Interesting. Not a fan at all of Hagee.
To: fkabuckeyesrule
Hagee might be a great preacher, but I would rather vote according to the candidates history, voting record and current stance or world events.

At least it’s genuine when Pastor Mike speaks at a Church.
OTOH, when Hillary steps inside a Church to speak....
Total hypocrisy.

If someone like Bloomberg runs third party, the evangelicals are going to be a HUGE force.
Just stating fact.

"Huckabee told Meredith Vieira earlier this week: Theres a sense in which all these years the evangelicals have been treated very kindly by the Republican party. They wanted us to be a part of it, and then one day, one of us actually runs and they say, Oh, my gosh! Now theyre serious." I don't know about every evangelical, but I certainly thought of George Bush as being "one of us". And I don't remember the party being put off by that.
In fact, I haven't seen the party being put off by Huckabee being "one of us". I see them being put off by his attacks on the President, and his insistance that he's the only real pick for evangelicals, simply BECAUSE he is one.
I'd prefer a strong christian, or at least a man of faith who practices their faith, but I don't pick my candidate simply because they belong to my church, or have the same hair color I do either.

Not a fan at all of Hagee. I am...mostly. He tells it like it is on many cultural issues without remorse
Preachers in the race really brings out the anti-Christians and in particular the Anti-Prods round here
and no....I don't like Huckster and shame on him for not standing up to his cross in the as thingie
he shoulda said...damn straight that's a cross folks....so what?

I'm a Hagee fan.
Rush has some good policy questions for "The Christian" candidate.
Answers I'm looking forward to hear.
To: fkabuckeyesrule
With all due respect to Hagee and his congregation (who are, of course, entitled to believe and say as they choose), Mike Huckabee should cancel his Sunday plans with Hagee. It can be his Christmas present to his party to hold it together instead of continuing to tear it apart.So, since all Fundamentalist Protestant churches are by definition "anti-Catholic" and anti-ecumenical, I suppose NR now is going to say that speaking at any of them should disqualify a candidate? (And btw, I'm not for Huckabee.)
I can't help but wonder if the real reason for this blow-up isn't Hagee's long history of strong theological support for Israel.

Hagee is an anti-Catholic bigot.

Hes cast aspersions on another candidates religion.When? Where? I must have missed that. Either I missed Huckster "casting aspersions" or someone is not being entirely truthful.
I'm not backing the Huck because he's too liberal or moderate to suit me on many issues like immigration and taxes, but columnists shouldn't fib about his campaign speeches or anyone else's. Maybe he did "cast aspersions" on another candidate's religion, but if he did I haven't heard anything about it until now.

I’m with you — Hagee is a straight shooter and spot-on when speaking about cultural issues. He’s also one of the very few in his position who speaks the truth about Islam without fear. ...and as you mentioned, without remorse.
Wish there were more like him.

I totally agree with you and I would add, he’s spot on about Israel as well.

I may be misunderstanding his position, so someone correct me if I’m wrong... but hasn’t Hagee said that Jesus is not the Messiah? Again, not making an accusation, I just want that to be clarified.

I suppose you would say that of anyone who criticized the Catholic Church. The fact is that it did make lots of mistakes and screw ups that they are paying for and will be paying for in the future. I have nothing against Catholics but hiding your head in the sand is ludicrous also.

Yeah, isn’t Hagee the one who said that Jesus never claimed to be the Messiah.... I believe I read that. I’d be curious if that’s indeed true.
