You may recall that last Friday, Representative Michele Bachmann (R, MN06) when on Hardball with Chris Matthews and called for an in-depth investigation of members of Congress to find out who is "pro America" and who is "anti America."  Obama, of course, is anti-America.

By Sunday evening through a LARGE netroots effort, her Democratic challenger El Tinklenberg had raised more than $680,000!  Currently, the amount of money raised is well over a million.  The DNCC has kicked in a million dollars to boot out the freshman representative, and the RNC has pulled her ads


Tinklenberg took that money and made a wonderful ad reminding us of ANOTHER reason we should be AGAINST Michele Bachmann.  She opposed the new GI Bill at the start and voted for the second rate version.  She did fall in line by the time it was clear that the new GI Bill had a HUGE bipartisan following and was assured of passage.

Here's the netroots paid-for Tinklenberg ad
