Michele Bachmann to Speak About Something She Seems to Know Little About: The Constitution

• I think you miss the point. Isn't this article about Bachman having some lack of understanding of the United States Constitution? That seems to be the set up for the article (as long as you miss the throw away Charlie Sheen line put there to increase relevance for an irrelevant writer with an irrelevant story). This is an assertation about Bachman that is not backed up by the evidence presented by the writer. As for the Census, they have asked more questions at each release of the newest census. Its purpose is to find a total numeric value of the population according to the Constitution. It is not to inquire into income, religious beliefs or other invasive information as it is currently released. My primary objection is to the idiot writing his ideology, putting a misleading title on it, sprinkle with demagoguery from Charlie Sheen no less, for search engine seasoning and calling it journalism. It's still a fried turd from a moron.

• you disgust me. Since when did it become the media's job to test the veracity of the comments made by fringe politicians? I am so disgusted that not only do I feel the need to disagree, but a strong urge to beat this writer with a piece of garden hose. And the same goes for anyone who doesn't share my twisted worldview. It makes no difference that Bachman cited an unnamed source from an Indian news agency. The only thing that matters is the $200 million figure conforms to the narrative I'm trying to present. As for the census, why does the Fed need to know how many ppl live in my house? So Barack HUSSEIN Obama has a better idea of how many more ppl he needs to exploit in order complete his coup... You're not just a terrible writer, but a pervert and a fiend. May God have mercy on your soul...

• Interesting question. I didn't know that the census for was biased for or against any particular party. As a previous P/T census taken, we went to people's homes....not democratic/republican/independent/green party homes. If the Census Bureau did not have a completed form from a household, they sent census takers there. Period. We didn't like the long form any more than those being asked the questions. We preferred to go in, ask the short form questions and get out and go to the next house. Have the forms changed since Pres. Obama was elected? Why wasn't all of this flack brought up before?

• Really? is this big news that liberal writers think the government is entitled to intrude into our homes and ask personal questions about our lives? The Constitution establishes a census for redistricting purposes. That doesn't require information about our income or our religious beliefs. Screw the Feds and their invasive questions. As for the source on Obama's trip being a report from an Indian news source, so what? Do you know the exact total? Can you make an educated guess? Does it matter? Don't the libs get tired of saying "tax the rich more" while they jet set all over the world? Also does the India story about the excessive size of the traveling party and its ensuing cost relate to some Constitutional issue being stated or discussed by Michelle Bachman? This article is about a liberal writer trying to come up with enough key words to get noticed. Charlie Sheen? Really? Lets go with Michael Moore’s plan to confiscate all the cash because it's a natural resource for the country not some commodity that people have earned. You are a bottom feeder of a writer. Go find a story somewhere that says something besides your opinion.
