Bachmann challenged by 8-year-old
The GOP candidate, an outspoken opponent of same-sex marriage, meets her match.

I commented a few months ago about what is passed off as news on Yahoo. Click the link and read the story and watch this video. Long story - short is the mother sends this 8 year old up to Ms Bachman to say "My mommy's gay, but she doesn't need fixing". Ms Bachmann didn't reply and these reporters want to act like the kid got the best of her. Another interesting point is the person recording the video. This thing was so staged its scary. Props to Ms Bachmann for letting it go.

Now I can just imagine this kid sitting at the breakfast table eating his Cheerios and reading the paper and sees that Ms Bachmann is coming to his hometown. He says to his mother "Mommy, I'm tired of this loud mouth ***** Bachmann putting you down, I'd go down there and give her a piece of my mind if I could only drive!"

The comment describing the video on you tube read:
"Video of Michele Bachmann trying to get her photo op in with my 8 year old son. It's hard to hear but he leans in and tells her that his mom is gay and she doesn't need fixing. GO ELIJAH! Love that look of shock she gets.
We were there for an Occupy Myrtle Beach event to mic check Michele Bachmann on another issue. The lgbt issue came up separately. #Occupymb"

This lady takes her kid up there. Partner is taking the video and she says Ms Bachmann is trying to get photo op with her son. How stupid is this lady????
 
I dislike Michele Bachmann and her positions. I also support LGBT folks. Their lifestyle is not for me, but its none of my business.

With that said, as a father (and a liberal) I have to say this was an awful thing for that woman to do to her child.
 
They are cowards using a child to do their dirtywork. Just another youtube got-ya moment to make someone look bad. Using a child to make a point is what these people think up. They want to force their lifestyle on everyone including children to make it seem normal. I consider it child abuse but that's just my opinion like theirs. The gay couples I have to deal with professionally are bold, outlandish and crude boasting their rights and sex. If I did the same, I would be called a homophobic racist white clan man....give me a break. They are not normal, Mike.
 
...I have to say this was an awful thing for that woman to do to her child.

Although Pack there is very little you and I agree upon politically, but on this one we are.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

It is wrong for anyone to use children for political ends they cannot understand. MM
 
What if I brought my 12 yo nephew to an Obama public event and he asked why does the EPA stop his daddy from working (oil rig worker). Not a breath of coverage I'm sure. The difference is, I wouldn't have to coach him and the media doesn't care about workers, just inflamed personal Jerry Springer debate. Disgusting
