The Huckster’s not nearly smart enough or ethical enough to be my president.
...major ethics and corruption credibility gap. But O’Reilly give him some softballs tonight.
What ethical issue are you referring to?
Taking a look at your posts it is clear you dont like Christains or Mike.
That said If you wish to worship at the alter of gossip and the msm you are welcome to do that too.
As Oreilly said just now those that think Mike should drop out the can shove it. Have fun.

“The longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: that God governs the affairs of man [Romans 8:28]. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice [Matthew 10:29], is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured in the Sacred Writings that except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it [Psalms 127:1]. I firmly believe this. I also believe that, without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel [Genesis 11:1-9].”
—Benjamin Franklin, arguing the need for prayer at the Constitutional Convention
“Taking a look at your posts it is clear you dont like Christains or Mike.”
Actually I’m very Christian but I don’t like Mike...he ispart of the redefining of evangelical movement that is damaging politics and the gospel of Christ. Here is an excerpt from pastor Paul Edwards.
“”What’s really happening here is an attempt by the Left to define evangelicalism down by moving it away from its emphasis on the power of the gospel to change lives. The church’s ability to affect social and cultural change, bringing relief to the poor and suffering, is rooted first and foremost in its commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ, and what the gospel says about the condition of man in sin which results in the symptoms of poverty and disease.
The Religious Left invalidates the conservative evangelical commitment to humanitarian relief because we are achieving our ends in the name of Jesus Christ through the gospel, without the assistance of government funding. The fundamental tenant of modern liberalism is that a government program funded by redistributed wealth is the preferred method of humanitarian relief rather than what the church is accomplishing by faith through compassionate hearts.
The new voices of the Religious Left – Rick Warren, Joel Hunter, Tony Campolo, Jim Wallis, et al – are defining down what it means to be an evangelical by making the symptoms of man’s sin (poverty, disease, etc.) a priority rather than addressing the cause of those symptoms (sin) and the cure found in the gospel of Jesus Christ.””
“”””””Here is an excerpt from pastor Paul Edwards.”””””
Here again you are going on what others tell you.
Feel FRee to listen to what Mike hase to say
“The new voices of the Religious Left – Rick Warren, Joel Hunter, Tony Campolo, Jim Wallis, et al – are defining down what it means to be an evangelical by making the symptoms of man’s sin (poverty, disease, etc.) a priority rather than addressing the cause of those symptoms (sin) and the cure found in the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
Paul Edwards is right about the religious left, but Governor Huckabee isn’t part of that movement. You’ve apparently been brain-Rushed.
Here’s a link to Governor Huckabee’s speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday morning. It’s a half hour long. The entertaining stuff is at the beginning. The most serious part starts at about 25:30.

But can you imagine just how many people have come to Jesus (praises) through these and many more people? I think Jesus would forgive...
“But can you imagine just how many people have come to Jesus (praises) through these and many more people? I think Jesus would forgive...”
The religious left definitely needs forgiveness, but you’re changing the subject. Governor Huckabee isn’t one of them.
I am aware of that. And I firmly am on Mikes side.
And wish people would just listen to what he has to say. It doesnt take any more time than it does to go find what the msm has to say.

You miss the point. The point is that big government evangelicals are not conservative and are going leftist by buying into the secular case of government being the answer. The leftward lurch also dilutes the message of the gospel versus social theology.

Get a grip Your still repeating what you have been told.
Get to know Mike better and you probably will change your mind.I dont think you have taken the time to listen to Mike.
I will be sure to see the interview tonight at 11:00. I went from Hunter to Fred to Romney and voted for Romney here in Florida. If I were voting now, I would vote for Huckabee over McCain any day. I do not want Huckabee to drop out just in case he is able to keep McCain from getting the nomination. Would love to have a brokered convention where perhaps the delegates are free to nominate someone other than McCain. If McCain ends up being the nominee I will vote for him, but I do not believe he would win in November after the MSM gets through with him.
I’m familiar with his record of big government spending and tax increases - as well as his support for illegal immigrants and quota college grants for said illegal students.
He’s a big government guy. Right on Life and wrong on a menu of liberal positions.
Somehow Mike needs to get his word out and take on the dems whether or not he takes this race now I feel he would cut BHO or HRC to peices He has the best way of cutting to the issues when he is given a chance to speak.
