Mary Matalin Prefers the Victim Card to Fact Checking Michele Bachmann
Click here to view this media CNN’s John King asks his guests James Carville and Mary Matalin to fact check these statements by Michele Bachmann in her response to the State of the Union address yesterday. BACHMANN: Well, what did we buy? Instead of a leaner, smarter government, we bought a bureaucracy that now tells us which lightbulbs to buy and which may put 16,500 IRS agents in charge of policing President Obama’s health care bill. King actually bothers to start pointing out that her statement about the IRS agents is just not true and when he asks Matalin to weigh in, she pulls out the pity card for Bachmann and claims that liberals are attacking her because they just want to shut her up. She also asserts that it’s the Democrats that are propping her up on some equal footing with the president. Sorry Lady McCheney, but it’s the tea partiers and your network that decided to do that when airing her response. I agree with your husband, keep her crazy ass out there talking. They also never bothered to point out that it was George Bush, not Barack Obama that signed the energy bill that changed the standard on lightbulbs . Matalin was too busy pulling out the victim card for Bachmann.
