Republican presidential hopeful, Michele Bachmann is an outspoken anti-gay rights advocate. Here are some memorable quotes I googled up:
“Don't misunderstand. I am not here bashing people who are homosexuals, who are lesbians, who are bisexual, who are transgender. We need to have profound compassion for people who are dealing with the very real issue of sexual dysfunction in their life and sexual identity disorders.”

"In 5,000 years of recorded human history... neither in the east or in the west... has any society ever defined marriage as anything other than between men and women. Not one in 5000 years of recorded human history. That's an astounding fact and it isn't until the last 12 years or so that we have seen for the first time in recorded human history marriage defined as anything other than between men and between women." - Michele Bachmann said during the latest installment of the Iowa Family Leader's presidential lecture series.
“Our children will be forced to learn that homosexuality is normal and natural and that perhaps they should try it, and that’ll be very soon in our public schools all across the state, beginning in kindergarten.” — Senator Michele Bachmann, appearing as guest on radio program “Prophetic Views Behind The News”, hosted by Jan Markell
So one would have to conclude that Bachmann hasn’t done the math. “I've raised 28 children,” she often professes on the campaign trail (5 of her own kids and 23 foster children). So out of 28 kids, not one gay one? You think???
