Once again, it was not an "anti-Christian comment"

It most certainly was. If you can't see or or admit it, you've got a problem.

Remember...he lied about the theology degree. His record on illegals is identical to Dick Durbin's. And his rhetoric on those critical of illegal immigration has been positively leftist.

You are preaching to the choir here, pal. Again, I'm a born-again believer. Huckabee's stated religious beliefs are probably closer to mine than any other candidate. Having said that, I wouldn't consider voting for him to be the GOP nominee. Your noxious comment suggested that all you have to do is wave a cross in front of Christians and they'll blindly march off to the voting booth in lock step. I'm proof that you are WRONG, as are many other millions. In fact, how about you cite for me all of the big Christian groups that have endorsed Huckabee?

I also do not appreciate my original comment being removed. It was not abusive nor offensive to Christians and FR policies should not be abused themselves for politically partisan purposes.

I had no idea it was removed and had nothing to do with it. It was indeed offensive to me as a Christian. I don't think "FR policy was abused for political partisan purposes". I think YOU abused FR with your anti-Christian comment. Again, the comment was NOT offensive because you went after Huckabee - go for it all day. It was because you took a very cheap and ugly shot at Christians.

Look for Thompson to pull off a big surprise in Iowa on January 3.


“I’ve been duking it out for weeks here against all the nay-sayers, doomsters and those of little faith in the Fredster. Getting all worn out from it, by golly.

However, I’ll be revived after Iowa.....and I’ll be looking for all the boo-birds to sheepishly do some about-faces.

“No fire in the belly”, my ash!

Leni”


I actually was one of those naysayers. Once the MSM started to trash him then ignore him, I started paying more attention to Fred and the Fred Freepers.

I noticed also the MSM started to distance from Fred when he took strong stands on the major issues.

Being a Christian Social Conservative one gets used to the attacks. We always make good PC sport. Couple this with my support of Huckabee. Skys the limit.

“What is it about Fred that reminds you of Reagan. Not seeing it.”

I did not say Fred reminds me of Reagan. I said that I think Fred is the closest to Reagan of any of the candidates. It is Fred’s straighforward honesty and “telling it like it is”, and his being a real conservative that makes him like Reagan. I actually think that Fred is more conservative than Reagan was. :)

Real conservatives, Christian or otherwise, don't support liberals.

If you had to distill conservatism in one sentence what would it be?

I agree that Huckabee would be a bad candidate. But you characterized Christians as “retards.” Do you really believe that those who follow Christ are “retards.” If so, your perspective is exactly that of the MSM.

“Mike’s a nice enough fellow, can’t say ‘no’ to anybody. That’s why he’s against a fence on the border and against fences around our prisons.”

Well, we can say NO to Mike Huckabee!

I should just say "I'm not going to raise my hand". However, I might say, "Protection of individual rights and liberties while limiting the power of government".
