Michele Bachmann's new web video “No to Obamacare and Perrycare” VIDEO
Welcome Vision to America Readers!
Bachmann: “I oppose any governor or president who mandates a family’s healthcare choices”
Los Angeles, Calif. – Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann released a new web video today titled “No to Obamacare and Perrycare” in which she takes a stand against the abuse of executive power and crony capitalism. The video highlights her specific opposition to individual mandates in Obamacare and Governor Rick Perry’s executive order for a mandate requiring 12-year-old girls to take the HPV vaccine.
“Whether it’s Obamacare or Perrycare, I oppose any governor or president who mandates a family’s healthcare choices,” Bachmann states in the video. “Especially if the decision-making process occurs behind closed doors, bypassing legislative action, and favors campaign contributors over families.”
The following is full text of the video:
“Hi, I’m Michele Bachmann. There are many important issues in this presidential campaign – including the role of government, abuse of executive power and crony capitalism. As a mother of three daughters, I believe that parents are the ones who should decide whether or not their young daughters should receive injections for sexually transmitted diseases. These are decisions that are best left to parents, the children and their doctors and should take into consideration the child’s health and the family’s values.
“Whether its Obamacare or Perrycare I oppose any governor or president who mandates a family’s healthcare choices and violates the rights of parents on these issues – especially if the decision-making process occurs behind closed doors, bypassing legislative action, and favors campaign contributors over families. That’s not right. As President, I’ll do what’s right for families.”

Michele Bachmann: Is this is only way you can get attention from the media and voters? He has commented on this and admitted he made a mistake. Are you now a one issue candidate? Tell us what YOU want to do, not attack other candidates. I am weary of attack approaches. Give us your solutions.
hey anon . . .
if you had been following the campaigning all along you would have heard plenty of substantial comment from this lady, i for one have not made up my mind, however, Michelle is currently tied for first with me. and the other front runners in my book are not the ones that the press and jimmy the peanut vendor are touting as the front runners.

I really love Michelle Bachmann and she's right to oppose government-imposed vaccinations. One mistake by Perry on health care--a mistake he's admitted--does NOT equate to RomneyCare's or ObamaCare's massive socialist intrusions. Perry alas has taken much of the winds out of her sails, and now she's looking desperate to get it back. This isn't the way to do it, Michelle.
You are not telling the whole story. Not one child was innoculated, There is no scientific proof the shots cause mental retardation, andthere is proof the immunizations pervent cancer. Now there is information that teen age males should recieve the shot.I was in a tie supporting you and Perry, but now you have fallen of the list.I am verry disappointed with your actions.
Michelle...did your kids get vaccinated for Measles? Mumps? Rubella? all those "standard" childhood immuniazations that prevent illnesses? that sometimes have dire consequenses?
Perry admitted his mistake, move on to something more substantial. This is making you look like the lefty's want you to look.
every one here should realize that just the premis of perry wanting to force young girls to be be vaccinated without parental consent or knowledge is the absolutly appalling part of this.for this man to become our president and then possibly have similar thoughts and actions is the point michelle is trying to make you see.we all saw who obama was and who he hung out with and yet ignored all of that to get him in and now we know he had no practical experience and marxist leanings.when someone like michelle sounds the alarm pay close attention to it.and dont just fluff it off as campaighn rheteric because she makes an excellent point and shows the kind of leadership qualitties this country needs now.
Michelle Bachmann pulls off a rare feat: she speaks in a flat, dull Upper Midwestern monotone, but manages to sound shrill and jarring.
I used to like her plainspoken, blunt talk. I appreciated her willingness to discover and denounce the hidden appropriations in the Obamacare legislation that no one else was talking about (it showed diligence and a proactive attention to detail).
She started to lose me when she would get on stage--any stage, anywhere, everywhere--and bellow that Obama would be a one term president. She would say that--and not much else. On talk shows she sounded scripted and incapable of deviating from pre-set talking points.
Then she acquitted herself well in the first debate and had a couple of interviews in which she showed a more relaxed, at ease mind that ranged comfortably over various issues with intelligence.
But then she started to fall behind in the polls after Perry entered the race and she reverted to shrieking mode. Aside from being unappealing to the larger electorate, she has become unappealing to many of us who agree with many of her points--although not the demagoguery of the HPV vaccine.
