Bachmann: I didnt get anything wrong
The congresswoman touts her flawless run for the presidency and love of Beyoncé
BY ALEX SEITZ-WALD
Tea Party Rep. Michele Bachmann has been laying low since last Novembers election when she came dangerously close to losing her House seat, possibly in preparation for a bid against Minnesota Sen. Al Franken in 2014.
But Bachmann, being Bachmann, couldnt stay quiet forever or even very long. And yesterday, she participated in a newsmaker interview at Patrick Henry College, a conservative evangelical school in Virginia (the man who introduced her said he wished the Tea Party movement had been a little more conservative). She addressed everything from her favorite contemporary singer (Beyoncé) to gay marriage (bad) to her mistakes (none).
When asked about the inevitability of gay marriage, Bachmann stood up from her chair to say that heterosexual marriage is immutable and the basis of our society between men and women. I wont be deviating, she said, explaining that no matter what humans think, God created marriage and that is unquestionable.
Asked if any good came from feminism, Bachmann said that realizing that women are valuable and that women should be listened to is very important. However, she continued, But in my opinion, that wasnt feminism, that was Jesus Christ who did that. Because Jesus Christ did more to lift up women
We didnt need the 1960s to tell us that, all you have to do is read Proverbs 31.
