Michele Bachmann: End Medicare And Social Security

Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann didn’t go to the Nashville tea party, but she did address the conservative Constitutional Coalition in St. Louis.  Bachmann says everybody in the system should get benefits, but then it’s time to close up shop. (via Think Progress)

Bachmann:But basically what we have to do is wean everybody else off. And wean everybody off because we have to take those unfunded net liabilities off our bank sheet, we can’t do it. So we just have to be straight with people. So basically, whoever our nominee is, is going to have to have a Glenn Beck chalkboard and explain to everybody this is the way it is.

The esteemed Heritage Foundation seems like it’s in love.

At one point, Heritage Foundation scholar Matt Spalding, who had been whispering in Bachmann’s ear while other panelists spoke, exclaimed, “if there’s one person who everyone at Heritage has a crush on, it’s Michele Bachmann.”
