- Ordinarily I might say this is a distinction without a difference. But since "servile" is used to define submissive, there is no distinction and hence no difference.
But I like what she's smoking! - Reply to this comment

- When words and actions don't agree, there's something unscrupulous going on. Bachmann talks one way and walks another way. The same can be said for all the Republican candidates, except maybe Romney. In a very convoluted sense, when he says something, he walks that way. On the other hand, he'll say something almost diametrically opposed to what he HAD said, but he will walk that way. I guess it's an LDS tradition.
I've been married to a former "old family" member (distant relative of the Romneys, the Spilsurys, and step-relative of the Kimballs, of the LDS Church for 20 years, and this is the way they work. - Reply to this comment

- Yeah, it sounds like the good ole Christian spin to make the bible sound better than it is. So if submissive and respect are the same words, then Bachman's husband is submissive to her? Although, come to think of it, he looks and acts a bit like he's had some of his gay prayed away.

- This is a stupid redirection to hurt her political position. Someone should ask the same question of the men. Lets roll back history to Bill Clinton and ask him the question. I believe in Michelle Bachmann for the fact she came to the party with people who cared about America i.e. Tea Party no other candidate did this. All others tried to ignore the Tea Party. Tea Party is is a movement to restore America pride, restore solvency for future generations and make America the country everyone looks up to including our children. Tea Party are real believers in America. Rick Perry passes on debate and now wants to join the Tea Part, what? for sure he is not real, first a democrat, quick switch to republican now he wants to be Tea Party. As a Texan Rick Perry is not to be trusted.

- If she says submissive means respect, she has a different dictionary than the rest of it. So, her hubby "respects" her too? Where in the Bible does it say that the husband should be submissive to the wife? LMAO Doubt anyone can find anything in the Bible where men are not totally in charge... except maybe where Mary says to Joseph, "Baby, I know we ain't had sex yet, but I'm pregnant. Darndest thing, doncha think?"

- I'm still on the fence about how I feel towards any of these GOP candidates, I feel that there really has not been enough debate on the issues to really have an informed opinion, after all the debate has really just begun. So I guess it is no surprise that the media is searching for their own "talking points" to make news for people to read. Unfortunately, this particular talking point is easily sensational.
Focusing on what this woman's religious views are is the least of anyone's worries. We should be focusing on the top issues - debt limits, out of control spending, job creation, credit ratings, energy independence, fixing the housing market, re-affirming our place as a world super power, re-evaluating our foreign policy, ending our wars/conflicts, etc.
I find it interesting that many people who voted for Obama so easily looked past the fact that he was a member of a very radical church that preached hate, among other controversial topics. If one can look past that, then what makes Bachmann or any other candidate different? Is it because they are a GOP candidate? What about the Clinton's? They are supposedly religious people, why don't we have a problem with them?
Let's face it, we all have our own views on religion - that's never going to change. What's more is there will never be a perfect candidate that will be in agreement with everyone. Religion is an important issue, but right now it is not the most important one. We should be evaluating the potential candidates according to who is most fit to lead us from an economic stand point. That is what is most important. - Reply to this comment
- Ain't hard to predict who wears the pants in her relationship.
Most likely Michele drives her husband around like a remote-controlled zombie. - Reply to this comment
