Just last summer, Dr. Bachmann explained his position on homosexuality while offering theoretical advice to parents concerned that one of their children was gay.



BACHMANN: We have to understand: barbarians need to be educated. They need to be disciplined. Just because someone feels it or thinks it doesn’t mean that we are supposed to go down that road. That’s what is called the sinful nature. We have a responsibility as parents and as authority figures not to encourage such thoughts and feelings from moving into the action steps…

And let’s face it: what is our culture, what is our public education system doing today? They are giving full, wide-open doors to children, not only giving encouragement to think it but to encourage action steps. That’s why when we understand what truly is the percentage of homosexuals in this country, it is small. But by these open doors, I can see and we are experiencing, that it is starting to increase.

He's a little obsessed with "full, wide open doors"

Family of Origin issues? Is that adoption? Immigration? Adam & Eve?

6. All the guys who run those gay-to-straight
conversion places are self-loathing closet cases. I bet that they have a wonderfully frigid marriage.

The Bachmanns are Lutherans of the Wisconsin Synod Persuasion.

That branch of Lutheranism is the most conservative, most backward, and most legalistic branch of that church. Many Wisconsin Synod churches walk very close to the edge of the fundamentalist cliff. The Wisconsin Synod still has in its doctrine the quaint notion that "The Church of Rome" is the Antichrist. Officially in their doctrine.

So, it's not at all surprising that this "Christian" counselor is a Neanderthaler when it comes to GLBT issues. I'd be surprised at anything else. Sadly, we will not hear of this in the media during the campaign.

14. I have a child who is gay
and she is not a barbarian! In fact, I think this asshole is a barbarian for even suggesting such a thing. He's not captured on film much, but here's a clip of Marcus mincing down the hallway before one of Michele's debates - I'm not sure if this was the one where he shopped for and picked out her dress. After seeing the clip, you might think that he's hiding a big secret from his wife...

18. "Need to be Educated" wow, projection really runs rampant among conservatives
given the string of foopas involving basic US history from both Bachmann and Palin.

But I assume that "education" in this case does not mean what this idiot wants it to mean...

27. I don't think Mr. Bachmann could sound more gay if he tried
Certainly, he would be another in a long line of in the closet gay Rethugs who denounce gays.
