“The Marriage Vow: A Declaration of Dependence upon MARRIAGE and FAMILY”

There’s a new pledge in Republicanville, “The Marriage Vow: A Declaration of Dependence upon MARRIAGE and FAMILY” (emphasis in the original), and Michele Bachmann is the first to sign!  Most of the pledge is typical Christian-Conservative, but this part is both crazy and offensive:

Slavery had a disastrous impact on African-American families, yet sadly a child born into slavery in 1860 was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two-parent household than was an African-American baby born after the election of the USA’s first African-American President.

Wow!  Never mind that slave families were routinely broken up and sold off – and murdered, raped, and abused.  This statement is beyond offensive.

BTW, she’s also signed onto banning porn and calling homosexuality a choice.

The ninth step calls for the banning of “all forms” of pornography. The pledge also states that homosexuality is both a choice and a health risk. You can read all the details of the pledge here.

Know what else is a choice?  Religion.

Update: She’s also a real ‘merican:

CARL QUINTANILLA (CNBC): Does it strike you that as the unemployment rate goes up that your chances of winning office also go up?

MICHELE BACHMANN: Well, that could be. Again, I hope so.

Priceless.
