When will government of the people, by the politicians, for the corporations perish from this Earth?
Not soon enough!
your mother must have been in labor.
This doll is marvellous. I hope it really takes off. Best to Bachmann, and her rich elite pals.

This doll looks far too clever to be Bachmann. Otherwise, it has the right crazed/stupid eyes.

It's incredible that the reason someone like Michelle Bachmann is able to stay in office just because of how her district is set up. I personally feel that such a set up ( gerrymandering to create 'safe seats') is one of the main reasons why politicians do not feel they are answerable to their constituents. Gerrymandering should be done away with.
that thr rules change when they have the majority in their state legislation. That's why it doesn't make sense to vote 3rd party until they build up in the local elections.
I think Michele Bachmann has been drinking a lot of Fluoride in the water. Too many other people are too :)

She seems to me to be a genuine 'bumpkin'. I'd almost said 'well meaning bumpkin' but i just can't accept that after the things she's now said.

I'm hoping Tarryl Clark takes out Michele Bachmann.
Tarryl is great.

To most Christians, the Bible is like a software license. Nobody actually reads it. They just scroll to the bottom and click "I agree."

“"If you have a cynical attempt to prevent the president from getting credit for doing anything -– completely partisan and trying to destroy the presidency -– then those things will happen. I started coming back and telling my staff and my friends -– way back in spring of ’09 -– that something is going on out there that is pretty deadly and pretty harsh even before we had any idea what the health care bill was going to be. There appears to be a systematic, conscious attempt to dismantle this president, so I’m less surprised than other people." Senator Russ Feingold

The U.S. never should have supported the coup.
"The US has an army of 90,000 soldiers in Afghanistan and is spending $100bn a year, but has still been unable to defeat 20,000-25,000 Taliban who receive no pay at all." - Patrick Cockburn
We all know that the US just loves holding a nice coup every once in a while.
The U.S. never should have supported the coup.
It seems the USA is wired for coups. It's what you do... (cough) best.

the US (Obama, sHilary) totally backed the coup

"Freedom" is on the march in Afghanistan. Petraeus speaks out against Quran burning. Best health care in the world? Consumer Watchdog doesn't like it when Google ogles users. Sure, you did. Oz Labor Party wins again. Giving Obama the Byrd. Iran really wants to be seen as legitimate....LAPD's shooting of a guy for being brown not very popular. A picture of Blair is worth a thousand words more interesting than his book. Take my mind, please! Ready to take the plunge? Will Frank get tea-bagged? Non-stick cookware can raise your cholesterol? Lethal injections postponed, due to low supply of materials.

The conservaturds sure sounded like Chatty Katy on the DMN blog site regarding Obama's speech. Not only recycling the secret Muslim (one idiot kept referring him to Imam Obama), to Socialist to he was whining.
At one point I asked for them to let me know if they ever saw him crying a'la boehner and beck.

Did they just repost old messages, or did they bother to write new ones?

What seemed even odder was the arguments the conservaturds were using on the DMN blogsite seemed to be word-for-word what those purporting to be liberals we're using on this site yesterday.

Have you known anyone personally who has taken thorazine or had a mental illness? Do they deserve to be compared to scumbags like Michelle Bachmann? If any of you at C&L have criticized Dr. Laura for spouting the N-word (and you should), then you ought to reconsider how much you've used mental illness for your name-calling. There are plenty of good and functioning people who have mental illness, some of them liberals like us. Do you really need to insult them in the process, because it's so important to insult Bachmann?
This being Labor Day (when I wrote this, day after now), I'd like to make sure readers know about the wonderful Anne Feeney, "unionmaid, hellraiser, and labor singer."
Anne is being treated right now for serious cancer and can use all the support she can get. Donations are needed, of course. When performers can't perform, they can't earn a living. Besides that, though, I'd like to recommend to Blue Gal's friends that they check out some of Anne's music. And while you're at it, buy some. :-)
I provided a link to Anne's website above. You can also buy her work from the iTunes Store.
