People say we are at war but we almost never see it on tv anymore. Well, I don’t. I don’t have a whole lot of time for tv. And on the tv I do see, I see people talk about it, show maps, and show recycled footage from a year ago. Every once in a while I stumble on footage.
Next, can the locals give us an idea of what’s up with this Rep. Bachmann HUAC-o? (From an interview on Friday w/ Chris Matthews.)
CHRIS MATTHEWS: So this is a character issue. You believe that Barack Obama may — you’re suspicious because of this relationship — may have anti-American views. Otherwise, it’s probably irrelevant to this discussion.
REP. MICHELE BACHMANN, R-MINN.: Absolutely. I absolutely…
MATTHEWS: Do you believe that… Barack Obama may have anti-American views?
BACHMANN: Absolutely. I’m very concerned that he may have anti- American views. That’s what the American people are concerned about. That’s why they want to know what his answers are. That’s why Joe the plumber has figured so highly in had the last few days…
MATTHEWS: OK. I just want to get off this…
BACHMANN: What I would say is that the news media should do a penetrating expose and take a look. I wish they would. I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out, are they pro-America or anti-America? I think people would love to see an expose like that.
