    Excuse me Oldmangrouch, but we stopped talking about Bachman a long time ago. We hijacked this thread and now we're bashing on Pelosi. Didn't you get the memo?

    We should have an emoticon for "nice changing the subject to avoid defending your posts".

    Summary:
    Bachmann said gays want to prey on children.
    The demand to repeal age of consent laws was initially raised in the gay movement to protect teens from abuse. Because we are not child abusers we never dreamed it would be taken to mean children.
    When others claimed it meant sex with children it was withdrawn.
    Denny tried to claim it is still a demand in the LGBT community by citing antigay sites* quoting 1972 positions. Because you can't find anything since 1972.
    Positions taken 40 years ago can change.
    I don't know what Pelosi said or what the context was.
    You can take an unflattering photo of anyone.

    *Hint: Any site that begins with "the homosexual agenda is" and is not a comedy site is an antigay site. No one either in the movement or who supports equality ever begins with "the homosexual agenda". It's like "there is one thing you can say about the Negro".

    crandc, she didn't say that.

    She said the elimination of age of consent laws and statutory rape laws would allow ADULTS (she didn't say gays) to prey on children.

    Listen for yourself. The audio is on the page linked in the OP.

    I'm not sure what Bachmann said, but I AM sure what the thread title says. Sly wrote it, so take ownership for it, Denny, and don't run from it.

    Oh Denny, way to eliminate everything that she said before. She was clearly talking about the gay community. She did say adults in that one part but she was slamming and saying ridiculous things about the gay community.

    I took the thread title word for word from the title of the article that I linked.

    http://www.rightwingwatch.org/conte...t-adults-freely-prey-little-children-sexually

    And instead of allowing Denny to selectively rehash what she said for you I suggest you click on the link and listen for yourself.

    I didn't say you were wrong. I said Denny was wrong that you were wrong. He implied you were wrong when he said that Bachmann hadn't said what you had said in the thread title, which he said to imply that Crandc was wrong to disagree with your title.

    She said what she said, not what people with an agenda say she said.

    What I said.

    Not what you said.

    What the hell are you talking about? Michele Bachmann is the one with the agenda. You make it sound like she is some innocent victim who has been terribly misquoted. She's not. You can try and spin it anyway you want be she in that interview was clearly attacking the gay community.

    She did not say "gays want to get rid of age of consent laws so gays can prey on children."

    Whoever says she said that either didn't listen to her in her own words or is deliberately (with an agenda) misrepresenting what she actually said.

    Have you actually said yet what Bachmann actually said? All you said was about what Crandc actually said. She was just saying what Sly had said.

    Re: Michele Bachmann: Gays Want To Let Adults 'Freely Prey On Little Children Sexuall

    1:40 in the first clip, she's talking about the gay community, "They want to abolish age of consent laws, which means we will do away with statutory rape laws so that adults will be able to freely prey on little children sexually. That’s the deviance that we’re seeing embraced in our culture today.”

    There you go.

    She did not say "gays want to get rid of the age of consent laws so they can prey on children."

    The effect of eliminating those laws would be adults would be able to freely...

    She said, "adults." Not "gay adults."

    So because Crandc got one word wrong in what she posted you're claiming that in your own words, "is deliberately (with an agenda) misrepresenting what she actually said."

    Saying gays instead of adults is hardly a deliberate misrepresentation of what Bachmann said. If suddenly adults were allowed to start fucking kids she is very clearly laying the blame for it at the feet of the gay community. Not the adult community (whatever the hell that would be.)

    Again, I would in all of this that it is Bachmann with the agenda, not Crandc.

    You do realize Denny is trolling you, right, Sly? He understands the concept of context, but he knows he can engage you in an endless debate if he pretends that the "adults" part of her contiguous comment was completely separate from the rest of her anti-gay diatribe.

    Actually he was trolling Crandc. I just jumped in there because I thought it was a very odd thing to do.

    Re: Michele Bachmann: Gays Want To Let Adults 'Freely Prey On Little Children Sexuall

    I already made the point. The thread title is correct. What other people are saying she said simply is not.

    I already said she deserves 2 pinochios out of 4 on the truth scale for saying that (other than NAMBLA) the gay agenda is to eliminate age of consent laws. They once did.

    Yeah, but he's trolling you now with lawyerball. "Prove that the adults she's talking about are gay adults even though her previous comment was about gay adults eliminating the age of consent."

    Re: Michele Bachmann: Gays Want To Let Adults 'Freely Prey On Little Children Sexuall

    What exactly is her anti-gay anything on that page?

    After all that, Bachmann insisted that she was communicating a message of love for gay people and that conservatives must show the nation that God “is so much more powerful than the evil we see unleashed upon the world today.”

    “Our message is to spread goodness and joy and wholeness and healing, and we do that through a loving God with a message that frees people, it doesn’t enslave people, we shouldn’t fear giving out this very good word,” Bachmann said. “It takes these concepts for the purpose of bringing liberty, joy, healing, wholeness and a fresh way of thinking for people’s lives.”

    (not my thing, but she's entitled to believe it)
