This guy is a sick piece of shit. You dont heal , rub, pray , or any other way, take the gay out of someone.

You guys seem to have a real problem with those who don't think the way you think they should. Has it ever occurred to you that his ideas on this subject are just as valid as yours. Not supporting gay lifestyle is not indicative of an lack of ability to successfully accomplish anything else in your life.

I'm very glad this now has National exposure. We Minnesotans have known about the Bachmanns' overt homophobia for quite a while. I personally hope he keeps flapping his jaws - it will negatively impact her campaign (except for those unpleasant people who feel the same way).

It seems rather hypocritical for an obviously homosexual man such as himself to say such things. We've seen this before. I can't wait until he gets caught!

They are just plain stupid people. Period. If you care about what this people "think", and say, then you are going to their low level of mentality. This stupid people should be ignored!!.

Those that chose to use their religion as an excuse to hate are the barbarians.

Bachmann's husband is "On Homosexuality?"

Ooh, that explains a LOT.

Drill Baby Drill!

Well, I am happy to hear that Michele Bachmann found a soulmate as dumb and narrow minded as she is. I do worry about all the children that the two of these hateful mental midgets are responsible for.

Marcus Bachmann received Medicaid $$$ for teaching anti-gay rhetoric? Clearly, this is a huge waste of our tax dollars if these "doctors" are being paid to distribute hate mongering. Here is a place that can probably be sliced from the budget--no more funding for hate counseling.

The subject of gays have been addressed by the media but no mention on what this "doctor's" views on how women should fit into society (that is other than forced pregnancy to birth even in rape or incest). Why does the media seem to be so lacking on the subject of women's rights and equal treatment under the law? Women seem to be invisible as subjects for politicians to taken under scrutiny. Just because there are two women vying to top spot in the Republican party does not exempt them from answering questions about their beliefs on how women are and should be treated in our society.

Let Michele and Sarah go do the mud-wrestling thing. My gosh, no one said such a stupid thing and then Michele indicates that she and Sarah are just so damn hot that all the men in America want to see woman on woman, ugh!

For some reason when I hear people like this dork gay bash, I always have a feeling that he himself must be gay since it's always the christian conservatives who do the gay bashing who end up being exposed later on.

" Influential Kenyan Muslim Leaders Call for the Death Penalty for Homosexuality

These folks sure do have a lot in common with Marcus and Michelle.

Obama has said multiple times he thinks marriage is between a man and a woman; why can't these dolts learn to understand English instead of worrying about what other people are doing in their sex lives? If they love "the children" so much, they should want universal health care for all kids and their parents, help stop poverty and boost education. I have shoes smarter than these amoebas.

Has anyone ever interviewed any of the 23(?) children fostered by the Bachmanns? I shudder to think of a vulnerable youngster at the mercy of this couple.

My opinion on Bachman's husband:"Stupid needs to be educated out of his stupidity"

"‘Barbarians need to be educated’ out of their ‘sinful nature’"

He's talking about Republicans, right?

Where is the glitter bomber for these dolts? So they take gov't money to 'turn' people from the gay? Yep...glitter bomb these idiots.

He has said they did not mary for love- he got a vision from God that told him to mary her.

Perhaps God wanted him to be "disciplined" so he does not "go down that road" to his "sinful nature".

Add that to his rabid homophobic rant, and you have a classic right-wing closet case.

Oh- and also the fact that she adopted so many children because he does not provide for her emotional needs.

How would you have liked to be a gay child in the foster system and ended up in their loony household?

Marcus is a closeted homosexual of the highest degree......Every gay person that's met him that I know said their gaydar went crazy.....

Disgusting hatred and bigotry from these right-wing nut jobs, thats all you get .They are the barbarians with their antiquated thinking and ill-formed religious dogma

Add Spanish Inquisition tactics to a Sharia Law doctrine, and what do you get? Hell busting out all over. A pair of wolves in sheeps clothing.

Speaking for his wife so she doesn’t have to say what she really feels? Barbarians was a choice phrase to use, how many Wars have been started from being Gay, now ask the same question about Christians and explain to me who is the barbarian.

This is a perfect example of "Introduction to Understanding Christianity" 101.

" If a man smite thee on the cheek, show him the other".

"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.""They are giving full, wide-open doors to children, not only giving encouragement to think it but to encourage action steps.

So let me get this straight. If someone is bashing me in the face and I "THINK" hey, this really hurts, It would be a "SIN" for me to defend myself from it, right?

