...No, Mark and Karl left me out. Can you let me know when and where this meeting and minutes occured, via posts...
Another Pub “SCANDAL” - sheesh, the DBM is dead to me
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) has taped an advertisement apologizing for her televised comments calling Barack Obama anti-American, according to a Republican source familiar with her campaign’s decision.
Bachmann campaign spokeswoman Michelle Marston said the campaign will be airing a new advertisement this afternoon, but declined to comment specifically on whether Bachmann would be apologizing in the spot.
“You’ll just have to wait and see,” Marston said.
The move comes as polling, both public and internal, shows Bachmann rapidly losing ground in her reelection bid. A University of Minnesota poll released today shows Bachmann trailing her Democratic opponent, Elwyn Tinklenberg, 45 percent to 43 percent. Those numbers are consistent with an automated SurveyUSA poll showing Bachmann trailing Tinklenberg 47 percent to 44 percent.
Tinklenberg has been referencing Bachmann’s comments in his own advertising this week. His latest ad, airing across the district, replays her controversial “Hardball” gaffe.
“Michele Bachmann represents the worst of Washington, even questioning the patriotism of others in Congress,” the ad says. “Gen. Colin Powell called her comments nonsense.”
Bachmann isn’t the only House Republican ensnared by controversy to make a televised apology. Last month, Rep. Tom Feeney (R-Fla.) apologized for his past involvement with jailed lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Polls show him badly trailing Democrat Suzanne Kosmas.
Another Florida congressman, Democrat Tim Mahoney, who is involved in a sex scandal, apologized for his misconduct to a local television reporter.

Woke n Lurk mode .... ENGAGED!
They met at a Home Depot in Delaware. They all spoke with a slight Indian accent to disguise their voices. I’m not joking!
Ya me too, got to go. People coming
Glenn added another All Hail The Messiah video on youtube, but I lost the link for it.
It must be seen. It was just put up a couple of weeks ago and is 1:27 long.
If you could link me. It would be much appreciated.
SHOOT A MO HUMPIN MOOSE 8 DAYS OF THE WEEK!!!
Thanks for posting, Conservobabe.
...Damn!!! I’ve just finished rosetta stone on Lacota Indian language, sorry, I missed it, thanks...
TRAGIC - the economic “crisis” is causing ILLEGALS to return to their own countries....wow. Such a terrible, terrible thing to occur. Sheesh. The MSM really has its collective head up its collect arse.
Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining...
No wonder I smelled something funny here!!
KARL YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!!!
Anytime!
:)
How was the wonderful Sarah?
*LOL* I can’t believe the MSM is reporting this as a negative thing....
I only have one thing to say to that...........WOOHOO!!!!!!
I got a call from Zogby last night imploring me to go vote, which I already did. Sure enough it did come from the Arab-American Institute.
SARAH PALIN RALLY AFTER ACTION REPORT:
First, I have to quit being mad at the Missouri Republican Party organizers.
Let me put it this way: My ticket numbers for the event were #21 and #22.
Yet, when I got there, the “organizers” told me they hadn’t put out enough VIP chairs and my seats were gone. I took one of my young female employees so she could shake hands with Sarah, get a photo, etc. I was not happy. That won’t be the end of it, either.
We ended up standing way in the back. Gosh, $5K donations just don’t go as far as they used to...
Typical Republican Party organizing...dysfunctional.
OTHER THAN THAT...
The rally was held at the flagship Bass Pro Shops store...huge parking lot. The place was PACKED. I’m guessing more than 10,000, but the news reports have said everything from 6,000 to 20,000.
Pierce Arrow, a singing quarter out of Branson warmed up the crowd. Cong. Kenny Hulshof, who’s the nominee for governor spoke, as well as Cong. Roy Blunt.
Naomi Judd introduced Sarah (she looks Gothic these days). She wasn’t impressive, but her heart is in the right place.
The place went crazy when Sarah came out. She talked about feeling right at home in the Bass Pro Shops store and wanted to keep shopping.
She gave the standard stump speech, which was well received. She emphasized values, growing small businesses, a freeze on Federal spending and lowering taxes.
Speech was about 25 minutes, then she walked right down to where MY SEATS are and shook hands a posed with the jerks sitting in MY SEATS.
I’ll post photos ASAP.
I did take some photos of some “protesters” (DU types) just for my FR peeps.
I had one of my employees drop us off and pick us up; while we were waiting for our ride, I stood “right in the middle” of the protesters (between two of them) and handed out some of the “Women for Palin” buttons I bought at the rally.
Since I have about 100 pounds on the biggest guy there, they didn’t say a word! What a bunch of liberal weenie wimps.
Code Pink was there, but I guess they got cold and left early. More wimps.
Overall, a great event. It’s nice to live in this part of the country. Biden had about 2,000 at his rally here and that’s being generous.
Sarah rocked the Ozarks at Bass Pro!
I had to rush my Libby Kitty to the vet this morning. She has an intestinal infection. =(
