Yes that did happen in Minnesota, but before you hate us the thing was never brought up, some Republican leaders toyed with the idea before the special session commenced but agreed to drop it before the session. However the sponsor of that ban, State Sen. Michele Bachmann, a raging homophobic lunatic, still kept demanding it come up for a vote and argued it was more important to children's future than the budget and properly funding schools (yes, I wish I could say I was making this up.) This is the same senator who broke out into tears when the Senate President announced the end of the normal session before her bill came up for a vote as she kept begging him for a vote, and got members of a bunch of fundie churches to come with her to the capitol and pray over the desks of DFL senators who were against it. Now she's running for Mark Kennedy's House seat, meaning I'm hoping like hell Wetterling beats her.

Thats good to hear since I could never hate MN, they were the only sane state in 1984, denying Il Duce a 50 state sweep.

I am worried that religious fanatics such as Bachmann are able to be elected in Minnesota. With nuts like her and Kennedy, the Minneapolis suburbs seem like Dixie of the North or something.
