Appearing on Chris Matthews' show "Hardball," Minnesota Representative Michelle Bachmann stated that Barack Obama has a leftist, liberal, and anti-American agenda. She called for the media to launch a thorough investigation of Congress to identify those who are anti-American - namely, anyone whose views are different than hers. Matthews succeeded in manipulating Bachmann into saying that those members of Congress, including Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, who are liberals are anti-American. Apparently Bachmann missed the signifiance of the title of Matthews' show, and was un-prepared for him to play hardball.
A private individual has launched a campaign to call for Congress to censure Rep. Bachmann because of her remarks. Visit http://www.censurebachmann.com to see the video of Bachmann's appearance on "Hardball" and to sign the petition to call for Congress to censure her.
UPDATE 3: censurebachmann.com has 47,887 signatures so far - updated 10/20 12:44 p.m.
UPDATE: Even better than signing a petition to censure Bachmann, why not donate to her opponent? Go here: http://www.tinklenberg08.com/
UPDATE 2: Here is The Nation magazine editor Katrina Vanden Heuvel responding to Bachmann's remarks to Chris Matthews: (and also a little Pat Buchanan)
