Do As I Say Department: the clinic run by Michele Bachmann’s husband has collected over $137,000 in Medicaid payments since 2005, while Michele has been railing against Medicaid. This must be why Michele Bachmann doesn’t want Medicaid money going to the poor. She wants it all to be going to her. AND, on top of all the clinic money, Michele is a partner in a family farm that has received some $260,000 in federal farm subsidies. Yeesh. I think we could make a big dent in the federal debt if we just cut off the money Michele Bachmann is getting.
Glenn Beck says his family was harassed by fellow movie watchers when they took in a free movie being shown in New York’s Bryant Park. Beck described the crowd at the movie as “the most hateful people I’ve seen.” Gee Glenn, don’t you ever look out at the crowd at your own rallies? Beck claims one woman yelled “We hate Republicans” at him and his family, and later another man shouted “We hate conservatives.” Glenn, if you’re going to make up lines for the bad guys in your little story to say, at least make them more creative than that. New Yorkers yell things at each other all the time, and it’s always much more inventive than those stock lines. Of course, it’s possible that some people actually were rude to Glenn. I’m sure he wasn’t surprised… or disappointed. Deep down inside, every hate monger really wants to be a martyr. The lesson for Glenn is, they say people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. Well, people who throw stones at other people for a living shouldn’t be surprised when a few stones get thrown back at them.
