It just takes my breath away to see the good-hearted rubes filling the big tent, eyes as wide as saucers, as a slick Elmer Gantry preaches lies from a crooked heart.

It just takes my breath away to see the good-hearted rubes filling the big tent, eyes as wide as saucers, as a slick Elmer Gantry preaches lies from a crooked heart.

But they are good hearted people, and they are also in the "Big Tent" of the GOP.

It is a very delicate matter to show them the danger of Mike Huckabee and the hazard to Christianity of Huckabee's cyinical use of his Christian faith in his pursuit of power.

It is thrilling when a politician pretends to respect and value the things you respect and value. But you must be very careful to make sure you are not being taken advatage of. This business of the Christmas card ad reveals to me that Huckabee is taking advantage of Christians in a shameless way, and does not really respect them or value the things they value.

Now we have to explain this to our FRiends in a way that does not alienate them, which is a prickly business, at best.

You know. I feel another suspension coming on....
Somehow ^%$#^%$#564 @#$@$%#@#$ %$%^#45 %$353 ###$@###$ just doesn’t sufficiently express oneself....

I’m signing off and headed to Eden Prairie, MN to spend Christmas with my son’s wonderful family......before I get banned for life....

Merry Christmas partner — and don’t do anything serious until I get back....
