STFU Michele Bachmann

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) reiterated that she would reinstate the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy if she were elected president on a conference call with Ralph Reed’s Faith and Freedom Coalition, reports the Minnesota Independent.

Bachmann took calls from supporters, including one who said that allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly would “destroy the armed forces,” before being cut off.

“I think of all the candidates that are running in the race, I have been very vocal about this,” said Bachmann according to the Independent. “I would reinstate the don’t ask, don’t tell policy. It worked before and what it says is the issue of sexuality is one that doesn’t come up and people aren’t allowed to be open about it because the United States military, it’s not a social experiment.”

Folks, please read the rest of this article. Later on it discusses how she is “extremely proud” of the amendment, she wrote and sponsors, that will change the Minnesota state Constitution to say that marriage rights can only be given to a heterosexual couple. This homophobic bigot needs to pull a Sylvia Plath and end herself, honestly, the last thing this country needs is more hate.
