Bachmann: Tarryl Clark ‘brazenly and blatantly lied about what I said’

On Chris Baker’s radio program on Thursday, Rep. Michele Bachmann defended herself against ads being run by her DFL opponent Tarryl Clark. Bachmann said that Clark lied about her statements in support of BP and that the campaign colored her teeth to make her look bad.

“I have never once said that BP is not liable or that they shouldn’t be 100 percent of what they owe or that the taxpayers should pay a dime,” Bachmann told Baker (MP3).

Bachmann said her concerns were that Obama would give BP’s money to victims of his choosing. “This is the first time we have ever taken oil spill money and given it to the president so that he can personally give it out to whichever victim he wants. that’s what my comment was about.”

She continued, “My opponent has just so brazenly and blatantly lied about what I said., so it just shows you out of the gate that these people are not telling the truth and they don’t plan to and so if they are altering how i look, coloring my teeth, it just shows you who they are and how low they’ll go.”

Bachmann added: “My teeth are white by the way just so everyone knows.”

Here’s the original photo of Bachmann, followed by the photo taken from Clark’s ad:

Michele Bachmann, a nominee for Politifact.com’s 2009 “Lie Of The Year”, is whining about lies?

ROFLMAO!

Politifact.com has fact checked 10 statements by Bachmann; all – ALL – of them were found “false.”

Bachmann called the fund ‘extortion’ and as far as President Obama giving money to those of his choosing is a complete lie. It is not being run by President Obama. The same guy that oversaw the 9/11 victims fund is overseeing the BP fund. She lies, and lies and nobody actually calls her out espcially in our local media (except online media). Bachmann said that BP should pay, but it all claims should go through our court system. That worked out well for those harmed by the Exxon Valdez oil ‘spill’ disaster, didn’t it. 20 years later the courts drastically cut the money intended for the victims and cleanup.

Ms. Bachmann has a history of amusing misstatements which would be funny if they were (a) actual misstatements not her honest opinion or (b) the mutterings of my old aunt or (c) at least not from an elected official.

How the heck does this nut get re-elected?

Anyhow, here is a story about Bachmann that uses her words against her (hey, she has the right to remain silent…which she would tell you is a right afforded to her by the Declaration of Independence).

VERY FUNNY >>>>>>>>>>>>>

“IOKWARDI”?

And the photo doesn’t color her teeth. It’s just a washed out photo. The persecution complex strikes again.

Since the president can’t do whatever he wants with the gush fund, Bachmann is lying about that. Maybe she didn’t know how it worked at first (not that she refrains from comment), but by now she knows. Liar.

Michele, your lies are legendary.

You were so caught up in attacking Obama, you didn’t realize the full meaning of what you said. Sounds like a Freudian Slip to me.

You simply have no moral ground left on which to stand.

Dennis’ silence to date here is deafening given his ardor for this lying, self-serving demagogue.

Tarryl Clarke, is a solid feet on the ground person who cares about her constituents — as apposed to worrying about the color of her teeth! Actually the second photo is much more of a representation of you — it reflects what you really are, soulless and vapid, and that is sad to see and say about another human being.

Michelle, life has a way of settling its own scores, i.e. “What goes around comes around” and you sister dear are behaving like a very wicked person, but apparently there is a coven around you that gives you a false sense of reality, you are a small percentage living on the darkside.

I wish you peace and hope for you that you can see the dark place you are in — and can come into the light — life is very short and there is much to do.

I wonder if Michele Bachman has any mirrors in her house?
I think not because her horns and her tail would be showing! She is an embarrassment to Minnesota with her constant lies!

Michelle Bachmann is a LIAR the nerve of her to even suggest that the words that came out of her own mouth are are not the very words that she said, there are so many clips of her making an utter fool out of herself and does so with NO SHAME as treats the people of MN as if they are gulliable uneducated fools, she is more concerned with her looks and is the epitomie of no ones home but the light are on

Wow.

Considering all this vitriol and ad hominem, she must be doing something right, eh, David?
