Bachmann: Obama trip was 'shameful'
04/11/09 11:18 AM ET
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) blasted President Obama on Thursday, arguing that Obama's conduct on his trip to Europe and the Middle East was "shameful."
In an interview with KSFO-AM, Bachmann said Obama had "apologiz[ed] for American activity" to foreign audiences. "I thought it was a very sad reflection and perhaps a true reflection on what our President feels about these issues," Bachmann added.
The Minnesota conservative also accused the president of lying about whether he had bowed to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. Bachmann said it was "highly symbolic" that Obama bowed, adding that he has been "denying it and then lying about it."
Bachmann also lashed out at the President for proposing nuclear disarmament and possibly scaling back on missile defense. Obama is "putting the safety of the American citizens at risk," the congresswoman said.
