Michelle Bachmann is another big gov political hack

This is something that all of us on the right and left seem to agree on, no one wants the NSA spying on them without due cause, everyone should be taking down the list of politicians who support this shit, and make goddamn sure you dont support the politician in favour of it in any way.

At one point Bachmann even goes so far as to say the NSA doesnt have any data on anyone that isnt something they couldnt find in a phone book, well if thats the case, then why dont they use the goddamn phoner book and leavue us alone?

How is it that something that is so bi partisan among citizens can be so bi partisan among politicians, except in the opposite direction?

Bachmann and the rest of the authoritarian big government ass holes supporting trhis shit will not be missed.



REACTION TO MICHELE BACHMANN’S DEFENSE OF NSA DATA COLLECTION

Many were surprised when Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) not only defended the National Security Agency’s recently-revealed data-collecting policies, but went a step further and attacked those pushing a “false narrative” about the issue on Wednesday, after voting not to defund the program.

Glenn Beck listened to Bachmann’s comments on the radio Thursday, growing increasingly shocked as he listened to the assertions of his longtime friend.

The tape began with Bachmann saying, “A false narrative has emerged that the federal government is taking in the content of Americans’ phone calls. It’s not true. It’s not happening.”

Beck responded with a question: “Michelle Bachmann: What are they storing in the Utah NSA data storage facility? What are they storing in there — meat?”

After the audio resumed, the congresswoman said “there is more information contained in the phone book that sits at home on your kitchen counter about each one of us than…in the national security database.” Beck’s co-host Stu Burguiere said, “Love Michele Bachmann, but do we really believe there is more information in the phone book than in the NSA database? Does she really expect us to believe that?”

The camera then panned to Beck, who had written on his chalkboard: “Michele B- is not dead to me, but she is in very ill health.”

The group pressed forward with the audio, Bachmann proceeding to compare the data collected by the NSA to the information on an envelope, versus what is written on the letter inside it.

“Is there a privacy right as to what’s been written on that envelope? No there isn’t. Where there is a privacy right is what’s contained inside that envelope,” she said.

By the end of Bachmann’s speech Beck had modified the statement on his chalkboard to read: “Michele B- is n [sic] dead to me but she is in very very very ill health.”

He joked that he’s feeling fickle and tired today and that he still thinks highly of the congresswoman, before saying in a more serious tone that “this has gotta stop.”

If Bachmann had said something like, “Nobody’s reading your stuff, but they are storing [and] keeping records on every single American,” instead of repeatedly referring to a “false narrative” that he believes is misleading, Beck said he would have no problem.

She could have also said something like, “Look, I’m on the Intelligence Committee…[and] the American people don’t know what a precarious situation we’re in. While I’m gravely concerned about the NSA, I happen to think that we are in bigger trouble because [of a] more clear and present danger of the people who…want to kill us,” Beck suggested.

But to imply that the phone book has more information on you than the NSA, Beck said, is “insulting.”

“What do you think the Utah data storage center is for, Michele? Please don’t treat me like a moron. What are they storing in there? They’re not storing eggs and meat…they’re storing our records and our information… And this universal health care is going to make the NSA look like a rookie. They are storing records on every single American. All of our movements, all of our emails, and all of our purchases, all being stored. We know that.”

“There’s no freedom there and that’s not a false narrative, Michele Bachmann, and shame on you for saying that,” he said. “Shame on you. And I like you and I respect you, but shame on you.”

Here is a list of people who voted in favour of the NSA, these guys should be tried for treason, and should never gain anyones vote again under any circumstance. Notice how its all the establishment hacks.

Republicans in roman, Democrats in italic, Independents underlined.

As if Pelosi needed any more reason to be hated.... Hopefully Pelosi, and Bachmann have to share the same table while they both rot in hell.

How Nancy Pelosi Saved the NSA Surveillance Program

The obituary of Rep. Justin Amash's amendment to claw back the sweeping powers of the National Security Agency has largely been written as a victory for the White House and NSA chief Keith Alexander, who lobbied the Hill aggressively in the days and hours ahead of Wednesday's shockingly close vote. But Hill sources say most of the credit for the amendment's defeat goes to someone else: House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. It's an odd turn, considering that Pelosi has been, on many occasions, a vocal surveillance critic.

