Michele Bachmann: A Crying Woman Came Up To Me After The Debate And Told Me Newt Gingrich Is Paying Money To Tea Party Groups For Their Endorsement

I made the part up about the "crying woman," but yes, that is the newest allegation from Ms. Bachmann.

Michele Bachmann lives in a strange world. People talk about "moral relativism." Presumably they would claim she's not a moral relativist.

But truth is an objective fact, is it not?

Ms. Bachmann seems to confuse premises which are politically helpful to her for premises which are actually true.

That seems like moral relativism to me -- the world is not as it is, but as I perceive it to be.

I don't believe Newt Gingrich is paying off Tea Party groups, if only for the simple reason Newt Gingrich doesn't have enough money to do so. It's only lately he's started getting good fundraising going.

The local Tea Party chapters are pushing back, saying it's a lie.

But Michele Bachmann "hears" this or something.

She would like it to be true.

Ergo, it is true.
