Ostracize Josh

A man from Rogers, Minnesota…a small town in the Sixth Congressional District represented by Michele Bachmann…went through the trouble of strapping on his Glock .40 caliber handgun and dropping his Kel Tec 380 in his pocket before visiting the site of President Obama’s talk last Saturday in Minneapolis. His name is Josh Hendrickson and both handguns were loaded.

He went to the speech to stand outside and show off his cammo and his guns. The press took note and had a chat with him. Hendrickson told them, “I’m a pretty laid-back guy that loves his kids and his country.”

Hendrickson was released from jail about a month ago after serving for an assault charge. …

Obama vs. Bachmann Head to Head (Obama wins)

If you were in the Twin Cities last Saturday and wanted to do something political, you had two choices. Tool over to St. Cloud and visit Michele Bachmann’s Town Hall meeting, which she rudely scheduled on the same day as a visit to Minneapolis by President Obama. Or, you could go to see President Obama.

Rep. Michele Bachmann was in St. Cloud on Saturday for a town hall meeting. Apparently quite a few people in her district just don’t care about her anymore. Her event at the St. Cloud Technical High School was attended by only 60 people!

In contrast, 18,000 people were at the Target Center to listen to President Obama’s speech and he had to compete with the Gopher’s first home game in their new stadium!

Bachmann’s Town Hall

I did not go to the Michele Bachmann “town hall” meeting yesterday because of a schedule conflict (I was out of town) but there is some news. Check out the last few posts on Dump Michele Bachmann blog. There is evidence, apparently, that Bachmann supporters were bussed in to pack the room. I’ve heard from two other private sources, one from inside and one from outside, that there were mostly supporters inside and mostly anti-Bachmann people outside.

I expect there to be a couple of good blog posts out about this in the next day or so, and I’ll point to them if I find out about them. Add any to the comments below, please.

I also expect that most of the people inside the hall were Dittohead Lockstep Republicans and most of the people outside the hall were Discordant Democrats.

Michele Bachmann will hold “Health Care Town Hall”

I’m calling all my friends, we’re going to get on a bus, we’re going to go to Michele Bachmann’s health care town hall and SCREAM AT HER FOR AN HOUR and make sure no one else can talk. Because THAT’S HOW DEMOCRACY WORKS, BITCHES!!!!

Oh, no, wait, forget it. I read the head line at DMB wrong. It looks like Michele Bachmann is going to have one of those highly controlled events that allow in only her stepford-zombie Bachmann-symps with prepared softball questions. She doesn’t really do the Town Hall thing. Why should she? She’s a Republican. It’s the Democrats that are into Democracy. The Republicans, like those after whom they name themselves, would be happy with a fiddle plaing Caesar.