She lacks the self-deprecating irony of Palin--and her timing. She appears to have no sense of humor. Despite reciting tax law credentials as a sign of intellectual accomplishment, she has a notable lack of fluency in speaking about the issues: it sounds like sloganeering.
Now, faced with criticism from the right calling her out on misinformation and mis-statement regarding the vaccine issue, she has dug in and hunkered down. One does not see determination and resiliency so much as stubborn rigidity.
Michelle Bachmann has many admirable qualities, and she is to be admired for her genuine accomplishments. But she is a flawed candidate who cannot build coalitions and address a larger audience: she cannot get to 51% to win; I doubt that she could get to 50% plus one. And she--unfortunately--has become disagreeable, the face of anger.
It's not about being a fist in a velvet glove: there is no velvet, it's all fist.
--J. Garcia
I was a big fan of Michelle, but she just lost my vote. I know the strategy is to go after the front-runner, but I don't like her tactics. She doesn't stand much of a chance anyway.
Michelle Bachmann is right.
I had been favorably disposed to the candidacy of Michelle Bachman.
NOT ANY MORE.
It's time for her to walk away.
It looks like her well-respected advisor, Ed Rollins, discerned a nasty streak in her and (rightfully) quit.
Those of us in the center and on the sidelines who are sincerely looking at all candidates, are just now picking up on her nastiness. It's not helping her, nor persuading others to consider conservative perspectives.
I had high hopes for Mrs. Bachmann, defended her for her "John Wayne birthplace mistake," tried to make amends to Elvis fans when she sang "Happy Birthday" to him on the anniversary of his death; but this is too much. She is trying to make political gain against a fellow Repub over something that NEVER happened. She needs to move on to her previous focus: "Making Barak Obama a one-term President."
If you really want to know the details of Rick Perry go to http://peskytruth.wordpress.com/2011/07/19/rick-perrys-negatives/. The guy who did this did extensive research on Perry. It answers a lot of questions, including what Michelle is speaking about. It's very well written and very well researched.

Of note are his ties to the Bilderberg Cartel and his being a keynote speaker at the annual convention of the Council on Foreign Relations! The CFR's goal is to end America's sovereignty and make us subservient to the United Nations and the International Criminal Court.
The Democrats let a smooth, articulate talker with a pretty face to beguile them into believing a bunch of fake promises. Will Republicans stoop to their level and become mindless lemmings following a charismatic personality? Or, will they -- finally, find their spines and stand up for THE CONSTITUTION AND ITS PRINCIPLES?

Is Perry different from other Establishment Hacks?: http://www.youtube.com/ronpaul#p/a/u/1/UUNIeOB0whI
Secession has been a verboten issue in the United States since the end of the Civil War. Any group who’ve brought it up have been targeted by press and government as ‘militant fringe groups” All of a sudden in 2009, we saw it endorsed by career politicians in several states simultaneously, and the media is giving them good press.
Last year, Rick Perry, Texas Governor since George W. Bush’s departure in 2000, raised secession of Texas from the Federal Union at a Ron Paul type ‘Tea Party” to protest Federal spending and the tax burden on the little guy.
Clearly the Illuminati intend to harness and divert popular discontent to advance their own secret agenda, I.e. The melding of the USA into their world government. Many people think the tea party movement in general exhibits a suspicious amount of organization and media acceptance. (Contrast Fox TV’s coverage of this with “9-11 Truth.”)
Perry later told the Star-Telegram that he “never specifically said that Texas should consider trying to secede.” Technically he’s correct. He got cheers telling the Tea Party rabble that the Republic of Texas legislature left a provision in the 1845 agreement to cede with the US Federal government.
But Perry is no populist. In May 2007, Dallas Morning News reported, “Gov. Rick Perry is flying to Istanbul, Turkey, today to speak at the super-secret Bilderberg Conference, a meeting of about 130 international leaders in business, media and politics.” All the Governor’s press secretary had to say was, “He’s looking forward to learning the secret handshake.” And, “It’s their conference, and I suppose they can run it anyway they want.” Perry’s expenses were officially paid by the PAC group ‘Texans for Rick Perry’.
Although he’s never cared what the voters want, Perry ran for an unprecedented third term for Governor in 2010.
