Everyone who voted for Obama, however disappointed, and the 50% of Republicans who could never imagine someone like Bachmann could be their nominee for president.Descriere
Michele Bachmann is even meaner, wackier & more hypocritical than you thought Sure, she′s virulently antigay, antichoice, antigreen, and antiscience. Sure, she′s famous for claiming that the Founding Fathers ended slavery, accusing fellow U.S. representatives of being anti–American, and other "Bachmannia." But no matter what you′ve heard about Michele Bachmann, there′s worsemuch worse. In this startling exposé, the bloggers at DumpBachmann.com, who have been dogging her heels for the past decade, reveal the frightening truth about the woman who could become the Republican Party′s 2012 presidential nominee. Discover the real stories behind: Bachmann′s long–standing, faith–based, antischool agenda "Bathroomgate"Bachmann′s claim to have been detained by two lesbians in a public bathroom The influence of outside money on her efforts and policy positions Bachmann′s use of tele–town halls to avoid direct, unscripted contact with constituents Her fanatical fellow travelers, questionable pastors, and criminal supporters Bachmann′s political boondoggles, pernicious (but failed) legislation, and fairy–tale foreign policy Whether you′re a disappointed Democrat, an embarrassed Republican, or a sane independent, The Madness of Michele Bachmann tells you what you need to know to scratch one candidate off your list of possible presidential nominees.
