Children: The new front of the radical gay agenda.

Lol....so much win. Get ready for more of this Michelle

"bye bye!"

"They can get married," Bachmann insisted. "They can marry a man if they're a woman. Or they can marry a woman if they're a man."

fark you fark you fark you.

That's saying, "you can get married, just not to the person you love." I hate Bachman so much. She is a dark stain on the state of Minnesota.

Anyone still fighting against gay rights is a segregationist from December of 1963. You're over. Your bigotry has failed and you're over. Move on to the next evil thing you want to do.

Dimensio: The confrontation as described is unfair. As an opponent of legal recognition of same-sex unions, Mrs. Bachmann cannot be expected to possess an intellectual capacity equal to, or greater than that of an eight year-old child.

A little amendment for ya. That kid was on a level superior to Bachmann.

This is why a socially conservative agenda like Bachmann's is completely unsustainable...

Because younger people just don't care...

So, a taint bit of a snail trail on the white sheets?

I bet I can fix his mom.

High five! Right? C'mon!

Romans 2 and Matthew 6 show that enforcing religious law through civic legislation is prideful and blasphemous.

"In April, 2005, a few dozen people showed up at the town hall for the April 9 event, and Bachmann greeted them warmly," a profile by Michelle Goldberg at The Daily Beast states. "But when, during the question and answer session, the topic turned to same-sex marriage, Bachmann ended the meeting 20 minutes early and rushed to the bathroom. Hoping to speak to her, [Pamela] Arnold and another middle-aged woman, a former nun, followed her. As Bachmann washed her hands and Arnold looked on, the ex-nun tried to talk to her about theology. Suddenly, after less than a minute, Bachmann let out a shriek. "Help!" she screamed. "Help! I'm being held against my will!"

"They can get married," Bachmann insisted. "They can marry a man if they're a woman. Or they can marry a woman if they're a man."

That particular "answer" really is the height of complete cock-ishness from the anti-rights crowd. It ensconces every possible dickheaded facet of the entire movement in one complete, smug little package. It conveniently ignores the entire point, it disrespects the questioner, it disrespects the subjects of the question, and it revels in its own ignorance by pretending that its brazen stupidity is some sort of clever genius.

It really is the ultimate "gym in 26 minutes" of political responses.

While I like seeing Bachmann mentally incapacitated, I get the feeling that the kid was sent up there by his mom to deliver the 'gotcha' line. I hate when people use their kids like that.

Last week, another young activist, Jane Schmidt of the Waverly High School Gay-Straight Alliance in Iowa, pressed the candidate on why same sex couples couldn't get married.

"They can get married," Bachmann insisted. "They can marry a man if they're a woman. Or they can marry a woman if they're a man."

Because nothing screams "SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE!" quite like marrying someone you could never love.

I don't believe Michelle Bachmann is a legitimate candidate for any office higher than "local dog catcher", but I don't think this qualifies as good parenting. Your child should not be used as a publicity stunt to further your political or social agenda.

BAM! What a frightfully unpleasant woman. Wonder if her tribe will try for a character assassination on the 8 year old.

Bachmann is a moron of the first rate - everyone here agreed?

OK, now, the kid's mother...needs to be (almost) equally ridiculed. Keep your 8-year-old kid out of politics you twit. You need a messenger, go call western Union.

what_now: What world does this woman live in that she's shocked and surprised that people are gay? She honestly looked like she was afraid she'd catch something from this kid.

Look. There are gay people. They exist and they will continue to do so. You are allowed to dislike the fact that gay people exist, but when you don't ACCEPT the fact that gay people exist, you are take stupid to a new level.

She's probably wondering where a kid came from.

"Oh my god... They've started reproducing by parthenogensis!"

Way to use your kid as a manipulative political tool.

Kind of like when one parent uses a child to "get back at" the other parent.

Diarrhea Anne Frank: BAM! What a frightfully unpleasant woman. Wonder if her tribe will try for a character assassination on the 8 year old.

I heard he eats paste! And he still takes his pants all the way down when he stands at the urinal!

ahchoo: "If you don't got Mojo Nixon

Michelle Bachmann has no Elvis in her.

Zerochance: This is why a socially conservative agenda like Bachmann's is completely unsustainable...

Because younger people just don't care despise bigots, want government uninvolved with uteruses...

/FTFY

So farking what? I see plenty of pro-life assholes bringing their farking kids to abortion protests.

This whole "Everyone has an equal right to marry someone of the opposite sex" argument. Do they think they're being clever?

I mean you could flip it around and say gays don't want the "special right" to marry people of the same sex. They want everyone to have the right to marry someone of the same sex.

A Dark Evil Omen: what_now: What world does this woman live in that she's shocked and surprised that people are gay? She honestly looked like she was afraid she'd catch something from this kid.

"Oh my god... They've started reproducing by parthenogensis!"

Come on. There's no way Bachmann has ever heard of parthenogenesis.

It's a Sunshine Day!: While I like seeing Bachmann mentally incapacitated, I get the feeling that the kid was sent up there by his mom to deliver the 'gotcha' line. I hate when people use their kids like that.

This. Bachmann & her ilk are proof the gene pool doesn't have enough chlorine, but for fark sake don't use your kids like that.

I'm sure the usual suspects will be in here soon to decry the use of a child for trolling, I just want to say: all's fair in love and war, and Republicans like Bachmann have declared war on love.

This sort of thing is only going to get more common, until eventually social conservatives won't be able to appear in public without being openly and aggressively challenged on their evil beliefs. And that will be a glorious day.

hillbillypharmacist: sprawl15: Romans 2 and Matthew 6 show that enforcing religious law through civic legislation is prideful and blasphemous.

That's bullroar.

Sin makes Jesus cry. We have to protect him by reducing the amount of sin- and the ends justify the means.

Jesus seems like a pretty tough guy. He can probably protect himself.

DontMakeMeComeBackThere: OK, now, the kid's mother...needs to be (almost) equally ridiculed. Keep your 8-year-old kid out of politics you twit. You need a messenger, go call western Union.

pretty sure when i was 8 if someone called out my mom as being a bad person, i would have said something too. calling out a mother is always going to get a response.

Zerochance: This is why a socially conservative agenda like Bachmann's is completely unsustainable...

we need to stop calling it conservative and call it what it really is- reactionary. i guess it might seem like splitting hairs, but these people are just looking to keep things they way they are- they are actively looking to return them an earlier and less civil time
