Well, Huckabee came pretty close, this is why I find him unpalatable. I hate the hypocracy of the Rats saying there is too much religion in politics — then rushing to Black churches to stir the faithful. I’m all for religion in the public square—as our shared religious values, not as sectarian appeals.
SPARTANBURG, S.C. — Republican Mike Huckabee spoke from the pulpit Sunday, not as a politician but as the preacher he used to be, delivering a sermon on how merely being good isn’t enough to get into heaven.
Huckabee is vying for support from the Christian conservatives who dominate the GOP in South Carolina, which on Saturday chooses a Republican presidential nominee. A former Baptist minister and Arkansas governor, Huckabee is competing for their votes with fellow southerner Fred Thompson.
As in Iowa, where Huckabee won the Jan. 3 caucuses, Huckabee is rousing pastors to marshal their flocks for him. He pitches himself as someone who not only shares their views against abortion and gay marriage but who actually comes from their ranks.
Is he a Reverend? If not, can we talk about specific policies concerning the war on terror and immigration? This feel good speech is nothing but a jerk off.
