If my son killed a dog or any animal like his did I would get him some mental help asap. Nor would I cover it up. My gut feeling tells me the Huckabee’s aren’t what they would like us to think they are & I totally trust my gut feelings. If this guy can pardon murderers as he has then we aren’t in safe hands with him. I agree fully with your post.
Your GUT is right.
My GUT, too, tells me the same thing about the Huckabees, both the family as a whole, and Mike the man.
And I am very good at reading people, I have been told.
This is all to similar to the pre-Election euphoria over Jimmy Carter as somehow our national savior.
I do think a lot of Christians are in for a MAJOR disappointment. And I do not say this lightly.
I agree with your gut feeling. I got the same when I read the link with all the evidence pointing to Huckabee's having had gastric bypass surgery: it made my hair stand on end. Even without yet knowing they hail from the same town, I thought that this must be a liar in the Gold Medal liar category with Bill Clinton! I mean, what would have been the shame of having the weight loss surgery? He still got himself in shape and ran the marathons. But no, he had to go align himself with a doctor who runs a nonsurgical program, and then WRITE A BOOK about how (vaguely) his unbelievably fast weight loss came from diet and exercise only. That is gall unfathomable.
Then came the Christmas ad. It was a very nice ad, and the lit bookcase in back was illuminated to form a cross. They then took the camera and put it on a dolly so that the background would seem to move toward and behind Huckabee as he spoke. It was a nice effect, I am sure, for Christians, as they celebrated one of their most important holidays. But Huckabee must have been upset that the cross was not subliminal ENOUGH! He actually MOCKED people who "noticed" the cross, telling them that "It was a bookcase. A BOOKCASE." He joked then that he'd only admit that if you played the ad backwards it would say "Paul is dead, Paul is dead," the famous subliminal "messages" in old Beatles songs in the 1960s. Now THAT is a sociopathic lie. There was no reason to lie about it. He's Christian, he made a Christian ad about Christmas. He should have said, "Yes. Isn't that a nice effect?" People who lie about seemingly little things when it would benefit them MORE to own the truth tend to be seriously psychologically flawed.
It does not detract from this "armchair diagnosis" to then find out that his son, as a teen, deliberately killed a dog in cold blood. While children can have reasons apart from bad parenting for being that deeply disturbed, Occam is starting to point toward a family who is not whom they appear to be, that is for SURE.
