3. She knows she can't even answer the question. |
|
Political plutonium in front of the Leno audience. Only something she can get away in front of republicans, or tea partiers. I bet she'd answer that question without hesitation on the Limbaugh show, for example.

4. She never offered an excuse for it at all. |
|
She just refused to answer the question. Marriage Equality, on the other hand, she tried to skate around it but finally gave an answer. A ludicrous answer but an answer nonetheless.

5. I'm a little surprised that Jay even brought it up |
|
That's not his style. Letterman I can see. I give him credit - this issue must be important to him. Good for him! More of us, who aren't personally affected, need to make it an important issue. That's how you change things.

7. Bachmann implied that since Leno had been hapilly married |
|
for thrity years to a "wife" is a reason to legally prohibit some people, but not her of course, the same legal right is really a high level of cruelty.
It iss not the gays who are pathological in wanting a loving family it the Bachmans, who want them to not have a loving family, and to be legally punished if they attempt to.

11. Leno came back more than once...to his credit. |
|
Bachmann evaded. I would like to see Rachael interview this jerk.. Then you would see Bachmann scrim, fidget and evade.
But Racheal would get some kind of answer...it wouldnot be pretty for Bachmann

That's one thing about the republican party that I don't like, well among many other things lol but Bachman, O'Donnel, & Palin... they really don't help the woman's movement
why can't they find an intelligent woman to run? That's something I just don't get
Leno is cool as always

13. So she is saying..... |
|
A happily married man walks into the clinic, says I'm happy, a great career, lovely wife and fantastic children. And they say, we will need to treat you for those issues? Or is it just those gay issues that need treating?

14. I really don't think Bachmann is an issue anymore.. |
|
I am not sure the Republicans take her seriously as a candidate. Perry, yes, and he's far more dangerous, then she is. She's wacko nuts, but Perry.. He's like someone with a gun who is willing to use it, no matter what.
