Michelle Bachman (R:Nuts) Obama Could Use the Census to Send People to Camps
Edited on Thu Jun-25-09 02:45 PM by Mari333

GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann was on Fox News this morning tying her conspiracy theories about President Obama to the Census. Bachmann united her Obama concentration camp theory and the Census, by stating that the Census was used to round up Japanese Americans and send them to internment camps during World War II, and Obama could do the same.

Here is the video from Think Progress:

5. Right. We've been doing the census since what, 1790?
It's not like this is Obama's big invention, not like the Doomsday Book of the William the Conqueror. Just when I didn't think she could get any dumber.

8. Let's hope conservatives make this a battle cry

The less people from red states who answer the census, the less representation they get in Congress and more federal money will go to blue states.

14. Michele Bachman supports sending people to RW teen camps.
http://dumpbachmann.blogspot.com/2009/03/know-truth-minnesota-teen-challenge.html

Speaking of sincerity on earmarks and wasteful spending... Michele Bachmann may not have sponsored her own earmarks, but she may have quietly supported other congress member's earmarks such as Senator Klobuchar's $500,000 earmark for MNTC's "Know the Truth" program. Readers may recall that Bachmann gave campaign donations from Frank Vennes Jr. to MN Teen Challenge after Bachmann's pardon request for the Tom Petters' associate and convicted felon was revealed following the FBI raids on Vennes' home and business.

Bachmann has not spoken out against the earmark for MNTC, even though Know the Truth is the epitome of wasteful, pork spending.

MNTC must be scared of losing that socialist money Bachmann derides, because they are defending Klobuchar's wasteful, socialist, porkulous earmark on the front page of their website:

Information Regarding Proposed Funding in 2009 Omnibus Bill

The 2009 Federal Omnibus Spending Bill contains a request for funds for Know the Truth, the Minnesota Teen Challenge drug and alcohol abuse prevention program. The Know the Truth program is completely non-religious in nature and has been presented to thousands of students throughout the state. In keeping with government regulations, all money received for this program is kept entirely separate from, and is never used towards our faith-based recovery program. Know the Truth has received excellent feedback from both students and school administrators.



Know the Truth, which claims to be an educational program has no lessons for the future listed on their website. On an archived page of the MNTC website, they even boast of not being professional:

We aren’t counselors or doctors, just simply individuals who have struggled with substance addiction and who now want to share with you our stories about our choices and our recovery.

21. I like camp.
Can I go? Will there be ponies?

All I can do is ridicule this woman and her stupid ideas. She's right up there with Pam Geller for lunatic fringe opinions.

22. We should encourage the Freepers to not participate in the Census
Then the populations of the red states will go down, and our representation in Congress will go up. Works for me.
