Bachmann Trashes Obama Cabinet Picks (VIDEO)

Representative Michele Bachmann (R-MN) is up to her old tricks, it would seem. On Hardball in October, the then-freshman representative told Chris Matthews that she thought Obama was "very anti-American," a statement that came to put her reelection campaign in jeopardy, to the point where the GOP reportedly pulled ads from her race. Last night on Hannity and Colmes, Bachmann pulled a 180 and said that Obama's cabinet picks revealed the man she once deemed too radical to be president to be "more of the same."

From the same know nothings that tanked the Economy!

Hannity and Bachman, still gulping down that kool-aid eh? Can't get enough? Very unfortunate that you both are grappling for whatever political stick and twig you can find. President Elect Obama is here to stay so please just allow him the courtesy to do his job and turn this country around.

Baughman is just one more example of what is wrong with the Republican Party. They seek to tear down whatever it is they cannot control--unless it is right wing lunacy. Hannity loves to have these kind of people on his show so they can talk their own worn out version of "more of the same." if Obama picked completely new people no one had ever heard of before, or those who had no political experience then they would criticize that also. Obama will never be suitable as far as they are concerned---so who is suprised by the talk coming from Faux news? Fox should change their name to the MLC station...(Misery Loves Company).

How that batty woman was re-elected simply baffles me.

This woman is as divisive, mean spirited, and un-smart as anyone this nation has ever endured.

I wonder.....

Has bauchman done ANYTHING other than spew unintelligent blather since her election? I cannot find ANY FORM of Congressional success, other than her role as ignorant attack dog for the GOP.

Anyone differ with this?

Boy, Bachmann, Mary Bono, Mean Jean Schmidt, Heather Wilson, the GOP is wearing out stupid like nobody's business.

Don't hog it all, girls! Save some for the rest of the Republican caucus! Or your dominance in the south will be over!

...and she is credible, why exactly?

[Zyzzygowski]

The change is HOW business will be conducted and not the personnel who will do it. Think Sen Lieberman - ordinarilly he would have been bounced because of his conduct. The policy of change that Pres Elect Obama professes is not about acrimony and getting the better of the other guy, it is about embracing the other guy in order to better the country. Although there will be disagreements it is possible to do it in an agreeable manner.

Bachman is a sickening throwback to MCarthyism, and she is a bold faced liar.

[sippewissett]

Like Palin, Bachmann suffers from "foot in mouth" disease. She has not been chastened by her near-defeat a few weeks ago. She's another politician who doesn't know what she doesn't know. Can't we get rid of them? And do we need a woman to be as dumb as many of her male counterparts? For heaven's sake, let's get a smart woman or 10 or 20 to run for congress and get rid of these blowhards who talk before thinking...or instead of thinking.

Remind me to thank all of my neighbors for voting this wackadoo in for another term. Such happy times up here in MN-06.

Does anyone have a spare rusty butterknife?

Hey Nochange...he has been president elect for ten days...get a clue!

[boz561]

"back to the future....would be if she took off on the flying skateboard to China!"

Poor old Hannity and Bachmann. They still haven't realized how irrelevant they are now.

[Clayton139]

Really ! Both of them !

With political skills such as she has been demonstrating lately I'm sure Congresswoman Bachmann is going to be an extremely effective representative for her district in the 111th Congress. Congratulations to all who voted for her, you've earned the kind of representation you'll be getting.

Minnesota, what did you do? I thought Sven and Oley were fictional characters. Evidently they vote.
