The man doesn''t believe in science. Who in the world, even in the media, would accuse him of being a liberal. He wants to replace our constitution with the bible. That''s as un-liberal as anything could be.

conservatives are criminals,

their religionist ilk in the christian community are nothing more than mindless sheep,

look at the last eight years of lieing evangelical filth in the white house, do you really want more of the same?????

The same Karl Rove who sold us the trustfunder from Texas is now trying to sell us the elderly liberal McCain.

There seems to be a corporate oil machine running the Republicans, and they snag votes waving bibles and crying over stem cells. They don''t care who the nominee is, Rove jumps into action and Rush pops another Oxycontin.

Same party, different clown.

There has been a revelation recently in the republican party. We have realized that our party leaders, national media celebrities, and pundits do not speak for us anymore. Huckabee winning despite the fat cats selling us Romney and Mccain is proof that we are capable of making our own choice for nominee. Goodbye Karl Rove (now a foxnews contributor),Foxnews, Sean Hannity, Rush, and Anne Coulter! You are not our voice anymore!

While American astronauts are working in space, this clown thinks he has half a chance of becoming President.

Think about it. A nation who put a man on the moon 40 years ago voting for some goon who believes the world is only 6000 years old.

Never heard of dinosaurs Mr. Huckabee? That''s odd, because you are one.

Once a Romney supporter and intrigued by Obama, I find it humorous that so many commentors need to use other people''s quotes to express themselves. Huckabee can run circles around your eloquence.

You''ll also note that none of this interview focused on religion. Stop being so afraid of something you obviously don''t understand.

As far as dropping out, the political process was designed by politicians, and Huckabee is playing by their rules. It''s what the democratic candidates are doing, so what is the difference? Kudos to them all for making this election a good example of what this country is based upon: free speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, and free choice. Hopefully whomever gets into office will keep this country free from tyranny, oppression, and assault by those who don''t have the same political freedoms we do.

LYNCHBURG, Va. -- Huckabee gave an eight-minute address to the Thomas Road Baptist Church Sunday, arguing that increased regulation comes from a lack of moral clarity.

%u2018When I hear today people say, %u2018Well all of you people that talk about morality just need to keep that separate because it has nothing to do with this country,%u2019 let me just remind us all that the day that we do not have personal responsibility in our own moral commitments, the day that we do not understand what it is right and what is wrong is the day that we then have to compensate with additional levels of government,%u2019 Huckabee said.

Former Oral Roberts University accountant alleges $1billion a year funneled through school

A former senior accountant at Oral Roberts University alleges that more than $1billion annually was inappropriately funneled through the evangelical school. Trent Huddleston claims in a lawsuit filed Thursday that he discovered an "unrestricted" account used to funnel "unusually large" sums of money through the university each month (which would exceed US$1billion on an annual basis) that was not used for any legitimate university purpose. University spokesman Jeremy Burton dismissed any wrongdoing, saying the allegations had "no basis in fact." John Tucker, an attorney for the university, said the petition appeared to be "grounded in fantasy." Huddleston, who was hired in 2006 and spent 15 months at the school, said he was discharged because school officials feared he would reveal that the account existed.

How funny is it watching all of the conservative elites race to %u201CMcCain-nedy%u201D for a seat at his Presidential table? First the GOP shoved liberal conservative H. Bush down our throats just for him to lose the White House. Then they shoved moderate constrictive W. Bush down our throats and he spent us into the poor house. Now they are shoving a liberal conservative down our throats again, John McCain, who must persuade the conservative base to fall in line for him for no reasons. What a Joke! The Republican Party will not receive another dime from me or my support. The conservative elites think their base is as liberal as them and McCain.

The liberal elites and conservative elites could not care less what their base thinks!
