Michele Bachmann Would Like Obama To Stop Shoving Religion Down America’s Throat
She knows some things about The Islam

It is such a tragedy that Rep. Michele Bachmann will soon be retired from Congress and no longer around to edutain all of us, especially President Obama, who doesn’t know anything about anything on all of the world’s religions. Unlike Michele, who is A Expert. And not just on her own religion, which requires her to do whatever Marcus tells her to do because the Bible says he is the boss of her, or even just on Judeo-Christianity, which is basically the same thing plus Israel, and requires that all Jews hate Obama because that’s in the Bible too. Michele also knows about The Islam, which the president does not understand at all, even though his administration is crawling with secret Muslim terrorists, so he should know better. Still, because Obama is not as smart as Bachmann, she has helpfully splained it for him because he is so wrong about everything:

When the president was being the theologian in chief, and he said that this is not Islam, ask that of the head of the Islamic state if what he is doing is about Islam. That’s all this is about. And their dedication is to wipe out western Christiandom as well as Judaism. That is their goal. Or ask Jihadi John, who beheaded Steve Sotloff, and the other photojournalist, James Foley, if this was about Islam. This was exactly done in conformance with their beliefs, not ours. With the jihadist beliefs and view of Islam.

So number one, the president’s falsely stated that this was not what Islam looks like, or the motivation wasn’t Islam, it exactly is. The president was completely wrong.


Don’t we all feel much smarter now that we understand Islam equals terrorism because sometimes people do terrorism in the name of their religion, which means they speak for the billion plus people on the planet who adhere to that religion? That’s a quick and handy fact to know the next time a self-proclaimed Christian does some terrorism (like, say, killing an abortion doctor, just for example), so we can all point and say that obviously this is the goal of Christianity, because Michele Bachmman said so.

embarrassment for us folks who used to or live in Mn 6. Many of us have met or know her or know her background as to how she attained her Congressional Seat. And it wasn't pretty,but,it's about to be over. Pot calling the kettle black is a understatement when it comes to Michele and her Hubby. This is what can happen when religious and religious groups cross the line of Church and State. Know region 6 very well and if it had not been the Mega Church's and the lazy out of touch DFL Central Committee,this would not occurred. We had a great candidate,but lost our message to our base. The Ventura crowd cut our legs off by making it a three way race and to be honest the poorest candidate won. Our Union base split between the Independent candidate and our DFLer. The Mega Church's with 35 thousand members each,went total negative with their groups. Bachmann's would campaign in their pulpits. Good case study in how a group of zellets can be turned to activist's. Notice how and where and now this tactic is used by most Rethugs. We even asked the IRS to get involved but to know avail. What has happened to Region 6 since Bactchman,highest unemployment in the state. Highest increase in people in poverty. Zero investment in infrastructure other than emergency repairs. Only part of Region 6 that is holding it's own is a small portion of the western area of the district.

"edutained" me these past few years. She has been part of my inspiration to stay educated about politics, and she entertains me with her um...witty comments and charming smile.

and in such a rare and in improbable instance, she would be correct!

It is the goal of Christianity! As we continue to be reminded of it day after day, year after year, for decades.
