Bachmann says she isn’t running to judge gays
Edited on Mon Aug-15-11 11:10 AM by Zorra
One day after winning the Iowa straw poll, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann hedged on NBC's "Meet the Press" when host David Gregory asked about her past criticism of homosexuality.

Gregory played a 2004 clip of Bachmann addressing the National Education Conference when she stated that being gay is "a very sad life."

"It's part of Satan, I think, to say that this is 'gay.' It's anything but 'gay.'" She also stated that the gay lifestyle is "bondage" that leads to "personal enslavement of individuals" and is "dangerous." But she also encouraged compassion for those dealing with what she identifies as a "sexual dysfunction."
snip---
Gregory pressed Bachmann, suggesting that she has, in fact, judged gays. But the congresswoman defended herself, saying of gays "I don't judge them," and adding that she accords "honor and dignity" to every person.

This is what every dogmatic christianist GLBT hater who does not want to admit that they are a hateful homophobic bigot says: "I don't judge gays, it's the sin I hate, not the person."

Bachmann is a corrupt, hypocritical phony. Lies and deceit are her native language.

1. She's just running to eliminate them from society.
Out of site, out of mind.

The gays will be out of site, Bachmann is out of her mind.
