CNN has announced that [Michele Bachmann's] speech will be shown in full in addition to broadcasting the speech from GOP Rep. Paul Ryan, who was picked for the official response by the Republican leadership.

...

CNN's decision to air Bachmann's speech ... is angering liberals ... Bachmann's Tea Party brew could end up making Ryan's speech look moderate and reasonable in comparison ... It could create a fundamental imbalance -- two Republicans responding to one speech from Obama -- and that there's no way CNN would allow a liberal Dem to offer a response from the left, as Bachmann is doing from the hard right.

...

Granting such a high profile to Bachmann's Messianic Tea Party air won't help the GOP manage the already difficult task of offering a response that has a chance of competing with Obama's speech.
