Apparently Michele Bachmann never saw the part of the marriage vow that said "Slavery had a disastrous impact on African-American families, yet sadly a child born into slavery in 1860 was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two-parent household than was an African-American baby born after the election of the USA's first African-American President." On Hannity, she said that was not part of the document she signed.
This appears to be a case of downright lying by Bachmann or an inability to read carefully. Perhaps she just has no regard for the truth and has a preconceived notion of reality that can NEVER be changed no matter how much credible evidence is presented. It seems more likely that she is in such a frenzy to get to the most bigoted part of the Republican party, the social conservatives, that she will sign anything that she thinks will increase her standing for that group. The 2012 Republican primary rolls on!
