Bachmann wins Iowa Straw Poll


Posted: Aug 13, 2011

Ron Paul was 2nd place.  Very pleased with this result in a state filled with social cons.  Michelle won by less than 200 votes.  Hope this is a sign of change to come.

CNN Poll Shamefully Skewed. De-skew The Poll And It'sSep 11, 2012
The campaign to mislead the public, discourage conservative voters, etc. is underway, full bore. Do NOT believe ANY polls.  Think for yourself - and VOTE, regardless of any polls that might suggest that Obama has this sewn up.  The DNC had a disastrous convention and they're also trying to make that look like the best thing since conventions began. (You can tell from the desperation of his campaign strategy that HE knows he doesn't have it sewn up.) ...

Michele Bachmann: Welfare Queen Posted on Dec 22, 2009 By Yasha Levine Michele Bachmann has become well known for her anti-government tea-bagger antics, protesting health care reform and every other government “handout” as socialism. What her followers probably don’t know is that Rep. Bachmann is, to use that anti-government slur, something of a welfare queen. That’s right, the anti-government insurrectionist has taken more than a quarter-million dollars in g ...

Bachmann Compares Self To Serial KillerJun 27, 2011
Maybe there can be a history round in the Republican primary debates. In an interview after she announced her candidacy, Michele Bachmann promised to act in the spirit of Waterloo, Iowa’s, John Wayne. But it turns out John Wayne Gacy, the serial killer, lived in Waterloo, while John Wayne, the movie star, lived in Winterset, nearly a three-hour drive away. "Well, what I want them to know is just like John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa. That's the kind of spirit that I have, too, ...

A 17-year-old gay teen attending the Dr. Marcus Bachmann's counseling clinic in 2004 was told he could "pray the gay away" and that God would forgive him if he went straight.  When John Becker attended the sessions, he was told, "The truth is God, God has designed our eyes to be attracted to the woman’s, to the woman’s body, to be attracted to, you know, everything. You know, to be attracted to her breasts.”  Wow.  Another role for women to p ...

Bachmann Falsely Claims She Never Made A Penny From Jun 28, 2011
Before attacking Karl Bremer, be sure to check out Bachmann's own financial disclosure forms (conveniently linked to in the article) which tend to back up every single claim he makes.  There are a ton of alternate sources out there reporting on this, but I chose this piece because it is thorough yet concise, well referenced and very much to the point.  By Karl Bremer Michele Bachmann kicked off her presidential campaign in the farm state of Iowa by lying about the federal f ...

Michelle Bachmann Is A Ditz...Rick Perry Is Stupid...Aug 30, 2011
If anyone wonders why this country is in the political turmoil and economic state that it is in, maybe we need look no further than our own mirrors. Whether it be an informal "debate" or political commentary in the public media, the state of political discourse has been reduced to the playground level. "You're stupid!."  "No, you're stupider."  "It's Bush's fault."  "It's Obama's fault."  Are we really no more grown up than that?  When w ...
