An Iowan who voted for Buttigieg wants her vote back when she learns he’s gay (One example of an ignorant voter)
American Thinker ^ | 02/05/2020 | Andrea Widburg

A video made the rounds on Tuesday showing an Iowa caucus voter who submitted her card for Buttigieg, learned for the first time that he is gay, and asked to get her card back. The video was notable for two facts: (1) a person who was neither a political junkie nor an activist hadn’t gotten the message about Buttigieg’s sexual orientation and (2) the Buttigieg caucus worker and the voter engaged in a very civil conversation.

Neither woman emerged with a different viewpoint, but each was respectful of the other. Indeed, the caucus worker was much more respectful toward the voter than Buttigieg was when he essentially kicked a woman out of the Democrat Party because she was pro-Life. (In other words, the statement in the tweet below that the voter “flipped out” is a lie.)

Because of the conspiracy theory age in which we live, people have posited that the voter is a plant, for surely no one could be that ignorant about Mayor Pete’s sexuality. However, most Americans are not obsessed with politics. A lot of people confine themselves to reading a candidate’s policy statements, ignoring other (mostly) inessential details.

Regarding Buttigieg’s policy statements, it’s worth remembering that, behind that affable “Leave It To Beaver” exterior, Buttigieg, a red diaper baby and is almost as hard a leftist as Warren and Bernie – not to mention the fact that he was a mediocre mayor at best.

In 2011, when Buttigieg was elected mayor of South Bend, Indiana, only 10% of the city’s residents voted for him, with fewer than 8% later reelecting him. South Bend, incidentally, is the 306th largest city in America but ranks 69th in a list of America’s most dangerous cities. As mayor, Buttigieg’s accomplishments including firing the black police chief, gentrifying black neighborhoods,

FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO LOOK BEYOND THE GAY THING... HERE's SOMETHING TO LOOK INTO...

The Myth Of Pete Buttigieg, ‘Moderate’. From health care and abortion to guns and immigration, and from the Supreme Court to the Electoral College, the man is decidedly a radical.

This smells of a false flag event.
Why was she wearing another candidate’s pin and voting for Pete? Just for starters...

There’s no MODERATE running on the dem side.

There’s about 3 or 4 MODERATE dems in office in the country (unless there’s a lot down south that i don’t know about).

And why is this woman b.tching about him being a married fruit?

I’d rather a million married fruits (They are deciding their own souls) than a million murdered babies.

Dont tell me she doesn’t know abortion is just dandy with the dem party.

She quotes the Bible?? a dem??

Something’s fishy here.

I’m starting to wonder if this was some kind of stunt. I just don’t believe that someone would go through the effort of going to caucus, supporting him, and having no idea he has a ‘partner’. Even beyond that, once can just look at his face...

I have an elderly neighbor who voted for our gay governor of Colorado. She had no idea that he was “married” to a man and that they have an adopted child. She was flabbergasted. Stupid woman.

Give her 40 lashes and send her to the re-education camp.

I beg to differ

Buttigieg’s caucus worker was supercilious..........Answering this poor voter ( who just wanted her vote returned) with words of thinly veiled disdain!

Buttigieg hack used every ‘liberal feel good’ word and idea she could muster!

Little Buttigieg hack made me want to hurl.

Yes, the other lady should have done her homework, but maybe in Iowa they’re still Christian or conservative enough to NOT EXPECT a candidate to be openly homosexual and married to a man!!!!!!!

At my final judgement I too am going with "I wasn't around when the Bible was written" excuse.

I'll let you know how it goes for me.

Staged, to make anyone who opposes Buttplug into a stupid bigot.

IMHO we’ve already had our first Sodomite President and look how it turned out, so why make that mistake again?

RE: “I wasn’t around when the Bible was written” excuse.

I wasn’t around when the Ten Commandments were given too.

Doesn’t make murder, stealing and adultery OK.

Methinks this was a typical DemocRAT/MSM/Slime Mold setup.
Sorry, but if it walks like them, talks like them, and smells to heaven like them, yup, they are excrement.

Few conservatives give an Obama about where a candidate gets their sex jollies. We DO care if they embrace a plethora of ideas that have never worked and never will work.
