The video proves that when hate-filled conservatives like Bachmann are confronted and asked to explain their hate, they run away from truth very quickly. Bachmann is a cowardly woman peddling anti-Muslim hatred.
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) on Wednesday ran from CNN cameras as Senior Congressional Correspondent Dana Bash asked her about her accusations that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, Huma Abedin, was infiltrating the U.S. government on behalf of radical Islamists in the Muslim Brotherhood.
Earlier on Wednesday, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) had taken to the Senate floor to rip Bachmann and four other Republican lawmakers for their “specious and degrading attacks” on Abedin.
“The allegations about Huma Abedin and the report from which they are drawn are nothing less than an unwarranted and unfounded attack on an honorable citizen, a dedicated American and a loyal public servant,” the Arizona senator said. “These attacks have no logic, no basis and no merit. And they need to stop. They need to stop now.”

- cjj ~ FTGOP 2012/07/19 16:23:28+2The fact that this woman was fully supported by the Tea Party clearly shows the whole TP movement is not a rational movement. Time to flush it like the dirty TP it's "leaders" have clearly shown it to be.

+3I think it shows the racism and religious bigotry of the tea party; clearly Bachmann has a base and I think she's doing this to appeal to the racism of her political base.reply
