Hmmm. He starts by saying that her comments about the swine flu referred to a Republican president when he meant to say that she referred to Democratic president, and then he spends a lot of time mocking her for a slip of the tongue when she says Hoot-Smally instead of Smoot-Hawley. A bit of kettle-black there.

Then he derides her for saying the authors of a bill (that she claims contributed to the Great Depression) were Democrats when they were actually Republicans. But he doesn't address the meat of the issue, which is a claim regarding the content of the bill and its effect.

In general I like TYT and I most certainly can't stand Bachmann, but this was not an effective critique.
