Ladies and gentleman, Michele Bachmann has opened her mouth again.
Right Wing Watch?stated that Bachmann spoke with Numbers USA and shared her plan on how to help curtail the crisis at the border and the oncoming ?war against the American people.?
Bachmann:
?What I believe we should do is have a 100 percent tax on remittances, the money that illegal aliens send back to these countries? What we have to recognize is this truly is a war against the American people.?
Bachmann’s solution stems from her belief that Central American countries are laughing at the US because they are working with the ?international criminal cartels? to make money.
Bachmann in a statement to CNS News: (Warning: This is a right wing news source)
?The United States is furthering this international criminal cartel enterprise. We are furthering it because we are offering the gold at the end of the rainbow and we are stopping no one from coming in.?
CNN allowed Bachmann air time on ?Crossfire? where she also shared that the United States was being invaded by immigrants. When asked if she was referring to the children stuck at the border as invaders by host Van Hones, she did not give any further details.
Right Wing Watch pointed out a very important thing to consider. This tax idea would make it impossible for legal immigrants to send money home to their families. The fact that she refers to the children stuck at the border as invaders (even in a roundabout way) is just an attempt at eliciting some sort of fear that we are endangered by these children. It’s a pretty low attempt too.
So, let me get this right. People actually elected this woman? Someone allowed this woman to be a member of the House Intelligence Committee? There is a word in there that she is lacking? obviously. I’ll let you guess which word it is.
Check out this clip from CNN’s “Crossfire” of Bachmann’s appearance.
