ANN COULTER: LIBERALS SING 'HUCKELUJAH'

LIBERALS SING 'HUCKELUJAH' by Ann Coulter December 26, 2007

All I want for Christmas is for Christians to listen to what Mike Huckabee says, rather than what the media say about him. The mainstream media keep flogging Huckabee for being a Christian, apparently unaware that this "God" fellow is testing through the roof in focus groups.

Huckabee is a "compassionate conservative" only in the sense that calling him a conservative is being compassionate.

He responded to my column last week -- pointing out that he is on record supporting the Supreme Court's sodomy-is-a-constitutional-right decision -- by saying that he was relying on the word of a caller to his radio show and didn't know the details of the case. Ironically, that's how most people feel about sodomy: They support it until they hear the details.

First, I'd pay a lot of money to hear how a court opinion finding that sodomy is a constitutional right could be made to sound reasonable. But the caller had the right response when Huckabee asked him, "What's your favorite radio station?" So he seemed like a reliable source.

Second, Huckabee's statement that he agreed with the court's sodomy ruling was made one week after the decision. According to Nexis, in that one week, the sodomy decision had been the cover story on every newspaper in the country, including The New York Times. It was the talk of all the Sunday news programs. It had been denounced by every conservative and Christian group in America -- as well as other random groups of sane individuals having no conservative inclinations whatsoever.

The highest court in the land had found sodomy was a constitutional right! That sort of thing tends to make news. (I was going to say the sodomy ruling got publicity up the wazoo, but this is, after all, Christmas week.)

So this little stretch-marked cornpone is either lying, has a closed head injury, is a complete ignoramus -- or all of the above.

Huckabee opposes school choice, earning him the coveted endorsement of the National Education Association of New Hampshire, which is like the sheriff being endorsed by the local whorehouse.

He is, however, in favor of school choice for kids in Mexico: They have the choice of going to school there or here. Huckabee promoted giving in-state tuition in Arkansas to illegal immigrants from Mexico -- but not to U.S. citizens from Ohio. "I don't believe you punish the children," he said, "for the crime and sins of the parents."

Since when is not offering someone lavish taxpayer-funded benefits a form of punishment? That's almost as crazy as a governor pardoning a known sex offender so he can go out and rape and kill.

Huckabee claims he's against punishing children for the crimes of their fathers in the case of illegal immigrants. But in the case of slavery, he believes the children of the children's children should be routinely punished for the crimes of their fathers.

Huckabee has said illegal immigration gives Americans a chance to make up for slavery. (I thought letting O.J. walk for murdering two people was payback for slavery.)

That’s interesting, except it wasn’t Mr. Mike who said that. It was someone else. And they were apparently wrong. You can listen to what the MSM and the NEA has to say about a candidate, or you can look at the candidate’s actual record.

Nor will I.

He’s no different than the Clinton’s. He’ll say ANYTHING he thinks will gain him a couple of votes.

NO thanks.

“You seem a bit obsessed with Ann’s appearance.”

Only because it detracts from her credibility. She is a walking incongruenty (sp?)

On the Loon list, Huckabee just went to the top.

LOL! The man is nuts. Whom has he hornswaggled into thinking he's a conservative or even a Republican? He'll be the Howard Dean of this election - done by New Hampshire.

In the Dem /Lib / MSM world, merely stating facts about someon’e’s record is an ad hominem attack!

Ann Coulter is a treasure and tremendous asset to conservatism. Is she a God to me? No, merely a goddess.

Indeed! Ann Coulter has more guts than any politician currently active on the national scene, and always, always backs up her statements with inarguable fact. Further, she never backs down from her statements. Some people are uncomfortable with that or think it makes her a hatemonger or simply a verbal bombthrower. But as someone once said, facts are stubborn things!

“Burka boy, your taking the fun out of fundamentalist Christianity.”

Well said from a closet mormon with 30 wives....probably most under 16.

As I understand it, they did not say that there was a constitutional right to engage in sodomy.

They pretty much said there was a constitutional right to engage in sodomy.

As per Wiki

The majority decision found that "the intimate, adult consensual conduct at issue here was part of the liberty protected by the substantive component of the Fourteenth Amendment's due process protections." Holding that "the Texas statute furthers no legitimate state interest which can justify its intrusion into the personal and private life of the individual," the court struck down the anti-sodomy law as unconstitutional. Kennedy's opinion crucially grounded the right of consenting adults to have sex on how intimate and personal the conduct was to those involved, not on the conduct being traditionally protected by society (as in Bowers), procreative (as in Eisenstadt and Roe), or conducted by married people (as in Griswold). This opened the door in theory to protection of a whole host of sexual activity between consenting adults not protected by other decisions. Kennedy was careful however not to extend the opinion to include governmental recognition of such relationships.

One other item! Is it Troll season? Why do I sense an infiltrator posted this article?

Because you are quite uninformed and posted before thinking.

Thanks though, my first "Troll" designation!

Veritas apparently means truth. So it would be Sole Truth.

The only one that has "truth"?

Veritas was also the goddess of truth, a daughter of Saturn and the mother of Virtue.

Why she hid in the bottom of a well is beyond me.

It's very interesting seeing someone touting Biblical truths and is named after a goddess from Roman mythology.

Actually I think the picture was posted to show in an exaggerated fashion how the one posted to would like to have Coulter dressed to not be tempted to lust after her and offer her money for sex.
