'Legislative Fraud'

By Jim Meyers and Ashley Martella, News Max

Rep. Michele Bachmann tells Newsmax that President Barack Obama, Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Nancy Pelosi should apologize to the American people for the $105 billion appropriation they "deceitfully" hid in the healthcare reform legislation.

The Minnesota Republican declares that the "stunning revelation" of the expenditure points to "one of the biggest lies we have ever seen."

Bachmann, founder of the House Tea Party Caucus, also asserts that Obama wants $8-a-gallon gasoline to drive America toward green energy, says Republicans should hire their own lawyer to represent the Defense of Marriage Act in court, and warns that a second Obama term would be "even worse" than a second Jimmy Carter term would have been.