This kind of thinking not only is degrading on a human level, but is one of the excuses that are used to undermine the importance of what the Constitution stands for. Religious fanatics such as the Bachmann's truely despise the Constitution and would prefer biblical law instead. It is fine if they want to live there lives according to scripture but they have no right to shove it in my face. This is the part jesus freaks like Mr. Bachman does not like, and why they can be very dangerous if elected in high offices. (This is just my opinion.)

In other words, Shut up, do as your told, don't question, and get thoes silly thoughts out of your head!

Has a nice Orwellian ring to it.

Can we heavily Tax churches please! Lets say we will allow you into our government but we are going to tax 100% of your donations. hahhhh??

""barbarians need to be educated" when asked how parents should deal with their homosexual children."

Mr Bachmann needs to be in the classroom, on the front row, taking notes. HE is the barbarian. And, Mr Bachmann, there WILL be a test!

I love how jackhole evangelicals think homosexuality is a choice, or something someone "experiments" with in early adolescence. When I was an teen, I 'experimented' with DRUGS, THAT was a choice. It NEVER crossed my mind to have a sexual encounter with another dude. When Nancy Reagan said "Just say No" I chose not to for drugs, but could easily say no to d*ck.

talk about hypocrits!!! where is the separation of Church and State??? why is the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT granting $$$ to a selfabsorbed, condescending, Neandertal group of "Christians" bent on destroying the very fabric of our country:
C H O I C E
If it is good enough for God to grant free will to all "men", who are these jokers to question HIM?
Like I said......PHUQUING HYPOCRITS
They should be investigated, not nominated

Marcus runs a Christian-based counseling center in Minnesota that takes $161,000.00 of medicare money

this jackass needs to listen to Minnesota's state representatve Steve Simons speach to the congress:"anymore it is being proven that sexuality, sexual orientation is innate, God given..so ask youself, if that's true, to put it in the venacular I would ask, how many more gay people does God have to create before we ask ourselfs whether or not God actually wants them around"

I feel sorry for their biological and foster children. To be raised in such a hateful and intolorent household is sad.

separate church and government! That's also the never ending issue in our country.

Did you ever notice how most of these right wing extremists who rail against the "gay menace", turn out to be gay themselves? Going back to J Edgar Hoover with his predilection for young boys, Ted Haggard with his love of meth and gay prostitutes, Larry Craig, and the list of anti-gay re_Pigs who are actually gay goes on and on. Therefore, Michelle Batshit's husband will dovetail perfectly with the customary re-Pig party hypocrisy. Can it be long before we open the closet and find -gasp- a Santorum? Back to Mr. Batshit, perhaps he should be in one of his own clinics "Praying the Gay away" and wearing a Pink Elephant lapel pin. But he's not gay O no no no not him.

Wait a minute, wasn't her husband arrested for shoe tapping right after Larry Craig? ha ha , So he wants to brainwash people into thinking they are not gay? Most of these people that are homophobic, are just hiding their own homosexual thoughts. Maybe he needs a shrink!

So much for jobs just attack gays.

Keep church out of government

Religion needs to be exterminated!

I'm really quite happy he made this comment. Hopefully it will serve aid in the derailment of Bachmann's US Presidential bid.

As a side note: I'm as I continue to listen to this interview I expect to one day hear that Dr Bachmann has been renting 'boys', hooking up in toilets, or something of that nature.

As infuriating as this is, he's an idiot and he is increasingly in the minority.

In 20 years, he'll be seen just as we see former racists now. A backwards fool spouting bigotry and nonsense.

I can't wait to watch Bachmann NOT become the next president of the US.

These right wing nut, holier than thou, loony-toon morons need to be educated. I'm so sick of one group of religious zealots dictate to all people how to live. Imposing their morality is immoral.

What this moron doesnt realize is that the majority of gays are more educated and more intelligent than your average non gay and earn more money. Only idiots rely on a antiquated fictional book and primitive rituals to tell them what to do.

Always a good one kb

Can this circus act get any better?
What True Freaks! ( WTF , for the people who believe these nuts ) which if they get their way count yourself getting paid peaNUTS from the Elephant in the house!

I actually feel sorry for their biological 5 and 23 foster children being indoctrenated by these two hate spewing alledged christans.Feel sorrier for us if she wins.

If Barbarians need to be educated out of their sinful nature, then Mr. Bachmann needs to definitely be educated. He need to go to accounting school to figure out how to count all that money his clinic took from government funds.

I wonder how often her lesbian sister visits them?

Grrrr....Another hypocrite!
