Bachmann Calls Obama ‘Shameless’ on Night of Civility
Source: Bloomberg

It wasn’t exactly a “you lie” moment, though on a night designed to showcase bipartisan civility Representative Michele Bachmann had a few choice words for President Barack Obama.

“He’s absolutely shameless,” the Minnesota Republican could be seen saying to her seatmate, Representative Jean Schmidt, an Ohio Republican, according to a video taken in the U.S. House chamber during Obama’s State of the Union address two nights ago.

Bachmann, 54, who later gave a televised response to the president on behalf of the Tea Party Express, turned back to face Obama and repeated, “Absolutely shameless!” She spoke as the president was saying the government should balance its budget more like average American families.

...

“I think all members, House and Senate, Democrat and Republican, responded to the president’s speech in many different forms,” Boehner told reporters. “The more the merrier.”

1. I'd like to see Bachmann's birth certificate...
I swear she is some kind of zombie alien from Planet Stepford.

12. We should start a movement asking to see it.
And when she shows it we'll say it's not real and demand to see the real one. We'll do this over and over again. Yeah!.... Nah, wait a minute, that's absurd. Nobody in their right mind would do something like that.

3. HA HA, Bachmann is shameless, so she accuses Obama of being shameless
That is Republican 101 - Accuse others of what you are actually doing.

4. She is becoming the new Palin, and the more we acknowledge her and she receives press time,
the more recognizable she is going to be to average Americans. Many people don't listen to what she actually says, she looks nice.
