And there seems to be a pattern where you pick out one thing in my posts and ignore the rest, like whether, according to your reasoning, should get over the Mormon comment?

But you tell me to “get over it,” when the only reason that I brought it up was because you brought up the religion issue. Should you get over the “Mormon comment”?

Are you serious?

Of course no sensible Republican really cares what they say!

Get. Over. It.

Especially if you’re going to defend “Jesus Juice” Huckabee.

But I do not hear anyone say anything how the media relentlessly harped on the fact that he was a former Baptist minister. Every single article that came out during the primary in some fashion said the following: “Mike Huckabee, former Southern Baptist minister, said….” There was little mention that he was a 10.5 year governor of Arkansas. It was an obvious attempt to try to paint Huckabee as a theocratic ruler. But no one seemed to notice, or care.

OH I have deemed you personally no longer worth my time however if you choose to respond I will feel it necessary to SMACK you again!

And as for Beck. I do not dislike him. A lot of what he says I agree with. Some I do not. What I was saying is that Beck preaches to the choir, while Huckabee preaches (pardon the pun) to those who really need it. Everyone has their role.

The Huckster is all talk, no walk and a coward in the face of abusing power when he gets it;

it just pains me to see the slurs used against us by the left used by our own when going after someone like Huckabee…he’s a Christian and a Minister before he got into politics and it just burns my britches to have that thrown out as a reason to oppose him when there is pleanty to oppose him on…

in fact…I’m on the hunt now because in my mind he’s proving himself to be an unprincipled ass in this instance and I don’t see a reason to bring his Christianity into it…as I see it…his profession of pro-life orthodoxy coupled with his refusal to acknowledge it in this instance as a reason to oppose Scazoffava makes him a hypocrite and an opportunist of the highest order and I plan to be a dog on a bone with him from now on!

I hope I didn’t offend anyone with this observation.

what I object to however is the painting of everything Huckabee has done as being what you can expect from all Christians…

Ive gone from being a Huckabee Supporter as the lesser of a bunch of evils…to being opposed to him as an apologist to Jeremiah Wright…to having second thoughts and keeping an open mind because of his being the single prominent Republican out there opposing the bailouts to now seeing him as a Hypocrite and an opportuinist because he is playing both ends against the middle in a race where the difference between the candidates couldn’t be more stark where Abortion and traditional marriage are concerned…(this is the area where I have agreed with him most by the way)…so…he’s climbed out on a limb and sawed it off with me…but his/my faith has nothing to do with it…

I am really sorry for your offense at my post, and what you believe to be nothing more than sterotyping. My point was that Huckabee has conveniently used his christian background, when it was most convenient to him to do so. He actively sought the support of all Christans, and, actually made some unbecoming remarks about Romney’s Mormonism. As to tying him to the amnesty debate, he was for it, before he was against it, and, he called those that were anti-amnesty “race baiters” and “inflamatory.” When asked about his past positions, as Gov. concerning illegal immigration, he always gives the standard pat christian answer- which equates to “we are all God’s children” and etc. I am very well aware that not all christians believe we should vote for amnesty, after all I am one. Yes, we are all God’s children, and, for that reason, we should be teaching a man to fish, rather than providing him with one fish for today.

I should NOT have used the expression the “religious right”, quite frankly because what I used to think of as the christian right, those that were strongly pro-life, and believed in traditional marriage, have apparently now expanded to those that also believe in Global Warming, and that there should be open boarders.

But, I don’t think I have Huckabee pegged wrongly, I believe he will go along with the issues I mentioned above, because he will say that it is the right thing to do, and, he may very well believe that. Hard to tell when he has walked back his previous positions.

Sorry if my comments offend you Ace, that really does make me sad.
