Michele Bachmann accuses African American lawmakers of lying despite VIDEO proof

By GottaLaff

Please go read Steve Benen's post. It's perfect. I'll give you a couple of excerpts, but please pop over and see how he takes apart her idiocy so beautifully that I have little to add:

Oh, Michele Bachmann, is there anything you won't say out loud? [...]
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) told a crowd at a Duluth, Minn., rally over the weekend that there is no evidence that several black lawmakers were harassed by conservative protesters on Capitol Hill in the days leading up to the health care reform vote. [...]

She went on, "There's a $10,000 reward right now for anyone who can produce a video or an audio. Don't you think we would have seen a video or an audio by now if there was something out there?"
It's easy to expect garden-variety stupidity from Michele Bachmann, but these remarks question the integrity of her colleagues, who've been harassed by Bachmann's unhinged friends. The sooner she apologizes, the better.

Benen has much more for you to savor at this link.

Here's the video, via the Huffington Post, that Bachmann will likely ignore, deny, mock, and/or call phony, but is apparently worth 10 grand:



If you go to the comments under my original post of the video, you'll notice the skepticism there. It's mind-boggling.

Then again, it's mind-boggling that any civilized human being would spit like that to begin with, as is the utter disregard and lack of respect for anyone but their own Tea Tantruming clan.
