I DID see it on FOX. It disgusted me. It fueled my dislike of him. He’s phony and a hypocrite. Who would have a press conference to AIR THE AD he won’t AIR to the public so the PRESS can SEE it and PROMOTE it? He’s as bad as Hillery and her silly gender stuff.

I don’t doubt you.

This strikes me as yet another snake oil sales pitch.

According to you and another watcher on this thread, FOX DID SHOW this on their original presentation, so the whole thing is a lie on Huckabee’s part.

But he knew that a lot of conservatives are upset with Fox because it’s perfectly true that they have been less and less “fair and balanced” over the past few years.

So he takes a shot at him, and naive viewers take him at his word. He figures that by the time the truth comes out, the voting will be over and it will be “old news.”

The problem is, he keeps doing this kind of thing.

Evangelicals, admirably I think, give people the benefit of the doubt when they say they have seen the light and have been reborn and they belong to Jesus.

But if a man keeps preaching at you with that, and you discover he is a repeated liar, then you conclude that he is one of the false prophets, not a true one.

Also, it’s very true that you shouldn’t judge another person when it comes to salvation. But if he is running for president, then it is your OBLIGATION to judge whether or not he is a hypocrite and a liar. What happens to him when he goes to meet his Maker is God’s business, not ours. But if he uses preacher talk to run for office, then we have to make it our business—not whether he will be ultimately saved despite his sins, but whether he should be trusted in high public office.
