OK, so I saw the Bachmann interview finally...and I'm still wondering why Tweety didn't ask THIS:
"If Barack Obama is so anti-American, as you claim, why in the world do you think he's running for president? Because he HATES his country?"

1. I'm still waiting for someone to point out that Obama has been
repeatedly vetted during the course of his state and federal career and that Sarah Palin has the more questionable character.

2. I'd like to ask her a few questions ...
Isn't it anti-American to encourage an "anti-American" witch hunt? Isn't it anti-American to demand that every citizen meet certain criteria in order to be considered "pro-American" and patriotic? Isn't it anti-American for one person to decide who is "anti-American" and who is not?

6. In my opinion, Tweety was giving her plenty of rope...
to hang herself with...let her get it all out on the record...I thought he did a good job of leading her on actually...I'm sure the red-meat Republicans were jumping for joy, but the average American who see's the interview will greatly alarmed.

7. Tweety didn't ask a LOT of questions
Bachmann was spewing hatred and nonsense like a cheap sparkler. Practically any question, any challenge would have been welcome. Matthews kept spouting questions without waiting for the satellite delay, allowing Bachmann to just answer whatever she felt like saying while both of them were yakking. Pitiful, yet some folks will think he was tough on her.
