MikeHuckabee.com - I Like Mike!

Those interested should llok at the entire article. I had to cut some interesting statements because of the 300 word limit. Also, IMHO, our knowledge of HIV/AIDS has changed a lot since 1992.

Oh well, even a blind pig finds an acorn every now and then.

Huckabee must know something about epidemiological principles to make wild public health statements. This of course, violates the laws of political correctness, not to mention the marketing of deviance by the gayly diseased community.

Well the quarantine was not necessary, though he may not have known that then. The idea of having Hollywood celebrities fund the cure is fantastic. I wish he still promoted that idea. Hollywood is always talking about taxing me more. They are zillionaires. They push the idea that homosexuality is healthy and good. Let them fund the cure for AIDS. Great idea! There’s a lot of justice in that.

When asked about AIDS research in 1992, Huckabee complained that AIDS research received an unfair share of federal dollars when compared to cancer, diabetes and heart disease.

This is still true. Good for him for having the courage to say it.

I’m surprised this is coming out now, since the dems are going to hit him with it again if he gets the nomination.

"`My administration will be the first to have an overarching strategy for dealing with HIV and AIDS here in the United States, with a partnership between the public and private sectors that will provide necessary financing and a realistic path toward our goals,’’ Huckabee said in a statement posted on his campaign Web site last month."

I liked the "let Hollywood celebrities fund aids research from their own pockets" idea much better.
Frankly, I'm sick to death of cure aids funding drives and the feds giving billions away, only to be spent by the UN on fancy hotels, fine cuisine and useless conferences, then send their minions out to promte abortion and promote gay sex.

Want a cure for aids? keep your butt covered and pants zipped.
As for the aids epidemic in Africa, how many times can the total population die from aids? How many times has it been now, 2- 3 times ? If aids is such an epidemic in Africa, you'd think they would have learned by now how NOT to catch it.

Perhaps more evolution needs to take place until they do. The same applies for aids in America, and everywhere else. There is a cure available to stop the spread of aids, and it's completely free. The problem is those who spread it don't want to take it. Too bad.

Put them on the pancake diet too.

They isolated TB And smallpox victims. What kind of idiot feels they have to suck a queer? Fund AIDS research if it’ll get rid of all or 99% of them. Got a kid to donate? Comeon now give
generously.

Mike Huckabee once advocated isolating AIDS patients from the general public, opposed increased federal funding in the search for a cure and said homosexuality could ``pose a dangerous public health risk.''

I'm not a supporter of Huckabee, but if the World had listened to him then, we would only be reading about AIDs in history books!

aids is the first disease with civil rights attached to it.

Drudge has this as his Big Red Headline. I guess it’s supposed to shock everybody by how horrible that would have been.

It doesn’t work on me. The world lost so many wonderful people who would have been alive today had we treated AIDS like any other communicable epidemic. I’d like to be listening to Freddy Mercury’s new songs, etc. I agree with the Huckster on this one.

Earlier this week El Rushbo stated that the lamestream media was trying to build Huckabee up only to tear him down because they loathe his religious principles. Once the polling data showed they had succeeded in boosting his ratings the attacks would begin.

Rush is right again.

The trashing has started. Leftists who don’t have a live have dug into records and found something to hang Huckabee on. They will never tell you that aids patients in Cuba are locked away!

Well, you FINALLY found an area where I agree with Huckabee. Too little/too late, but...

And, there are members here that think the MSM is giving Huckabee a free pass? The media is digging up everything it can about him.

Someone really wants him to get elected.

It looks like Fred’s strategy of “take it easy and wait for everyone else in front of me to do something retarded” is paying dividends.

Once Huck’s out of the way he’s home free.

I’m not a Huckabee guy-

I think this ultimately helps him - although few will admit it.

AIDS and HIV were treated with political correctness and not handled as a dangerous disease in the 1980s and early 90s. Huckabee was right then.

If HIV/AIDS had been treated with the same caution and care as TB was in the 1930s and 40s, many thousands of people would still be alive today.

Ws were told (from the CDC, no less) not to wear gloves or masks because it made the patients feel ‘isolated’. I remember a nurse friend of mine was fired for refusing to treat an AIDS patient unless she could use mask and gloves. She was pregnant at the time.

She sued and won her job back and a nice settlement.