Perry’s gubernatorial resume includes supporting ‘Open Borders’; proponent of the $145 billion+ Trans-Texas (NAFTA) Highway to the dismay and anger of central Texas residents who have never been consulted on whether they want or need it. (Thousands of square miles of land has been seized by the State of Texas under eminent domain for this project in Central Texas from the Mexican border just west of San Antonio, Austin, and and Dallas and North Texas.) Perry helped set it up so the project is being built by the Spanish contractor Cinta, and paid for by new toll highways all over the State.
Perry further alienated Texas parents and Legislators by attempting to override a “No” decision on mandatory vaccination of 11-year-old girls with an vaccine for an STD, venereal & warts (the $350 a pop “slut shot.”) Perry invoked Executive Order in Feb 2007, but families filed class action suit and many financial connections between Perry and big pharma corporation Merck came out. Perry backed down but a new bill was introduced to make Gardasil mandatory “as an admission requirement for all primary and secondary schools.
”THE REAL SECESSIONISTS AND RICK PERRY"S FAKE ALIGNMENT WITH IT"
The real secessionist movement leaders were arrested, one killed in 1997. Old school Texans will remember there was a genuine grass roots secessionist movement during the 70′s through the 90′s. They called themselves the Republic of Texas. During the 80′s one couldn’t miss seeing thousands of ‘SECEDE!’ bumper stickers in Houston and Austin traffic. Few people took the Secessionists seriously, but the Federal and Texas governments did. Secessionist movement leaders were hunted down and arrested or killed in West Texas in 1997.
The story made the New York Times and CNN, referring to them as ‘militant secession group’ and ‘fringe group’. The group, led by Richard McLaren, stated historical fact that the original Republic of Texas legislature had never ratified Texas becoming a territory or State of the United States. The Republic of Texas was chartered as a sovereign nation recognized by the United States government at the time.
All the Republic of Texas members had been calling for was an official state wide public referendum so citizens could decide whether they wanted to remain under Federal government or reclaim Republic status.
One secessionist was killed in the Davis Mountains by Texas State Police helicopter snipers. No other witnesses. How is it that Governor Rick Perry is getting full media support using the same arguments as did a ‘militant fringe group’ ?
Perry’s Trail of Corruption
perry_hat
By Ralph Forbes -
Picture the Marlboro Man riding out of the west, healthy, rugged and free . . . until you recall two of the iconic Marlboro men, Wayne McLaren and David McLean, died of lung cancer. Ironically, McLaren testified in favor of anti-smoking legislation, but the phony Madison Avenue icon lives on. But the deadliest Marlboro Man phony ad is the one that portrays politician Rick Perry as a cowboy. The ads are clearly rustling the Reagan brand and marketing it as his own.
Neighbors in his hometown of Paint Creek and Haskell County clearly think Perry is riding to power on a rustled horse with a false brand. Big city Texans agree. Perry has enjoyed lavish perks and travel, paid for by crony capitalists who have funded Perry’s jetting around the world, stays in luxury hotels and resorts, vacations in exclusive Colorado ski towns, expensive sporting events and concerts, at least nine hunting trips, entertainment—even paying the cable bill at the 4,600-square-foot mansion with a heated pool that the taxpayers are paying for—$8,500 a month. As The Houston Chronicle said, Perry’s “a long way from the cotton farm.”
Perry’s acceptance of such perks feeds a corrupt pay-to-play political culture in Texas. His campaign paid $426,000 last year to settle an opponent’s lawsuit alleging it accepted illegal contributions from a top donor.
According to an article by Kenneth P.Vogel in the Washington daily Politico, insurance company owner Phil Adams has contributed nearly $290,000 to Perry’s gubernatorial campaigns. Terrabon Inc., a company in which Adams invested, got $2.75 million from the Texas Emerging Technology Fund, a state economic development program overseen by Perry.
Perry’s trips to Israel are examples of his “extravagant lifestyle funded by secretive corporate contributions” which resulted in favors in return. The trip had been organized and partly funded by Irwin Katsof, an international energy financier and Israel backer, who also helped fund a 2007 Perry trip to Israel.
Doug Pitcock, a major Perry campaign contributor, who runs a road building firm that does millions of dollars in business with the state, revealed that he had loaned his plane to the governor to fly to Israel and wanted to donate the cost of the flight—$180,000—to Texas One (a privately funded “public/private partnership designed for economic development in Texas”) as an in-kind tax-deductible contribution.
