A Plea to Huckabee Supporters (Vanity)

“We find Mitt has more Biblical values and principles than those bigits, Huckabee and Mc Shamnesty and they CLAIM to be “Christians”.

Agreed.

“MH is a big government born again Christian”

No. You confuse Christianity with humanism. Mike is no Christian. He simply wears “religion” on his sleeve as a self righteous weapon but doesn’t practice it personally.

Mike does Christianity a dis service with his leftist leanings and hypocrisy.

[fideist]

First off, I am a born again Evangelical Christian who was born and raised in the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS) who also follow Joseph Smith. I now view Joseph Smith as a false prophet and the Mormon church as a cult. HOWEVER, I would have no problem voting for a Mormon for President as I am not electing a Pastor, I am electing a government official.

However, my vote is for Mike Huckabee and will remain so.

ALL the candidates are flawed this year. ALL have flipped on some conservative issues and are pandering to the base.

I, personally, am a social conservative first. The most important issues to me are the Second Amendment, Right to Life, traditional marriage, and family values. So I choose to vote for the candidate that has been loyal to those issues and flipped on others such as taxes and immigration. Instead of the candidate that has been loyal to other issues and flipped on mine.

I NEED conservative justices and judges. I NEED them. I can't risk that NEED on a flipper.

For that reason alone, I would vote for McCain before I would vote for Romney. As McCain too has been more loyal on my issues than Mitt.

Can McCain be trusted? Hell no! But he is more trustworthy than Mitt on social issues.

One more thing about Romney and abortion. He has historically bragged that his mother ran in Michigan for the Senate as a "pro-choice Republican." Read that again. He has historically bragged that his mother ran in Michigan for the Senate as a "pro-choice Republican."

Romney did not become pro-abortion to run for office in Taxachusetts, he already was pro-abortion! He only became pro-life to run for President. Get it? He is NOT pro-life!

Finally, calling any of our candidates "liberals" is poppycock and calls into question the integrity of the person saying it. ALL our candidates are primarily conservative, just not as conservative as we would want them to be.

You want liberal? You need look no further than Clinton or Obama. McCain is Goldwater compared to either of them.

No I am sorry nmh, it is not up to you to determine whether someone who says they are born again and calls Christ as Lord is a liar.

Only God knows a mans heart.

There are plenty of born again big government Christians out there. For whatever reason they have abdicated the care of the “least of these” from the church to the government.

That is not humanism.
