Bachmann Demands Democrats Give Back $105 Billion 'Tucked Away' Inside Health Care Law (http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/hannity/transcript/bachmann-demands-democrats-give-back-105-billion-inside-health-care-law)
...most members of Congress are still unaware of their existence. It is a staggering $105 billion in appropriations that were inserted into the bill at the last minute behind closed doors.
Now in this case, the traditional appropriations process was bypassed meaning that more than 100 billion taxpayer dollars has already been sent to bureaucrats to fund this controversial bill.
Now by engaging in this deceitful process, Democrats like Nancy Pelosi ensured that regardless of the outcome of last November's elections, that the hands of Congress would be tied and Obamacare would be funded, no matter what.

In an interview with SeanHannity, the following exchange occurred:
HANNITY: Now, once you found out that Kathleen Sebelius has what, a $16 billion slush fund.
BACHMANN: Oh, this is incredible, section 402 of the bill. She has a $16 billion slush fund, that means she can do whatever she wants at this money. She can reach in, tap it, spend it anyway she wants.
HANNITY: Sixteen billion dollars.
BACHMANN: It gets worse than that, Sean, in section 1311[a], she (HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius) has the right to an unlimited tap on the Treasury Department. So, if let's say, California, that's in a financial mess, they can call her up and say, "Guess what? We need more money to put in these private health exchanges, maybe 30 billion." She can say "sure thing," without coming back to Congress she can appropriate the money.
We're talking about $105 BILLION here. Snuck in. Is there no limit to how this admin can spend, spend, spend, against OUR will???
We have to stop this admin which takes our money for things we disapprove of, without our consent!
