Bachmann: ‘No Question’ Obama Is Worst President in History

By

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) appeared on the conservative “Ben Shapiro Show” yesterday and assessed president Obama’s place in history among his 42 predecessors.

“Is President Obama better or worse than Jimmy Carter?” Shapiro asked.

“Worse. Easily worse,” responded Bachmann.

Shapiro continued, “I agree. So far, you’d have to say he’s the worst president in United States history.” Bachmann agreed, “No question. No question.”

She continued: “And the thing is, here we are, people can’t wait until November. They’re practically lining up for polls now, they can’t wait to go out and vote. The only thing is people wish Barack Obama was up for re-election right now, because they’d honestly love to have a chance to throw him out of office. Everywhere I go, people ask me, ‘Michele, can we impeach the president?’ They want a referendum on him. I also had someone today say, ‘There’s no way he’ll run for a second term. No way. No one would vote for him.’ I don’t know if the White House understands how the floor has dropped out under support for this president.”

Shapiro later asked, “Michele, would you ever consider running for president?”

Bachmann deflected the question, instead invoking Israel in referring to her re-election fight this year.

You know it’s not what I’m doing right now. I’m one of speaker Pelosi’s top targets this fall, so all I’m focused on this fall for 2010 is making sure that I win. Speaker Pelosi is very clear that she wants to take me out of the election this fall. This will be a very expensive race. Very hard fought. It’s already hard fought. I come from a very difficult territory. I’m from Al Franken territory… I come from a very tough neighborhood, Israel knows all about tough neighborhoods.

That Pelosi is personally targeting Bachmann is a claim the Star Tribune called “grossly misleading” back in January.

michele bachmann is the only good thing about minnesota. this state and most cities are totally controlled by liberal deomcrats. yearly we watch the taxes go up for all the green bicyclists and then we had jim oberstar blame the republicans for the 35W bridge collapse when it was he and the rest of ;iberal democrats that allowed the original desing to be built and overlooked inspecters reports that the bridge was in danger before it collapsed. GO Michele and please recruit more politicna just like you. we need to vote out franken and klobuchar fast if not sooner!

Pelosi knows she is on the way out and with the November elections, her power will be significantly reduced. It is unfortunate that when drowning crones like Pelosi realize they are on a losing streak, they try to do as much damage as possible. Bachman is like a breath of fresh air in the Washington political cesspool.

Obama is worse than inept and clueless. As a president, he can't lead a one-man paradee. He sides with those who wish ill on the United States (Russia, Palestinians, Chavez and the Honduran dictator whom the Hondurans legally ousted), and then sticks his finger in the eyes of our real friends (Israel, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Georgia). He'sd just screwed the hell out of folks in the Gulf and the flood victims of Tennessee – did he eveen reespond with condolences to them? Nope, I don't think so. They must be Republicans in those districts. He's told Arizonans he's against them. Honestly, what kind of man is this, much less president. He's dispicable. He's an embarrassment. The people who voteed for him – who fell for his lies – owe all of America an apology and a reesponsibility to eeducate themselves before they step into a voting booth again.

Michelle is not only a women of honor but a true American who cares about the direction this country is being led into. Obama or who ever name he goes by now, is destroying the freedom that men and women have died for. People in here need to remember those young people out there fighting for this country. I wish we had more honest leaders in office like Michelle B. I pray the day comes when God and our country is back the way our Founders worked for it to be. Our service men and women deserve to come home to better then what this administration is jamming down our throats,,,the numbers show we dont want this,,,,they ignore our wishes and yet they now are sending millions of more dollars into the hands of our terrorists,,,,we need him stopped,,,,we need more leaders like Michelle…we all need to pull together and learn the truth and get our country back…please.

Archie1954,

I of course didn't mean to lump you in w/ the rest of these cranks and toilers. There must be, in her part of Minnesota, something in the water. How can it send folk like Al Franken (after seeing him draw a map of the U.S. freehand, I respect him all the more), Amy Klobuchar AND Michelle Bachmann to D.C.? Franken and Klobuchar bring class from those who live in their district. Bachmann just brings disrepute (and uncontrollable laughter to the nation) to hers. What are the people in her district smoking, anyway?

