I think she should have responded with:
“Sounds like a question more suitable to Hillary Clinton.”
lol. Who the hell asked that?
Sounds more like a Soviet show-trial.
She said she loves and respects her husband and that the meaning (to her) of being submissive means being respectful to her husband. I liked her answer.
She knocked it out of the park.
in the original language its “Wives be supportive of their husbands” That’s why God made Eve from Adam’s Rib, not from his head to be above him, not from his foot to be beneath him but a companion to walk beside him.
A man is the head of his household, but its a stupid man who chooses a companion who won’t put her back to the wall with him and take on the world. Its also a stupid man who chooses a companion from which he will not take counsel from in all things.
Then they follow up with an attack on Bachmann implying that Christianity is a sexist religion which keeps women subservient. And she handled that one well.
But Fox was disgusting.
The reason AP didn't make the headline "Bachmann says husbands should be treated with respect" (her actual answer), is because screaming liberal bitches would have ripped down their buildings and slaughtered them for advertising such an offensive, repulsive heresy.
Might as well have been asked by the mouth of the snake, ‘hath God said’..... Unbelievers are blinded by their own foolish arrogance. This world would be a far greater place if we heeded the Almighty’s wisdom instead of rebellion against Him.
Ephesians 5:22-33
New International Version (NIV)
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[a] her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body. 31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”[b] 32 This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+5%3A22-33&version=NIV

Posting the entire passage since it seems the press and left in general always remove this from its context as though it is a one way street to hold women to be inferior, which it is not - the husband also has his own great responsibility that he must give to the wife as well.
Fox News owes Congresswoman Bachman a Major League Appology on all of their shows tomorrow (if not tonight) for that punk York’s question. I turned off the debate when I saw his next question was about gay marriage. Democraps never get these questions in a debate. I’ve had it with Fox News. What a bunch of low-life establishment clowns they are.
That was a snarky sexist question. She handled it well and the audience did not like it..Part of me wished she would have smacked York down like Newt did to Chris Wallace.
Would it not be for accurate to say that the Bible tells CHRISTIAN wives to be submissive to their husbands. Since that Pauline letter was written to the church and not to the general public. One could argue that the NT does not address marriage between two non-believers. They’re issue is their sin and having not yet truly dealing with who Christ was.
What a bull$hit question. Like she’s going to enact legislation to that effect. If people cannot see through the raw propoganda parading itself as journalism then they are blind.
As the world teeters on the precipice of complete economic collapse I couldn’t possibly live another minute without knowing each candidate’s thoughts on scriptural admonitions for spousal relationships!
Non-Christians will never understand what is meant by “marital submission” in a Christian marriage.
FOX wasted the debate opportunity on tabloid tripe.
They'd say "Americans want to hear about jobs & the economy and we'll get to that" then go off and ask asinine "gotcha" questions. It was irritating.
Per their 4 person "ad break" panel online, "jobs" was 9th of the 9 topics Fox told the candidates were part of the debate. #2, I think, was "candidate vulnerabilities."
Very sexist thinking. Why just ask Bachmann? I think it’s a stupid question but if he’s going to ask it why not ask the men also? I would love to have heard Romney’s answer. Mormonism is seriously patriarchal.
Did they ask any of the male candidates if they would consider screwing their secretary? Just curious.
