Rep. Michele Bachmann said that exposés of “criminal tomfoolery†inside of ACORN could kick off a campaign to “defund the left.â€
ST. LOUIS — Speaking to a packed hotel ballroom at the conservative How to Take Back America Conference, Rep. Michele Bachmann said that exposés of “criminal tomfoolery†inside of ACORN could kick off a campaign to “defund the left.â€
Bachmann was introduced warmly by Phyllis Schlafly, the iconic conservative activist whose Eagle Forum was the chief sponsor of the event. “She’s one of our Republican stars,†said Schlafly, “and some of you came here just to see her.†She got a second introduction from Dick Bott, a conservative radio host who briefly broke down talking about Bachmann’s hospitality to foster children.
Taking the stage, Bachmann thanked Schlafly, calling her an inspiration as a mother who transitioned into conservative politics, and said she considered the conference “a farewell party for ACORN!†The community organization group, she said, was the first, not the last, weak link in the liberal establishment.
“Defunding the left is going to be so easy,†said Bachmann, “and it’s going to solve so many of our problems.†She praised James O’Keefe III and Hannah Giles, the people behind the ACORN sting. “Hannah and James used Saul Alinsky’s ‘Rules for Radicals’ — that’s the community organizer’s bible — againt ACORN! Brilliant!â€
Bachmann touched on the priorities of Republicans if they retook Congress in 2010, to “pass repealer bill after repealer bill,†to prevent the creation of a one-world currency, and to pull the government back from the “36 percent of private business profits†that she claimed it now controlled. And she said Michigan residents were “depressed enough†without Gitmo prisoners being relocated to state facilities where they could inspire more terrorists.

1. “Defunding the left is going to be so easy, and it’s going to solve so many of our problems"
Michele, if you seriously think your problems stem from the left being "funded," whatever that means, you're even more bat-shit crazy than we first thought. You go with that strategy, Michele. See how it works for you. Just, whatever you do, don't actually look inward, or at the other nut-bags which have become the standard bearers for the right wing. You just play the "defund the left" card. We'll be watching your latest epic fail.

Defund the left.....sounds like a good plan to me.
We wouldn't be in debt if not for the leftist vote buying schemes(Welfare, et., etc.).

You know, Pedro Picasso has to be a poor business planner.
For eight years, Pedro Picasso lived high off the hog, hawking his anti-Bush "art."
But after George Bush retired, no more market for anti-Bush stuff.
And so Pedro Picasso had to take a job with a political "non"-profit organization.
Now, long about, say, May or June 2008, it should've been obvious to Pedro Picasso that George Bush was soon going away, and with him, the market for anti-Bush "art."
That would've been a great time for Pedro Picasso to apply for all these "art" awards and grants, and his income would've continued on uninterrupted.
Alas, it doesn't seem Pedro Picasso looks further ahead than the six inches between his face and the screen of the television.

I think the problem with "Puny Pedro" frank, is not the 6" between his face and the TV, but more likely it's the vacuum between his ears!
