If Rep. Michele Bachmann is a good Christian why is she running for elective office which is against the Christian teaching that women should not have authority over men? "no woman [is] to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent" (1 Timothy 2:12).

You male chauvinist pig! This isn't a Christian theocracy.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
It does not matter. What type of Christian would allow a woman to have authority over a man in contradiction to the New Testament as in being in charge of the armed forces?
With the economy still in the dumper -- maybe permanently? -- and full-time jobs becoming as scarce as rain during a drought, huge percentages of Americans have had their (misplaced) faith in the American dream shaken, the upper-middle-class consumerist lifestyle is exposed as a mirage for anybody who plays by the rules. Capitalism and the America that embraced it as a way of life is now and forever more a failure. It does me good to know that the generation that voted in Reagan and his ideology will see their America die from that ideology before their very own eyes and knowing they had a hand in its destruction.
How can she be a good Christian when she routinely lies? ----- http://www.factcheck.org/2011/06/bachmanns-waterloo/ Tagline for sale - inquire within
I am just wondering how Christian men can allow a woman to have authority over them in contradiction to the world of God?

Barack Obama began to attend church in adulthood in Chicago, and from 1989 to 2008 was a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ, which introduced itself online as "a congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA... and remain 'true to our native land,' the mother continent." Chyeah. 0bama's brand of "Christianity" is MUCH safer than Bachmann's. And LESS controversial. How does 0bama's "COMMITMENT TO AFRICA" work for Americans, Godwinson? So let's recap: According to 0bama's "Christian" church, his commitment is NOT to America, NOT to Jesus Christ, but to remain 'true to our native land,' the mother continent." No problem with that, eh?
"It's not surprising, then, they [White Pennsylvanians] get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." ~ Comrade-in-Chief Barry Hussein 0bama
I'll bet you were. *snicker* Hey...did you know that the first religion in President Obama's life was Islam? That the religion of his father, who named the President 'Barack Hussein was Islam? When Barry was 6 years old, President Obama's mother then remarried an Indonesian Muslim whose beliefs had an inclusive flair. In his autobiography, President Obama described his stepfather's beliefs as "a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths." 0bama is just sooooo hip! He's into Muslim-Animism thing AND "COMMITMENT TO AFRICA"! What could possibly go wrong to America lead by a man who "leads" with such a (ahem) solid belief system and background??

You mean when he was attending a Catholic school?

Are you saying Manchelle doesn't have Barry whipped? Wait....Let's consult our Muslim/African-Separatist-Fake-Christian-Theology handbook to see if that's ok.

No, I mean the second he was born to a Muslim father....and for the first six years of his life that Daddy taught him about Islam at home.

Gee, THAT wouldn't have possibly changed since it was exposed during 0bama's campaign as a pseudo-Christian Black Separatist Theology Cult, would it?

Ummm - his sperm donor daddy wasn't around much to teach him anything.
"...all of the equations in neoclassical economics are rubbish. The differential equations describe nothing. Economics is not about mathematics, it is about the human being." Sandeep Jaitly
Well then - I must have missed THAT particular gospel of Jesus Christ. Can you imagine the congregation's confusion when 0bama's "Uncle" and Reverend blurted out, "Not god Bless America, NO NO NO! God DAMN America!"??

We haven't even much evidence WHO the "sperm daddy" was, quite frankly - despite his surname. I AM puzzled by THIS comment by your Dear "Christian" Leader: "The Muslim call to prayer is the most beautiful sound in the world." I'm sure it's nothing.

Huh? You mean Reverund Wright wasn't actually a Black Separatist Theology Cult Fuhrer?

"The Muslim call to prayer is the most beautiful sound in the world." I'm sure it's nothing. Presidents always play up to those who control our energy supply. Maybe he should have alienated the Saudis by dissing their religion. I'm sure that would go over well.
Falwell and Robertson think God has damned America Then Falwell said, "What we saw on Tuesday, as terrible as it is, could be miniscule if, in fact, God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve." Robertson replied, "Well, Jerry, that's my feeling. I think we've just seen the antechamber to terror, we haven't begun to see what they can do to the major population." Falwell said, "The ACLU has got to take a lot of blame for this. And I know I'll hear from them for this, but throwing God...successfully with the help of the federal court system...throwing God out of the public square, out of the schools, the abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked and when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad...I really believe that the pagans and the abortionists and the feminists and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way, all of them who try to secularize America...I point the finger in their face and say you helped this happen." Robertson said, "I totally concur...

