citing a Harvard study is pretty much the gold standard for evidence on a venue like this. You just denying it IS evidence is like just denying that water is wet. You look like the fool you are. So you are a coward. You HAVE no evidence the study is crap OR propaganda. You just WISH it were. THAT makes you a LIAR. At this point everyone reading KNOWS you are a liar, a punk, and an ignorant troll.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:07 pmIt is now a proven fact. QED. Either cough up this evidence or you are forever exposed to all as a liar, a loser, and an ignorant punkass troll
Yes ArmandWWWWAAAAHHHHHH this is what it is like. You are getting punked like the very essence of being punked. You have been given two EPIC punkings. By me and by Belac. You are so stupid I feel sorry for you as pathetic and disgusting as you are.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:09 pmNone have any specifics in them. You think you know what is going on. That is your problem.
Bull. None have the FINAL specifics in them.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:18 pmThis happens all the time… it only seems ’scary’ to you because you have never seen it before… this will be good for you.
Look lacca. I know that whatever passes in the Senate will go into committee in the House and it will all be changed. My hope is that whatever comes out won’t destroy the country. Congress has never gotten the cost right on anything.
I’m not worried though, anything can be fixed by the right people. I hope that those on Medicare will survive the cuts until someone fixes it.

Then again Seniors have a powerful voice when it comes to elections in this country. They also don’t like being called Nazis by the left.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:19 pmArmand. Finally a reasonable post. I share your hope we fix medicare and agree that Seniors including the AARP is one of the 800 lb gorillas in the political process. By the way the left doesnt like being called Nazis and un-American by the right
October 8th, 2009 at 10:25 pmWhy on Earth would I engage a stupid troll who just makes shit up to be afraid of? It’s been proven to be quite ineffective.
However, I will offer this link for those who actually want an idea of what’s in the “Baucus bill”. Personally, I’m not a big fan and conventional wisdom seems to be that not much of it will be ratified as is. You might also want to try typing “health care bill summary” into the Google. Or you may look up the long versions if you have more patience with legalese than I do.

I now leave you to the flame war. It’s a beauty to behold but the poor troll is just going in ever decreasing circles.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:25 pmYou run along Pete. You haven’t posted anything I didn’t already know.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:32 pmOops! I forgot to mention that it’s wonderfully ironic that the stupid troll is, at least by implication, defending a dingbat who claims she couldn’t read “the bill” if she had three months time.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:32 pmArmand YOU are a liar. You dont know anything. You dont HAVE knowledge, you have delusions and talking points that you have been programmed with. You are a sad joke
October 8th, 2009 at 10:34 pmNot going to cough up the evidence I see ArmandWWWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHH you are a coward and a loser
October 8th, 2009 at 10:35 pmYou run along now, your Mommy is calling you.
You’ve been PUNKED here all day. Go ask your Mommy to explain it to you. Not only are you stupid but you’re also a fool.
OH ya, a whiner also. :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 10:36 pmArmandWWWWAAAAHHHHHH
Your contwo step isnt fooling anyone. It ISNT evidence of anything except your EPIC fail and punking. You demanded I show evidence. I did. Harvard study EVIDENCE. You snivelling like the punk you are over and over is not fooling anyone into NOT noticing you have NO EVIDENCE. When I demand evidence you devolve into a snivelling desperate semicoherent whine from fetal position I am sure. Little more than the WWWWWWAAAAAHHHHHHHh you are so famous for. Harvard study. EVIDENCE. Your pathetic snvelling NOT EVIDENCE. You can keep repeating your version of WWWWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHH over and over it wont mean those reading wont notice that when evidence was demanded YOU FAILED. You didnt even TRY. It is obvious to anyone you are a liar a loser and a punkass troll. Cough up the evidence or be forever known as exactly that a liar a loser and a punkass troll
October 8th, 2009 at 10:43 pmArmandWWWWAAAAAHHHHHH cough up the evidence LIAR. Then again you dont have any do you? LOSER
October 8th, 2009 at 10:52 pmThanks but I know this. So this bill will be thrown out and a clean bill will be presented. I won’t hold my breath on that one.
You people need to hide what you are doing. It’s the only way to make this work for you.
After the House gets through adding all the PORK to this bill it will cost the Citizens of this country an arm and a leg. Then they will vote you out of office. Obama will break his promise when the taxes hit the middle class and then he’s done for. Remember this “No new taxes” from the 90’s.
Enjoy your brief reign of power.
October 8th, 2009 at 11:04 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH enjoy your delusions. Cough up the evidence. Except you dont HAVE any. LOSER
October 8th, 2009 at 11:07 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
You are so impossibly stupid. You just pull idiotic BS out of your ASS and pretend its true because you say so. You have NO evidence for anything you say. So why do you ever demand evidence from anyone else? Everyone knows you are a liar a punk and a loser
October 8th, 2009 at 11:09 pmYou’re an idiot Eugene and a whiner.
Evidence of what whiner? What you couldn’t prove. Crybaby, punkass, idiot fool liar, you lie, you’re a liar ignorant child.
Go cry to your mommy little baby.
What a whiner you are. Oh ya, a liar also.
Stupidity has to run in your family. You show so much of it here.
You have a nice night. Go suck your thumb in the crib.
BOO HOO, poor Eugene the crybaby. MOMMY!!!!!!!BOO HOO. :-)
October 8th, 2009 at 11:16 pmArmandWWWWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I gave the evidence that tens of thousands die each year from lack of access to healthcare when you demanded I give it. Evidence. A Harvard study. YOU said it was crap and propaganda. Cough up the evidence it is crap and propaganda. What an EPIC punking you got today. You are a liar. PROVEN FACT. You have no reason to think the Harvard study isnt true except you WISH it werent. So with NO EVIDENCE you called it crap. YOU are a liar. YOU demanded evidence. When I demanded you give evidence the study was crap you dance, snivelled and punked out
You demand evidence but FAIL to give any. You snivel like a punk that I insult you while you insult us then call us whiners. Your projection is pitiful. You just make shit up. Pull it directly out of your ass and pretend its true just because you say it but I BACK UP what I say you go into a pissy little hissy fit when you CANT.
It didnt escape anyones notice that you didnt even TRY to show the Harvard study was crap or propaganda. You just SAID it was. You even steal my insults because, as is so patently obvious, you are far too stupid to think for yourself.
Its over. You are roadkill. You are stupid. You are pathetic. You are a liar. You are a punkass troll. And you SNIVEL worse than any little girl I have ever seen.
Your every post is WWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH because you are just flat too stupid for anything else
October 8th, 2009 at 11:46 pmArmandWWWWWAAAAAHHHHHH=LOSER
October 8th, 2009 at 11:47 pmThanks but I know this. So this bill will be thrown out and a clean bill will be presented. I won’t hold my breath on that one.
No- that’s what YOU are asking for when you argue for ‘THE FULL TEXT’ to be included. A ‘clean bill’ a re-write… this is a ‘mark up’ so far… try to pay attention, armand.
October 9th, 2009 at 3:18 amI love how Tracy_5 is arguing Bachmann’s popularity is growing (despite her lowing poll numbers) because she won the 2008 election, while similtaneously arguing Obama’s popularity is sinking – and sinking fast – all the while ignoring *he* won the 2008 election too.
Anyhoo – on topic: The Republicans can have Michelle Bachmann as long as us Democrats get to keep George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, etc. etc. They’ve done more good in the world and helped more people than Ms. Bachmann has ever dreamed of.
October 9th, 2009 at 5:14 amI guess you can’t pay attention. Or is it that you can’t read.
Geez you are stupid.
October 9th, 2009 at 11:32 amI read the study. They fail to mention if any of these people were drug addicts, have refused treatment for their ills or just afraid to go to a doctor. How many were smokers or had incurable deseases that could never be cured. How many died from a heart attack or a stroke????? Meso, ect.
I want facts, not propaganda. You don’t have any so you are a liar and a moron Eugene
You have proven nothing except that you are a Brainwashed moron who follows the party line and propaganda talking points.
Whiner. You little crybaby.
October 9th, 2009 at 11:49 amI guess you can’t pay attention. Or is it that you can’t read
Okay armand… you’re REALLY scared, I get it.
I’m done trying to make you feel better… this reform is coming, get used to it.

