During a Wednesday appearance on the conservative radio show “Faith & Liberty,” Rep. Michele Bachmann accused the “gay community” of pushing “deviancy,” “tyranny” and child rape.
The Minnesota Republican warned that the gay community will “abolish age of consent laws, which means we will do away with statutory rape laws so that adults will be able to freely prey on little children sexually. That’s the deviance that we’re seeing embraced in our culture today.”
She also predicted that gay rights advocates will legalize polygamy and enact “hate speech laws across the United States” in order to bring about “the rise of tyranny.”
Quote:
After all that, Bachmann insisted that she was communicating a message of love for gay people and that conservatives must show the nation that God “is so much more powerful than the evil we see unleashed upon the world today.”
“Our message is to spread goodness and joy and wholeness and healing, and we do that through a loving God with a message that frees people, it doesn’t enslave people, we shouldn’t fear giving out this very good word,” Bachmann said. “It takes these concepts for the purpose of bringing liberty, joy, healing, wholeness and a fresh way of thinking for people’s lives.”

I think all of us are secretly hoping she runs again for President in 2016. Especially since she isn't in congress anymore so she has nothing to lose and might say some truly insane stuff.

I'm not sure which is worse - that she is that ignorant and yet still gets so much exposure and publicity to push her views OR that she is smart enough to realize how regnant her views are and still chooses to profit from them.
Because it them gays can make hate speech illegal then she can no longer be a paid speaker and her kids will starve. Won't someone please think of the kids!?!
