'BUT MICHELE BACHMANN SAID SOMETHING!' Dems, media hope we'll forget about Obama, Gruber

Bachmann to Post: immigrants given new protections by the president could become “illiterate” Democratic voters

— Robert Costa (@costareports) November 19, 2014

Bachmann: “… millions of unskilled, illiterate, foreign nationals coming into [the U.S.] who can’t speak the English language"

— Robert Costa (@costareports) November 19, 2014

Bachmann: WH "looking at new voters for '16…. People do vote w/o being a citizen. It’s a wink & a nod, we all know it’s going to happen"

When asked by The Post why she chose to use the word “illiterate," Bachmann said her view was informed by trips to the border…

Bachmann: "I’m not using a pejorative term agst ppl who are non-American citizens. I’m only repeating what I heard from Hispanic Americans"

— Robert Costa (@costareports) November 19, 2014

Bachmann: I "spoke to American Hispanics on the border. That’s what they told me. Those are not Michele Bachmann’s words"

Obama is destroying the rule of law, but let's see what Michelle Bachmann said! – US media.

Hey Bob, quick question: Why is what Bachmann said more important to you than Obama undermining the rule of law? Just curious @costareports

— RB (@RBPundit) November 19, 2014

Obama's causing a constitutional crisis, BUT MICHELLE BACHMANN SAID SOMETHING!!! – Fucking hacks.

— RB (@RBPundit) November 19, 2014

This is the state of the media today. Obama is acting like a dictator but the Beltway Media is focused on a retiring Congresswoman.

@RBPundit @costareports what Bachmann says matters, but apparently what #Gruber says…not so much

— S D (@SHARHAIR) November 19, 2014

@RBPundit Over/under on NBC mentions of Bachmann statements vs Gruber?

— MB (@ElBuehn) November 19, 2014

Sucker bet. RT @ElBuehn @RBPundit Over/under on NBC mentions of Bachmann statements vs Gruber?

— RB (@RBPundit) November 19, 2014

.@seanagnew @gabrielmalor @alwaysonoffense I'm thinking this will get more press than Gruber. Amirite?

@hmfearny @instapundit @RBPundit Same shit they did re: Gruber. Sure he lied to pass huge entitlement, but look at angry Rs overreacting!

Bachmann is a story but Gruber is a distraction. Got it.

— Shoebart (@theshoebart) November 19, 2014

It's not like Bachmann called Americans stupid after lying to us about a huge piece of legislation, but hey…what do I know?

— Matthew (@Matthops82) November 19, 2014

All GOP reps or pundits should answer any question about Bachmann with a response about #Gruber

— BiasedGirl (@BiasedGirl) November 19, 2014

Do you people realize the Dems have STILL not apologized for standing proudly with Klansman Robert Byrd or murderer Ted Kennedy for YEARS?

— Leon Wolf (@LeonHWolf) November 19, 2014

Republican talking heads: If asked on air about Bachmann's comments just pull out your phone and play any youtube of Biden. Don't even talk.
