find members of Congress, look at the whites of their eyes and say, 'Don't take away my healthcare.'"

Huh?

She's living in a white, upper middle class McMansion world, where everyone gets their healthcare provided by their employer. And if you don't, it's your fault - you should just find a job that provides it!

Palin/Bachmann 2012!

We on the more left-ish end of the spectrum ought to take advantage of this and crowd her wingnut cadres out.

Bachman/Palin 2012! That's a winning ticket.

I believe - and correct me if I'm wrong - that Obama won an election a year or so ago. Bachman apparently is not familiar with the concepts of Democracy.

Why is it that Republicans are the only one's willing to show some guts for their causes. Time after time we liberals allow the Republican's steal the debate with their town halls, tea party protests in washington, and now this. Where are all those support the causes. Liberals need to rise up and start showing these Republican thugs that we stand idly by. Where the hell is our DC protests, and why aren't we storming Congress to ask why Lincoln, Leiberman, et al., are keeping us from getting health care reform.

Most Repuglickcans do not believe in evolution, but at this point, they must believe, and abet, devolution. I can't imagine any large group of americans embracing the political leadership of Bachman/Beck/Palin/Limbaugh. They are obvious ignoranuses, and proud to be so. This is a very bad statement of the American system of education. When things finally settle down, we need to concentrate on instilling critical thinking skills into the oncoming generations. This stuff is too scary to allow to persist.

I for one would not mind walking up and down the halls of Congress with a bunch of wingnuts and looking into the whites of each others' eyes. Truly subversive. Brilliant!

Care to join us?

I am dead serious.

Bachman-Palin-Overdrive? You Ain't seen nothin' yet.

Dems point to the reality and show it needs fixed; Repubs fall back on pandering, out-of-context platitudes and ignore the shortcomings of the insurance industry and lobby.

Ditto to the Thanksgiving reference--even overeating and comfy sofas can't slow conservatives in attack mode who are short on facts and long on rhetoric.

I'd like to show Bachmann what real tyranny is. She doesn't know squat.

Oh, for a suicide vest.

Bonehead is really starting to make people wish Dennie Hasert was still around.

Fuck media corporate for celebrating and legitimizing this fringe, irrational and dangerous culture in politics.

Give Our Little Michelle a hat with a plume, one of those batons the Drum Major carries and have her march her not-so-merry band of tea baggers through the halls of congress. I think it'd make great TV and show the American people what the leaders of the Republican Party are all about.

Back in 1999, the City of Eugene, OR issued a parade permit to a local group of Anarchists to march up one of the town's main streets. Well, when the day arrived, you guessed it, the parade started with a bunch of black-clothed Anarchists running wildly up the street destroying anything they could get their hands on... street furniture, store windows, vehicles, etc. Do you think someone in their City organization could have first scratched their chin and though, "maybe this is a really bad idea."

I can only wonder how the Teabaggers are going to treat the Halls of Congress.

It just gets better and better.

The GOP vaults Sarah Palin into the forefront of their party, only to have her exposed as an ill-prepared, money-grabbing quitter. They deny that Limbaugh and Beck speak for their party, but as soon as one has the temerity to disagree with El Rushbo, they are crawling back, tail neatly tucked between their legs, begging for forgiveness.

And now, they are giving their stamp of approval to Michelle Bachmann, a woman who is teetering on the border of certifiable insanity.

You couldn't make this stuff up!

Ok, I'd like to see Alan Grayson take hundreds of people who the insurance companies screwed and walk them through the halls of Congress.

This is pure insanity and I hope the Sergeant-at-arms can do something about it.

These are pure creations of the media, and I blame all the papers, cable news, networks and even the blogs for offering them so much of a spotlight.

It did nothing to alter public opinion on healthcare, except perhaps to make people back it more strongly.

This is little short of psychotic delusion, and the halls of congress should not host this clown show, when it has never permitted demonstrators on real issues like war this kind of access.

The suggestion is appalling.

The U.S. Capitol Police might have something to say about this.

It just keeps getting better. With these teabagging lunatics leading the way, the GOP has become so lost in the wilderness, they will never find their way out.

Just one answer to this: If they go through with it, then we need to get some folks on our end to go looking for Boehner and Bachmann on another day ... see the whites in their eyes and I guess talk over them.

maybe Bachman is staging a coup.

Looks like these two are frequenting the same tanning salon.

Pelosi and the Democrats should boycott this move by not showing up that day.

The people certainly have a right to petition their government but most of these folks don't think it is their government. It wouldn't hurt for liberals to show up either because the old line about 90% of success is showing up for the job is true in political persuasion as well, particularly if the attendees are from the district or State of the member of Congress.

Gee, do you think they'll be allowed to bring their guns into the Capital building, too?

The entire country is descending into lunacy.

Michelle really needs to take a tissue to that pearl necklace she's always wearing.
