"My husband and I did not get the money. The money that went to the clinic was actually training money for employees. The clinic did not get the money, and my husband and I did not get the money either. That's mental health training money that went to employees. It actually took away from the clinic because these were training hours where employees were not able to bring more income in. This is onetime money that came in from the federal government, and it certainly didn't help our clinic. It was something that was additional training to help employees. It's not my husband and my farm, and my husband and I have never gotten a penny of money from the farm."

The Minnesota Republican and her family have benefited personally from government aid, an examination of her record and finances shows.



A counseling clinic run by her husband has received nearly $30,000 from the state of Minnesota in the last five years, money that in part came from the federal government.




A family farm in Wisconsin, in which the congresswoman is a partner, received nearly $260,000 in federal farm subsidies.

Bachmann's husband, Marcus, applied for public funds for his counseling clinic, Bachmann & Associates.



Since 2006, he has received nearly $30,000, according to Minnesota state records.




The bulk of the money — $24,041 — came in the form of grants from the state Department of Human Services to train staff how to deal with clients suffering from chemical dependency and mental illness. That program was financed in part by the federal government.





Michele Bachmann lists the Lake Elmo, Minn.-based clinic — which aims to provide "quality Christian counseling in a sensitive, loving environment," according to its website — as one of her assets on her financial disclosure forms.




Another of Bachmann's assets — a family farm owned by her late father-in-law, Paul Bachmann — received nearly $260,000 in federal money between 1995 and 2008, largely from corn and dairy subsidies, according to USDA data compiled by the Environmental Working Group, a nonprofit research organization that scrutinizes such subsidies. Paul Bachmann died in May 2009, but the congresswoman retains a partnership in the farm.



Bachmann said in December that the subsidies went to her in-laws and she never received "one penny" from the farm, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. However, in financial disclosure forms, she reported receiving between $32,503 and $105,000 in income from the farm, at minimum, between 2006 and 2009.

(Excerpt from article) She also said she had been a Christian since she was 16 and that God often steered her political course.

"When I pray, I pray believing that God will speak to me and give me an answer to that prayer," she said. "That's what a calling is. If I pray, a calling means that I feel like I have a sense from God." (End)

Michelle, grab the money!

 
More Bach-to-Mom lies....






Rep. Michele Bachmann officially kicked off her presidential campaign today near her childhood home in Iowa, where she touted her "Iowa values" as a constitutional conservative with a Christian background.





"I know what it means to be from Iowa--I know what we value here and I know what's important," Bachmann said from her home town of Waterloo.





The Republican, who moved to Minnesota in sixth grade, referenced her elementary schools, her childhood home, and her grandfather's grave, which were all a short distance away from her speech.

However, the Bach-to-Mom has lied about where she was born before:






Watch the lying bitch in the video at the link:






In addition to lying about her family history in her speech in Iowa, Bachmann, who actually was born in Iowa, but moved to Minnesota as a child, also made it clear that she herself was an Iowan, saying, "I was born in Waterloo, Iowa, and grew up in Waterloo. I grew up in Cedar Falls."




But during her 2008 campaign for reelection in Minnesota, when it was more advantageous for her to be a Minnesotan, her campaign website emphasized her Minnesota roots with a section on its "About" page titled "Rooted in Minnesota," which began, "Michele grew up in Anoka."




If Bachmann's presidential aspirations don't work out and she has settle for running for reelection to Congress, I wonder how her constituents in Minnesota will feel about her denouncing her Minnesota roots in favor of being an Iowan.
