Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) refused Sunday to retreat from her characterization of the Obama administration as a “gangster government.”
The House Tea Party Caucus founder said, “I don’t take back my statement on gangster government,” a phrase she used at a tea party gathering in April. “I think that there have been actions that have been taken by this government that I think are corrupt,” she said during her appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
She hammered at the administration Sunday for $105 billion included in last year’s health care overhaul law for its implementation, regardless of the questions put to her. Bachmann called on the White House last week to apologize for the funding, which the Congressional Research Service reported in October.
The money was “hidden in various parts of the bill,” she said Sunday. “Members of Congress didn’t even know this money was in the bill, because we couldn’t read the bill before it was passed, because it wasn’t given to us but hours before we had to vote for it,” she said.
Bachmann said she hasn’t “made a decision either way about plans for” entering the 2012 presidential election.
“We can do so much better, she said. “And that’s what I’m talking about with people in the next few months. We need to think very strongly. A second administration of Jimmy Carter wouldn’t have done this country any favors. We need to make sure we don’t have a second Barack Obama administration.”
When asked if she had a timeline for making a decision about running, she responded, “I think there’s a normal course of events when a decision like that will be made. And if I choose to go down that road, I’ll make the decision.”
