    • "When asked why I came in for counseling, I said that I had been struggling with homosexuality for a long time and tried a lot of things, up to and including suicide, to make it go away – exactly how my 16-year-old self would have responded. I said that I was upset: this struggle has lasted for so long that I started to wonder if I was doing it right and decided to seek outside help. All of my sexual experiences, from age 14 onward, had been with men.

      "What I wanted, though, was to get rid of my homosexuality and eventually marry a woman."

      It sounds to me as if Wiertzema was just trying to help him with his request.

    • tax dollars given to these witch doctors to "pray the gay away". Cher said her gaydar went off with Marcus. This guy is a total closeted fake. This story is going to have legs...lots of legs...sassy high kicks..and sequined heel kicks. Nair legs...

    • Micheal Bachmann, like Sarah Palin, is nothing more than a smoke screen, a distraction. While we are busy laughing at the stupid things she says and crazy antics she does, we have taken our eye off the ball. We are not looking past her to discover who the REAL organizations that support her are and what they are doing "behind the senes" that are doing the real damage to our civil libertys.

      Great post!

    • She said it herself, she a fool! And the butt head clinic they operate should reimburse every red cent they received and have their "licence"revoked. First of all psychology is a joke, but these nitwits take it to a whole new level of brain damage. Fundamentalism is the sickness here and the Bachmanns need to be put away and given LOTS and LOTS of drugs to keep them quiet.

    • Great story Tim. This is the only way to make the Bachmann clan show their true colors.
      Prison orange would look good on both of them.

    • Thanks for posting this, Tim. Quite the good read. The Bachmann organization is typical anti-gay nutbaggery run by a closeted self-loathing homosexual. I think the Bachmann's could start being honest by Marcus coming out himself.

    • Snake oil, anyone? How do these assholes get fed aid for this bullshit? We should demand an audit of these assholes and their 'Business.

      Who in their right mind would give these assholes money? Who gave them MY tax dollars for this bullshit?

      bachmann is a WHORE'

    • Thanks for bringing this to us, Tim. As more information comes out about the families of GOP pols and their businesses, the more I wonder if ANY of them do anything legitimate and/or ethical.
