Interesting. Not a fan at all of Hagee.

[doc1019]

Hagee might be a great preacher, but I would rather vote according to the candidates history, voting record and current stance or world events.

[Responsibility2nd]

At least it’s genuine when Pastor Mike speaks at a Church.

OTOH, when Hillary steps inside a Church to speak....

Total hypocrisy.

[Eccl 10:2]

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: “There’s 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 they’re 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?

[TexasCajun]

I'm a Hagee fan.

Rush has some good policy questions for "The Christian" candidate.

Answers I'm looking forward to hear.

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.

[gpapa]

Hagee is an anti-Catholic bigot.

[epow]

He’s cast aspersions on another candidate’s 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.

HUCKABEE = The Anti-REAGAN

[SeaHawkFan]

I’m not a fan of Hagee and would not attend his church. That said, he does have a lot of followers and it certainly will not hurt Huckabee to speak at his church. I doubt that Huckabee agrees with much of Hagee’s theology, and I would not hold it against Huckabee if he speaks there.

Huckabee is about my 3-4 choice, but no one can question his ability to bring out the evangelical vote in numbers far surpassing any previous election.

[Tolkien]

Hagee does not believe that Jesus is the Messiah so lets cut the cr*p.

Huckster will never receive my vote!!

[Gurn]

John Hagee hasn’t said anything about the Catholic Church that isn’t true. Kathy Lopez can whine about “tone” all she wants, but anyone who reads objective history on the subject knows that Hitler’s blueprint came from the Papists.

Obama can do it and Huckabee can’t?

[Just mythoughts]

What do all denominations have in common.... pass that plate. What drew me to conservatism was the idea that people are responsible for their own decisions. What turns me OFFFFF is any candidate using their faith (themselves) to make their heaven on this earth via their means and methods of either by force or legislating ‘guilt’ to strip clean bare the pockets of one’s own labor.

This modern era has allowed the two year old mentality to be elevated as the higher thinking, making and giving government, (which initially was by design to be the people) the god. Provider of all things and the legislator of sharing the misery factor.

My introduction to conservatism was ‘LAW & ORDER’, yet even through Republicanism that has been diluted to elevate a supposed pass the plate compassion to be above the LAW. There has been such a blending of liberalism and Republicanism, conservatism is becoming a thing of memory.

[sockmonkey]

I’m no Hagee fan either. I have listened to his Church services on the radio. He told an anti-Catholic Pope joke, and preached a sermon on prosperity, basically saying that he was rich because God loved him more than he loves others. Yuck. I turned the radio off.

San Antonio has several mega-churches, but Hagee is the only one who really rubs me the wrong way.

I am just a sinner saved by grace!!! I just wonder if it`s a very good witness for a preacher to be obese?
