EXCERPTS:

Limbaugh writes that he is “a great admirer” of Bachmann, a potential 2012 presidential candidate.

“Far from being the fringe outlier depicted by the mainstream media — and all too often by some on the right — she is a strong spokeswoman for unapologetic conservatism. She is neither extreme nor unreasonable, which is why her philosophy has resonated with grass-roots conservatives,” he said.

Another reason he likes her: “She is unafraid to speak out against the crushing debt crisis we face.”
