I don’t understand why some people love Huckabee. I know he is charming on his show, but it is a show, scripted in the general sense. He isn’t honest. My number one beef is that he lies when he doesn’t even need to. It’s a bad trait.
Also, while I love Christianity and what it does for true believers, I hate when people CLOAK themselves in it for ulterior purposes. Our religions are to be followed to make us better. To put us closer to the Golden Rule which is the best we can behave in this world. Huck doesn’t do that. He wears it to imply he is better than he is.
The worst example of him lying was the most ridiculous thing, and to me and my over educated brain, shows signs of emotional problems deep in the man. Remember his beautiful Christmas ad during the presidential campaign? He is there talking about putting politics aside and remembering the reason for the season, standing next to a beautiful Christmas tree, bookshelf behind him? GREAT IDEA from his campaign, and he did a great job in it.
As he steps closer to the tree (this is from memory so I might have something wrong), the post and one shelf of the bookcase glow in the shape of a cross. It’s so strong it isn’t subliminal, it just IS. I thought it was very pretty and probably meaningful to Christians out there. Well, when old Huck heard people talking about that “effect,” in a mean, mocking tone, he told people to simmer down, “ITS ONLY A BOOKSHELF.”
There were 99 good ways to respond to the talk about the cross, but that wasn’t one. He could have said how neat he thought that effect would be, that he planned it. Because it was neat, I’m sure, for Christians. And not offensive in the least to other religions because this was for CHRISTMAS, for gosh sakes. He could have said that it was indeed accidental, but when he saw it, he said, let’s keep it in! Cool! But he MOCKED PEOPLE who saw the obvious glowing cross.
He abused his post as governor to pardon or excuse his own son’s horrific crime of hours of torturing a stray puppy before hanging it to death, all in front of a group of campers. I believe the som was over 18.
He let out a murderer on clemency who moved to a new state and killed cops.
I won’t go on. I just hope that Huckabee fans are ok with the above.
Long post you made but i agree with you.
I hope Huckabee gets exterminated in Iowa.
Our religion is one of serving God and not Caesar.
When Christian politicans try to use the government for taking care of prisoners and the poor, they end up abusing them. It one of the well intended things paving the road to hell.
Huckster, in the name of Christian forgiveness, released violent Black prisoners. He was inspired by race bait. Those criminals, in turn, victimized innocent people. So how was he serving Christ to do this to people?
