Michele Bachmann Announces She Quits Amid Investigation

Bachmann said, And rest assured, this decision was not impacted in any way by the recent inquiries into the activities of my former presidential campaign or my former presidential staff. It was clearly understood that compliance with all rules and regulations was an absolute necessity for my presidential campaign. And I have no reason to believe that that was not the case.

It might be clearly understood by Bachmann, but not by the FBI, the Congressional Ethics Office, the special prosecutor in Iowa, the FEC, and all the other agencies that are investigating her 2012 presidential campaign. Two weeks ago, it was reported that the FBI had joined the investigation into Michele Bachmanns presidential campaign, but the media wants to pretend like this never happened. In fact, most mainstream media outlets are quoting Bachmans denial and taking it at face value.

The media has taken the same excuse that they crafted for Sarah Palin, that she was an undisciplined conservative star who flamed out, and glued it on to Michele Bachmann. The problem is that in Bachmanns case it doesnt fit. It isnt a surprise that Rep. Bachmann would deny everything surrounding the ethics investigations in her video. That is exactly what she is supposed to do. She is not going to admit that she is quitting because of allegations of misuse of funds, theft, and money laundering, among other crimes.

Michele Bachmann didnt choose to quit on a whim. She quit as a preemptive strike to stop this scandal from either costing her the election next year, or bringing her down later. The media has chosen to ignore the real evidence in the Bachmann scandal, while turning Republican edited Benghazi emails into national news. The media has been the Republican Partys obedient lapdog when it comes to chasing bogus Obama scandals, but they have no interest in scandal that swallowed up a national Republican.

The double standard is obvious.

It doesnt matter to the media that Republicans are mostly lying about the Obama scandals. The media could care less that Bachmann lied throughout her retirement video. They arent even bothering to ask why Bachmann chose to quit via a YouTube video instead of a press conference. (The answer is that Bachmann didnt want to have to answer any media questions about the ethics scandal.)

If President Obama decided to make a YouTube video debunking the Republican scandals against him, the mainstream media would blow a gasket and immediately assume that the president was hiding something. Michele Bachmann, who is really hiding something and quitting, gets a free pass from our crumbling and decrepit fourth estate.

Princess Crazy Eyes is most likely splitting because the heat is getting too hot, but the media is too busy chasing down what Obama knew about Benghazi to bother with something as small as a Republican member of Congress quitting while allegations of felonious activity swirl around her.

The greatest irony of all is that roughly two weeks ago Bachmann stood before the national media and called for Obama to be impeached, only to find herself chased from office by her own or her staffs illegal activities.

What happened to all that bravado?

If she thought she stood a chance of winning she would hold onto that seat for dear life.

She has to know if she runs for president she'll be laughed off stage again. More likely she's sweating bullets as the FBI closes in on the dirty dealing she did with super pacs and her laughable attempt at a campaign.

She believes she can hop the same gravy train as Palin and Demint.

Seriously? buy a book by this clown? Pay $100k for her to give a speech?

She'll be doing nudies in Penthouse and a sex tape at "Marcus' Leather Shoppe" in 2 years.
