Michele Bachmann brags about anti-gay record in new ad

[RyanPsych]

Before her campaign started sinking in the polls, Michele Bachmann had habitually downplayed her opposition to all things gay as irrelevant. But in a new ad, brought to you by new campaign leadership, she wears it as a badge of honor.

"I'm running to be president of the United States," she reminds voters at the start, which is coincidentally a line she had once regularly employed to dodge questions about her belief in so-called reparative therapy to "cure" homosexuality and her opposition to same-sex marriage.

"Conservatives are being told once again that we should settle for anyone but Barack Obama," she argues. "Well, friends, this is the one year where we can't settle. I have fought for life from the statehouse to the United States Congress. I've led the charge as a champion for traditional marriage. And as president, I want you to know I'll fight for life and for marriage."

The ad is posted on YouTube under the headline "Don't Settle on Life and Marriage." It's a stark change from her "meet the candidate" interview on Meet the Press in August.

1. Yeah Michele, that's all it boils down to, isn't it, all the problems of this

country are because of the gay. Michele, YOU are a fucken bigoted idiot, always will be, always were.

2. Perhaps she is using her marriage as an example

of a traditional marriage
where women marry gay men
just a thought
