Minnesota DFL Party chairman Brian Melendez just gave TPM this statement, in response to Michele Bachmann’s call for an “orderly revolution” to save freedom from Barack Obama’s Marxism:
“Michele Bachmann must have missed the memo: The revolution already happened. The old way of doing business — her way of doing business — lost.
“We face the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. To overcome that crisis, Americans must come together, set our differences aside, and get to work. There is plenty of room for thoughtful, respectful debate and criticism. There is no room for hatred or for demonizing those with whom you disagree. Calling one’s colleagues ‘enemies’ and oneself a ‘foreign correspondent’ is not only a roadblock to results, it is the exact spirit and tone that the American people so overwhelmingly rejected.”
