Michele Bachmann Crashes, Burns, and Takes The Republican Party Down With Her

By claiming that Obamacare would literally kill people, and then calling Medicaid a ghetto, Michele Bachmann is destroying herself and the Republican Party.

-snip- (video at the link below)

Bachmann said, “That’s why we’re here because we’re saying let’s repeal this failure before it literally kills women, kills children, kills senior citizens. Let’s not do that. Let’s love people, let’s care about people. Let’s repeal it now while we can. Later, Bachmann came back to the House floor to pile on to the destruction, “Here’s the one that no American wants to be in. It’s the Medicaid ghetto,” she said. “And that’s where the lowest possible care, where very few doctors will be available available to offer this kind of care.”

Many have focused on Bachmann returning to form by saying things that are crazy, but there is a much bigger fish frying. Michele Bachmann’s latest right wing ‘episode’ has done major damage to the RNC’s efforts to fix their party. Just a few days ago, the talk was centered on the RNC’s autopsy report on how they lost the 2012 election. The discussion was centered on how Republicans could repair their party. Three days later, Michele Bachmann’s rant has firmly placed the Republican Party back on the same path that it was before.

When Michele Bachmann uncorks a rant about Obamacare, Medicaid, or Benghazi she confirms the widely held belief that the Republican Party is completely out of step with the rest of the country. Bachmann comments will get all the headlines, and she makes all Republicans look crazy.

1. we need her mug on the tv every night

followed by sarah, on an endless loop!

[Cooley Hurd]

2. We need the footage of her running away from Dana Bash on tv every night

She looked like the clown she is.

[Jackpine Radical]

3. "she makes all Republicans look crazy"

Isn't that sorta like…well…making all dogs look like canines?

[Kurovski]

12. But come on,

she's someone who's especially nutty in the noodle. She's very talented.

[lunatica]

4. Her reality is an interesting place where the laws of physics don't apply

Chaos where there is no there there.

[Flashmann]

5. Please continue

Ditz...

[Jakes Progress]

6. Would be nice if that were so.

But I fear she is operating on the same plan as ted cruz. Sure he is crazy and says batshit things. But every time he does, his electability in Texas goes up. The more that New York or Washington decries his antics, the better he is loved in his base.

If Bachman cared about the country, or about the republican party, or anything other than herself and her rich backers, it would make a difference. Too many crazy, ignorant, mean people vote.

7. Oh, the inanity!

[malokvale77]

8. She stands alone when it comes to crazy in Minnesota...

She narrowly qualifies when it comes to crazy here in Texas.

[Mz Pip]

11. She keeps getting reelected

How they managed to gerrymander that many crazy fools into one district is mind boggling. Is there something in the water?

[malokvale77]

16. No the water is great, mostly clear cold springs.

Here in Texas they've managed to gerrymander most of the districts to crazy. LOL

[LeftInTX]

9. Doesn't a Republican do this at least once a week?

And why are they controlling America?

[Kurovski]

13. I think it's because some people still don't know they can call their congress person.

And then work to toss them out when they don't do as you say.

[DrDan]

10. there were those here who also discounted rand paul couple years back . . . . and

now we have senator rand paul

loopy or not, she gets elected

[uselessobot]

14. She is useful to the GOP she makes the not as crazy ones look sane and reasonable even tho

they support the same policies as she does.

[Cha]

15. bachmann's a useful Idiot.

[area51]

17. "Let’s love people, let’s care about people."

Oh, really? If you really wanted to love people, Michele, and keep them alive, you'd be for single-payer health care.
