Michele Bachmann Blames Obama For Release Of ISIS Leader Which Happened During The Bush Admin
On the Saturday broadcast of the End Times radio show “Understanding the Times with Jan Markell,” Rep. Michele Bachmann discussed the Islamic State and predicted that the terrorist group’s members are planning imminent attacks inside the U.S. and will make American cities experience levels of violence seen in Iraqi cities like Baghdad, Right Wing Watch reports.
[su_center_ad]Bachmann declared that members of the group are entering the country by illegally crossing the southern border and they “march through our United States airports.”
Bachmann made the completely false claim – a circulated falsehood in the right wing media – that “President Obama released Baghdadi,” referring to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
But, Baghdadi was released during the Bush administration. An agreement signed by President George W. Bush in 2008 led to Baghdadi’s release in 2009.
But never mind all that.
“I don’t want to see the car bombings and all of the havoc and chaos coming to the United States that we see in Baghdad,” she said. “Since we have the Islamic State come into the United States, we’ll see a wave of car bombings and bombings that occur here in the United States that would begin the process of destabilization to bring them to the point of defeating us here in the United States.”

I think she is perpetually angry because marcus is gay

I think it’s worse than that! She’s gay and wants Sarah to notice her.

sara and greta are special friends, cat fight coming

lol, think about how greta was so solitious and protective and how she was obviously hurt and angry when Sara stopped hanging out with her socially and on her show

And, this ignorant woman remained a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence during the 113th Congress!
I’m surprised Michele Bachmann hasn’t blamed President Obama, IRS, Benghazi, ISIS, and Ebola for all of these:
— Being in Congress since January 3, 2007 with a ZERO Accomplishment Chart.
— Collecting $174,000 salary per year on taxpayers’ dime, the same amount as her male colleagues while strongly believes women do not want Equal Pay.
— Having the BEST Health Care Plan on taxpayers’ dime while denying others to have access to health care.
— Her retirement plan, and other benefits on taxpayers’ dime.
— Her Staff salaries and benefits on taxpayers’ dime.
— Collecting contributions from Lobbyists and Special Interest Groups instead of doing the job she was hired to do.
— Collecting federal government subsides for the family farm and her husband’s clinic for years on taxpayers’ dime.
— Quietly returning campaign contributions from an ex-con who lured investors for one of the biggest Ponzi schemes in U.S. history, and on whose behalf the Tea Party lawmaker sought a presidential pardon.
— Her 2012 presidential campaign team stealing an email list off of Barb Heki’s computer.
— Her 2012 campaign financial corruptions.

It’s obviously a very low bar to entry to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. House leadership picks the members, and there are no scholars choosing, or to choose from, are there?
forpeace October 6th, 2014 at 8:23 pm
Basically, the majority party picks members of those Committees and Subcommittees, I’m sure John Boehner is involved in all decisions, maybe he picked her when he was not sober!
The same goes for the Chairman of House Oversight and Government Reform Committee the famous pathological liar Darrell Issa.

Issa was selected specifically to be the right’s hatchet man.
forpeace October 6th, 2014 at 11:14 pm
That is true. Darrell Issa has become a vocal advocate for investigations into the Obama administration 24/7, that is the ONLY thing he has been doing since 2009 till present.
He is an expert in presenting countless hearings and lawsuits, false accusations based on releasing selectively chosen data, forged emails, partial transcripts, and documents as evidence, and he has failed miserably every single time because couldn’t find anything!!

Baghdadi was captured in February 2004 and released in December 2004.
From Punditfact:
However, when PunditFact asked the Defense Department to confirm the story, officials there said Baghdadi was released in 2004, not 2009.
“Ibrahim Awad Ibrahim Al Badry, also known as ‘Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’ was held as a ‘civilian internee’ by U.S. Forces-Iraq from early February 2004 until early December 2004, when he was released,” the Pentagon said in a statement. “He was held at Camp Bucca. A Combined Review and Release Board recommended ‘unconditional release’ of this detainee and he was released from U.S. custody shortly thereafter. We have no record of him being held at any other time.”

same exact babble of lies and fear, this time she said ISIS instead of Al Queda

GOP’s midterm election strategy is akin to trusting Marcuth Bachmann & Ben Carson to babysit your kids unsupervised until 2016~

How a woman (or man) this dumb can become a congress critter is testimony to the American public’s own stupidity.
The press is also responsible for promoting this fool.

We have health care reform, a growing economy and a dwindling unemployment rate.
But best of all – we’ve had no attacks on American soil under Barack Obama.

And we are soon to be Bachmann free. At least as a Congresswoman.

She and PalinBrawl repeat verbatim GOP leader Limbaugh! “She had a remarkable streak: Her first 13 ratings were False or Pants on Fire.”-PolitiFact who Bachmann falsely said “After the debate that we had last week, PolitiFact came out and said that everything I said was true,”-Burning off her pants in another fire!
