Did you catch this Letter to the Editor in the Pioneer Press yesterday? Stepbrother says he hasn't talked to Sen. Bachmann about Gay Marriage Regarding the article "Bachmann's stepsister opposes her effort (April 5)," Sen. Michele Bachmann makes a statement that is untrue. I am Bachmann's stepbrother and Helen La Fave's brother; Bachmann indicated that she's taken a vote count of our family concerning gay marriage. For the record, I've never spoken to Bachmann concerning gay marriage.I had e-mailed Bachmann asking why she had to be the one carrying the torch on this issue knowing we have a gay sister. My concern for my family does not give Bachmann the right to assume she knows my feelings about gay marriage. Maybe the reason "family-values" candidate Bachmann implies she took a family vote is so she doesn't have to explain why she chose to inject her family into this divisive subject that is now causing our family so much pain and discomfort.
