Outing Republicans who want to play Diamond Jim Brady with taxpayer money.
She and DeMint should be proud of their anti-TARP credentials.
3 years ago when that embrace occurred W had just become a lame duck President who rolled over for every spending need...
Bush (Dubya) now admits the bailout was a mistake. So is Bush throwing Bush under the bus?
Michele Bachman, one of my hero’s.
She didn’t throw Bush-o-socialist under the bus, he shoved conservatives over the cliff of socialism.
And her ad is right on!
I heart Michele Bachmann
I’m not one of those folks who blame Bush for everything, but he did make some doozies and TARP was the worst.

Unlike liberal Dems who turn blinded eyes to their foibles the real conservatives call it like it is. GWB was conservative in some ways but liberal in others. He tried to appease the Left side of the aisle way too often. MB calls it like it is.
This is pure Politico misleading headline trying to drive a wedge among Republicans.
She voted against the bill in 2008, was she “throwing Bush under the bus” then?
No, she was simply against the bill, she was then and she is now.
Bush was a mediocrity as president who got elected because the alternative in both cases was far worse. He is no conservative and many of his actions went far to discredit his party and give Hussein the White House and the leftists control of the congress. That said - compared to the buffoon we have now Bush looks like a statesman of the first order. I was right to vote for him twice because Gore is a proven lunatic and Lurch a seditious, pompous fool.
But it sure would be nice to be able to vote for someone because I thought he/she was really the best one for the job.
just because...
Politico is turning harder left by the day — and even they must know this story is fully contrived. If you read Politico carefully (with safety pin on nose firmly attached), you see they have two primary goals: (1) Puff Barack Obama, and (2) Savage Sarah Palin (or anyone, like Michele, who happens to align himself or herself with Sarah).
In short, Politico has become a predictable leftwing rag.
She didn’t flip flop. She likes Bush on some things, and faults him on others.
Bush was excellent on the right to life. He was excellent in the early days of the war on terror, although he later got bogged down. Although that may have been the constant undermining of the war effort by the Dems and the press.
Bush was also a decent and likeable guy.
But he had some major flaws. Among them: Amnesty, big spending, big government, and failure to stand up and speak the truth to Dem lies.
give it a break Michelle!
I know I will now get flamed by the Michelle fans...I like her too. and flamed by the Bush Bashers too.
But you don’t need to join the left and bash Bush. give it a break..Just move forward. Its always ugly when conservatives start to tear down other conservatives.
Ok, now everyone on board and all at once” But, but she was JUST being HONEST’. Yeah, right.
Guess I am just getting fed up with all of them and their egos.
Michele Bachmann - Savage's favorite elected official.
TSN agrees wholeheartedly!
GW needs to be thrown under the bus.
Voting against the bailouts is worth bragging about.
Bush sold us out and he deserves to be under the bus.
I’m sure Bush is really upset about this. ROTFL!!! After all, he isn’t running for anything. The Politico. Geeesh. What a waste of bandwidth.
