Bachmann Clinic gets a sparkly facelift

Yesterday, a group of self-described "gay barbarians" descended upon Michele and Marcus Bachmann’s “pray away the gay” clinic and demanded that Marcus come out and discipline them for their “deviant” behavior.

Marcus Bachmann, who conducts “reparative therapy” intended to convert homosexuals, has said that gays are “barbarians who need to be disciplined.” The horde requested to speak directly with Bachmann and experience some “discipline” for themselves.

When Mr Bachmann failed to show, the barbarians sprinkled glitter throughout the empty waiting room and reception area, chanting, “You can’t pray away the gay — baby, I was born this way!”

“Michele and Marcus Bachmann think gay people are barbarians?” asked LGBT activist, and glitter bomb organizer, Nick Espinosa. “I think its clear to everyone who the real barbarians are, based on the Bachmanns’ archaic views on LGBT equality.”

Bachmann, who does not have a license to practice psychology, has denied that his clinic forces ex-gay therapy on anyone, offering it only when asked for. But really, isn't that bad enough?
