However that doesn't diminish in any way the fact that Michele Bachman is batshit crazy, as her own words clearly demonstrate.

Perhaps, but she does clearly mention "medical experiments" and that a child "can't say no" when they are a ward of the state.
IMO, using children for medical experiments is precisely what she was alluding to. A common trick employed by politicians and the media.
