This lady really needs to seek help

Quote:
In Japan...to wait in and get health care is almost impossible. You get on a list and you wait and you wait and you wait. But he said this is something people don't know: in Japan, people have stopped voicing their opinion on health care. There are things that are wrong with Japanese health care, but people [aren't] voicing. 'Well why is that,' I asked. He said it's 'Because they know that would get on a list and they wouldn't get health care. They wouldn't get in. They wouldn't get seen. And so people are afraid. They're afraid to speak back to government. They're afraid to say anything.' Is that what we want for our future? That takes us to gangster government at that point! And absolute abject corruption.
(The Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune subsequently fact-checked Bachmann's statements and was unable to find any evidence of such practices).

Bachmann is another lying Fundamentalist! She is a leader of the American Taliban.

I really wonder if she listens to replays of herself speaking.

Wow, sounds like tin foil hat time.

Why does anyone listen to these people anymore? This doesn't even pass the laugh test.

I can't believe the people of her district are proud of her, but she did win reelection.
