Of course she looks crazy, because she is crazy

Explain. Show your work.

The pictures speak for themselves.

That figure by the lamp, is that at Madame Toussets?

If you take two hours worth of video of a person and use only five minutes of it, you can make them look like an blooming idiot or genius, it all depends on your objective. Like MSNBC, Newsweek’s objective is to get Obama reelected.

Well one thing for sure there will be no CRAZY Michelle Obama photos coming out.

One might then ask why they are spending so much time on Mad Michelle. “She don’t seem like no threat me.”

Good god Tommy, have you looked at some of the pictures of you posted on this site?

This is why professional photographers take dozens of pictures to get that good one.

I must say though, that when the orders come down from on high, you sure like to follow them.

Has she announced she’s running for elective office?

Tommy: I’m not saying you’re wrong, but a quick glance at the photographer’s website and his blog shows that he’s not a standard-issue “news photographer” — most of his portfolio shots appear staged, sometimes elaborately — so he may use a different method than some of your friends.

Also, one suspects that the photographer may have given the magazine selected images for their cover consideration and even if he had taken rapid-fire shots, alternative versions of the same pose may not have been among their choices.

IOW: It’s quite a leap to say, “he had to have done X and they did Y because it’s what I know”.

I can’t tell if I feel bad that she is married to a gay guy, or I should just be afraid of her. There’s something about those eyes… she’s killed before. XD

The overweening contempt for ordinary American voters dripping from the Team Obama media mouthpieces at Newsweek is patently obvious in their grotesque smear of Congresswoman Bachmann: “The elderly, the unemployed, the exasperated, and even a few disillusioned Democrats crowd her rallies and cheer her not-going-to-take-it-anymore shtick, even as they recognize some of its inherent contradictions.” Into Newsweek’s Demented Left echo chamber, no light from the real American political world of fly-over country penetrates. This is the Newsweek that stated in 1980 that “Fringe candidate Ronald Reagan has no chance of getting a elected.” This is the Newsweek that has lost 56% of its circulation over the last 10 years.
  “Bachmann planned to vote against the debt-ceiling compromise that would ensure the arrival of her Social Security check and the military benefits owed to her sons and nephews.”
This last statement is an outright fabrication by Newsweek. The Wall St. Journal proved that Social Security payments of $50 billion/month could have been paid 100% out of the SS Trust fund with no net cash drawdown from the Treasury. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111903554904576458294273264416.html?KEYWORDS=social+security+trust+fund

So, if a publication uses a photo of Michelle Obama looking pissed off for their cover with a caption saying “Big Mama Pissed Off again”, that would be fine with Tina Brown and the leftists, since one can easily produce thousands of similar photos of Mooch looking pissed off with crazy mad eyes.

To the contrary, it’s the tea party’s contempt for “ordinary” American voters that should have you outraged. The TP gang were prepared to fight to the death to protect Paris Hilton’s and Warren Buffett’s tax breaks, while telling Grandpa, who fought in WWII, to eat less and skip his meds. They’re loathing for the poor and middle class is frightening.

You are correct in calling bullshit, TC. 

Most of their 8 pics they posted were not even pics from the actual cover shoot, and # 6 looks like a test lighting shot – she is standing around, dabbing her eyes. Total BS that those are the only options they had…. 

And the action/crowd shots are most likely for the inside story, not the cover. They would have had hundreds or  at least dozens of shots to choose from. And we have seen lovely pictures of her, so it is ridic that they try to claim it is her fault, not theirs, that they chose that bad pic for the cover.

And we know they could have tweaked it in PS if they wanted to. They photoshopped her flag lapel pin out of the shot, they could have fixed her eyes, if that were truly the only available shot (which it wasn’t). 

The praying picture is better than the cover they chose. And so is the one with the old dude – yet that one didn’t quite fit with their headline that she is the Queen of Rage, did it?

They followed her around for a week and took 8 photos?  Where are the other 9,000 “outtakes” where she doesn’t look she just flew out of the Ark of the Covenant?

…their, not they’re…

I assume that you’ve been equally critical of Fox News for their selective coverage of Obama? 

lol– if Howard Dean can be submarined with a 10 second outclip, then why not this crazy B**ch? Gander meet Goose!

Anyone with a TV has heard her ravings. From her calls for a McCarthyite commission to investigate congress, to her wildly untruthful claims that Obama spent $200 million a day on his trip to India, this woman is a walking, talking insanity machine.

This is not news.  It’s a hit piece.  No respectable journalist would dare run a photo essay like this on Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, Sonia Sotomayor, etc.  You don’t think there are plenty of crazy-looking photos of Nancy Pelosi?  But Mediaite wouldn’t run an article on them — and shouldn’t.   Even National Enquirer wouldn’t stoop so low.

National Organization of Women have now come out and said this is over the top and sexist. They usually will not defend a Republican.

