Though President Obama has not yet signed it into law, Rep. Michele Bachmann introduced legislation on Monday to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the health care reform package passed by Congress on Sunday. Text of Bachmann’s bill can be read here.
Bachmann’s office sent this statement announcing the bill:
“It’s no secret, President Obama and Democrat leaders have ignored the will of the people and have chosen to ram through their trillion-dollar health care bill despite the American people’s overwhelming objection to it. It’s future generations, our children and grandchildren who will pay the price for our government’s arrogance and recklessness, and the American people won’t ever forget the irresponsible actions of this Administration and Democratic Majority. After all, government answers to the people, not the other way around. I’m asking my colleagues to join me in repealing this monstrosity of a bill.”

On the one hand, it’s nice to see that she’s finally working. Then again, does she really think the Republicans have the votes to repeal the bill the House just passed? And even if, by some amazing, crazy miracle, they did, Obama would just veto it anyway. So basically, Michele is just wasting everyone’s time. Way to represent the 6th District!

Yeah!!! right on Chayanov!! Just who does she think she is, wasting time on trying to repeal the new capital gains tax, or the new medicare tax?? What? You mean you didn’t read the bill? You’re pretty darn clueless, aren’t ya? It’s ok, it’s our secret. Dumba**.

Not nearly so clueless as Michele (or you, apparently).

Darn it, part of my response was cut off.
You didn’t address my post at all — that it was insane for Michele to try to repeal a bill the day after it passed, when it hasn’t even been signed into law yet. So not only are you clueless, you have serious problems with reading comprehension. And I seriously doubt you’ve read the bill, if you can’t be bothered to read a few lines on a blog.
