Book Description

December 1, 2011 1118197674 978-1118197677 1
This fact-packed exposé reveals all the dirty little secrets that Michele Bachmann would rather you didn't know

Since Michele Bachmann became a front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, journalists have been plumbing the depths of the well-regarded blog Dump Bachmann for material on her. Now the bloggers themselves pour forth a decade's worth of research and analysis to show that, no matter what you've heard about Bachmann, there's worse. Much worse. After dogging her heels for the past decade, they reveal the blood-curdling truth about the woman who may well become the Republican Party’s 2012 presidential nominee.

  • Describes Bachmann's faith-based antischool agenda and antigay crusade
  • Explores her fellow travelers, her problematic pastors, and criminal supporters, any of whom could become her Rev. Jeremiah Wright
  • Reveals the boondoggles she's supported, the pernicious legislation she's championed (but, fortunately, almost never passed), and her foreign policy, which boils down to Jesus will be her Secretary of Defense
  • Exposes the truth behind the notorious "Bathroomgate" incident
  • Uncovers the influence of outside money on Bachmann's campaigns, causes, and policies

Democrats disappointed by Obama, Republicans embarrassed by their party's shallow field of candidates, and moderate independents looking for a reasonable choice need to know all they can about presidential contenders. The Madness of Michele Bachman provides deep background they won't find in the mainstream media.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Michele Bachmann is even meaner, wackier & more hypocritical than you thought

Sure, she's virulently antigay, antichoice, antigreen, and antiscience. Sure, she's famous for claiming that the Founding Fathers ended slavery, accusing fellow U.S. representatives of being anti-American, and other "Bachmannia." But no matter what you've heard about Michele Bachmann, there's worse—much worse. In this startling exposé, the bloggers at DumpBachmann.com, who have been dogging her heels for the past decade, reveal the frightening truth about the woman who could become the Republican Party's 2012 presidential nominee.

Discover the real stories behind:

  • Bachmann's long-standing, faith-based, antischool agenda

  • "Bathroomgate"—Bachmann's claim to have been detained by two lesbians in a public bathroom

  • The influence of outside money on her efforts and policy positions

  • Bachmann's use of tele-town halls to avoid direct, unscripted contact with constituents

  • Her fanatical fellow travelers, questionable pastors, and criminal supporters

  • Bachmann's political boondoggles, pernicious (but failed) legislation, and fairy-tale foreign policy

Whether you're a disappointed Democrat, an embarrassed Republican, or a sane independent, The Madness of Michele Bachmann tells you what you need to know to scratch one candidate off your list of possible presidential nominees.

4.0 out of 5 stars God told me to RUN for President December 29, 2011
Format:Paperback
Interesting fair-minded review from the Republican founder and two co-authors of the Dumpbachmann.com blog for over seven years, and many Bachmann wins in a very Republican MN06 district. Covers Bachmann's entire political career starting with Bachmann's early politics influencing charter school curriculums, through Minnesota State election, Congress and RUN for president because God told her to.

Also steps back into the Wayback Machine for a look at Michele's early life in Wisconsin and a broken home, leading to her born again Christian foundation and first trip to Israel. God also tells her to marry Marcus, who she wasn't sure she liked, AND to become a lawyer AND to run for Congress before he told her to run for president.

Quick easy read at an almost frantic pace of trying to understand how someone this non-mainstream, with almost no Congressional record of accomplishment could possibly think they are presidential material. The Dumpbachmann.com authors chronicle Bachmann's pretzel twisted truth telling and an amazing ability to look credible on a first & second impression while repeating Fact Checked Lies. The terrifying reality of a proclaimed Theocrat with Glen Beck End-Timer associations and Christians United For Israel cheering team, will make you cringe at what a Bachmann Presidency would do to the separation of church and state. YES, First Husband Marcus WILL lead mandatory prayers from the white house at 6am & 6pm, and YES you will participate. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Four stars only because I wanted MORE.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moonbat Michele's greatest misses December 11, 2011
Format:Paperback
This book accurately captures America's worst member of Congress and uses her own words and insane ideology to show just how awful of a human being she is. It's truly sad that someone as terrible as she is can be elected to Congress, and the idea that some Republicans think that she is capable being President of the United States is as crazy as any other idea Michele has floating around in her vacant head.

The Madness of Michele Bachmann: A Broad-Minded Survey of a Small-Minded CandidateYes, I live in the 6th and have first hand experience with this loon. This is a wonderful book documenting this phoney. This is a perfect title, because she is one of the smallest minded persons I have ever met. Buy this book, it's great reading.

2.0 out of 5 stars Marginally worth reading
Poorly organized, poorly written. It does contain plenty of examples of Bachmann's nuttiness. It reads mostly like a collection of anecdotes.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK, I guess.
Lots of good information about Bachmann's history, but I didn't like the tone, which in my opinion is too juvenile. Conversational writing style could use an edit.