Really? We’re REALLY having this conversation? Too bad Mediaite and other news outlets see Michele Bachmann whining about a cover worthy of covering, but a Republican calling our President “Tar Baby,” Pat Buchanan calling our President “boy,” and Dead Beat Dad Joe Walsh owing nearly $120,000 in back child support, is hardly worth a mention. Media coverage is half the problem … when you continue to cover batshit crazy candidates like Bachmann whose grasp of the facts is so lacking that a Newsweek reporter called her the worst politician he’s EVER covered who gets the facts wrong so often, but think a total lack of respect for our President can just slide by.  And then, of course, you also totally ignore coverage of the S&P report that called out the Republican role in this debt crisis choosing only to focus on “The Administration” or only “the President’s” role.   to say I’m disillusioned is a mild understatement.

Bachmann has the spirit of John Wayne Gacy, she admitted it and it shows.

You can’t hide crazy.

As Redd Foxx used to say: there’s nothing uglier than an old white woman.

Well if you are a heterosexual woman that who has been married to a closeted gay man you would be a little whacky too!

She’s obviously bannanas!

Perhaps it is time to hire a new photographer? If these are their best, it is time to hire. 

you mean no more photos …  theyve already put there fair share of Michelle Obama “bad” photos out.. they being the right that is.. where was your outrage then?
ps remind me what michelle is running for again?

You must not read many blogs.  They all do this.  Huffington Post is famous for terrible pics.  They do it to all their stories regardless of man-woman-lib – rep etc. 

If this is the best argument that the Democrats have against Bachmann, beating Obama will be a breeze.

Having met and spoken to God has that affect on people.

Newsweek think their readers are actual idiots.  Michelle is on TV, we all can see she is a beautiful woman.  Everyone takes bad pictures, the picture just reminds me of a DMV photo.   Newsweek’s better excuse is to say they have no money, so they hire really bad photographers.   Much more believable excuse.   

She looks crazy in all of them!  They should just photoshop them to get rid of those CRAZY eyes.  LOL

Except a black woman of any age.

Except a black woman of any age.

You don’t read much.  There are tons of nasty photos of Michele. 

How about some glamour photos from Michele’s college days?

How about some glamour photos from Michele’s college days?

Not a Bachmann fan (at all) and even I think the cover was a cowardly move by Newsweek. However, I’m a bit shocked that nobody is talking about the story itself, which was a serious hit job. Again, not here to defend a woman whom I also think is a bit unhinged, but when is see covers like this, and read the story itself, I can sorta see what she means by LSM.

Mooch? Really?

Mooch? Really?

Putting Michele Bachmann on the cover of Newsweek is a clear indication of why nobody reads magazines anymore as circulation for such publications is pretty flat with no growth.  Would any normal person want that magazine with her picture sitting on a coffee table?  Hell no!  In addition she has as much chance of being President as Donald Trump.  In other words not worth the cost to buy Newsweek this week.  

You’ve sort of worn that line out there skippy.  Any new material coming down the pike?
She admitted it did she?  I also heard her say she doesn’t much care for nachos. 

Looks like a woman that likes her alcohol.  I would drink with her and kick her out of my house about 1:30am.  There is no way I would want to wake up to that sight!

the trip # was from an indian newspaper and congress is very corrupt (money in freezers, tuition help for family members, tax dodging by many).  I’m sure you have better examples than these two.  

Can we all just agree that she simply isn’t very photogenic and move on? Sheesh.

Tina Brown is a dried-up, left-wing cunt and nothing more.

You also seem to suffer from “selective outrage” – better get it treated before it spreads there hon. 

what is the liberal ‘you’re gay’ attacks so common.  It’s like a syndrome with liberals lately…

its not the photos that are bad really … its just her eyes… her eyes photograph “crazy” or “bug eyed” what ever you want to call it… she can’t help it… it would probably have to be photoshopped away.. i mean she has good skin and nice teeth.. its just her eyes photograph that way..deal with it..

you crossed the line.  Get back over it. 

If Tina Brown was happy with her own looks, she’d realize that attacking pretty women is unacceptable.  The problem is this isn’t high school anymore, and Newsweek used to be a reputable magazine… 

On a side note, good for NOW for calling it out.  Nice to see …

She’s strange, almost robotic, does not photograph well. But her monotone voice, and continuing to repeat her bio, “I was a tax lawyer, the foster kids, her christian beliefs” is the creepiest part. Her unchristian hatred of homosexuals should be a dealerbreaker for the GOP, but of course, it likely won’t be.

I didn’t say that bloggers don’t do these kind of hit pieces.  I said respectable journalists don’t serve up this garbage.  Of course, I am operating on the assumption that Mediaite wants to be considered a respectable journalistic outlet….

So what if the number was from an Indian newspaper? Shouldn’t an elected representative be expected to do more strenuous research than looking at some newspaper? Moreover, shouldn’t they also be expected to have the common sense to have realised $200 million a DAY for a handshaking holiday is completely ridiculous? And I think you’ll find there is already apparatus in place to investigate corruption in Congress. So what Bachman thinks is needed in addition to that is beyond my understanding.

I disagree. It makes no sense, but they had a softball photo about Sotomayor to imply she might be gay, and talk of Hillary’s pantsuits as though it matters.   Sexism in the media is more strongly against conservatives, but it’s also common against powerful women of all sides. It’s everyone’s job to stop this crap now…

there’s no way you believe that…… just wait until the campaigning really begins..”crazy eyes” will be the least of her problems when the other Republicans candidates hit teams get their hands on her..

