Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist and Washington Post associate editor Eugene Robinson said on national television Thursday that Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) has a history of saying "crazy-ass things." After doing so on MSNBC's "Countdown," Robinson was offered $100 by Keith Olbermann if he would title his next article using exactly those words (video follows with transcript and commentary):

Like what?

You know, like all that crazy constitution talk.

Because if thats crazy, I want more of it.

Bachmann is on my short list for president. I really like her. For me, the only ones I'm really interested in are the people who spoke up early and kept speaking up when it seemed like Obama was on a roll. Bachmann was one of the very few who has been out there from very early on, along with Palin, DeMint, maybe Inhofe, and a very few others.

Anyone else who wants to put himself out there for president, I have to ask, where were you before? People like Bachmann, Palin, and DeMint have made it safe for the weaker sisters to stand up. But they were in the fight when it looked hopeless.

Yes Michelle Bachmann is a lovely, intelligent, informed, thoughtful person. I would love to see her as VP with DeMint.

I’m so glad we have Newsbusters to show the other side.