Ahead of the razor-thin 205-217 vote, which would have severely limited the NSA's ability to collect data on Americans' telephone records if passed, Pelosi privately and aggressively lobbied wayward Democrats to torpedo the amendment, a Democratic committee aid with knowledge of the deliberations tells The Cable.

"Pelosi had meetings and made a plea to vote against the amendment and that had a much bigger effect on swing Democratic votes against the amendment than anything Alexander had to say," said the source, keeping in mind concerted White House efforts to influence Congress by Alexander and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. "Had Pelosi not been as forceful as she had been, it's unlikely there would've been more Democrats for the amendment."

With 111 liberal-to-moderate Democrats voting for the amendment alongside 94 Republicans, the vote in no way fell along predictable ideological fault lines. And for a particular breed of Democrat, Pelosi's overtures proved decisive, multiple sources said.

"Pelosi had a big effect on more middle-of-the road hawkish Democrats who didn't want to be identified with a bunch of lefties [voting for the amendment]," said the aide. "As for the Alexander briefings: Did they hurt? No, but that was not the central force, at least among House Democrats. Nancy Pelosi's political power far outshines that of Keith Alexander's."

But despite the minority leader's instrumental role in swaying the vote, you won't find her taking credit: She's busy protecting her left flank from liberal supporters of Amash's amendment -- some of whom openly booed her at last month's Netroots Nation conference, in which she defended President Obama's NSA surveillance program.

When contacted, a Pelosi aide did not dispute the minority leader's assertive role in influencing Democrats, but passed along a letter Pelosi sent to the president today raising skepticism about the NSA's surveillance powers.

"Dear Mr. President," reads the letter. "Although the amendment was defeated 205-217, it is clear that concerns remain about the continued implementation of the program in its current form. Although some of us voted for and others against the amendment, we all agree that there are lingering questions and concerns about the current 215 collection program."

The letter goes on to question whether the bulk metadata collection program sufficiently protects the privacy of Americans, whether it could be tailored more narrowly and whether the law is being implemented in a manner consistent with Congress's intent.

Pelosi is no stranger to intelligence issues; she was a member of the House's intelligence committee in the aftermath of the September 9/11 attacks. In recent years, she's grown increasingly skeptical of surveillance powers authorized by the PATRIOT Act, which she voted against in 2005 when it was up for reauthorization and again in February. "Well, I didn't vote for the PATRIOT Act the last time it was up," she said today, at her weekly press briefing. "I don't want anybody to misunderstand a vote against the Amash resolution yesterday."

At the briefing, she emphasized her current effort circulating a letter for members to sign expressing concern over how metadata is collected. "The Administration is the custodian of the information. The ownership belongs to the American people," she said. "And we, as their Representatives, have to make decisions about it, we have to know more about it."
 
^ there are probably bachmann noods somewhere in the nsa database. :D

Good thread max, that list is huge and i didn't look through all of it but it seems even some of these tea party candidates just said whatever they had to in order to get elected, pathetic.
 
Max, I never understood how Bachmann ever became so popular on the right. Everytime I hear her scream we need to take this country back meanwhile she supports the war on drugs, NSA, patriot act, etc. Does she mean take the country back from us? LOL.

I think she takes a huge hit in popularity on this. Not that she had much in the way of career prospects before, but this will effectively end it.
 
Both bachmann, and palin have always struck me as disingenous nitwits, they always wait for someone else to take a position, then if said position is popular, they both support it heavily.

Meanwhile any time the two are left to think for their own, they get throughly confused and resort to authoritarian tactics that they dont understand.

Bachmann tried to claim the nsa data base has less info then the phone book, what kind of fucking idiot would even attempt to say something so stupid.

Quote from Lucrum:

You got any photos of Bachmann naked? Preferably when she was younger.
That's all I want to know.

Can't believe it! I was thinking the same thing! I'd like to see her "neeked" at around age 29:)
