...

"Some people really like classical music and ballet and opera. It's not my cup of tea. I would like to think that there's room in America for people who have different points of views without screaming, shouting and wanting to shut their businesses down."

Comparing it to alcoholism is like asking to be beat up.

He didn't say anything about alcoholism.

I'm sure he did it on purpose just to kill an innocent person!

Come on, get some wisdom. Gov. Mike Huckabee went up against Bill and Hillary at the height of their power in their own state . . . AND WON.

He's the only Christian that can get this done - he can beat Hillary!

Huh? Why would Christians ever want to elect a bishop in a cult that has completely distorted who Jesus is and what salvation means.

I didn't know that he was a protestant....

I don’t care if he can turn water into beer. The man’s a fraud and shouldn’t be elected dog catcher.

the Huckster was clearly saying that, like alcohol or classical music do not appeal to him, neither does the gay lifestyle.

It sounds to me like he is OK with gay marriage as long as people are ok with people not liking it.

Gay marriage is an oxymoron. It goes against all the norms of society for the last 10,000 years. It is NOT OK. It is truly the fast track to Sodom.

I can’t imagine Huck taking on some of the international bad boys and coming away with his hide intact.

Glad someone else posted this. TV Guide said his speech was “cringe-worthy on homosexuality.” I assume it’s because he mentioned G-d’s opinion on homosexuality recorded in the Torah.

The article wrote: But he remained steadfastly opposed to rights for gays and lesbians, although research has found a biological basis for their attraction to others of the same sex.

I believe that’s an outright lie. Whole article must be dung.

It’s all a part of the “can’t we all just get along” part of the new world order and one world religion.

The twist being it is more or less aimed at those who howl the loudest - those who insist on us accepting their abnormal lifestyles and who retaliate when we show some reticence...

He couldn't even appeal to enough Republicans to advance much in the primaries.

You'll get Jeb.

It's time to bottom line America's problem, which is, we need a Christian culture. It's the only way we survive as a free country.

Gov. Mike Huckabee is the only one that understands how to retain that culture as he moves through politics. He is also a great speaker - handles the media well.
