Marcus Bachmann
I just found out this asshole husband of Michelle is a big member of the "pray away the gay" faction of Christian Counseling. God, I can't stand these jerks who make people feel terrible about who they are! Arrrgh!

5. Seriously?
I can't see crazy Michelle ever being a Democrat. She seems to love that Ronnie Reagan.

11. Yeah, I heard it on Randi Rhodes yesterday, and check out
Angry Dragon's response under yours.

She's pretty frightening no matter what side of the aisle she's on.

6. She and Marcus once worked for Carter
and then changed to republican

Just by statements I have read, watching her over the years, and listening to her, I believe he controls her.
He picks out her clothes that she wears, she has stated that Marcus and her son are her main advisors.
Notice he is around her more now that she has declared.
When she was growing up she had a good relationship with her half-sister that is a lesbian.

People can make mistakes when they are talking with passion. I do not worry so much about her mixing
up the Concords or John Wayne. I worry more about her evil disregard for the people of this country.
She is a media whore and she has sucked government funds for years but does not think that government
is a good thing.

12. She also says he picks out all her clothes and according to Michelle,
he has "fabulous" (her word) taste. Combine that with his "pray away the Gay" counseling and one has to say "Ooooohhh???" :evilgrin:

7. Yes, when did it all change? I guess it had to do with their belated
aggressiveness/push back with the media after being scorned by same for so long and the media just turned lily livered and began caving into them. Must go back to the days of the Moral Majority, Farwell and Swaggart and the like.

13. This might help
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michele_Bachmann

Bachmann grew up in a Democratic family, but she says she became a Republican during her senior year at Winona State. She told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that she was reading Gore Vidal's 1973 novel, Burr: "He was kind of mocking the Founding Fathers and I just thought, I just remember reading the book, putting it in my lap, looking out the window and thinking, 'You know what? I don't think I am a Democrat. I must be a Republican.




While still a Democrat, she and her then-fiancé Marcus were inspired to join the pro-life movement by Francis Schaeffer's 1976 Christian documentary film, How Should We Then Live? They frequently prayed outside of clinics and served as sidewalk counselors.<16> Bachmann was a supporter of Jimmy Carter in 1976 and she and her husband worked on his campaign.<29> During Carter's presidency, Bachmann became disappointed with his liberal approach to public policy, support for legalized abortion and economic decisions she held responsible for increased gas prices. In the 1980 presidential election, she voted for Ronald Reagan and worked for his campaign.

9. He controls Michelle.
Watch the dynamics whenever they appear together in a video.
He steers her.
It is like she is some kind of mindless robot that needs constant corrections.
