Minnesota’s 6th congressional district Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann has garnered a lot of attention this last week for comments she made to talk show host Chris Baker of radio station KLTK. Needless to say, her remarks were totally off the wall and were devoid of facts. OllieOx at Bluestem Prairie notes that NPR’s Wait, Wait, Don’t [...]

It is about damn time! The House passed the Wellstone parity legislation 376 to 47. A Bluestem Prairie has nice coverage of the story. As Ollie Ox pointed out, the only member of the Minnesota delegation to vote against this important piece of legislation was Rep. Michelle Bachman.

I worked some overtime Sunday (Michelle would be proud), and had to drive the 30 miles home on a windswept I-90.

What a way to start the day. This morning’s Star Tribune had a picture and story of sixth district Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, GOP, on the front page. I just about choked on my morning coffee. Why the Strib feels obligated to do a touchy-feely piece about Shrub’s biggest groupie is perplexing. Her recent trip to [...]
