Thanks for speaking for me, too. Huck is a huckster and not to be trusted. I don’t have the slightest idea of how he would govern. He’s been all over the map. First he says one thing and then another. I see more consistency in Rush and Hannity than Huck.
Wasn’t one of the main reasons Jesus Christ was crucified was that he opposed the powers to be with free speech??
Most liberals hate the Bible and also look for any opportunity to attack those who believe the Bible.
By the way, welcome to Free Republic, I see you joined three days ago.
[The effort to discredit them is part of the effort to spread discord among conservatives in general.]
The effort to discredit them is an effort of liberals and moderate rinos who agree on McCain and hate conservatism in general. We should not lie to ourselves, conservatives must leave the republican party as they are leaving conservatism for liberalism and the effort of so many to make the liberal rinos conservatives will fail.
We demand truth in advertising. No need to gloss over a man that have history with pampering with the Constitution and loves with working with liberals over conservative principles.
It’s the truth about McCain’s record that has many doubting he deserves the job.
[What church is Hucakabee a Pastor of?]
He is part of the Southern Baptists, a denomination that is departing from the word of God as truth to the new age religious Christianity, you know, love is the answer, why cant we all get along, government is the new way to bring in their utopian ideology, etc. And Huckabee, like Jimmy Carter and Al Gore, is one of the liberal members of the southern baptists who fought to liberize the denomination into the new age good works save movement, without the blood of Jesus.
God would never listen to crappy AM radio.
I think Mike latches on to the policy or quip that gets a good response today. But he doesn’t really care about policy. Policy is just one way to get people to come together and rally around him.
Some politicians play to people’s resentments and perceived slights. Ethnic politicians often do that. I think Huckabee does that with evangelical Christians. Their desire to elect one of their own to the presidency reminds me of a quarterback throwing a long ball, “Hail Mary,” pass. Let’s get a big score in one play!
The atheist left have succeeded in marginalizing religion in their own circles and beyond. I liked Romney’s speech on religion which was for ALL Americans, even those in an intellectual left/liberal/atheist bubble. He communicated that religion and liberty are inseparable, over the long term. He was very presidential, and it was easy to see this message as coming from the President of the United States. I think his approach to elevating religion is better than Huckabee’s approach which merely speaks to his flock through identity politics.
We don't like the Huckster because he's a liberal at heart, so we must hate Jesus too...
Nothing about that strikes you as off just a bit?
At 23, Huckabee was a staffer for James Robison, a television evangelist. Robison commented, "His convictions shape his character and his character will shape his policies. His whole life has been shaped by moral absolutes."
Huckabee has stated, "Politics are totally directed by worldview. That's why when people say, 'We ought to separate politics from religion,' I say to separate the two is absolutely impossible".
Huckabee believes in Biblical inerrancy. Prior to his political career, Huckabee was pastor at in Beech Street Baptist Church Texarkana from 1980-1986 and then Immanuel Baptist Church in Pine Bluff, Arkansas from 1986-1992. In both Texarkana and Pine Bluff Huckabee started 24-hour television stations "where he produced documentaries and hosted a program called Positive Alternatives."
This guy should go back to preaching to the sheeple.

Rev. Celeste is confusing religion with politics. Huckabee is a moderate and no conservative is morally obligated to vote for him just because he is a good Christian. Limbaugh and Hannity’s opposition to Huckabee is based on his ideology not on his religious identity. Huckabee,of course, is campaigning on his religious identity in order to get the evangelical vote. However, that is not reason enough for those of us who are conservative but who are not evangelical to vote for him.
Over the past two weeks, I have flushed Rush. During early primary season, he defaulted his leadership responsibility with his cagey half-as$ed support of nobody and everybody.
Now we are stuck with McCain unless he dies of natural causes first. We no longer need political insight and all of this is no longer funny. Rush, your blinding brilliance needs a holiday.
And those who serve the Lord hate you because you're an ass.
Those who serve the Lord shouldn't hate, but we're not perfect, so when such an ass as this pastor comes along, when there is that temptation to hate that we'd rather not be led into.
And there it is. That is a distinctly unbiblical stance that Huckabee has. No where in the gospel does it say that forcibly taking something away from one person, and giving it to another is ok. If Christians are going to use Huckabee's evangelical credentials as a reason to back him, then they need to be honest about his policies.
Time for the huckster to set up HUCKSTERVILLE in Guyana and take his mindless followers with him.
Pastor Bob is a nut job
I am glad I don’t choose my Presidents by what religion they profess. Key word: PROFESS. There is very little evidence that Huckleberry is the wonderfully moral man he claims to be. And preaching is not the most important qualification for a President anyway.
TURN YOUR RADIO ON
