(13,062 posts)they are a good fit to be a biblical president. Also helps if you have multiple wives and a few slaves, too.

(12,799 posts)Group: Bachmann 'biblically qualified' to be president
Calling Bachmann "biblically qualified" to be president at a Statehouse news conference Tuesday, former state Rep. Danny Carroll of Grinnell, Iowa, said the group is calling on Christians in Iowa to back Bachmann's candidacy.
"She is capable. She is trustworthy. She fears God, and she hates dishonest gain," said Carroll, who was surrounded by a dozen members of the endorsing group he described as "Iowa faith leaders and pastors."
-snip-
"The Bible says we are to choose those who are men of truth, who hate covetousness and fear God," he said. "I believe that (Bachmann) is guided by principles, not political calculations. I believe that the leader of our nation has to be a person who will always tell the truth and do the right thing."
Carroll said Bachmann isn't necessarily the only biblically qualified candidate in the field but she "best meets" the qualifications.
I guess she liked the sound of that?
And this just never gets old.

(5,649 posts)So... Bible says that women should submit to their husbands. MB is asked about this and says that no, her husband would not be the president, she would not submit to him in those matters.
Ergo... she won't submit, the Bible says she should... how is that biblical in any way?
Hypocrites...the whole lot of them.

Same goes for half the guys. How fuckin' arrogant that any of them think they're qualified.