Perry spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said the 2007 trip spurred the formation of the Texas-Israel Chamber of Commerce and “served as a catalyst to the governor’s support of Texas’s divestment from companies that do business with Iran.”
When Perry announced his run for the presidency in South Carolina, he began his speech: “I’m the product of a place called Paint Creek—doesn’t have a zip code.” (Its zip code is 79521.) He invoked images of his rural school, growing cotton and wheat, his mother sewing his clothes when he went off to college, his Boy Scout troop (No. 48) . . . “It’s a great place to grow up. . . .Wonderful people out there.”
Meanwhile, back on the farm, “I never saw him on a tractor in his life,” said one of Perry’s old neighbors, who requested anonymity. “And I never did see him on a horse.”
It’s no crime not to be a farmer—but it does show lack of character to pretend you are one. Wallar Overton, 72, Perry’s old Boy Scout troop leader, the one who awarded him his Eagle Scout badge, said he likely won’t be voting for him.
When Perry’s birthplace was devastated by a flood in 2004, Perry turned his back on Haskell, according to Haskell’s county judge, David C. Davis.
Don Ballard, the superintendent of the county’s school system, concurred with Davis. “It was pretty bad,” he said. “We lost a bunch of homes around the lake. . . .We had a lot of homes damaged,” but Perry didn’t send “any kind of aid.”
Are Rick Perry and Mitt Romney really just "Plastic Men" in empty suits?

Rick Perry Fears Ron Paul

Does Rick Perry look worried to you?
An open letter from Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton
Dear Governor Perry,
After our campaign's first ad highlighting your Big Government record and support for liberal Al Gore, your campaign is attacking Dr. Paul - missing the point of why your past is important.
We don't think the fact that you used to be a Democrat is the big problem here. The real problem is that, too often, you still act like one. Even you yourself, Governor Perry, said of your party switch, "I will still vote the same principles, only with an R after my name."
That's the kind of thinking that has our country teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. We cannot afford to nominate someone who thinks the letter next to their name is more important than what they believe.
Governor Perry, let me be clear: It is not that you supported Al Gore that worries us.
It is that you supported Hillary Clinton's health care plan.
You pushed for a federal bailout and stimulus funds.
You support welfare for illegal immigrants.
You tried to forcibly vaccinate 12-year-old girls against sexually transmitted diseases by executive order.
You raised taxes twice.
And, state debt has more than doubled in your tenure as governor, pushing Texas to the brink of our constitutional debt limit.
It's that you supported ALL of these bad ideas that are inconsistent with how most Republicans understand conservatism, yet you now try to swagger your way into the Tea Party.
Governor Perry, with all due respect, you have used great rhetoric. But you will have to answer to the voters of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and across the country as to why that rhetoric does not match your record.
Truth indeed. By the way, here's the ad again.

If there's one thing establishment politicians hate, it's being exposed as outright FRAUDS.
Well, thanks to our latest TV ad and last night's debate, counterfeit conservative Rick Perry is being FORCED to answer for his Big Government record as Governor of Texas.
If you've seen the photos of Rick Perry after yesterday's debate, it sure looks like he's ready for a fight.
Well, if that's what Rick Perry wants, let's give him one.
Can I count on you for an IMMEDIATE contribution to help keep our "Trust" ad on the air through the weekend?
With the national spotlight now on Governor Perry's record, we can't afford to let up.
Of course, immediately after our ad started running, Perry's campaign went on the attack against Dr. Paul - entirely missing the point of why Rick Perry's past is important.
Dr. Paul has never thought that Rick Perry's time as an Al Gore cheerleading Democrat is the big problem here.
The real problem is that, too often, Rick Perry still acts like one!
It's that after his party switch, Rick Perry said "I will still vote the same principles, only with an R after my name."
It is that Rick Perry supported Hillary Clinton's health care plan.
It's that he pushed for a federal bailout and stimulus funds.
It's that he supported welfare for illegal immigrants.
It's that Rick Perry tried to forcibly vaccinate 12-year-old girls against sexually transmitted diseases by Executive Order.
It's that he raised taxes twice.
It's that Texas' state debt has more than doubled during Rick Perry's tenure as governor - pushing Texas to the brink of our constitutional debt limit.
