"That's why people need to continue to go to the town halls, continue to melt the phone lines of their liberal members of Congress," said Bachmann, "and let them know, under no certain circumstances will I give the government control over my body and my health care decisions."

5. That's right!
Everyone knows that only bean-counting low-level staffers in cubicles at UHC and BCBS can make these decisions!
