Huckabee Ad with another "Subliminal Cross"!

Huckabee1 cross

HuckabeeChristmas

A political ad from Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee appears to show yet another "Subliminal Cross" similar to the Christmas ad done by Huckabee earlier this year. The ad appears to take place in the same room as the Christmas ad but has a stone fireplace in the background instead of the imfamous bookshelf. In the background, the square stones seem to form an askew cross in the upper left corner, especially close to the end of the ad. While all candidates claim to be Christian, Huckabee seems to have had a theme in his campaign of being the "better" Christian than other candidates. Many believed that the Christmas bookshelf ad was a sneaky way of protraying this theme. Here are links to both ads:

Huckabee Complaint Ad

Huckabee Christmas Ad

The ad itself is a complaint about what Huckabee calls "negative campaigning", but the reality is that Huckabee does not want other candidates to talk about his record as Governor of Arkansas. During the debates in November, media pundits decided that Huckabee had "performed well" despite never saying anything that anyone can remember of any importance. This was followed by about a dozen TV interviews that only talked about Huckabee's Christian views and his weight loss. While Conservative organizations like WorldNetDaily and the Club for Growth had been scrutinizing Huckabee's record since his announcement, the mainstream media, along with FoxNews only began to question Huckabee's record after they had put on a pedestal for about a month.

Symbolics is against GOD, so he must be Catholic.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS -- EXODUS 20:1- 17

1) "Thou shalt have no other gods before me."
2) "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,"
3) "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain;"
4) "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy."
5) "Honor thy father and thy mother:"
6) "Thou shalt not kill."
7) "Thou shalt not commit adultery"
8) "Thou shalt not steal."
9) "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor."
10) "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house,.....nor anything that is thy neighbor's

Huckabee was sure batting his eyelids, he must be really, really lying, or very, very angry.

I don’t like Huckabee, but this finding-a-cross-in-the-fireplace-bricks is a joke, right?

If he filmed an ad outside under the open sky, someone would find symbols in the clouds floating by.

It is a kind of joke. I didn’t notice the Christmas ad cross until someone mentioned it on TV. I’m sure if anyone tried hard enough, you can find “crosses” in ads by other candidates. It just seems more noticable with Huckabee ads.

This is just stupid. There’s also a subliminal cheshire cat if you stare at Huckabee’s tie for two minutes.

Dang I thought it was a playboy bunny.

But on a serious note I think the book case stuff on this post is nuts.

>>The video shows it a lot better than the picture.

Huckabee Complaint Ad<<

Thanks for the link.

This is ridiculous... is the media now saying a candidate cannot be photographed in front of a brick wall because it looks Christian?

While I am no Huckabee supporter, I am really puzzled at this whole “subliminal cross” idiocy. First it was a book shelf, now what? Some cracks between rocks that don’t really even look anything at all like a cross unless you REALLY strain to force yourself to see it...ugh....some ignorant folks must really have too much time on their hands....and no life.

Now - Huckster - quit running from your record. It speaks much more loudly than any “negative ads” can....and volumes more than your own denials and double-talk.

To Huckabee, calling him out on his RECORD is “negative” - yet he refuses to answer any attacks on his record. Huck only says many of the claims are “untrue” but doesn’t specifically answer ANY of them.

A negative campaign would be calling his wife ugly or his kids fat. Making voters away of his liberal record is just campaigning - something he apparently can’t take very well.

Symbolics is against GOD, so he must be Catholic.

We Catholics use a crucifix or a t as a representation of our faith, not a plus sign (the supposed *cross* of bookshelves fame), which is no representation of Christ whatever.

The first thing I notice about these ads is the Huckster's Head is not centered.

Surely that is not an accident, so what is the head sharing the center of he shot with??
Oh, I see it now, a sign of Crucifixion.

Prophetic? Time will tell.
