Rep. Bachmann - Obama's Blown his wad, spending Orgy



Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-Minn.) — who was put on the Earth to help reporters deal with slow, rainy Mondays — had some interesting turns of phrase during a weekend rally with Gov. Tim Pawlenty.

Referring to President Obama's stimulus and budget, which she vehemently opposed, Bachmann said:

"We have seen an orgy of spending [break in the tape]. ... The government spent its wad. ... Notice there's no TelePrompter here."

Bachmann, hair whipping in the wind, standing in front of a huge American flag, also complained that Obama's tax policy was class warfare-ish:

"Instead of being the Great Uniter, this president is becoming the greatest divider we've ever had in the history of our country," she added. - Politico

Barack Obama has managed to ride out his first five months in office by blaming his predecessor for the economic tribulations he “inherited”, but new polling shows that excuse running out of steam.
