you should hear what are others been has to say and progress uncovered a seminar conducted by dr marcus bachmann maybe back or even last summer in which he compared gays to barbarians who need to be educated and disappoint and he didn't stop there we have a responsibility as parents and the poor working. naturally courage but. thought and feeling moved into the action step yeah three do. looks like michele bachmann really is the better path in that marriage he's a very strange guy and that's very very ugly. you may remember a few weeks ago i weighed in on the debt ceiling debate by talking about a little known power that secretary of the treasury tim geithner has to prevent our nation from defaulting on a on our debt i referred to it as president obama's secret weapon to make republicans agree to a debt limit increase take a look. racially secretary tim geithner has the sole authority to determine how our debt obligations are met by deciding which bills to pay and when to pay them so if republicans really want to play hardball the president can direct tim geithner to play hardball right

questions about her husband's medical practice a few weeks ago you may recall it was exposed that marcus bachmann clinic uses what's called repairer to their a-p. uses on some patients it's a technique where the therapist tells patients they can quote pray over way they gay any of those feelings they have to say or where they're gone that most medical organizations call the therapy hurtful and ineffective now since news about the pray the gay away therapy broke michele bachmann had dodged numerous questions on the issue on thursday she was asked again about repaired of therapy at the national press club right here in washington. but i am running for the presidency of the united states my husband is not running for the presidency neither are my children neither is our business neither is our foster children and i am more than happy to stand for questions on running for presidency of the united states ok that's true or not so michelle wants her husband children and foster children off limits during the campaign i think that's wise of the congresswoman but here's the problem michele bachman
