Bachmann Rants About the Census With Sean Hannity

Think Progress posted this audio clip and fact-checked Bachmann's lies: The complete Hannity interview - part one and part two. audiovideo H: you said I'm only going to give certain constitutional information as it relates to the census. B: The anti-ACORN petition at her website. My family and I are not comfortable telling the administration every intricate detail of our lives. The federal government says unless you answer every question, you will be subject to a fine. lists intrusive questions (age, weight, etc.) the one question they don't ask they don't ask whether you're an American citizen, We have no real idea how many illegal aliens are in this country. they don't bother to ask for that. People need to read this census for themselves they can go to my website to read it. the White House politicized the census because this data is the motherload of all personal information and who did BO want to put in charge of this? they want their national partner to be ACORN. they have been indicted, just this year alone in over 12 states. that's criminal! they should not be partners. And that's why I'm asking listeners to sign my ACORN petition H: apparently democrats have been instructed not to talk to republicans about important items like nationalized health care B: doesn't prevent me from going to them with thousands of names on a petition saying we don't trust ACORN maybe that will persuade them. H: bottom line is that you are not gonna fill out that form and you're willing to withstand whatever fine you get. B: I am, because I'm not telling people that they should or should not fill out the census. But for my family, we do not have a comfort level that we trust that information with organizations like ACORN.
