Michelle Bachmann announces she has given birth more times than man at town hall.

[Raschel]

"I'll tell you what, I've given birth here probably more
times than you, sir," Bachmann said. "I've given
birth in the Stillwater hospital and I'll tell you it is the
finest care you could ever receive."

1. Darn! I guess that puts the kaibosh on those rumors about Bachmann and Anne Coulter. n/t

[Deja Q]

2. Birth to what, lizards?

of course she's given birth more times than he has. He is a male and has a penis. Biological males are incapable of gestating and giving birth.

Unless the male was making a comment about the delivery room, but since this is about nuttybachmann I really don't want to read the whole article...

[KingFlorez]

3. Hmmm, I wasn't aware that men can have babies?

Oh, that's because they can't! What an idiot this woman is. And she wouldn't have gotten any good care had she not had high end insurance, why didn't she talk about that?

[BattyDem]

4. Probably?

"I'll tell you what, I've given birth here probably more times than you, sir."

:rofl:


Um, Michelle ... since he's a man, I think it's a pretty safe bet that you've given birth more times than he has. Not probably ... definitely! :P

[Gormy Cuss]

6. Maybe she's not sure if she's given birth?

:rofl:

[Raschel]

8. If she's anything like Palin, she just plops 'em out like nothin', straight off the plane.

Could be easy to forget.

[stevedeshazer]

5. Leave Michele alone. It's simply a new way to explain "the birds and the bees" to her constituents.

Some of them haven't figured it all out yet, God bless 'em.

[Raschel]

7. This was Bachmann's way of responding to a man who interrupted her

as she was telling stories of babies being born in the hallways of overcrowded British hospitals.

Palin and Bachmann. Twins separated at birth?

[dflprincess]

9. Next thing she'll tell us is that the Brits are turning off incubators

so the NHS can save money. Maybe she'll start a war with them over it.

[stevedeshazer]

11. I was joking.

But, you knew that.

;)

[Raschel]

20. I knew. But I didn't have a funny comeback for you.

:hi:

[stevedeshazer]

29. !

:hi:

[Arkana]

10. Yes, but when you give birth to reptilian abominations

spawned from the depths of Satan's anus it's a bit different Michele. Ever seen "It's Alive!"?

[Norrin Radd]

12. He should've said, "I know...I've seen the movie 'Aliens'."

[asdjrocky]

13. Didn't her son recently join Obamas AmeriCorps?

I just love saying that.

[City Lights]

14. MOTO.

:dunce:

[Fleshdancer]

15. Really? And how long was she able to stay to recover?

When I gave birth in Japan, they wouldn't let me leave until 5 days after giving birth. No c-section, absolutely NO complications, just an average healthy 13-hour labor for my first (and only) born. I have friends here in the US who were released earlier than that after a c-section which creeps me out.

[Raschel]

21. It's out the door the next day. For mastectomies.

I wasn't ready to go home. :(

[Fleshdancer]

26. HOLY CRAP!

:grr:

That is truly barbaric Raschel. I'm so sorry you had to experience that. :(

[Raschel]

31. Thanks so much FD.

:hi:

[treestar]

16. Typical right winger, only her personal experience matters

I bet she suddenly has many "Canadian friends" unsatisfied the the Canadian system, too.

[Hansel]

27. Exactly. I've had two babies in MN hospitals and got eclampsia with both.

Eclampsia is a rare disorder during pregnancy and is usually prevented by good prenatal and postnatal care. In one case I got it pre-natal and the other post-natal because the nurse chose not to put in the doctor ordered IV when symptoms started progressing.

Eclampsia is the final stage of pre-eclampsia (a more common disorder) which frequently results in death of the baby, the mother or both. I guess I can be thankful both my babies and I survived.

Maybe I should have gone the Stillwater Hospital. What was I thinking? She is truly an idiot.

[LiberalFighter]

17. I would had rebutted back at her with "When was the last time you gave birth in a hospital"

On this planet? (That would be to challenge her on comparing hospital care nearly 20 years ago vs now.)

She has 5 kids and the oldest is about 23.


Even if her health care was comparable to what it was when gave birth to her kids I doubt it would be considered finest care you could ever receive.

Based on data provided by HealthInsight they have rankings within each state that would dispute Bachmann's claim. http://www.healthinsight.org/performance/hosp_rankings/hospitals.html

[wolfgangmo]

19. And she was a foster parent of 23 kids.

How was she able to afford a big house and all the trimmings for 5 kids when her husband stayed at home and she was only a stain on the state senate?

She fostered 23 kids, and her husband home schooled them. Minnesota pays foster parents about $1100 a month plus all insurance for the kids. 23 time 1100 is $25300 per month or a little over $300,000 a year. If you also add in the money that parents get waive in taxes for homeschooling in minnesota that puts her state taxes at zero. If one assumes that as a maximum and zero as a minimum that still gets her another $150,000 per year for about 20 years as her kids grow up. That is 3 Million Dollars of public money and basically a tax free house.

This means that she has been sucking at the public tit for a good long time now.

I wonder if anyone should point this out to her adoring fans. I can't wait for her to run with Palin. I'm, as they say in the south pacific, sharpening my knife in anticipation.

[Raschel]

22. If I knew how to post a pic on here, I'd show you a picture of a guy who really

lit into Bachmann and confronted her about her lies.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

18. I call bullshit....until she produces a gift certificate.

[Hansel]

28. Well if it is issued from another planet, I insist on the long form! nt

[jenmito]

23. "Probably"!

:rofl:

[SidneyCarton]

24. Well, that's hardly surprising...

Because the last time I checked, men can't give birth.

[1955doubledie]

25. She gave birth at a Town Hall?

Who knew? :shrug:

[Monk06]

30. David Cronenburg did a movie about her ........
