Watch: Second City parodies Michele Bachmann's husband's dubious sexuality
By Peter SmithJuly 13th, 2011, 6:30 pmComments (15)Michele Bachmann's husband, Marcus, made the news recently for calling gay people "barbarians" who "need to be disciplined." Coming from the head of a counseling center that purports to "cure" homosexuality, that sounds awfully gay, doesn't it? (Just think of those big, sweaty barbarians and all the ways Mr. Bachmann might like to discipline them.)
Who knows if there's a "cure" for homosexuality, but the best cure for raging dickheadism is surely humor; with that in mind, here's a sketch from Second City addressing the Bachmanns' extremely heterosexual marriage.

Stay classy Second City.
What does this do other than goad the Bachmanns into reacting even more outlandishly to ostracize homosexuals? If it were funny, I could forgive. But this ... pointless and a waste of a fancy wig.
I'm not surprised that the two right-wing closet cases who posted above don't think it's funny.
Thay guys! Bachmann's gonna go down in flamers! I mean...flames!
I'm a gay man who knew he was a Democrat at age 6, when I felt different from the other children playing with their George Bush Sr. toys.... it just felt wrong. Someone placed a Clinton figurine in my hand one day and I just thought, oh my God, I'm a Democrat. It took many years to finally admit it to my family, but to have it undermined here, in my "safe place" .... painful.
Yes, we all know Mr. Bachmann has some skeletons in his closet, but imitating a lisp and giving him hot pants is middle school locker room material.
It's really not funny. Nor is it good satire. A waste of time.
I thought Second City did comedy.
You guys have no sense of humor. This is hilarious. "Dr." B. is an obvious closet case. Gaydar is real: https://hooksexup.com/news/love-sex/women-have-better-gaydar-when-theyre-...
I think its funny.
wow to those who think this is not funny( it's spot on over the top FUNNY)- hope you got your troll money! they sure are obsessed by the "gay"
and we sure know why !!!!!
They're just not slapping a lisp on him. Have you HEARD the man speak?

Yes, every straight man is like John Wayne and Clint Eastwood and every homo is like Richard Simmons.
It's called "satire", Groovy.
It's mildly amusing. I have no issues with parody.
I laughed, I cried, I sobbed into wet kleenex.
Franlky I think that's absolutely good stuff.
Now you say something