It's that Rick Perry supported ALL of these bad ideas that are inconsistent with how most Republicans understand conservatism, but now is trying to swagger his way into the Tea Party.
Earle, it's up to you and me to make sure Rick Perry answers for his Big Government record.
So please make your most generous contribution TODAY to help me keep our ad on the air.
I need an immediate influx of $150,000 to make this happen.
Please contribute as generously as you can TODAY.
It's Rick Perry's kind of thinking that has our country teetering on the edge of bankruptcy.
Our Republican Party cannot afford to nominate another counterfeit conservative who thinks the letter next to their name is more important than what they believe.
It's the principles that matter.
If you agree, please act TODAY!
For Liberty,
Jesse Benton
Campaign Chairman
P.S. If Rick Perry wants a fight, let's give him one.

To everyone relevant:
I firmly believe we need separation of medicine and state. There is far more to Perry's act that there seems on the surface. He is in thick with Merck, which among other things, has been using human fetal tissue in the production of its vaccines. But they're not telling pro-life parents that when they allow vaccination with Merck products, they're turning their children into cannibals! I have chosen alternative care for my health because standard care doesn't work for me. What Perry would do to take away my access to the remedies I use, successfully, scares the socks off me! And quite frankly, that's not his only problem. He's soft on immigration, and he planned a prayer event together with cult leaders. He strikes me as being seriously bad news, and I hope that people find out before it is too late.
I really like Michelle Bachman but I wish she would check her 'facts' before makes speeches and statements that will come back and bite her! Sometimes it reminds me of people who forward email hoaxes because they don't check things out! Sorry Michelle, but please...check out what you say before you say it. I really do think you'd make a good president, but you've got to stop putting your foot in your mouth.
Ms. Bachman and all who want to bash Gov. Perry because he "raced for the cure" should see how compassionate he is...the OPT OUT TOOK OUT THE MANDATE...THE MANDATE WORDING WAS THERE SO LOW INCOME OR THOSE WITHOUT INSURANCE WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THE VACCINE IF THEY WANTED...IF THEY WANTED! I live here...the opt out was easy for any caring parent to do! Get over it Ms. Bachman...you are the radical here! Paul...fat chance he beats Perry! Paul has some great ideas...unfortunately...he is a coo-coo's.
http://pajamasmedia.com/tatler/2011/09/16/video-heather-burcham-and-gov-rick-perry/
What Michelle seems to continue to overlook is that PARENTS COULD OPT OUT! Being from TX, i can tell you the opportunity to opt out was clearly understood in English and Spanish. She's working against the cause by trying to defame Perry, rather than focus on more important issues. She has been gradually losing my support but this put me off her for good. She needs to get out of the race.
As for the Bilderberg...another conspiracy that holds no water! Soft on illegals? That dog don't hunt either...what other has been on the border and knows the issues. Gov. Perry tries to be a diplomat and do all he can to protect the citizens of Texas...he knows more so than any what the true issues are...As candidate for POTUS...a true answer of what a candidate will do is simply the Commander in Chief's responsibility to seal our borders of which Gov. Perry is the first and foremost who has the only proposals to do it! As the what we do with the illegals...Gov. Perry has supported legislation of everything but giving amnesty...he is a proponent of enforcing our laws and incarceration and deportation...check the record...As for Texas cession...again...blown out of proportion...Get facts...not contrived conspiracy theories...GO GOVERNOR...GIG EM AND HOOK EM!
Perry has enough issues, it's hard for me to believe that she would take on THIS one. I'd be the last one to defend Perry but this woman is the Republican Joe Biden - a complete embarrassment. Good Grief!
Michelle, You need to remember that the ultimate goal is to defeat bho, not your fellow conservatives. Your characterization of "PerryCare" based on an issue that has been explained, apologized for, and not even in law; is a twisting of the facts and comparing it to ObamaCare is ludicrous.
RE: SUPPORTING VACCINATIONS A MUST - If Schools didn't require vaccinations can you imagine how much whooping coughs, mumps, Rubella and polio would be spread around the nation? To stop sexually transmitted diseases from spreading would be a good thing - even though a child is young. Anyone can stand a simple shot. SHAME ON ANYONE WHO WON'T PERMIT VACCINATIONS FROM PREVENTING DISEASE. They can always opt out.
