    There goes Michelle Bachmann spewing her tea party lingo at another tea party rally. The right-wing thugs from Washington are not content with Washington alone. No. They must invade the state of Iowa as well. And so the propaganda continues. More fuel for that pathetic horrific war. I get so angry! Those right-wing thugs have to go. It's as simple as that!

    That dirty GOP is at it again. Inciting the public to go forward with that obscene war. When will it stop! Let's not forget the millions that Cheney made with those war contracts and continues to make. It simply takes my breath away and makes me so sick! I hate it!
