Michele Bachmann, August 6, 2008:
“This is their agenda,” Bachmann states bluntly. “I know it is hard to believe, it’s hard to fathom — but this is ‘mission accomplished’ for them,” she asserts. “They want Americans to take transit and move to the inner cities. They want Americans to move to the urban core, live in tenements, [and] take light rail to their government jobs. That’s their vision for America.”
Joe Biden, September 16, 2008:
Meantime, Mr. Biden was assuring another passenger, “If we get elected, it will be the most train-friendly administration ever.”

And the words of the prophets were written on the subway walls and tenement halls: Joe is coming for you Michelle, and he’s coming on Amtrak.
She really hates trains.
God If I lived in MN-06 I would move; couldn’t stand knowing that some bat shit crazy idiot was representing me.
OMG NO! The Dems want us to increase train services which are more efficient, economic, and environment friendly then cars. What a horrible idea!
Oh gawd the horror! Making people use pubic transportation. It would be the end of civilization as we know it.
Here’s why. http://www.northstartrain.org/
It is a lightrail line that will be put through the heart of her district, eventually serving the suburbs/exurbs up to AN HOUR AND A HALF AWAY FROM MINNEAPOLIS ST PAUL when taking the freeway without traffic!
Wtf! There will literally be a HUGE lightrail line going through her entire district for the SPECIFIC purpose of allowing people to live entirely too far away from the Twin Cities and still work there. This area has probably the highest growth in all of Minnesota (the exurbs out in Wright, Sherburne, and Stearns county, again the mini-Bible belt) and we are ACCOMIDATING them moving way outside of the city WITH trains.
if you dont like swearing, stop reading now as I have to let loose for my own betterment
She is a completely fucking stupid ape shit crazy ass woman. I absolutely cannot wait for this complete fucking embarrassment to either lose to Tinklenberg this year or I will pray that we lose a congressional seat and we will redistrict her ass to space where her crazy ranting belongs. I clearly am not for MN losing electoral vote power but this bitch is worth it.
::end tirade::
God I cant wait to get up at 5am to go vote against her. Seriously, what a perfect motivation to get up that freakin early. (Absentee voting is not fun, I want to check the box on election day.)

If McCain wins, what a pair–Palin and Bachmann. They could lunch together.

Maybe I’m late to the party (as usual) but I didn’t even know he lived in Virginia.
I’m really, really pumped for what Obama and Biden will do for rail in this country.
And I’m REALLY hoping we can get rid of this crazy lady, SOON.
This woman is too precious. Those satanic subway systems.
then help Tinklenberg. http://www.actblue.com/contrib…
Ever since the Railrunner opened here in NM, I’ve met tons of people who commute on it to work in Albuquerque but live out in small towns such as Belen, Los Lunas, Bernaillio and Abq’s South Valley. If anything, the train expands job opportunities and brings more money to towns that really don’t have any professional employment.