Did Newsweek ever consider asking the Bachmann Campaign Team to provide a photo?  If they did that, they wouldn’t be in such hot water.  I don’t read Newsweek any longer.  It is just another liberal rag.  Why should I pay money for garbage that they spew out to an unsuspecting American public.  Like all of the others, Newsweek will go down the  tubes eventually.

She never raised 23 foster kids most were in her home for only a week. 
  The only thing she did as a tax attorney was work for the IRS and that’s it.
  

Soooo true. All liberals are extremely bigoted and hateful. They act like besties w/ gays and minorities until someone does something they don’t like (i.e. think for themselves) then the slurs start flying.

Liberal media outlets are failing/struggling to keep in business. Soon only government interference/help will be able to keep them open. Newsweek: The only thing you had to sell was your credibility and you sold that to the progressives. Quit calling yourselves ‘Newsweek’ and switch to an entertainment format like Mediaite, that may be the only thing that keeps you solvent.

At least she can spell “bananas”. When in doubt, sing “Hollaback Girl”.

she looks like she could be placed in one of Madame Taussauds Wax Museums without any more processing to me…creeeepy….

That she has big eyes?

Sorry if some of us see Michelle using Obama’s election as a way for her to live out a “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” lifestyle on our dime. I hope she and her Mom and daughter have a great time in Oregon this week.

Yep exactly what I said yesterday, Newsweek chose the least batshit photo out of the bunch. This woman is on permanent batshit, no turning that off.

You can just call me fielding:)

and Obama did what?  vote not present for a couple of years and ‘organize’ a protest?

Everyone knows that Liberals and Democrats hate gays.  The Phelps clan are
influential Democrats.

Dowager Empress. 

Why do you keep talking about Michelle?

The woman is batshitcrazy, a compulsive liar, incompetent, and a dangerous jesus freak.  This is what represents the republican taliban out to destroy america.

How is it that Snowspot crossed the line…According to the idiot GOP dominated South they are bringing charges that will put women in prison for having miscarriages. (Most miscarriages are God’s way of saying that the fetus was not growing properly) While these same idiots think that taking drugs cause miscarriages and still borns they don’t. Almost all drug baby’s are born, they are just drug addicted, and it takes time for the baby’s to get weaned of drugs.

Remember Michele had a miscarriage, so according to those idiots…She has killed before.

No she isn’t crazy but those of you on the left are. These attacks on Conservatives esp women are juvenile. Unless you have actual proof of Bachmann being crazy it would be in your best interest to shut your pie hole :) 

Stop protecting OBAMA. The man has spent more money than all 43 presidents who came before him. The fact that you still support the Socialist Idiot who has no Business Experience and who couldn’t run and manage a Hot Dog to save his life confirms that you’re not only insane but a pinhead. WISE UP. 

One word comes to mind after reading your post. You’re TRASH :) 

The Tea Party is ordinary Americans who sick and tired of the government spending more than it should. Shrimp on treadmills, Cash for clunkers that cost 45,000 per car, hundreds of millions siphoned off to organizations willing to protect self described pimps, 20,000 additional rules since 2008, 1,500,000,000,000 in new debt per year, phony numbers so 20% unemployment only looks like 9.1%, the longest deepest recession in history that only happened after the Democratics took over the House and Senate and cratered after Il Duce took over.
Spending increasing at 8% per year while the economy is growing at 2% even after 7% inflation. (real, not excluding energy and food)

Like the $100 a pound Kobe Steaks the White House is so fond of?

Newsweek sold for one dollar, they probably can’t afford more than 8 photos.

She’s probably tired and worn out from visiting 57 States, and know she has 2 more to visit. Plus all the effort to learn how to speak Austrian. 

Its not so much how she looks that makes us think shes crazy……When she opens her mouth she removes all doubt

You evaded my question.  I guess that’s the answer.

It’s amazing that the news media in CF/Waterloo didn’t cover any connection between CF and Gacy when it happened.

That RACCOON EYELINER isn’t helping matters; who needs a photo when her WORDS are crazy enough

What would you know, you’re a three bagger and coyote ugly on top of it.

Newsweek=FAIL. 

There isnt any

So in other words, repeating a piece of information that wasn’t fact-checked and calling for a witch hunt in congress is ok with you.

Yet another reason why I left the GOP. I just couldn’t drink the Kool-Aid and pretend that someone that incompetent was “presidential.”

On his worst day Obama is still preferable to every single one of the tea party-pandering, climate change-denying, fact-challenged wingnuts running for the GOP nomination.

Actually….Theres hardly ever a defense available

Um the proof is when she opens her mouth …shes nuts!

This isn’t about getting Obama re-elected.  We’re not to that point yet.

This is about getting Romney (or, less likely, Perry) nominated instead of Bachmann.

Actually the national debt went up 20% under bush and 9% under Obama. Don’t believe me? Google it.

liberalism is a sick twisted mental disorder that has brought the usa to the brink of destruction and with the help of the traitors in warshington and the war criminal who is currently defiling the white house, their goal to total destruction and reorganization of this country has almost been realized.  The american hating traitors in the democ rat party are licking their bloody fangs in anticipation of the death of america.

Don’t have have to be batshit crazy to believe that you can be president of the United States? It’s like those crazy folks who think God talks to them. This bitch is crazy!

