So plain and simple, there's absolutely no way this kid knew of Michelle bachman's political leanings, and there for was coached by his mother. I agree with the other comments that kids his age should be kids and using him for any reason is bad taste. Also Bachman has no chance, and is no longer talked about in the press. So I'm saying this stunt did nothing and exploited a child. All Kinds of sad.

Are you high? Right wing media is juvenile 24-7. That is the strategy of right wing media, to keep you in a childlike state; too stupid and frightened to think for yourself. I agree that this is juvenile, but it succeeded because Bachmann is a bigoted, ignorant, dishonest and unpopular political figure of fun in the eyes of the public. I don't think they could have gotten away with it with anyone else in the GOP field, except for Santorum and possibly Perry. >> ^quantumushroom:

If someone claiming to be Right Wing pulled a juvenile stunt like this on, say, Ellen DeGeneres or Michelle Obama the first and loudest voices denouncing it would be from the Right. That's the difference.

Yes, because they're always so quick to loudly denounce all the racist, bigoted, childish and/or vitriolic comments that emmanate from the maws of Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly, etc.

You who think this is appropriate have no sense of decorum, humanity, or decency.
Just saying...
Your parents did not teach you very well.


Damn, if only I had those things I too could be as retarded as Bachmann. Oh well....

Your video, The Roots diss Michell Bachman on the Jimmy Fallon Show, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

And if it weren't for you meddling kids, I would have gotten away with it. >> ^rex84:

Who ever said anything about Jimmy Kimmel? I mean, the title clearly says Jimmy Fallon. Whatever dude. >> ^rex84:
Umm, that's Jimmy Fallon...


Pesky URL. Otherwise we'd have perfect control over the historical record...

@CaptainObvious
Just like rich people won't eat beans and cornbread,
News managers (the persons who run a story, or stick a story in a drawer)
have a bias towards news they think is important to their target audience.

If this "news manager" is trying to get Bill Gates to watch the news, he's going to run a segment on the new Microsoft Zune, going to run
* Cancer survivor gets a new puppy
* Apple sauce day is tommorrow in sticklick county
* Can Ipods cause traffic accidents?

So, the protest doesn't fit on the menu.

another reason is that the definition of impartiality is difficult to understand. If 10K lefties protest, does that mean I give Michelle bachman equal time with the protest?

Bachman didn't need the audio and video effects to be funny.


But they didn't hurt.

I havent watched this video, but it seems a little rude to say that Bachman is in a coma.

Bachman didn't need the audio and video effects to be funny.

Some beautiful people are beautiful on the inside too!

Give Women Power! Empowering women is the most useful tool in the battle with poverty around the world. And check out European countries that have equal levels of male and female representation, they seem to have happier countries.

I personally believe that while there are some exceptions like Palin and Bachman, more women than men have an empathic extension that should be the first thing we look for in a leader.

OK, we get it...we've heard all this ideological stuff from Bachman before.
When will she actually put forward some policies? I thought we might finally get some substance out of this video when she started on her policies concerning milk at prison parties...and then she just veered right off into sugar fountain fairies. We don't need to hear your views on sugar fountain fairies...the entire GOP field is towing the conservative line on sugar fountain fairies!
And please Bachman, no more about the chinese shooting fricken' laser beams at our satelites.
That just makes you sound crazy.


Ha ha ha.......oh man, you should write the scripts for these people
