For my donation to El Tinklenberg last night I received an
email thank you from "Brandon" on the Tinklenberg staff.

I emailed back to Brandon to say that it was the Democratic Underground's posting of the interview that prompted the donation.

The impression I have is that Tinklenberg's campaign is getting donations from all over the place and that there's a boost in volunteer numbers in their district.

I'm hopeful that the infusion of bucks for Tinklenberg can retire Michelle Bachmann and her nasty tongue.

3. I'm not sure either, but it's money for a damned good cause.
And it was so fun to do, too.

I've been appalled by Michelle Bachmann for some time now. What an opportunity to try and get her retired from the Congress.

8. I'll second that motion
with all my heart.

I can't abide being called "anti-American" by Michelle Bachmann.

4. I donated to his site too. There's no telling how much

5. I bet that's right. I hope they are energized and are getting
more volunteers than they can count.

7. I emailed the Bachmann interview on HARDBALL and
Edited on Sat Oct-18-08 10:02 AM by Old Crusoe
Katrina van den Heuvel's response clips to everyone I knew on earth.

The netroots have generated the interest in this project and the money is a potent symbol of how appalling Bachmann's remarks really were.

9. I received it too and I responded back in the same fashion, adding that Michelle
Bachmann's tirade on Hardball was the catalyst.

10. Tweety was excellent...
He let her go on and on and on - then he slowly steered her down and alley and cornered her. Unwilling to admit her position was ridiculous, she then screwed herself on national TV. It was a beautiful thing to watch. I hope this will be the end of a very short and unremarkable career for this woman. I hope "The Tink" destroys her.

11. A word of praise also for Katrina vanden Heuvel's response to
Matthews.

vanden Heuvel speaks for me.