If Newsweek published them all, again you’d see the real villain:  Her plastic surgion, who has stretched her so tight her face meets in the back, and pumped her so full of Botox that her eyes won’t close.

Well, the presidents family is a fair target, you can’t blame oxycon. They choose to be there and they are black after all.

You sound like one of those white trash, redneck, peckerwoods I keep hearing about. 

she’s tired and worn out all right.

who’s drank the Kool Aid now? lolz  I love right-wing conspiracy blowhards, so cute.

The woman was making almost $400k/year before she left her job so her husband could run for President. I think she’d do just fine w/o the White House budget.

Did you say the same about ex-libarian Laura Bush?

That’s right, you just heard it on Rush, so it must be true.

Christopher answers his own question on why that particular photo, out of probably dozens:

“That’s why they take so many shots, so that they (or their editors) can select the one that best conveys the truth of the moment.”

I must be blind, but I see nothing wrong with the Newsweek picture. It’s just a picture. Some are better than others, and people can disagree about which one is good, and which is not. It is hardly a political statement.

This is the first time in my life I have defended Newsweek.

I think they were fairly wealthy to begin with. And somewhat famous. I think this lifestyle was a step down. As I recall, Ms. Bush Jr. led a pretty good lifestyle, daughters even drove Range Rovers and traveled. 

Have I already said this?  Did she not get “kill rights” for photos on the cover.  That means you can choose which picture you would accept.  She is a lawyer — isn’t she?

But she has crazy eyes in videos of her. Can’t hide from the video camera. Has anyone seen her pupils change shape or dilate? It’s creepy like devil eyes that don’t close and pinpoint you and follow you. eekkk. 

So she’s crazy TO YOU. Fair enough, but don’t label it as anything but your opinion.

Liberals have a hard time separating fact from opinion. 

Here’s my challenge to… well, anyone… find a photo of her where she DOESN’T look wild-eyed and crazy. I’ve yet to see one. Truth is, she’s got kinda strange eyes. 

Shall I give you a list of Democrats who referenced media articles that later turned out to not be factual?

We can start with the whole CBC Tea Party racial slur, which never actually happened.

No, it’s business as usual for the Democrats. Claiming S&P blamed the Tea Party for the downgrade and then threatening to investigate their practices is pretty much the same thing, and has far broader consequences than what Bachmann did.

Perhaps where you come from, but in a majority of America, the exact opposite is true.

Funny how libs project the “fact challenged” meme on issues where facts contradict their deeply held beliefs (climate change).

 yet not a word about two unfunded wars & wasted nation Building. The Tea Party is a bunch of simple minded, selective outrage, flag-waving hypocrites. I’ve little respect for BO, but absolutely none for you Nazi’s.

If it’s on the internet, it must be true.

Fact is, the deficit will have increased more in Obama’s first three years than the entire Bush era combined, more than the combined debt of every president from Washington to Reagan. Look THAT up.

Why should he be equally critical? Libs are rank hypocrites, why not those on the right?

Why should he be equally critical? Libs are rank hypocrites, why not those on the right?

And what was the alternative?  Republicans elected Bush, who had failed at every business venture he started, the Texas Rangers was just a gift to get a stadium…Then McCain, and his experience was??? Maybe the S&L scandle out of Arizona, abandonment of his wife after her accident.  If Republicans nominated someone decent maybe, but Obama is heads above everyone I have seen running on the Republican side so far.

seriously?  She doesn’t have a white house staff, she’s a congresswoman.  They sourced it wrong, who cares.  CNN and NYT do this all the time, you expect more due diligence in a talking point.  The Pres. makes errors in political talking points all the time, usually to mislead.  That’s politics, I don’t call him crazy.   

None of this is true. Read more (or less).

Face it, they hired a crappy Photographer and do not want to admit it.  They obviously also have bad judgement in editing when they want to.  I would hate to have a credit line for any of those photos if I shot them, it would make me look like a terrible photographer. Never hire a photographer you can not trust or even let them photograph you in the first place.
As for the compilation of images. . . . let’s see a collection of Michelle Obama and her fatty fat fat butt and looking like a screaming gor and Obama looking like the incompetent fool that he has turned out to be.  That would be more fun to look at then this weak argument from a Lefty Hater trying to cover for the Liberal HATE Mongers at Newsweek.

Yes, you can. Pres. Obama did absolutely nothing as either senator or state senator and is a disaster as president.  Do I prefer more of the same with Bachmann?  No. I’m hoping for a former governor to win.  How democrats chose Obama over Hillary remains a mystery to me.   A good speech maker is rarely a good leader…

Perfectly acceptable to disagree strongly with Bachmann for her positions. But liberals can’t seem to understand the concept of respectful disagreement. No, she’s gotta be crazy, hateful or some other personal attack. Yeah, I know some on the right do the same thing, but it’s a far smaller percentage and far less tolerated by the majority (see birtherism).

The financial benefits of being president come after you leave office. Clinton has probably made more in the last 10 years than his entire legal/political career before 1992.

Google “LOL WHY U MAD THO” …

Tar Baby wasn’t racist in that context, neither was “boy” as used by Buchannan and there’s no proof Joe Walsh owes anything to his ex-wife outside her baseless charges. Again, a liberal wants his opinions reported on as fact.

