Michele Bachmann Tells Us Exactly How She Would Influence President Obama: 'Spanking'

Who knew Bachmann was that kinky! From Perry Stein at TPM:

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) had some strong words Monday for President Barack Obama's use of executive orders, specifically in the immigration battle, warning that the GOP should focus on giving the president a "spanking" through his "checkbook."

"He has a perpetual magic wand and nobody’s given him a spanking yet and taken it out of his hand,” Bachmann said in an interview with WorldNetDaily. “That’s what Congress needs to do, give the president a major wake-up call. And the way we spank the president, we do it through the checkbook. We have the power of the purse. The most powerful body in Washington D.C. is the United States House of Representatives, of which I'm honored to be a part.”

She continued, asking "what is wrong with us that we would give the president ten cents to fund Obamacare?"

So... does the President carry his checkbook in his vest pocket or his hip pocket? Either way, Bachmann's suggestion makes her sound pretty kinky to me... that kind of treatment of a president by a congresswoman should probably be discouraged!
