...Bachmann and her staff declined to talk to about the government assistance for the L.A. Times article. But asked about the issue on "Fox News Sunday," she insisted that she and her husband had not benefited at the expense of federal and state taxpayers.
"First of all," she said, "the money that went to the clinic was actually training money for employees. The clinic did not get the money. And my husband and I did not get the money either. That's mental health training money that went to employees."
As for the farm, she said it belonged to her father-in-law. "It's not my husband and my farm," Bachmann said. "And my husband and I have never gotten a penny of money from the farm."
As the Los Angeles Times reported on Sunday, however, in financial disclosure forms, Bachmann reported receiving between $32,503 and $105,000 in income from the farm, at minimum, between 2006 and 2009.

They have to be paid. I’d hate to think people are really as stupid as they appear to be.
A good conservative wouldn’t hire the RINO Rollins and have him go out and attack Palin (and not on her actions or policy) and then after he did it not require him to publicly apologize or resign.
Her “leadership” of the TEA Party caucus has been unproductive. She hasn’t been there.
It’s not bashing to say that her executive experience is nil. No executive positions held. There’s nothing more to be said about that.
Look's like they will have to get in line after you to dig through her trash. Besides, yesterday's smear was Bachmann was working for Romney. So now they will join you in digging through her trash?
I will say one thing for Bachmann. At least she goes on these shows and takes these questions, not always giving the answers I like. Cowards like Romney hide from interviews and just expect to be magically elected.
Hmm...I don’t think it’s Bachmann’s fault Palin hasn’t announced yet. As I’ve said many times here, if Palin was a declared candidate I don’t think Bachmann would ever have run. But since Palin has chosen to wait, Bachmann jumped in.
You poor guy, that hurts.
wow, this is DU worthy. I’m sure Governor Palin would be proud of you. :-)
Sounds like the same scumbag tactics used by media against Sarah Palin.
Two wrongs make a right only to the morally and ethically challenged.
Probably right.
It could be Mrs. Bachmann was referring to recently.

A good conservative wouldn't go all out for a RINO like McCain, especially against a conservative like Hayworth.
No, only a non candidate deserves to be the winner. Get it?
Because she has a vote? she voted against ending ethanol subsidies. She lied and said she did not recieve one penney from the farm? her words not mine.

Some have agendas and it is not worth arguing. That being said did the LA Times release the Obama tape yet?
I see you’ve already mastered the Bachmann camp tricks of changing the subject, misdirection and pretending that problems don’t exit. That didn’t take long, is there some kind of online video training? Or does it just come naturally?
I do not take ANYTHING from the MSM at face value, however, IF this report is true, I say IF..... then there are only a couple of questions that matter.
Was Whathername-Rollins lying then, or is she lying now?
If she lied about this, then what else has she lied about?
One thing is certain, she is going to get roasted.
So, what say you Mr. Rollins?
I actually think the MSM has gone easy on
Bachmann up to this point. I think they want her to take Iowa and maybe New Hampshire so that THEN they can destroy her and throw the Republicans into chaos. This plan will backfire though, because that is when Sarah will jump in and take everything.