Show me proof of the selective coverage  (study, non partisan analysis, etc) and you’ll get an answer.

Your conjecture does not require one.

he said respectable…

BINGO

Newsweek has made a choice to pander to a far left piece of the American public because it cannot survive anymore as a straight news magazine. MSNBC did the same thing, deciding it was wiser to pander to a small group of people in hopes of finishing second to FOX regularly than to do straight news and finish fourth.

All the idiocy you hear coming from Matthews, O’Donnell and (well mostly) Maddow is stuff they know is BS, but they need to pander to their audience. I think Matthews looks in the mirror after every show and says to himself “I can’t believe I said that out loud and on the air”.

It’s robotic commitments to talking points like this that is dooming the left. 

Really?  There is a nationally published, right wing periodical that has published “bad photos” of Michelle?  Can link those please so we can denounce them?

Yeah, we’ve got all the rallies, where we flash / carry the guns, do the stompings, promote all the fear, hate and hold up all the nice pretty signs! Praise the Lord.

Go Woody!

That’s a lie. Many stayed with her for months. Most were special needs (mental issues) that no one else would take.

She does not hate homosexuals, she hates homosexuality, which every Christian is compelled by scripture to hate. Can’t stand to see people claiming to be Christian and accepting of something the religion considers an abomination. You gotta choose. I chose to reject Christianity.

Did you not read TC’s piece? These weren’t their only choices.

I don’t think you were ever in the GOP. Cause I would have left it screaming. We have literacy and history tests before you can join lol

You do know that’s not true!? That’s just another “tea” lie that caught on. (just check) The sad thing is, even when proven “teas” don’t change the “lie”!

You should move to London or Greece,you know that’s where your heart is

it’s because so many of you righties are gay- it’s not a syndrome- it’s the truth- you’re probably gay too.

Which office is she running for?

No facts please!

Factcheck.org has debunked this. Stop believing everything you see on FUX news. Your brain is rotting

cuckoo…cuckoo….

yeah, like toe-tappin’ in the men’s room is with Repugs….

yeah, like toe-tappin’ in the men’s room is with Repugs….

 You’re an idiot dude….She was making 350-400k a year a job she picked up shortly after her Husband got elected as a Senator.  Before that she was making 100k a year. 250K increase in pay in one year?   Oh yea…and then we she left the job for first lady her very important 350k job was eliminated without a backfill. Do find that the least bit odd…or did you get a complete lobotomy?   What I can say about Laura Bush is that unlike the current first lady..she wasn’t using her husband’s status or political pull in order to bilk private organizations out of BS 350k a year jobs that they create especially for her.

I’m not a supporter of Obama, but don’t do a Michele Bachmann, Do the math before making the statement that he has spent more money than all the presidents before him. This is not rocket science.

You are a truly revolting piece of human trash and waste. Crawl back to the repulsive sewer you came from and take your family with your, you contemptible excrement.

here’s a website named “google” to help you in the future.  I’ve already typed the search terms in for you on this one.  Isn’t hard to breathe with your head jammed in there?

Again, just more lib bias and hypocrisy.

You can go to a few ”tea” sites and get all the negative hit pics you want of Pelosi. Just check Tea Central “Fox”!

CNN Poll: GOP’s DisapprovalRating Hits 59 Percent

Read it and weep, Repug

Spay… I’m reply to yours but this is really for “lastbrain”… however there’s no reply button showing under his nested post. 

LastBrain, first off… that fact is on the Internet, but that doesn’t mean it originates there. This was just reported in the Boston Globe: http://goo.gl/F5j0z

 I know, I know… “if it ain’t on Fox, it must be liberal media B.S.”  But then you can ask where they got it from, which would be the following sources: 

The Department of the Treasury, The Financial Management SErvice, the Bureau of the Public Debt, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Office of Management and Budget, the Commerce Department, and — lest you should counter with a slam that it’s obviously liberal appointees spinning the numbers too — the Bipartisan Policy Center.

However, Spay made a mistake. 

He said that Bush added 20% to the National Debt. That’s being awfully kind. Bush actually added $6.1 trillion to what is now a $14.3 trillion debt. I don’t know how good you are with math or calculators, so I’ll help you with that one — that’s more than 42% of the total. Not to mention, more than Reagan, Bush Sr., and Clinton’s spending combined. And just over 2.5 times more than Obama.

Did Obama do some of his own damage? Yep… he’s piled on $2.4 trillion so far. Reagan, who rarely gets as much credit as a big spender as he should (though, fairly, also doesn’t get credit for aggressively saving Social Security the way he did) added $1.9 trillion to the debt. Bush Sr. added $1.5 trillion. And Clinton piled on $1.4 trillion. Though, the latter also famously got our deficit — the amount of spending each year — down to zero. 

This is partly why your crowd was crowing that “deficits don’t matter” when they had a Republican in the White House (http://goo.gl/wGLdE)… though, of course, they’ve since changed that tune. Suddenly, a high deficit for them is the crime of the century (the crime of blowing trillions on two unjustified wars and generous tax payoffs for the rich during being inconsequential). 

