Rep. Michele Bachmann had a point to make Sunday morning, and no question was going to stop her.

Appearing on NBC's "Meet the Press," Bachmann ignored host David Gregory's questions about a government shutdown and House Speaker John Boehner to attack the Obama administration with her claim that it hid $105 billion in "advance appropriations" in last year's health-care bill.

The Minnesota Republican even flashed a sign during the interview showing the dollar figure, which she had used in a Florida speech Friday.

"I think this deception that the president and [former House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi and [Senate Majority Leader Harry] Reid put forward with appropriating over $105 billion needs to be given back to the people," Bachmann said, though it's debatable just how secret the money really was.

Bachmann, who is weighing a 2012 presidential run, also did not back off from previous statements that the president holds "anti-American views" and the administration is a "gangster government."

"I do believe that actions that have been taken by this White House — I don't take back my statements on gangster government," she said. "I think that there have been actions taken by the government that are corrupt."

And her "anti-American" comment back in 2008?

"I said I have very serious concerns about the president's views, and I think the president's actions in the last two years speak for themselves," she said.

When Bachmann was asked whether Libyian leader Moammar Gadhafi should be removed from power, she launched into a critique of Obama before hinting at her views on the unrest.

"The president's response at minimum was lacking," Bachmann said. "We need to send a very strong signal. I'm concerned about the signals president sent."

"My question," Gregory interrupted, "is it in America's vital interest to remove Moammar Gaghafi from power?"

"That question I think is one, as Defense Secretary gates has said, we need to be very careful about putting an army on the ground in the Middle East," Bachmann said. "We are extended now in Afghanistan and Iraq, and I think for us to consider further penetration at this time, we need to listen to General Petraeus and what he has to say."
