"John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa," Mrs Bachmann told Carl Cameron of Fox news in an interview. "That's he kind of spirit that I have, too."

The actor was actually born in Winterset, Iowa, which is about 150 miles southwest of Waterloo. It was John Wayne Gacy, known as the killer clown who raped and murdered 33 teenage boys in the 1970s, who lived in Waterloo."