Of course, it’s clear to anybody with a brain that deficits DO matter. Had we “stayed the course” (to borrow another Bush phrase) that Clinton set out, we could have had this entire National Debt paid off by 2009. That’s math too, my friend. 

Look it up.

While you’re at it, confirm this for yourself (no need to confirm it for anybody else, because we can all go to the sources mentioned above and get this publicly available and verified information): 

When you look at the % increase to the ratio of debt-to-GDP (a key measure of the financial health of any country, accepted by most economists regardless of party background), Obama again is hardly the biggest offender. Let’s take a look together, shall we?

% Amount Added to debt-to-GDP ratio:
(The lower the number added, the better)

Reagan, + 20%
Bush Sr., +13%
Clinton, -10%
Bush Jr, +28%
Obama, +9%

Notice anything? Yes, yet again, Bush Jr. takes the prize as top spender. Add to this the fact that the debt ceiling was raised not just once during Bush’s term but five times under Bush. And Republicans voted to raise it SEVEN times during Bush’s two terms. 

You can call this liberal spin or whatever you want. 

But these are the numbers. And if the reason you hate Obama is because you think he spends too much or the debt is too high, then it’s dishonest for you to claim that as the cause without putting Bush at the front of your line as the premier offender. Plain and simple. He may very well be long gone from office, but all those costs and the impact they’ve wrought are still very much and very obviously with us.

Likewise, go ahead and rebuff… but not without “disproving” that Reagan nearly tripled the National Debt… that Dubya really did double it… that there’s not a lick of proof that Bush’s radically expensive tax cuts paid for themselves or created jobs… and that, even now with Federal taxes at their lowest in 60 years, tax cuts aren’t spurring the economy. And will highly likely both create another 10 years of soaring debt AND force several more increases in the debt ceiling. 

In fact, the further tax cuts that Ryan and crowd wanted would add another $4 trillion to the debt… all of which, no doubt, they would also blame on Obama! You people are outrageous.

As for this statement: 

“Fact is, the deficit will have increased more in Obama’s first three years than the entire Bush era combined, more than the combined debt of every president from Washington to Reagan. Look THAT up.” 

What the hell does that even mean? You do understand that the debt and the deficit are different things, right? Deficits are the year to year borrowing, the Debt is the accumulation of those years of borrowing. And as we’ve already seen, Bush Jr. alone spend more in his term than double all the spending that preceded him. For Obama to spend more than Bush did, he would have to multiply his current total spending by 250%. Are Obama’s deficits — that is, his annual borrowing — higher than Bush’s? Yes they are. But pushing aside the “deficits don’t matter” Cheney quote, how could today’s deficit not be large, given that the nation is trying desperately to buy its way out of the 2008 market crash property collapse, Iraq and Afghanistan, and several years of very weak job creation (all of which occurred under, yes, Bush… along with the first giant bailout and the start of the Great Recession, which in pure technical terms, ended early into, yes, Obama’s term. If you want to match numbers, try matching Obama and Bush on job creation… we’re still deep in the soft employment hole, but Obama has created more jobs in his two years and change (not three yet) than Bush did in all eight. This too is a fact. As you would say, “look THAT up.”

I suppose that’s one better than your ilk… who seems to have a hard time finding facts, period.

Newsweek could have pulled a still photo from the New Hampshire debates. Regardless, Bachmann will be done as soon as Perry enters the race. While the straw poll is held in Iowa on Saturday, all the attention is going to be on South Carolina where Perry will be. This is a nighmare scenerio for Bachmann. Regardless, she had no chance of winning the nomination. If she did, Obama, as he did against McCain, would have floated thousands of negative adds against Bachmann and there are plenty of them to show that she’s a liar, gaff prone and has little sense of history. That would be the only way that Obama would stand a chance of being
re-elected.

Why would a US legislator use statistics from and Indian newspaper? All her staff had to do was make a phone call. There’s such a thing as willful ignorance.

A fair article from Tommy Christopher.  I’m impressed.  May this show up more often, Tommy.

Bachmann pulls the same crap and so do you. Like when you post that the left is far less capable of respectable disagreement than the right.

Outlaw the T-Party, send their reps to gitmo

Since the T-Party has no problem taking down the US economy along with the world economy it is time to see the danger to America in these actions.  By Executive order and Homeland Security outlaw actions leading to taking the economy hostage, arrest Reps in Congress for their actions, outlaw proponents of T-Party.

Shes hot as an older woman but incapable of running a country since she only cares about the christian far right.

I hope those aren’t part of her husband’s clinic.  I was straight, but those photos made me gay.

You left the GOP because we have no use for phag gots like you.

No doubt you want to blow the incompetent CrackheadClown.

Liberalism is a Mental Disorder.  Watching the leftist idiots make themselves look even more ridiculous is a real treat.  After what, 4 years of the Age of Obummer Halo pictures this is all they got?  Seriously, weak and feeble minded sheeple on the left..

We are AWAKE and you had better find a rock to climb under fool.

What about a heterosexual man who is married to a fat, ugly hair*ss lesbian like hillary clinton>

Nothing hates like a homoNazi

You were NEVER in the GOP, but Liberals always Lie about everything anyway….

