The Huckabee Problem

I was a member at his church in Texarkana, and he is a personal friend of our families. He is a man of God and we need someone in the Presidential office that will pray for our Nation and believe "In God we trust".
I will stand behind him along with many others.............

It isn't entirely fair to pin the end result of the GOP's decades-long catering to the religious right squarely on Huckabee. Ironically, one of the main reasons that he is getting so much flak for his fundamentalist views is because he's honest about it. That, and it's hard to hide, sure as he might, the fact that he was a pastor. However, let us not forget that his more prominent brother-in-arms, mister Mitt Romney also has a fundamentalist Mormon base. The only difference is he has had the "advantage" of hiding it by sidestepping all questions about it. Romney too is the result of the same breeding program spoken about here. Mind you I don't care for either of the two as my president, but one has to at least respect the one of the two who is more honest about their stances on things, even if you do disagree with them entirely.

"For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap", couldn't have said that better myself.

Someone needs to look into why Huckabee ordered all Arkansas state owned computers and their files destroyed before he left office. Thier replacement cost the tax payers of that state millions. Rumors also aboud that his weight loss was not totally from a change in lifestyle, but a hushed gastro bypass operation. If those rumors are true, he has lied to the public. Medical records need to be examined. And as for family values, one need only look at the trouble that his sons have been involved in over the past few years. The apple never falls far from the tree.

There is a lot to be concerned about where Huckabee is concerned. Someone should look into his dictate to destroy all state computers and their files before he left office. What was he afraid would be found? There are also reports that his dramatic weight loss involved more than just a change in lifestyle. Rumors abound that he underwent gastro bypass surgery. If that is true, he has out and out lied. I think that it's also important to look at his family and the trouble that his kids have been involved in. No great family values there, and the apple never falls far from the tree.

I've got to say, after reading a 100 or so responses, seems like voting Ron Paul is the answer we're all looking for.

I've got to say, after few about a hundred comments full of concerns either direction, seems like Ron Paul is the answer we're looking for.

They are wary of him because they thinkl he may have his religion for real. They will use religion,ie...'family values', 'God hates gays' etc.... as long as they know its a sham. , like the compassionate conservative criminal we have in office

The GOP is very uneasy about this guy (and I'm not a fan) because they see him maybe taking his religon seriously. They don't mind religion being used, like in "family values" and "God hates gays" as long as they know it is all a sham, like the religion used by this compassionate conservative criminal now in office.

Someone on SearchingMuslim.com said that Aboma is against USA Muslim. Is he?

Should Muslim stay togehter with Christian or away from Christian in USA . Anyway there are some pure online Muslim communities, such as SearchingMuslim.com . It's good for our Muslim people in USA.

Obviously you don't know how to use YouTube and have not taken the time to visit Huckabee's website. There is a video "Pastors and Pews" where Huckabee is speaking to a pastorial convention. Obviously you didn't watch the debate and haven't turned on any of the Huckabee interviews. Honestly this article says nothing, most of the nothing not even true. Its poorly written and barely makes sense. Where did you learn to organize ideas to actually express an idea. I can't believe Newsweek would publish the article that says nothing, goes no where and takes a page to say what could have been said in three sentences. This is absurd.

I listened carefully to Huckabe's response on the creation question. I heard a position that an evolutionist can accept--if the evolutionist is a purist in the empirical sense. If however the evolutionist is an evolutionist from a religious, faith-based-athiestuc perspective, one that precludes the disposition of the existence of God, then Huckaby's response becomes problematic. But then of course, a science isn't supposed to have preconclusions, prejudice or presuppositions that are empirically falsifiable right?.

Considerable debate on this question by evolutionary theists exist. Primarily the critque of the issue boils down to mechanism versus purpose. The biblical text is about purpose, the evolutionary theory is about process. They do not have to be mutually untenable. Huckaby's response fair and honest, and ultimately he concedes that he was never a witness to "creation's" modus. This is an important place that offers reconcilliation to the polemic that is the current boil on the face of science in America. It would be nice if someone had eyes to see it that way who wrote from the neo-podium of Newsweek's America.
