Supplicant Republicans just can''t live without there hypocritical Republicant politicians. It doesn''t matter that Huckabee is a known liar, as long as he bows to the evangelicals light-eyed, light-haired and fair-skinned Germanic Jesus he is A-OK. As a lousy one-term Arkansas governor, Huckabee is just more of George Bush. Even the Republicans I know do not want more seeing America dragged down.

CoolProphet , leave it to a Ron Paul supporter to post his rant on an article about another candidate!

I have read a number of polls by various organizations, none show Ron Paul with more than about 9% support in Iowa or New Hampshire. Mentioning how many people show up at ''meet ups'' or how much money was raised via the internet don''t mean much! After all, in 2004 Howard Dean set all kinds of internet fund raising records, and had large attendance at ''meet ups'' and thousands of volunteers, and you saw how quickly his campaign ''bit the dust'' after failure in Iowa! Mark my words "Ron Paul is not going to win a a single primary or caucus! "

Here''s Huckabee''s Christmas present. Mormon Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley was involved in bisexual parties with young boys and prostitutes in the 1970s, I have three affidavits, a former church security employee letter, a deathbed testimony, and other evidence to back that up. Merry Christmas, Huckabee!

First of all, Huckabee is a world class globalist CFR member. Oop''s, he''s not telling anyone that though. Is

all, I read Huckabee dosen''t even have a THEOLOGICAL DEGREE....HUCKSTER IS A BIG FAT LIAR!!!!!!

CBS NEWS CAUGHT CONDUCTING RIGGED POLLS
Most people can see right through the prejudice CBS News obviously has towards Ron Paul. In the few times they''ve covered him at all, I''m suprised they didn''t have one of their graphics artists Photoshop some devil horns on top of his head in that worst ever photograph they always use of him. CBS obviously thinks that if they pretend Paul isn''t a top-tier GOP candidate, then their readers and viewers will eventually think so too. Whenever they are forced to do a story on Paul, because some other mainstream source is covering him for some reason, the fact that their editors work overtime to slant their stories in such a way as to either marginalize his accomplishment, or present Paul in the most negative light possible, is obvious to anyone with a modicum of intelligence. "What about their polls?," you ask? As far as the CBS News poll is concerned, they don''t even include Paul on the list of GOP candidates which pollees can choose from, and then afterwards, report to you that Paul doesn''t even rank in their final tally. Ron Paul is getting major grass roots support nationwide. He has over 80,221 meetup group members in 1,289 Groups from 999 cities nationwide, with another 7,678 people more folks just waiting to hear when a new meetup group will start-up near them. He''s won ALL of the viewer phone-in polls in ALL of the GOP debates he''s been in, and has raised more money ($6 million) in one day than any other presidential candidate ever

Notice how he tried to paint Hucksterbee as an outsider that the Establishment doesn''''t like...w..........Posted by Prinzowhales at 02:15 PM : Dec 21, 2007


Actually he is an outsider there is no doubt that the republican puppet masters DO NOT want Huckabee as the nominee they don%u2019t have a good bone in their bodies and more than half don%u2019t even believe in Christ if that is meaningful to you. They want a sycophant they can puppet to subvert the effectiveness of the government and keep our treasury open, competent regulators away for them, and free reign to corrupt our financial systems all the while raiding our Treasury under the false pretense of made up Threats.

The swifties are coming never fear, and the trick will be to keep the poodles in line while rejecting their hand picked messiah.

It dosent matter anyway the American People are going to run every subversive obstuctionst elected Republican out of office that they can, just like in 06, if places like Alaska protect their crooks and don%u2019t hold them accountable nothing the rest of us can do except give the Dems more margin to crush bridges and ferrys to no where and outrageous road projects slipped into bills after they have been voted on. The fools really believe we will hold the Dems accountable for there Subversion obstruction of our government and the Peoples interest this year and that is WRONG.

As a more-or-less agnostic, politically independent voter, my view on Huckabee is basically neutral. Conservative presidents are the rule rather than the exception in this country. Religious ones equally so. Huck''s just carrying on tradition. No big deal. I''m still voting democratic at this time, though. The last Republican sucked big time.

"Ed Rollins: Huckabee Will Win Iowa. Says victory will be inevitable after Gov. Huckabee successfully parts the Des Moines river from a top the highway US235 overpass the day before the caucus'' in a dramatic demonstration of who Jesus loves best."