EX GOP my arse…  Liar liar pants on fire…

Youre a typicval Lib.  Really really stoopid…

Anyone that doesnt believe we are headed directly at a Civil War look no further than the replies on any msg board.  The sh}t is going to hit the fan soon,and the Libs will PAY a huge price for their hatred of Freedom, individual Liberty and the United States of America.  Tick effin Tock…  Lock and Load…

are you insane?

Bachmann is not the tea party..she is the “we” party and her and Marcus take everything they can from government.. name grabber.. that’s all she is.. old guard pushed.. she jumps parties like Marcus would jump on a … well.. No, if she even knows what Tea tastes like..im sure there is plenty of milk and sugar to dilute it…

What can you expect from an ex-democrat?

And they all jumped in to make your point for you. :)

Big deal. Have the time Obama looks stoned (or drunk) when giving a speech, a condition that seems favorable to most of the media. Although in all fairness, they did publish a photo cover profile of Michelle O. a while back thats gives Bachman’s “crazy” stare a run for it’s money.

I like the photo where her hands are in prayer and she is staring into God’s eyes hanging on every word.
The Tea Party should copyright that one.
How inspiring!

Go home.  Fox Nation is missing you..

God you’re a racist.  Your posts reek of racism.  The Obama’s were millionaires a few times over before they won the WH.  What a scumbag.

Obama has made millions off his 2 books alone.  You just see black skin and think mooch.

yet here we are in a thread where people are talking about Michelle Obama living a lifestyle she’s never had before and being a mooch because she gets to live high on the hog at the tax payers expense.

That’s called a stump speech; all candidates repeat their stump speeches, even the O child, his teleprompter tells him the same story at every stop.

As far as her eyes, perhaps also her voice, she has migraines and medication, went through it myself and it is my opinion that the glaring lights and meds are causing some problems with photo shoots.  I suspect some of her photos are taken as she is in the early stages of a migraine, there were several stages with mine, as they progress you do not want your eyes open at all. 

So, give her a break, I didn’t have the energy to do what she is doing now when plagued with that horrible pain, thankfully they aren’t an everyday event, nor scheduled, so she is pretty tough to be out on the campaign trail everyday.

That would be very American!!!!!

You sir are an idiot!

Anyone who follows a scripture that they believe compels them to hate is frankly, nuts.

“The problem is that news photographers (really, all photographers) use
rapid-fire cameras that take several shots per second, which results in a
large selection of each pose.”

This is exactly what I pointed out yesterday on this story. Every response I got was contrary to that, however it appears that I did know what I was talking about as the author here repeated it. I have been an amateur photographer for over 40 years and I happen to have a great deal of experience with professional level cameras up to the current state of the art.

I will accept all apologies from those of you who denied my statement as true and factual now.

I question the sanity of anyone who doesn’t believe that congress of the USA needs to be investigated and investigated very intensely.  These are the boobs who are stealing your country, man.  Don’t you believe in justice?

Spoken like a True Tea Partier.  I will say this much…Michelle Bachmann is not the ONLY Crazy Wingnut in the GOP.

IOKIYAR

Do you have a baine of your own, or do you just spew Democrat Party talking points?  This country is bankrupt.  Democrats seem to believe that if you’re bankrupt, you borrow more money to spend.  If  that makes me an idiot in the eyes of most Obama lovers, then I’m an idiot.  That simple idea of not spending money that you don’t have is beyond the intelligence level of the average Democrat.  How pathetic.

Typo….I meant to say brain.

So she’s got crazy googly eyes – Obama’s got big ears. So far crazy googly eyes is winning by not having wrecked the country so maybe crazy googly eyes has a chance. Pelosi’s a one woman I hate America wrecking ball and it’s a toss up whether it’d be more scary to open your door at midnight to her face or an evil clown. If you had 23 kids you might have enthusiastic eyes too.

Wow, is this place still as stupid as ever?

Did disqus take over the censor nazi, lizzy???

Kevin99 said to outlaw the TEA Party.  If Kevin99 was a true American he’d say to outlaw the seditious anti-Constitutional politicians in the Senate, Congress (especially the Communist inspired “Progressives), and he President himself.  We have a  5th Column in government that is intent on overthrowing the Constitution one little bit at a time.  One party, the Democrats would rather have a society based on what Vladimir Lenin put into practice.  The other party, the Republicans, mostly sits on their hands and allows the sedition to progress?  As with most Socialistic governments, our left-wing politicians feel that they can improve on what Vladimir Lenin started.  THAT is a daydream which is an impossibility to achieve.  The typical Socialistic / Communistic society is one where everybody is equal…equally miserable except for the politicians and “special” political groups.  Somehow, the voters who continue to keep the “Professional” politicians in office never seem to “get it.”  In a sense, the American voters will have the government that they deserve.  Considering the stupidity of about 50% of the voters in this country who put Obama into office, it’s possible that the Constitution will become a thing of the past.  Buy your guns and ammo while you can.   We may need it!

Newsweek had an ax to grind. My wife is a photographer and the 1st thing she would have done is photoshop around the eyes to soften the look. They probably do that with many of the pics of individuals that they want to portray in a positive way. She laughed at the pics because you would only want to show those to demean her.

The founding fathers fought hard to abolish slavery? This psycho teabag is crazy! Pray the gay away, we should investigate members of congress to determine patriotism? Shall I continue? Or are u crazy too?

