“In the statehouse, Bachmann made opposition to gay marriage her signature issue. Both she and her husband, by all accounts her most trusted political adviser, believe that homosexuality can be cured. Speaking to a Christian radio station about gay teenagers last year, Marcus, who treats gay people in his counseling practice, said, ‘Barbarians need to be educated. They need to be disciplined, and just because someone feels this or thinks this, doesn’t mean that we’re supposed to go down that road.’”

you know, i never thought of it that way. as a college-educated woman, i never even dreamed i was a barbarian—i guess that’s why i get so much pleasure out of those giant turkey legs at the Renaissance Fair. also, i guess i just need a good hard spanking for all that evil lesbianism!

it would also be helpful if people who were expressing their views didn’t use weird, bullshit phrases that don’t mean anything when they’re talking. just say what you mean and be done with it.
