Back Angle of Michele Bachmann getting Mic-Checked by Occupy Charleston

OccupyCharleston.org

TRANSCRIPT:
"Mic check!

Mic check!

This will only take a minute | We have a message for Mrs. Bachmann.

You capitalize on dividing Americans | claiming people that disagree with you | are unpatriotic socialists | and you promote discrimination.

This does not help the American People.

You parade as a grassroots candidate | but your campaign is funded | by Americans For Prosperity | a group that takes advantage | of legalized money laundering.

This does not help the American People.

You cater to the One Percent | you oppose paying hardworking Americans | a living wage | and refuse | to promote realistic solutions | to economic problems.

This does not help the American people.

This 501(c)(4) | is funded by the Koch Brothers | One of of many organizations | that engage | In misinformation| and drowns out the voice | of the American people | A disturbing result | of the Citizens United decision.

This does not help the American people.

We demand an end to legitimized corruption | through a constitutional reversal | of the Citizens United decision.

This will help the American people.

Have a pleasant day."

This needs to happen every time someone who claims to stand for Americans in Congress yet repeatedly fights for forcing working people into poverty tries to give a speech. Anywhere. That is how the working people in this country will win.

People talk about "having a discussion", but the discussion is being had on blogs and in newspapers. A public speech is neither the time nor the place for a discussion. It is the place for a show of strength. It is the place for powerful symbolic action.

@Zapppo At least they're doing something to get their voices heard.

This is what gives me hope for the country and our citizens.

These ppl are retarded, not organized, reading from sheets of paper instead of having it memorized. Didn't hear a word of their message. Need a new tactic if u guys want anyone to even be able to hear you. I never can hear their message, ever. bc they are stupidly repeating each other like drone zombies, half the tards are looking at their papers not saying anything & desperately trying to catch up. pathetic & ineffective, but hey, if it makes you feel better, spin your wheels.

[Loltochapel]

Look at the narrow-minded testosterone charged redneck in red shirt. What is a matter cant' stand to listen to a point of view that does not represent bigotry or a corporate agenda?! I swear the Tea Party attracts the most mentally vulnerable idiots at out there who are uncapable of critical thinking.

Hypocrites denying Michele Bachmann freedom of speech. They are not the 99%, they are the half of 1% denying freedom of speech with their so called mic checks.
