Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, a strong ally of tea parties nationwide, is using the opportunity of Congress being called back into session to hold a call of her own.

Tonight, Bachmann will be hosting a tele-Townhall. She promoted the call on her campaign website, under the subheadline "Bachmann Calls for Nancy Pelosi To Enter 12 Step Program For Her Addiction To Job-Killing Spending" :

With Nancy Pelosi’s declaration that Congress will be reconvening to authorize billions of dollars of spending the government doesn’t have, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann announced she will be holding a National Tea Party Tele-Townhall to listen to the response of the American people...