All this talk about Muslims so Liberator can ignore my question about how Christians can ignore the New Testament commandment that women should not have authority over men like Bachmann will have if she is elected president.

Falwell and Robertson think God has damned America. 1) Neither has characterized it in the vicious manner and context 0bama's Black Separatist Cult pastor did. Wright celebrated 9/11. 2) Neither Falwell or Robertson were/are the pastor/"Uncle"/mentor of ANY U.S. Presidential candidate. 3) Given the context of 0bama's racism and animus against Whitey and America TO BEGIN WITH, Reverund Wright's "G-DAMN AMERICA" was nothing more than a frothing screed against White America. As to Falwell's assessment as an actual Christian, the guy was right. God can indeed bless or curse a people for their respective infidelity or betrayal. Even the Founders acknowledged The Almighty's protection and blessing. Reject Him and His protection

"Playing up"? Lol, no. 0bama was as sincere as can be. Maybe he should have alienated the Saudis by dissing their religion. I'm sure that would go over well. As a Muslim, why would he do that?

It was lovely, wasn't it? It was almost as sweet and submissive as 0bama bending over for the Saudi King and simulating a BJ in front of several embarrassed World leaders. But hey - Dubya is also as queer as a canary.

The context is subtle but different to someone like you. You: "Women should not have authority over men" (1 Timothy 2:12): "no woman [is] to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent" American King James Version: "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence." The context is "teaching" the Word and displacing the man as a Spiritual leader. And NOT in the plural. Concepts that are foreign to you.

Yes, some do. Dubya Bush may have kissed and held hands with the Saudi and gone further with his other boyfriends, but at least he didn't bend over and grovel at the crotch of the Saudi like 0bama in Macy's window in broad daylight. Were you proud of your Dear Leader's odd behavior as "President of the USA"?

They seem to look for any excuse, and if one doesn't present itself they make up one. It definitely appears to be in their comfort zone.
The context is "teaching" the Word and displacing the man as a Spiritual leader. And NOT in the plural. Concepts that are foreign to you. That disqualifies women form any authority as president, she would not be able to lead a prayer as president. Bachmann is according to you and scripture wrong when she opines on religion - she should shut up because her having religious opinions is offensive to God.

Bachmann falsely claimed that she and her husband "have never gotten a penny" from a family farm that received federal subsidies. But she reported income from the farm in 2006, 2008 and 2009 — the most recent year available — on her congressional financial disclosure statements.
She claimed she had been "faithful" to her pledge not to request federal earmarks. But she requested $40 million in transportation earmarks in the 2009 fiscal year budget after taking the pledge, later claiming such projects should not be subjected to her promise. She withdrew her requests after the House Republicans took a party position in 2010 not to seek earmarks.
Bachmann wrongly blamed President Obama for increasing the number of federal transportation workers who earn more than $170,000 from one to 1,690 during the recession. At least two-thirds of those employees were receiving more than $170,000 before Obama took office.
She criticized the president for a 73 percent increase in government "limousines." But one department accounted for the increase, and it had a long-term plan, pre-dating Obama, to add armored vehicles. The term "limousine" includes armored vehicles and sedans, not just actual limos.
She claimed government money received by her husband's counseling clinics did not benefit the business, because the funds paid for employee training. It's true the clinics received $24,041 for training, but the business received thousands more in government funds, including money for treating crime victims.
The three-term congresswoman repeated — on two Sunday shows — the false claim that the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said the federal health care law will "cost the economy 800,000 jobs." The CBO never said that. It said there will be a "small" impact on jobs.

NOT to Jesus Christ,
Trinity United Church of Christ has been called by God to be a congregation that is not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ and that does not apologize for its African roots! As a congregation of baptized believers, we are called to be agents of liberation not only for the oppressed, but for all of God’s family. We, as a church family, acknowledge, that we will, building on this affirmation of "who we are" and "whose we are," call men, women, boys and girls to the liberating love of Jesus Christ, inviting them to become a part of the church universal, responding to Jesus’ command that we go into all the world and make disciples!

"Where government fail, God never fails. When God says it, it’s done. God never fails. When God wills it, you better get out the way, cause God never fails. When God fixes it, oh believe me it’s fixed. God never fails. Somebody right now, you think you can’t make it, but I want you to know that you are more than a conqueror through Christ.
