Courtesy of Kare 11 in Minneapolis:
A New Jersey teenager says she's received threats since challenging U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann to a debate over the Constitution.
Ann Myers challenged the tea party favorite in a letter dated April 29. After it started getting media attention last weekend, commenters on tea party websites have threatened to publish her home address and some have threatened violence.
The 16-year-old from Cherry Hill says several commenters have called her a "whore."
Her father, Wayne, says he's concerned for his daughter's safety.
But Cherry Hill Police Lt. William Kushina says anonymous online threats like these are usually empty.
Myers says the Minnesota congresswoman misstates or distorts facts about the Constitution.
Bachmann's office told The Courier-Post of Cherry Hill that it won't respond to the debate challenge.
What in the hell is wrong with these people? This is a child for fuck's sake!
This is EXACTLY the same kind of blowback that anybody who dares speak out about Sarah Palin, or tell some carefully hidden truth about her, is subjected to as well.
Well I for one an sick and tired of the bullying and intimidation tactics used by these assholes!
And what are they so angry about? The fact that they KNOW this child would destroy their idol in a simple debate>
So rather than have to admit they are supporting an empty headed moron, they attack a little girl. Very impressive. And sadly enough, not at all unexpected.
