She is a hypocrite and went so far as to use this issue for a fund raiser. It’s called what is it so many like to say? Fully vetting the candidates. Turn about is fair play.

Naa, not on this issue. I sense DESPERATION instead.
Did she go around BRAGGING about their Dream Act?
Did she continue to defend her vote?
Did she call people that oppose her vote “heartless”
The criteria for participating in migrant and seasonal Head Start programs is low family income and agricultural employment, she said. “Since the Head Start program was started in 1965, we have never asked families if they are citizens, and it’s never been a requirement,” she said.
Migrant and seasonal Head Start programs operate in 39 states and serve more than 30,000 migrants and 3,000 children of seasonal farm workers, she said.
They serve children from 6 months to school age and also provide a variety of health, nutritional and transportation services.
United Migrant Opportunity Services operates eight migrant and seasonal Head Start programs in Wisconsin that serve 530 children.
“Several kids and babies died in the fields because parents were fearful of sending them to Head Start,”

Not all American children of tax paying American Citizens qualify to be in the program and get free baby-sitting and viddles.

Representative Bachmann voted YES
Of interest, Texas Rep Poe, who is VERY strong on immigration, voted NO. He is also the one who has some legislation that I don't see Bachmann co-sponsoring. She could be making an effort to help us this very minute, more than words on a campaign trail.
I suppose Rep Poe could be heartless and Bachmann was just showing heart for those poor, children, who are "limited English proficient and children of migrant or seasonal farm workers".
I think Bachmann needs to come out with a real plan, not just *I support a fence and I will have the states and ICE's back.* Lets hear a REAL plan! If she is so pure on this subject, as she claims.
Bachamnn refuses and consistently skirts the issue of what what she would do with all the illegals living here, once the border is secure.
