Mt. Bachmann erupts

Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) managed to stop short of accusing large swaths of the United States Congress of being anti-American but only just barely, on Hardball with Chris Matthews:

This video is perfect evidence of why I could never host a show like Hardball. How Chris Matthews refrained from telling her what a nutjob she obviously is boggles my mind.

There was a time when you could be a Democrat or Republican, you could be a Liberal or a Conservative, you could even be a Socialist or a Libertarian and you were still pro-America.

Michelle Bachmann needs to be studied to find out what happens to people when they come to believe that their ideology is the only pro-American way. Her and people like her need to be watched so they do not take away the liberties they claim, in their pro-American rhetoric, to hold so dear.

It's got electoral votes. It's what politicians crave.
