Outgoing Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) says President Obama has embraced the agenda of Islamic jihad at every turn.
I have been very surprised, to answer your question, to see the president of the United States, at every turn, cut the legs off of our ally Israel, and in fact embrace and lift up the agenda of Islamic jihad, she said in an interview released Wednesday with "Washington Watch," a radio show produced by the socially conservative Family Research Council.
Bachmann criticized the president for writing to Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, to encourage a deal on Tehran's nuclear program. This really is a spiritual battle that were dealing with, she added. And while the president continues to say that this is not about the religion of Islam, I beg to differ.
Her comments were first reported by BuzzFeed News.
Bachmann said she spoke to Obama at this year's White House Christmas party and encouraged him to take action against Iran. But she said the president mocked her concerns.
And he laughed at me condescendingly, and he said, Well, Michele, it isnt that easy. But thats OK. Like patting me on the head, like I didnt know what I was talking about, she said.
It's not the first time Bachmann has made controversial comments about Islam. In 2012, she said that Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin had ties to the extremist Muslim Brotherhood.
Her decision to retire leaves House Republicans without one of their more outspoken conservative voices.
She regularly pushed the conference to take a harder line against President Obama, including working with Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) to seek a vote on legislation to challenge executive action deferring deportations for millions of illegal immigrants.
I’m sure we haven’t heard the last from her.
Too bad her district forced her to retire.
a) Weakens America/AmericansThere are no counter examples.
b) Distances America's allies
c) Strengthens America's enemies
d) Serves Islam
e) Harms Israel
Or some combination of the above.
She is a person who is concerned about the country rather than her political career.
I’m a fan. I like her a lot.
She rely is impressive. We hope she’ll be back soooon!
Bohner embraced Obama.
Bachman voted for boehner for speaker
O’s Islamic Jihad template has also been retrofitted for racial jihad in our cities and towns.
I heed what she says. She has it more right than wrong.
You are correct, as a lot of these black protesters are prison-indoctrinated muslims.
People like Michelle scare the hell out of the statest liberals and that’s another reason to love her.
Always thought he would come out of the closet as a Moslem in his second term. I still don’t think I will be disappointed.
She’ll do something next have any idea what that might be?
Fox News?
Being a young to middle aged black male in an urban culture affords so few options due to societal and family breakdown, that racial jihad will become a common every day happening as Obama shapes and organizes communities for his goals.
Baraq supports Muzzie regimes, but he’s way too much a part of the wealthy leisure class to have any amount of actual Islamic faith.
Good idea. Let’s hope.
Huma does have ties to the Muslim Brotherhood—such as her parents. Is speaking the truth now “extreme”?
That POS has contributed to the blackest Christmas that an American president has ever provided.
He has promoted rioting and incited violence with the likes of Sharpton and Lisa Filthian.
His actions promoted the racially inspired hammer deaths. He brought us lisa filthian and her crowd actions coast to coast.
Those poor people in ferguson? Those poor fools? The witch rode into town, whipped up the people, then they rioted , burned and looed the businesses. Turning the place into a war zone. Then she left. Wherever she goes is destruction. She should be held liable and accountable.
Wo? What’s left for ferguson?
The fools get manipulated, businesses leave, employers, goods and services leave..... and everyone sees them for who they are.... idiots. Idiots who were used as useful idiots by a flippin marxist.
Do these people think that taking this approach is going to give them a better future with better leaders????
