I too felt that CitizenUSA’s analysis was spot on. That having been said, this is false:

“If Christian husbands loved and treated their wives like Christ loves the Church, wives would have no problem being under their husband’s umbrella.”

While it SHOULD be true, it is PRECISELY what the leftists have been fighting against (since the dawn of time, but their efforts have redoubled to destroy the family), in order to teach women in today’s society that men are bad, evil, violent, oppressive, and, if you watch television sitcoms, stupid. Another poster previously mentioned Yuri Bezmenov (AKA Edward Griffen). He was a KGB defector who warned the U.S. of the tactics that the leftists would use to infitrate the U.S. to bring down our Republic.

No matter how wonderful and loving a Christian husband, all of conventional society will berate him and try to destroy him, while at the same time telling women to belittle him and assert her equality (they mean dominance of him), which is part of why the divorce rate is skyrocketing. When men and women understand their proper roles in God’s plan, as Bachmann says she does (I’m not her judge, one way or another, but I do believe she tippy toed, though understandably, around the doctrine during Thursday’s debate), then they live happy, healthy lives together.

There are plenty of examples of men and women who live together in love and harmony, but each successive generation, of late, seems to have less and less of it, as culture drives for men to be effeminate and women to be masculine. The deal is that man submits to God, and woman submits to man. Men are to love their wives as Christ so loved the church, as CitizenUSA mentioned. Thus, women are still supposed to submit to their imperfect husbands, and men are still to love their imperfect wives. An imperfection, or sin does not mean that harmony and balance is to be thrown out the window, and that man suddenly doesn’t need woman, or that woman doesn’t need man, for neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord. It’s also why we are directed to not be unequally yoked.

So while a true Christian wife may “have no problem being under their husband’s umbrella,” not all wives are (and if fact I believe the vast majority would not be) willing to submit to their husbands, even if he “loved and treated their wives like Christ loves the Church,” simply because they’re indoctrinated away from everything Christlike that there is. There is a war on families, upon both men and women equally, but on the surface it appears to benefit women over men (it does not, but this promotion, is what causes a lot of resenment among men), because leftists claim it impowers women and improves their status (the same tactic used in the Garden), all the while destroying both man and woman. It’s the same theology as Social justice, just using gender rather than race.
