Bachmann Threatens to Leave Minnesota Over Marriage Equality.

[elleng]

Congresswoman Michele Bachmann threatened to leave Minnesota today if the state goes ahead with its plans to legalize gay marriage.

In an interview with a local television station, the conservative firebrand said she believes God will destroy Minneapolis once the legislation is enacted, and wants to be far away when the reckoning happens.

"The Bible is very clear on this issue," she told KSTP-TV this morning, "Homosexuality is a sin, and God will punish communities that support it.

"Sodom and Gomorrah thought they could defy the will of God - and we all know what happened to them. If the governor signs this legislation into law the Minneapolis-St. Paul region will be next.

[SummerSnow]

2. Well Michelle, God has punished Minnesota since you been there.

[busterbrown]

3. What device do you think God will use?

Plague? Sinkhole? Locust Swarms?

[southernyankeebelle]

7. Well I think the use of Congresswoman Double eyes Bachman was enough of a curse

on the state.

[Chan790]

12. Vogon poetry. n/t

[jberryhill]

4. Ah, Sodom and Gomorrah, the other Twin Cities

What a loon.

[Tx4obama]

6. The Currant is SATIRE, like The Borowitz Report and The Onion.

I fell for it until I noticed the OP link LOL

[jberryhill]

9. So? Bachmann is probably satire as well

[elleng]

11. She certainly IS!!!

Got a Tax Degree???

[RC]

13. WE don't want her down here in Missouri either.

We already have enough crazies and loons.

[jberryhill]

14. Missouri already had its punishment from God

Who can forget the horrific collapse of the St. Louis Space Needle. It bent completely over and the rotating restaurant burrowed right into the ground.

[Chipper Chat]

5. Quick! Call up the Indiana National Guard

and station them on the entire western border with Illinois! We don't want her!

[IADEMO2004]

8. Close Iowa borders Now!!

[rurallib]

17. don't have to - we've had the gays for a while already

I think she may have to go to Wyoming.

[IADEMO2004]

27. Only as long as the Iowa Senate is blue.

We can't pat ourselves on the back and pretend it's over.

[rurallib]

28. too true

but with the process for amending our constitution it won't be easy for repubs to have their way either.

[Mr.Bill]

15. She should move to Alaska.

I have reason to believe she could be elected Governor there.

[meow2u3]

16. Bachmann's afraid Marcus might leave her for another man

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

18. I wish people would stop citing The Daily Currant as news - it's satire,

and usually not very good satire.

In this case, I'm just disappointed that the article isn't true because I'd just love it if she were to haul her scrawny ass the hell out of my state.

[jberryhill]

20. It's more accurate than FOX

[arcane1]

19. On Edit:

Crap

[davidpdx]

21. So if we pass it in every state will she promise to leave the country?

I'll be the first one to chip in for her airplane ticket.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

22. She knows that her reelection is in jeopardy. That's the real reason why she's threatening

to move! She ain't foolin' no one!!

[jmowreader]

23. God already tried to destroy Minnesota

Why do you think Michele Bachmann lives there?

[sakabatou]

24. If this wasn't satire...

[Arkana]

25. I'm not from Minnesota, but if I was, here's the letter I'd write to her:

Dear Representative Bachmann,

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, because I'm sure your replacement won't want assprints on their new door.

Love,
The People of Minnesota

E: Poe's Law be damned, this still sounds like something she'd do.

[Jamaal510]

26. It's getting increasingly difficult

to distinguish between satire and reality now. Michele saying something like this would not surprise me at all.
