"We respect each other."
AMES, Iowa (AP) — The Bible tells wives to be submissive to their husbands. If she were president, would that apply to Michele Bachmann?

Bachmann, the only woman in the Republican presidential field, says she interprets "submission" to mean "respect."

The question by conservative columnist Byron York drew boos from the audience.
