Hero High School Student Fights Michele Bachmann Over Gay Marriage

[William769]

Things went down last night at the Pizza Ranch in Waverly, Iowa, at the town hall meeting Michele Bachmann held. One high school student dared to stand up for herself and challenge Bachmann's backward stance on gay marriage.

We have to give it up for this girl, who really stuck to her guns in a tough room of people who think that marriage should be between one man and one woman. Seriously, Bachmann's stance makes no sense. She claims that gay people have the same rights as everyone else because they're allowed to get married to a member of the opposite sex just like all other Americans. I can do nothing but shake my head at this. Naturally Bachmann refuses to admit that she has been completely outwitted by a kid who isn't even old enough to vote yet, but whatever. We don't keep Michelle around for her sense-making. Crazy-making? Yes.

Seriously, let's give it up for this girl who stood up for herself and all gay people at some pizza place in Iowa. It's people like her that are going to make gay marriage a reality and people like Michelle Bachmann look even stupider when Adams and Steves the nation over are getting hitched.

What I find ironic is this discussion is taking place where marriage equality is the law of the land.

1. Has Backman ever known a gay person who married a person

of the opposite sex to coverup, please society, etc.? It ain't pretty. I have seen this happen from the 1950s to the 1990s. Sorry, Michelle. Not going to work, and as my Grandma said, why make everybody miserable?
