Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn, told President Obama directly this week that he needed to bomb Iran, and that if he didn’t, Iran would gain a nuclear weapons and it would be his fault.
Bachmann, who spoke with Obama at the White House Christmas party, did not seek reelection and is retiring from Congress this year.
According to the Washington Free Beacon:
Despite the objections of her family members, who didn’t want to be embarrassed, Bachmann said she wanted to give some “substantive comments” to the president. She waited until pictures were taken and her family walked off the stage.
“I turned to the president and I said, something to the effect of, ‘Mr. President, you need to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities, because if you don’t, Iran will have a nuclear weapon on your watch and the course of world history will change,’” she told the Washington Free Beacon.
“And he got his condescending smile on his face and laughed at me and said, ‘Well Michele, it’s just not that easy.’ And I said to him, ‘No, Mr. President, you’re the president, it will happen on your watch, and you’ll have to answer to the world for this.’ And that was it and then I left. Merry Christmas,” she said with a laugh.
Well, she did what she had to do. But he will never do what he has to do.
“Condescending smile.”
Michelle should have kicked him in the nuts then said ‘Merry Christmas’.
lol.
Like!
He’s nuts from head to toe…where to begin? ☺
I just like the fact she spoke her mind. Love it!

Like too!
While I agree with the sentiment, the setting was inappropriate — but the Republicans are look and are full on crazy now — so why not.
I think that our politicians socializing is inappropriate. To be honest. the schmoozing and dealing. It makes me sick.
If Obama were to bomb Iran, he’d screw it up and start WWIII. Nothing he touches ever gets better, just worse.
how does one describe the Midas touch in reverse? Barry! everything he touches turns to sh**.
Yep
Well since everyting he does is backward. Midas backwards is sadim which is only one character off from sadiSm?
Would that be the chestnuts AFvet?
Roasted:)
Anyone who believes that Hussein DOESN’T want Iran to have a bomb is living in a fantasy world. The Prophet Obama would be thrilled to have a bomb hit Dallas or some other major red state city. Then, The One We Have Been Waiting For will surrender to Iran and all will be right in His Islamic World.
I heard on Fox last night he stepped away from the Xmas party to chat talk to someone regarding how they will vote last night.
Regarding Bachmann I appreciate her being upfront with the comment.
Now what about everyone one else yesterday? All those phone calls that o and others made, What was stated?
Any want to take a guess on what he said?
I am surprised someone did not throw a net over Bachmann. My partner’s in-laws will be happy to know she is willing to vaporize them for the cause.
I hope that comment awoke him at 2 am and left him sleepless. It should have.
Barry loses no sleep over the state of the world. He probably smiles while dreaming of death and destruction.
Yes we should all listen to the woman who stated that we should not pay our debt even though we made our obligations financially since the American Revolutionary War. This woman is such a joke she needed to retire or face losing in one of the most Republican districts in the country. Please get off the stage and never come back. Ever.
