Mediaite has one of the kinder reviews: Saturday Night Live took full advantage of host Miley Cyrus‘ cultural footprint this week with a hilarious sendup of her aggressively surreal We Can’t Stop video, instead featuring Republicans like John Boehner and Michele Bachmann vamping dirtily to We Did Stop (The Government), an ode to the current federal government shutdown. The piece …

“I think the reason is because President Obama can’t wait to get Americans addicted to the crack cocaine of dependency on more government health care. Because, once they enroll millions of more individual Americans it will be virtually impossible for us to pull these benefits back from people.” – Michelle Bachmann, speaking to World Net Daily.

“After an incredible run, Rep. Michele Bachmann  announced that she’s retiring from Congress at the end of her term. For eight years, she served more than the people of Minnesota–she served the families of America with her tireless stand for conservative values.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is collecting names and emails via their mass letter to bid Michele Bachmann good riddance. Twitchy is outraged. They’re always outraged.

Rep. Michele Bachmann announced this morning that she won’t run for reelection in 2014.
