“How does Thompson fail that and Huckabee pass that “Christian” test?”
Because Star Traveler hasn’t heard the word “Jesus” from Fred.
I would not presume to know another man’s thoughts on Jesus. Not Fred Thompson’s, and certainly not Mike Huckabee’s. However, seeing as how one has had quiet dignity on the matter and the other has shamelessly exploited his supposedly Christian credentials, I am more inclined to have confidence in Thompson.
