Breitbart carries water for Bachmann, and it's a LOT of damn water.

"Matthews, like a rabid dog with a bone, has twisted Rep. Bachmann’s statement and attempted to make it appear as though she is denying that slavery ever happened, or suggesting that Rep. Bachmann thinks our forefathers eradicated slavery. Get the difference? Adams, Franklin and Jefferson are forefathers, Lincoln, Grant and the politicians of the mid-nineteenth century are forebears. Since Mr. Matthews has had many days to reflect on the actual text of Ms. Bachmann’s speech we can no longer give him the benefit of the doubt and suggest that he is merely mistaken. No, at this point the only conclusion to reach is Mr. Matthews is lying."

"Matthews thinks that this is “Balloon Head” talk and some sort of dangerous, revisionist history. He has called Rep. Bachmann ignorant for making the statement. Unfortunately for Mr. Matthews, and the NBC News brand, history is actually on Rep. Bachmann’s side."

"Pennsylvania and Massachusetts abolished slavery in 1780; Connecticut and Rhode Island did so in 1784; New Hampshire in 1792; Vermont in 1793; New York in 1799; and New Jersey in 1804. Furthermore, the reason that the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa all prohibited slavery was a federal act authored by Rufus King (signer of the Constitution) and signed into law by President George Washington which prohibited slavery in those territories."

"And here are some quotes from our forefathers showing their positions on slavery:"

5. well ain't that some shit

Thanks for "dumbing it down," Brietfart.

Michelle Bachmann is just too intellectual for the general populace to understand.

6. Breitbart is in no position to criticise anyone for twisting words

At least Matthews didn't edit her damn video footage to make her say things she never actually said. Or intersperse footage of himself dressed as a pimp.

7. How is this fraud still employed? He falsified a news story. Zero credibility.
