Hyperbole: MSNBC Host Says Bachmann Wants to ‘Extinguish’ Gays

Minnesota Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann. The 2012 GOP presidential hopeful has taken her share of flak from over-the-top pundits and talk-show hosts. But now an anchor of a non-opinion daytime news show at a major cable news outlet has joined in.

On Friday’s broadcast of “MSNBC Live,” host Thomas Roberts asked GOProud’s Jimmy LaSalvia why he would be so willing to replace President Barack Obama, especially in the person of Bachmann.

“But you will replace him with a person that would extinguish you,” Roberts said. “You’re replacing him with a person that doesn’t believe that that you have a right in this country to get married, that believes you don’t even have a right in this country to be gay because she co-owns a clinic that will convert you.”

LaSalvia didn’t directly acknowledge Roberts’ “extinguish” comments, but said he was undeterred.

He'll be waiting a long time for that meeting with homophobe Bachmann. This is the same gay man who doesn't believe in "hate crimes" and would prefer to shoot the attacker. Actually. . .he has a point THERE.

:o)

Nothing but lies and hate speech directed at Bachman which is perfectly acceptable to do against an American citizen if you disagree with the intolerant anti religion bigots on the left.

Good for Michele for standing up to the Left Machine.

Roberts is simply another dope.
