A year from now, I won't believe this.
From Crooksandliars.com:
First Matthews tried to get Bachmann to tell his audience, per Sarah Palin's homage to "pro-American places," what parts of America are anti-American. She danced around the question and kept harking on the talking points programmed into her playback. So then he tried another tack:
Matthews: How many Congresspeople, members of Congress are in that anti-American crowd you describe?
Bachmann: [Deer in the headlights]
Matthews: How many Congresspeople you serve with -- I mean, there's 435 members of Congress --
Bachmann: -- well right now --
Matthews: -- how many are anti-American in that Congress right now that you serve with?
Bachmann: You'd have to ask them, Chris, I'm focusing on Barack Obama and the people he's been associated with --
Matthews: But do you suspect that a lot of the people you serve with --
Bachmann: -- and I'm very worried about their anti-American nature.
Matthews: Well, he's the United States Senator from Illinois, he's one of the people you suspect as being anti-American. How many people in the Congress of the United States do you think are anti-American? You've already suspected Barack Obama. Is he alone, or are there others?
Bachmann: [Deer in the headlights]
Matthews: How many do you suspect of your colleagues do you suspect of being anti-American?
Bachmann: I would say, what I would say is that the news media should do a penetrating expose and take a look -- I wish they would. I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out, are they pro-America or anti-America? I think the people would love to see an expose like that.
