    The Target Keeps Moving

    | November 14, 2011

    I like how the leading GOP presidential candidate keeps changing every few weeks. The lefty media is having a hard time deciding who to destroy. The politics of personal destruction has been working for them so far. As experienced by Sarah Palin, “Makin’ things up” pays off big time.

    Michele Bachmann Sharing About Her Miscarriage

    | June 30, 2011

    Michele Bachmann tells SC crowd of ‘devastating’ miscarriage
    http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0611/58086.html#ixzz1Qn51lJ6C

    “Michele Bachmann spoke candidly Wednesday night about suffering a miscarriage.”

    “‘After our second child was born, we became pregnant with a third baby,’ the Republican presidential candidate told hundreds during a town hall at Winthrop University here. ‘And it was an unexpected baby, but of course we were delighted to have this child. And the child was coming along, and we ended up losing that child. And it was devastating for both of us, as you can imagine if any of you have lost a child.’”

    “The surprise disclosure came as she explained her opposition to abortion.”

    “‘And at that moment we didn’t think of ourselves as overly career minded or overly materialistic,’ she said, also speaking for her husband. ‘When we lost that child, it changed us. And it changed us forever.’”

    “Considering the sensitivity of the subject matter, Bachmann maintained remarkable composure. She did not choke up.”

    “‘So we made a commitment that no matter how many children were brought into our life, we’d receive them because we’re committed to life,’ she said. ‘And we didn’t know at that time we’d be foster parents, and that one day we’d be parents of 28 children, but we are extremely grateful for that opportunity because you can get money wrong, but you can’t get life wrong. And I am committed to life.’”

    “Bachmann has raised five biological children. The youngest just graduated from high school. Over the years, she and her husband took 23 foster children into their home.”

    “‘This is an easy one,’ she said of abortion. ‘I am 100% pro-life, from conception until natural death.’”

    Dr. Seuss Has the Best ‘Attachment Parenting’ Quote
    http://thestir.cafemom.com/baby/116937/dr_seuss_has_the_best

    “A person’s a person, no matter how small.” Dr. Seuss

    “The reason something like ‘cry-it-out’ is not an AP tenet is because we believe that a child who is crying is using their voice — the only thing a baby has — to ask for something…”

    http://www.parentdish.com/2011/02/17/michelle-vs-the-michelles-a-breast-feeding-throwdown/

    “Michelle Obama is talking up the health benefits of breast-feeding and new government incentives that she hopes will encourage more moms to nurse and hopefully, curb childhood obesity.”

    “But two other Michelles, Michelle Bachman and Michelle Malkin, breast-feeding moms themselves, are challenging her “nanny state” approach to the issue…”

    Rush Limbaugh

    | May 21, 2010

    The Limbaugh Victory
    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/20/opinion/20chafets.html

    “Mr. Limbaugh stepped into the void with a raucous denunciation of the new president’s agenda and a strategic plan based on his belief that real conservatism wins every time.”

    Mainstream media represents the extreme left

    S.E. Cupp: Liberal Media Can’t Deal with ‘Pretty, Conservative Women’
    http://newsmax.com/Headline/cupp-conservatives-media-women/2010/04/16/id/356010

    “‘Conservatism rightly resists the changing tide, the changing social mores. The whole idea of conservatism is to preserve what we think is good. So these flag bearers like Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann, women no less, I think are really throwing mud in the eye of the liberals who would rather see them locked up in some museum..’”

    “‘CNN is pretty bad. The New York Times is pretty bad only because of the clout and influence that paper has. You would expect them to be a bit more responsible. MSNBC is terrible. Some of the talking heads there like Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews — these guys really have it out for Christianity…’”

    “Cupp has said Barack Obama has an ‘affinity for radical Marxist theology.’ Asked to elaborate, she says: ‘If you look at some of his own testimony about his religious education, whether in his book or his speeches, he discusses at length his decision to follow black liberation theology, the kind of Christianity espoused by Reverend [Jeremiah] Wright and a number of other well-known pastors around the country.’”

    “‘Obama describes it as not particularly a Christ-driven move on his part but as sort of a recognition of the black social causes of the time. That’s what really drove him into Christianity. When you actually read about it, it’s far more radical than the Pentecostalism of Sarah Palin or the Baptism of a Mike Huckabee. Yet those folks are constantly painted by the liberal media as being fanatical and fringe.’”

    “‘If anyone bothered to look at Obama’s black liberation theology, they would have no choice but to recognize that it’s an incredibly radical — and I would even say extreme — version of Christianity.’”
