Michele Bachmann's latest paranoid fantasy: Net neutrality is 'essentially censorship of the Internet'
By David Neiwert Tuesday Apr 20, 2010 3:00pm



Michele Bachmann's paranoia knows no bounds. Now she's claiming that Bill Clinton wants to "take her out" (and not in the dating kinda way, either). Why? Because Clinton criticized her choice of language in calling the government "gangsters," as part of his weeklong observations that the rhetoric from people like Bachmann is what produced unhinged and violent acts like Oklahoma City.

Talk like this upsets the right-wing talkers very much, and of course it then all becomes about how the mean left-wingers are saying nasty things about poor meek conservatives, who have never said a mean things about anyone in their lives. That was Bachmann's schtick last night on Sean Hannity's Fox show.

And as proof that liberals are evilly trying to silence right-wingers, Bachmann trotted out ... net neutrality.

Bachmann: Oh sure, that's all they have left now, is they use pejorative terms, hateful terms, against those who are carrying the message. So whether they're attacking conservative talk radio, or conservative TV, or whether it's Internet sites -- I mean, let's face it, what's the Obama administration doing? They're advocating net neutrality, which is essentially censorship of the Internet!

This is the Obama administration advocating censorship of the Internet. Why? They want to silence the voices that are opposing them.

Net neutrality? Censorship? Really? Well, not really. How about more like the precise opposite?

Somebody's been watching too much Glenn Beck. Bachmann is a prime example of what happens when you let Beck do your thinking for you.

1. Seriously, is this woman out of her mind?

[babylonsister]

4. In a word, YES! nt

[easilynervous]

5. yes n/t

[bjobotts]

14. Why can't her constituents see what is obvious to the rest of us..she's nuts and doesn't know what

she's talking about to the point of being a raving lunatic. She belongs in an asylum on mega doses of thorazine. Come on MNs...you deserve so much better. She's such an embarrassment to your state and the country.

[saltpoint]

15. Agree about the mega doses of thorazine, and given her psychopathological

opposition to health care reform, let's make her pay for it out of her campaign kitty.

[liberation]

19. She would need to have a mind first, in order for her to be out of it...

[Enthusiast]

22. I really believe she is. nt

[Renew Deal]

2. Every day is stupid day for Michelle Bachmann.

And today she made up for yesterday.

[NorthCarolina]

3. Net Neutrality is Censorship? Is every day Opposites Day in her world? n/t

[yourout]

6. What the hell......No one told me it was opposite day.

[Grassy Knoll]

7. Her and Beckkk must do a snow ball contest......

[eecumings]

8. If Bachmann's lips

are moving, she is lying. Her vast ignorance is unlimited, thus the hate-talkers want her on their shows. Looking and listening to her is good...if you need to have a puke.

[wellstone dem]

9. Please, please, please donate to defeat her.

10. I'm sick of this woman acting like Tea Partying is her job.

When does this slacker ever do anything except bitch about Obama? She's always at some tea party or on some bullshit Fox show. This woman is supposed to represent her constituents as a whole, but all she and her ilk do is pander to a small segment: the Tea Party. When does she ever do what she was elected to do. Hey Bachmann, those are our tax dollars you're slacking off with, get to work for the rest of us and try doing something constructive for a change. The free market is still there. Nobody took it away.

[sakabatou]

11. For Bachmann, everyday is opposite day.

[BEZERKO]

12. Yes

and War is Peace,
Freedom is Slavery,
Ignorance is Strength!

[jberryhill]

13. This Is Highly Enriched, Weapons-Grade Stupid

You need a federal license to export stupid this intense.

The density of this level of stupid can snuff out entire galaxies in a few minutes.

16. •••• The Tea Party KNOWS - there are MONSTERS ON MAPLE STREET - Video ••••

Watch out for the monsters in this country. The libruls, the commies, the soshlists, they're comin' ta GITCHA.

Listen to the Tea Party, believe and BEWARE.

[demi moore]

17. 1984 anyone?

you think they are not aware everything they say is backwards...?
i bet if fox news did a poll on how many people think fox news should be forced to be watched, it would get 98% approval.

[K8-EEE]

18. WOW how NUTS are the people in that district??

She's really embarrassing.

[rasputin1952]

20. Jesus...

Hannity and Bachmann...bookends of the insane.

I suppose Bachmann does not realize that the exceptionally few Moderate to Liberal outlets barely exist. I turn on the radio while driving herein NE, and one of two things happen, I am either bombarded by RW claptrap, or am lambasted by religion...both entities tell me I ma going to hell for various reasons, neither realizing that they have created hell.

Even NPR has moved slightly to the Right, and I find that extremely distressing...:(

I'm actually surprised Bachmann can get a sentence out, considering all of the voices constantly arguing within he pointy little skull.

[Enthusiast]

21. One lie on top of another.

Support for Net Neutrality is a vote the status quo. We have a stake in keeping the internet open as it currently exists. The right wing on the other hand wants to strictly control the message.

One thing for sure, there is no free flow of information remaining outside the internet. If this freedom is destroyed our country will go with it.
