Her own mother rats her out! Michele Bachmann was widely criticized for her diva like entrance and exit from the Black Hawk County's Lincoln Day dinner in northern Iowa. Arriving late, Bachmann explained "I had a family reunion north of Waterloo today." Turns out, according to her mother, that Bachmann's husband and children attended the family reunion but Michele Bachmann apparently opted out. So why would Michele Botoxmann lie about such a insignificant event? A simple "I was incapacitated from one of my overwhelming headaches that I decided to sit out the reunion to get some rest so that I don't lock up at the event" would've sufficed.
