Ann's ridicule of Huckabee's former obesity...
So this little stretch-marked cornpone...
... former fatty...
...the last former fatboy from Arkansas...
...has me thinking that Ann has seen one of the many blogs discussing gastric bypass. The term "former fatty" is used in an article quote from the Rolling Stone. "Stretched marked" possibly derives from the flabby Mike marathon photo. If Ann thought he lost his weight through marathon derring do she wouldn't ridicule him so, but if through gastric bypass then she'll give it to him unmercifully.
So, gold and pearls are out, as is fancy hair (broided or plaited). Doesn't say anything about miniskirts, though. I thought they'd be listed before "gold and pearls."

Tax-credited programs for Christian schooling
Q: I’m 17, and I’m the product of school choice. In the public schools I repeated the 7th grade three times, because of my deficiency in math & English. My mother then sent me to New Generation, a Christian school. After one year, my math improved 5 grade levels, and my English improved 3. Will you support school choice for other students like me with similar tax-credit programs?
HUCKABEE: Yes.
TANCREDO: Yes.
COX: Yes.
BROWNBACK: Yes.
PAUL: Yes.
HUNTER: Yes.
KEYES: Yes.

Many conservatives don’t support vouchers for parents, preferring tax credits. I.e., they believe vouchers are more “statist.”
So, it is your position that Governor Huckabee was asked if he supports vouchers for education choice by the NEA and he said "absolutely no way." And they were like, "Yay. We like you." But really, he's for choice, just against vouchers, but for tax credits.
Do you find that troubling? I'm guessing no.
1. I doubt he said, "No way."
2. Some of the most conservative of conservative activists around are against vouchers in favor of tax credits, so not "troubling." Me, I'm more of a pragmatist on it.
Wow, there sure is a rush to throw mud on Huckabee, but so many are so forgiving of Thompson's Stephen A. Douglas type hedging on our fundamental Right to Life and on the very definition of our most basic social contract of marriage.
Ann has said she supports Romney....she likes Hunter but realizes he isn’t moving.
I will not support Huckabee if he wins the nomination.
SAME HERE.
My G*d, the man didn't actually say that, did he...?
That one statement is all I need to know about him.
I don't find a support of tax credits over vouchers. But to pretend that Huckabee was completely honest with the NEA is laughable. The fact that you're willing to spin it away makes your criticism of another candidate's supposed waffling almost comical.
Burka boy, your taking the fun out of fundamentalist Christianity.
I'm sure glad you've got all the answers - no doubt based on biblical cherry picking. However, you're beginning to remind me of the sexually insecure and hung up Islamists. Good luck with your therapy.
I don't care whether or not Huckabee let the NEA of all groups in on everything in his heart and mind.

You seem a bit obsessed with Ann's appearance.
Did a leggy blond once steal a boyfriend from you or something?

In her most recent book ("If Democrats had any brains, they'ld be Republicans"), she has an entire chapter filled with quotes of people saying "this time Ann has gone TOO far" or words to that effect. Literally pages of that.
May St. Ann's name be shouted, praised and glorified now and for a thousand generations.

Thanks for the mention of Mike Huckabees weight loss scam .LOL!
I should have known that you were a FReeper!
Sorry for not pinging you to my post from your blog.Your original 5,000-word analysis is a MASTERPIECE!
I particularly liked THIS graph: [You caught the Huckster "red" handed!]
So this little stretch-marked cornpone is either lying, has a closed head injury, is a complete ignoramus -- or all of the above.
Zot!
