I freely admit, after his ad stunt, the cross stunt, and then reading about the atrocious behavior of his son regarding the cruelty to a dog, and Huckabee’s defense of it, I don’t know who turns me off more, him or McCain.

And don't forget this lovely stunt...”Don’t Mormons believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?” -- Mike Huckabee.

The best you can say about this statement is that he's just ignorant... and that's the best thing one can say.

I had completely forgotten about that. I guess freedom of religion only applies to what he would approve.

I shouldn't be so negative, I'm sure Huck has his positives, but I just don't see them.

The guy totally turns me off. I could talk myself into pulling the lever for McCain, but if The Huckster’s on the ticket, I doubt it.

Well, technically Huck's right. The Mormon's do or at least did teach that.

Mormon Ref on Satan and Jesus being brothers compiled by UTLM

"This doctrine was further explained in the June 1986 LDS magazine Ensign. The question was asked "How can Jesus and Lucifer be spirit brothers when their characters and purposes are so utterly opposed?" Jess L. Christensen, Institute of Religion director at Utah State University, Logan, Utah, responded:"

"On first hearing, the doctrine that Lucifer and our Lord, Jesus Christ, are brothers may seem surprising to some — especially to those unacquainted with latter-day revelations. But both the scriptures and the prophets affirm that Jesus Christ and Lucifer are indeed offspring of our Heavenly Father and, therefore, spirit brothers. Jesus Christ was with the Father from the beginning. Lucifer, too, was an angel who was in authority in the presence of God, a son of the morning. (See Isa. 14:12; D&C 76:25-27.) Both Jesus and Lucifer were strong leaders with great knowledge and influence. But as the Firstborn of the Father, Jesus was Lucifer's older brother. (See Col. 1:15; D&C 93:21.)"
