10 Questions Bachmann's Husband Must Answer About "Christian Counseling"
http://thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/10-questions-bachmanns-husband-must-answer-about-christian-counseling/politics/2011/07/07/23180

snip

1.Who licenses your clinic? Are they capable of regulating so-​called “ex-​gay” practices?
2.Who regulates (supervises) your clinic?
3.How many federal dollars do your clinic and clients receive annually? How do you reconcile state and federal funds with your wife’s belief that that equates to Socialism?
4.Does spending federal funds this way violate the separation of church and state? How could it possibly not?
5.Who insures your clinic in the event that therapy fails, or that clients are harmed?
6.How many gay-​to-​straight conversion therapies succeeded vs. failed?
7.What is the exact nature of the “reparative” therapy your business performs? Is there physical contact involved? Are there medical techniques used?
8.How many patients suffered? Were any suicides successful, or attempted, or threatened? How many of your patients have died? Your website states you treat patients as young as five, and you have stated parents should discourage children from being gay. What is the earliest age you have “counseled” children in your “reparative” therapy work? What relapse rates are seen via your follow-​up program?
9.You have stated Bachmann and Associates has “27 Christian counselors, Christ-​centered, very strong in our understanding of who the Almighty Counselor is, and as we rely on God’s word and the Almighty Counselor.” How do you determine if a prospective counselor applying for work with Bachmann and Associates is Christian, and if you do, doesn’t that violate the law?
10.How do you reconcile your oath to “first do no harm,” with your statements that gays are “barbarians,” and that “barbarians need to be educated, need to be disciplined?”


I'll wait with baited breath for his answers

2. He takes his instructions from his god
He does not really care what you or I think
because he is doing god's work

You have to also remember michele is a HUGE fan of Bradlee Dean,
a corrupt minister that encourages the killing of gays

3. Bachmanns are hypocrites.
He said in an interview that homosexuality is a result of a "sinful nature" and he described the moral turpitude of all those who "tolerate" homosexuality. He is a fascist pig, he is a hypocrite and he is a liar to boot.

4. I prefer to look at the both of them as
PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVEN OVER THEIR SOULS TO SATAN AND ARE LOOKING TO CONVERT MORE SOULS TO THE ANTI-CHRIST


Just my thoughts on the matter
