Newshounds is reporting (I so appreciate them watching Faux News so I don’t have to some days) that apparently Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) doesn’t realize that when you are on television and make a statement that it is actually recorded to tape (well perhaps digitally, but you know what I mean).

After about two minutes into his portion of the interview, Colmes read to Bachmann her pre-election comments in which she said, “I’m very concerned (Barack Obama) may have anti-American views” and had called for the media to do a “penetrating expose” into the “views of the people in Congress and find out if they’re pro-America or anti-America.”

When confronted with this what does Michelle Bachmann say? That she never said it, that it was an “urban legend.” Apparently she believes she can just pretend it never happened and that people won’t be able to prove that she did. Unfortunately for her… this isn’t the “good old days” before television shows were recorded.
