Bachmann: Prayer and fasting will help defeat health care reform
By Paul Demko 8/24/09 4:35 PM


On Wednesday Rep. Michele Bachmann was part of a star-studded “teletownhall” meeting to discuss health-care reform. The event, billed “Keeping Faith with the Unborn,” was sponsored by the Susan B. Anthony List, an anti-abortion advocacy group. The organization’s president, Marjorie Dannenfelser, claimed that there were some 350,000 listeners on the line.

Bachmann was joined by North Carolina Rep. Virginia Foxx, most famous for calling Matthew Shepard’s murder a “hoax,” and former Colorado Rep. Marilyn Musgrave, who made national headlines by refusing to concede after losing her re-election contest November. But even with such veteran political pugilists sharing the phone line, Bachmann managed to distinguish herself during the 90-minute phone call.

The 6th district Republican quoted the late British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, attacked Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius for receiving political contributions from a medical doctor who was murdered in May, and called on everyone to get down on their knees and pray that health care reform fails. Bachmann didn’t always make sense, but she undoubtedly scared the living daylights out of anyone on the line.

Bachmann repeated the myth, adopted early by Sarah Palin, that the health-care plans being debated in Congress would set up “death panels” to determine which old folks are entitled to health care. “Thank God that Sarah Palin said that,” she told the callers. “These are true.” .......(more)

6. Hey, you don't need God on your side when the Democrats are already there
Unfortunately enough, few in the Democratic party are even calling for single-payer healthcare.

8. A serious question about the UNBORN
Christians say life begins at conception so why is the fetus in the womb referred to by them as the UNBORN if he/she is alive? Very serious inquiry. I don't understand.

9. Dear Goddess, please save us from Michele Bachmann.
While you are at it, throw in Sarah Palin, Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin in that prayer. They are disgraces to our gender.

10. Look on the bright side. Just think of the mess she's going to make of the 2012 primariies
Edited on Wed Aug-26-09 04:45 PM by Monk06
Starting each speech with a prayer to God
to give her victory over the athiestic,
communistic, homosexualist Democrat Party.

Not to mention what she will say about her
RINO opponents.

Invest in popcorn now.
