the OP is a lie.
The OP uses the linked site's characterization of Bachmann's 2004 statement at the National Education Leadership Conference, in which "gays are a part of satan" is not "in her own words" but rather an interpretation of her words.

A more exact reading of her words would be: "calling homosexuality 'gay' is Satan's ploy."

What do you think "This [homosexuality being called gay] is not funny. It's a very sad life. It's part of Satan, I think, to say this is gay. It's anything but gay" means?

You can Google "Bachmann Satan" to get many results on her statement.

Michele Bachmann in Her Own Words: 'Gays Are Part of Satan'
Read it in context and it is amazing what she actually said.

But I find it interesting that the haters are now going all the way back to 2004 to try to find dirt on her. In time someone will likely dig up her high school transcripts.

OK, back to the topic at hand. From a strategic standpoint, she is not gaining anything by doing this because she would already have the religious right's vote. Is she trying to prove she is more homophobic than Rick Perry to get the votes in the primary? Interesting strategy...

This is what happens to women that marry big queens. It's too bad that she can't decipher two pedophiles vs. two gay men. To think this idiot wants to run this country is laughable at best. Seriously, if this is the best the GOP can come up with, Obama's landslide victory in 2008 will look like a nailbiter.

I'm sure god knows where he can shove his moral law.

Gays are pushing their agenda.

I don't care for Bachmann I think she's a dud politically.

You have to 100% agree with EVERYTHING that's gay or else you're a homophobe, a bigot, a Christian, a Republican, right-winger, etc. The agenda causes the gay mafia to twist and convolute EVERYTHING that any politician says which can be spun for their gain.

It really is exhausting.

They are twisting what the woman says ON PURPOSE in order to paint her as a "homophobe".

They are riding Bachmann and her husband HARD on ANYTHING they can to sway public opinion.

It's really sad and goes to the CORE of their narcissistic dysfunction.

Some of you people need to really SNAP OUT OF IT! People always see what they want if they think it's going to serve their purpose WHICH IS TO PAINT THIS WOMAN AS A HOMOPHOBIC BIGOT. Everyone doesn't HAVE to love homosexuals, they're never going to love homosexuals. As long a they're not rounding you up and throwing you all in a crematorium disguised as a mental hospital (which will NEVER happen) Get over it.

Nobody has to paint Michele Bachman as a homophobic bigot. She does a fine job of doing it herself.

Um...there isn't much to twist. She is a homophobe, and she's proudly outspoken about it. And the right-wing people she appeals to are proud homophobes as well - just look at some of their responses in this thread. It's not like they're hiding it.