If Pelosi goes, she'll be replaced with someone who is as she is, grounded in reality.
“Bachmann is like a breath of fresh air in the Washington cesspool”.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

She IS what makes it a cesspool!

Maybe you can't tell the difference between truth and hypocrisy. That's a Republican disease. Don't try to convince anyone otherwise. How do you like PAYING for a party that has done absolutely NOTHING in a year and a half, while the country suffers because of Bush- (by MULTIPLE polls, voted THE worst President in American history) era mismanagement?

Bachmann trying to turn that around with Fox noise tactics tells me just how politically, morally, ethically and mentally bankrupt the right really is.

for sure the idiot that has made bad comments about M.Bachmann, is an obammy lover and has his/her head up their anus. what i have discovered is that most idiots that voted for obammy are from the younger generation and their parents failed by not teaching their children about american history. in the end we will all be saying to them: ' we told you so”. i just hope that obama and his crew are impeached before we even get to vote in nov. 2010.

Seems the one with the head up the anus is anyone who thinks a nutcase like Bachmann can convince anyone (except the weak-minded) of the hypocrisy she lives with on a daily basis.

Her “god” talks to her on a daily basis? Her “god” must be truly f****d up if hypocrisy is the only thing he's telling her to speak. Didn't Jesus rail against that sort of thing? Oh, I forgot…..Jesus doesn't talk to her…..Just her effed-up “god”.

She knows no more about American history than what the cranks at Fox noise regurgitate. Making up stuff doesn't count.

Impeached? BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! For what? Do you even know? Hasn't your precious Bachmann told you yet? I guess her “god” hasn't told HER, yet.

Do you even know what hypocrisy IS?

1. What is a “paradee”?

2. Relations with Russia have noticeably cooled since Obama took office. Don't you read the newspapers?

3. Sorry, but what happened in Honduras is called a “coup” in most places.

4. Since when has America sided with Hugo Chavez on anything?

5. “Czechoslovakia” ceased to exist almost twenty years ago.

6. The President has visited the Gulf four times, including twice in the last week.

7. The Governor of Tennessee said that the Obama administration had responded better to the Nashville flooding than any previous administration to a natural disaster in his state. http://whitehouse.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/05/06/…

8. The President opposes a law in Arizona that is not only blatantly racist, but unconstitutional. Also, not everyone in Arizona supports the law.

9. It's spelled “despicable.”

10. I'm not apologizing for a goddamn thing, especially to someone who can't spell common words like “parade,” “despicable,” “respond,” “responsibility,” and “educate.”

Up next is amnesty for “UNDOCUMENTED DEMOCRATS” to keep the LIBERALS in office and then coming next is Michelle Obama's “Obsession with Americans Weight Campaign” to control what the American people eat and what they feed their kids! Enough is ENOUGH!! IMPEACH THE COMMUNIST BASTARD, ALREADY!! We are not dreaming….this is the AMERICAN NIGHTMARE! Hope you have a nice CONSERVATIVE day! : ) Sue

That's all you can regurgitate is Republican fear-mongering talking points?

O.K., let's see how YOU would do it. It's easy to parrot nonsense, but not so easy to solve the problem.
BTW, President Obama just signed a bill allowing funds for more enforcement at the southern border.

What about the ones already here, hmmmm? Or are you going to throw up the “anchor baby” racism again, like the Repubs are doing? Where were THEY for the last four or five decades on this matter? They were in power a number of times since then, but all you can spout is how President Obama must be impeached? Why him, all of a sudden?
You want to impeach Obama, put Dubya there, too. what you going to do about him? I say he should be brought up on charges. His father too. And Reagan, and Nixon, posthumously.

Get your head out, before you expose us to your ignorance. You'll look much smarter that way.
