Gerorge Stephanopoulos:
"For example, earlier this year you said that the Founding Fathers who wrote the Constitution and the Declaration of Indepedence worked tirelessly to end slavery. Now with respect Congresswoman, that's just not true. "
It is true and George is wrong. Although Michele could have answered the question better.
Why was she invited on GMA? How many times have others been on?
George was wrong and yet was ridiculing Michele for her ignorance. Could he possibly have an argument with her expression "tirelessly"? Do leftists make fun of Michele because of the results achieved? Slavery was not abolished but progress was made. Good arguments laid the foundation for the end of slavery. More negotiation and debate would be needed. When debate failed to achieve the ends then battles began.
There is a benefit in this event that some people will review our history. It is sad that such things are forgotten. The founding fathers are revered for what they accomplished but also for what they set in motion. They started a country but set up a framework for the government of a people that has become the greatest that the world has ever known.
Liberty is the key to unlocking man's potential and the founders recognized it was important for all. They failed to achieve it in their lifetime.
Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin, Mason etc were all opposed to slavery as documented recently in many columns but notably by Mark Levin on his facebook page.

The frustrating part is that to so many people in America Michele Bachmann has lost the argument. Ignorant George wins because no one knows any better. So the less educated wins. That disturbs me. Even if some one were to point this out to George he would never make an apology to Bachmann nor educate the public of our country's history in restitution of his error. Just look at all of the comments at the end of the transcript. So many people admitting they hate Michele and calling her stupid.
She was right.
