“Hypocrite Michele Bachman”

Happens all the time in politics. You try to amend a bill - in this case to make it apply to LEGAL persons only, it fails, and then you vote for the much larger bill to keep the government running.

NOTHING SPECIAL HERE.

(but boy are the Perrybots desperate to save their candidate)

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.

Frankly I’d have to see the actual language where she supported “undocumented” students getting instate tuition. Instate tuition has been going on for a long time and had nothing to do with illegal immigrants.

Its also important to note that congressmen often get tagged with having supported bills due to voting yes on procedural votes which come well before an actual final vote as well.

The fact that this comes from a Perrytard makes it pretty questionable right off the top so I’ll have to read it all for myself.

A much larger bill to keep the government running? What was in this MN bill that was so critical?

Grasping at straws aren’t they?

The funny thing is, that you can tell the headline-only readers on this thread. They ignore (and probably never read, but if they had, would still ignore), the fact that Bachmann proposed an amendment that would make the tuition ONLY for citizens. Did Perry Veto the Texas Dream act? Did he lobby to have illegals not get benefits?

No, and neither is going to be President of the U.S.A., but the “pick your pony” crowd has a logical breakdown in their rabid attacks of one another. Humorous, but sad.

I don’t think Michele is a threat to Perry any longer.

Perhaps he could go after Romney?
