For months, Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann has been an almost constant, outspoken presence on TV and radio talk shows, often lobbing rhetorical grenades that have delighted conservatives, infuriated liberals and raised her national profile far beyond Minnesota's Sixth Congressional District.

A few of Bachmann's zingers have backfired. But this week, one of her targets -- Minnesota Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison -- fired back.

Bachmann started the row last week when she said during a radio interview that the controversial "flying imams" -- six Muslim men removed from a plane at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport in a well-publicized incident in 2006 -- had come to the Twin Cities to attend Ellison's victory celebration after his initial election to Congress.
