I'm sure that's probably one of the least ridiculous things that loon believes...
Mr. Coffee Nerves
2011-12-29 11:43:27 AM
Remember, this woman is polling between 6-11 percent of likely GOP voters in Iowa.
That's why the internet must be destroyed. Back in the day you'd have someone thinking "Boy, I can only achieve a full erection if a Bill Cullen episode of 'The Joker's Wild' is playing and I'm strapped to a Radio Flyer wagon and sodomized by a meth-addled Great Dane while a troop of Cub Scouts sprays Pam Baking Spray into my ears and the whole thing is being captured by a pastel artist who used to do landscaping for Ronnie Milsap. I'm really a sick person and I need to hide."
Now, that person can simply search for those terms and find 100,000,000 hits -- we've given the loons a sense of community. Loons who look at Michele Bachmann and think "Oh, yeah. We need *that* yammering into the microphone during a time of crisis."

I love the presumption that Obama and the White House are interested enough in Bachmann's campaign to actively try and thwart it. The woman barely ranks as a gadfly at this point.

The caller said: "Michele Bachmann is up against not only the other candidates, but up against President Obama, who has Facebook, Twitter, Google, and YouTube in its back pocket. I believe that helped him win the last election. No president should have the monopoly of those companies in their back pocket."
To which Bachmann responded: "I absolutely agree, Jonathan. We have seen, whether it is the head of Facebook or Google, it is clear there is an alliance with the obama administration, as well as with NBC."
"Corporations are people too, my friend."

Ha! But why NBC and not MSNBC? Was it just a slip? She doesn't do that a lot that I've seen. She's actually a pretty articulate raving lunatic.

I think the most idiotic thing about the statement isn't the dumbf*ck conspiracy.
It's that it shows that she and this other fellow have no idea how those companies operate. Aside from Google, they are entirely use driven. So it's not the corporations being pro-Obama or whatever. It's the users.

Michele discovered this bias when she tried to Google "Constitution" and after "Co" the dialog box automatically filled in "Completely shaved well-muscled succulent men with dongs like bell clappers naked as jaybirds" and Marcus ASSURED her he wasn't using her computer while she was on the shiatter.

Yes, of course. Mark Zuckerberg (and the people he ripped off) developed Facebook in 2004 for the express purpose of helping then-Senator Obama (who was a virtual unknown in national politics).
Twitter is in Obama's pocket, as well, as evidenced by the current trending topics:
#Laptopoutofjuice
#BiebersNannyWouldSay
#DigaUnaMentira
#HowtoEnd2012
Michael Redd
Amancio Ortega

It all makes sense, now.

9/10. 1 point withheld for neglecting to mention Dicker & Dicker of Beverly Hills. Otherwise, a near-flawless performance. Amana RadarRange would also have been an acceptable substitute.

She has to do this to discredit Google. Because every time she spits out a crazy lie people are able to look it up on Google and prove that it is a lie in 5 minutes. By claiming all of these conspiracy against her she hopes that people will stop Googling her lies because they will believe that Google is part of the conspiracy against her.
But on a real note, there are a lot, and I mean a lot, of GOP supporters out there that believe Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, and a few other tech companies are some big Soros funded socialist scheme to take over the information in the US.