“And she did it in the most ‘Conservative-friendly’ district in ALL of MN… and she still lost ground.”
It hadn’t been untill she ran for office. Care to explain the 20 years prior it was contolled by a Democrat and now it’s the most “conserative” in all of MN?
I’d rather you explain that actually, the District was controlled by a Republican long before Michele Bachmann ever ran for office. Mark Kennedy for one, in 2002.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota%27s_6th_congressional_district
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Kennedy_(politician)
And judging by the votes, Kennedy’s District 6 was far more Republican-leaning than Bachmann’s current District 6. Girl has been losing the Republicans quite well it looks like.
October 9th, 2009 at 5:25 pmFirst of all, how incredibly sexist of O’Reilley.
“The only reason people like you two is because you’s purdy.”
And yes, Billy Boy…
Women on the left are going to be drawn over to the right wing because Palin and Bachman are such wonderful role models.
Actually, I’m pretty sure that’s why people (women in particular) HATE those two women in the first place: THEY MAKE WOMEN LOOK BAD!!!
These anti-feminists give women this paradoxical position in the public eye: that they’re strong leaders, but they’re also representative of all the backwards, sexist Christian crapola of being subservient to men and being anti-abortion, aka anti-women’s rights.
Sorry Bill, no one but the VERY ditzy actually likes these ditzes.
October 9th, 2009 at 5:40 pmArmandWWWWWWAAAHHHHHHHH
They failed to mention things that YOU made up that MIGHT POSSBILY be true MAYBE? Well I get that YOU are so stupid you think that is a valid argument normal humans know better. Harvard physicians KNOW who died from lack of access to healthcare and who didnt. You are a punk. You are a LIAR and everyone who has read this exchange knows this
People KNOW what evidence is and what ISNT evidence. Harvard study EVIDENCE. You whining like a little girl that you are getting PUNKED is NOT evidence. You are so stupid it is just sad and I feel sorry for you. Keep telling us how a Harvard study isnt evidence because YOU dont like what it says. That is the good stuff right there. Meanwhile YOUR evidence is NOTHING. The closest you come to even TRYING to give any evidence is making up hypotheticals that YOU then use to question the study? That is beyond weak. It is ludicrous
YOU are a LIAR. I have proven it. QED. You are also so stupid no one could possibly take you seriously anymore.
October 9th, 2009 at 7:15 pmIt hadn’t been untill she ran for office. Care to explain the 20 years prior it was contolled by a Democrat and now it’s the most “conserative” in all of MN?
No.
October 9th, 2009 at 7:47 pmYou can pay to study Political Science on your own… I will say this MN is very blue and used to be bluer.
Thank you for your sharing.!
October 14th, 2009 at 9:43 amI had never heard of Bachmann until this piece. She has attractive features, but she is no Sarah Palin on that front. Palin also has the advantage of not LOOKING positively psychotic, as Bachmann does. Whatever their looks, they both seem unhinged. gögüs estetigi