Bachmann got some free advertisement today. So many places to post my own commentary and this is the best forum. My father-in-law used to say ”any publicity, no matter what the source, is still publicity”. He was right! Bachmann received publicity from this Newsweek publication and I predict many will use this pic on their dart boards, target practice ranges and even bird cages. Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina are in play in November 2012 and as such will make or break this woman’s possible candidacy. I think, therefore I could never vote for this one!

She not only “looks” crazy, she “is” crazy, just the way the Tea Baggers want her.

That’s it…journalism has permanently swirled the bowl.  Note to self:  cancel Newsweek subscription.

I think it’s printed more to not to get Bachmann elected rather than get Obama reelected. 

But seriously, would a man be as offended?  Would he worry about the lighting and the wrong angle?  Just a thought.

The Fact of the Matter is, no matter how the worthless, going broke liberal magazine, Newsweek, portrays Ms Backmann, the fact is, she or any other Conservative would do a much better job than Obama, anyone!  Hell, my pet pig, Mohammud, would do a better job!  And he could bring his buddy, Allah, along.  Barry is the Worst President in American History!  Even Jimah Carter was a better President, and at least Jimah believed in the True God of the Christians and Jews.  Obama certainly doesn’t.  He goes to church when he thinks it will help him politcally.  Anyone But the Fool, B. Hussein Obama, in 2012!

I think the phrase I’m looking for here is “tempest in a teapot.” Or “Tina Brown is a know opportunist.”

Or, “who gives a rat’s patoot?”

(I can’t believe no one has used “tempest in a teapot” yet, but it didn’t come up in a text search.)

@ Jeffrey Don Davis Obviously, one must be a flaming bigot to be a part of the GOP. You have shown your qualifications!

You are nuts.

Like Bachmann’s claim that “the founding fathers worked tirelessly to end slavery” when in fact they determined that blacks only counted for 3/5′s a person and that they created the documents that kept anyone from voting except for men who were property holders. They did nothing to abolish slavery and if Bachmann had gone to regular schools instead of religious institutions who don’t really try to teach real history- only religion- she might have a better grasp of the real history of the US. As it is, she will not be allowed to rewrite our history any more than her dumb butt friend Palin. Both of them have made such stupid statements and have no clue. They are an embarrassment to all women. 

NOM stands up for women of all political persuasions when they are portrayed or treated in a sexist or belittling way. In this particular case, I didn’t think it was warranted. Bachmann looks crazed all the time. 

I know, you can’t.

Tommy, Mediaite and this article were all highlighted on Fox and Friends this morning.

@ progressive kitty@Byrnie:disqus 
Reading comprehension can be your friend.   If you review what I wrote, I said nothing about Obama’s two autobiographies (who write two books about themselves btw?) and was talking specifically about Michelle’s BS 350k per year job she picked up RIGHT AFTER HER HUSBAND WAS ELECTED SENATOR.  Then the job mysteriously was no longer a requirement when she left for Washington.
 
Does this sound even mildly shady to you.  If it doesn’t, my only question to you is what flavor are you drinking…orange or fruit punch?

Oh joy…here we go yet again with another tired round of unsubstantiated accusations of racism.

Hey Kitty,

By the way, I just paiid $21.87 for an i P a d 2-64GB and my girlfriend loves her Panasonic Lumix GF 1 Camera that we got for $38.76 there arriving tomorrow by UPS. I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LED TV to my boss for $657 which only cost me $62.81 to buy. Here is the website we use to get it all from, BidsFirst.com
 

Absolutely; she is a nut. But this article is correct; they would have had Tens or hundreds of photos to choose from. They did a shitty thing here, no doubt. As jon Stewart said, her words are enough to show her lunacy; there’s no need to do this to her appearance. She’s already said so many things that automatically disqualify her from ever being a general election candidate.

There’s nothing in the Constitution that says “blacks” count as 3/5ths of a person:  “Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.”  If you’re going to bash the Constitution, then at least learn what it actually says.

Regardless, the worst part of you statement is the obvious cluelessness about the 3/5ths compromise.  Try to get this through your skull:  the 3/5 compromise was not a statement about race or a denigration of black people.  It was an attempt to politically limit the power of the slave holding states by not counting the slaves as equal to freed people.  Without it, the slave holding states would have had *greater* political power and those same states could have increased their political power by importing or creating new slaves.  Is your complaint that the slave-holding states should had greater political power and an incentive to hold more slaves?

Ironically, you make these statements in an effort to refute someone else’s education.

Bob, “Why should I pay money for garbage that they spew out to an unsuspecting American public.”  

Leaving aside the missing question mark, why should you pay money for garbage when Fox offers it as part of the standard cable package?

Nonsense Vicky33!

Mitch, 
Your comments have absolutely no substance.  You’ve been smoking too much weed!!

Well said!! They are both “a hot mess”, and have absolutely no business in politics.  I never know what the F@#k Palin is talking about.  She makes no sense, and has no real solutions.  Let’s get to the heart of why folks don’t like Obama—you should all check yourselves, and your racist ways!!

Plain and Simple, It’s her face, if you don’t like it, don’t look at her.

few are as witty as yew.
