Bachmann Calls on the DOJ and the FBI to Investigate Whether 341 Felons Tipped Senate Election

You'd think a politician who wrote a letter to President Bush asking for a pardon for a man convicted of money laundering, gun & drug traffiking & mixed up with convicted felon Tom Petter's Ponzi scheme... not to mention accepting $10K from and having her picture taken with a guy who ran a sham charity... would shy away from talking about felons, but not Michele Bachmann.

Bachmann put on her tin foil hat and spun a few conspiracy theories on the African-American Conservative radio show.

He [Barack Obama] was the sponsor of a radical bill that would give one percent of the entire U.S. budget to the U.N. He wanted to give that money to the U.N. that would eventually lead to a tax that the United States would be paying over to this world government."

Bachmann also claims stimulus spending is an "abject failure".

At the end of this clip, Bachmann calls on the DOJ and the FBI to investigate the claim that 341 felons tipped the election in favor of Al Franken... listen :



Bachmann repeated the claim - "We Had 341 felons who voted for Al Franken" on Glen Beck's radio show.

Did Bachmann’s Finance Director, Zandra Wolcott Leave Because...

... of this guy?

Here's Part One of the video on You Tube:



Part Two HERE and Part Three HERE..

Ohio AG Richard Cordray said Bobby Thompson is on the lam:

“As more information emerges about this group and Bobby Thompson, the individual connected with it, the more troubled I am. No one can locate Thompson now—he has disappeared. This is extremely questionable behavior on behalf of a man who had access to millions of dollars raised in the name of Navy veterans. While very little concrete evidence is available how those funds were spent helping vets or their families, a great deal of information is available about political contributions made by Thompson personally to candidates or through the political action committee he created and to which he was the sole contributor, NAVPAC.

“Spread the word. Tell your friends and family. We want all Ohioans to know not to contribute to the U.S. Navy Veterans Association.”

Will Bachmann Give up the $10K She Got From Snarky Navy Vets Charity?

If you're new to the controversy, read Karl Bremer's summary of Bachmann's connections to Bobby Thompson.

Here's another article, this time from the New Mexico Independent that relates a similar tale about the snarky charity that allegedly kept up to 90 percent of the money raised from donors:

RS documents list Howard Bonifacio as head of the New Mexico chapter, and his address as 388 Boutz Road in Las Cruces. But that address is an empty field, the Attorney General’s Office found. AG officials could find no evidence in tax records or phone books that Bonifacio, or another New Mexico chapter official, Don Archer of 2698 Espina St., Las Cruces, really exist.

“We found nothing but some dirt and some mesquite,” Korsmo said. “And Howard Bonifacio is not in the White Pages of New Mexico; nor is he in the White Pages anywhere in the U.S. Until Mr. Bonifacio comes to talk to us, I’m going to assume he doesn’t exist.”

The U.S. Navy Veterans Association, formed in Tampa, Florida in 2002, is registered in New Mexico and 40 other states, and has annual revenues of $22 million, according to a St. Petersburg Times.

You'd think right-wingers who pretend to "support the troops" would be asking Bachmann and others to give the dirty $$$ she got from Bobby Thompson to the real troops.

She didn't mention Bobby Thompson or Navy Vets on this video of her appearance on "Troopathon".