Editor, CBS News:

Two very (intentionally?) misleading items in this story.

1. CBS ''And this comes after he said several years ago that it''s the responsibility of elected officials to %u201Ctake back this nation for Christ.%u201D'' Huckabee NEVER said that was the responsibility of elected officials. He was addressing an assembly of Southern Baptist officials. He was talking about the responsibility of THE CHURCH!!!

2. Your headline. Rollins never said Huckabee would win Iowa. He said, "we think we''re going to win Iowa." I''m sure Romney, and maybe McCain also "think" they''re going to win Iowa. But that wouldn''t have made such a sensationalistic headline, would it?

Please, do your homework (point 1), aim for a little journalistic integrity (point 2), and TELL THE TRUTH!

Nothing would be more refreshing to your readers, as they''re having a harder and harder time finding those qualities ANYWHERE in American journalism today.

"The reason a minority of republicans hate him is because he won''''t be bossed around by the fat cats on Wall Street. "--Posted by npborn

What! Huckleberry is going to convert to Communism?

Once Hucky gets away from the Holy Roller states, he may find that his blatant hanging of his campaign sign on the cross will backfire. Most normal human beings outside the midwest inbreeding belt don''t like tent revival snake oil salesmen all that much.

Very interesting. I''m not sure how someone can win a state when they are losing support in the polls. Of course, I guess when you continually lie like the Huckster has done, the facts don''t matter.

Just did a google search of some of the usernames making comments here...looks like RP supporters are coming out in droves. That explains why we have so many ''extreme'' comments.

Having a piece of dung like Ed Rollins in your corner is as bad as having Henry Kissinger endorse you...as he endorsed McCain.

Notice how he tried to paint Hucksterbee as an outsider that the Establishment doesn''t like...what a farce! He was involved in the election of mass murdress Christine Todd Whitman as governor of New Jersey...she is the vile creature who as head of the EPA did nothing to protect the first responders and clean up workers...and allowed people to return to the toxic work environment around the WTC. Rollins, by his own admission, gave black preachers in New Jersey "walking around money" to dampen the black turnout.

Now we have Rollins in Hucksterbee''s corner, trying to sell this maggot Hucksterbee as someone that the Establishment fears. It is so transparent...they must take the American people for idiots...if so, they are pretty much right on the money.

And for us non Republican voters we say thank you ED, and to the country and to the parties, Iowa going first needs to change their judgements and selection are extreme and do not represent any cross section of America this is the same crowd that picked Bush. I would prefer Ohio if I had a choice.

This will be at least be an election where bigotry and biases will constantly be before us and I am not sure that getting it out in the open is a bad thing, we may very well end up with a white male chubby Southern Baptist Minister, a Independent white male billionaire who is Jewish and a White Female Senator running, should drive the loon lonneir than usual I would guess.

Here''s an interesting tidbit: (from the Arkansas Times, "The tale of the tapes", 9/27/07)

"In early January 2007, as his tenure as governor ran out, Huckabee ordered his staff to electronically wipe and then crush the hard drives of almost 100 laptop and desktop computers in the governor''s office (soon after taking office, incoming governor Mike Beebe had to allocate $335,000 from his operating fund to buy new hard drives and computers to replace those crushed by his successor). At the time, Huckabee said that the decision to crush the hard drives was made in order to protect the privacy of those who had personal information on the drives. Critics, however, recalled that early in Huckabee''s term as governor, documents, e-mails and memos stored on hard drives just like the ones that were destroyed formed the basis of embarrassing stories about Huckabee, including a 1998 story in the Arkansas Times detailing how Huckabee and his family were using the $60,000-a-year Governor''s Mansion fund as their personal piggy bank. As revealed in documents provided to the Times by a former governor''s office employee, the Huckabee family had used the mansion fund %u2014 which was supposed to be used only for purchases related to official state business %u2014 to buy everything from pantyhose and dog houses to meals out and loaves of Velveeta cheese."

CultureChang points out, "That looks like Chuck Norris in the background."

Yes. Chuck has lost his mind and he is supporting Hucksterbee. Norris even made a TV commercial for him. Chuck can still kick your a$$ any day of the week, but his mind is gone.

The ads by that used car salesman, Mutt, may be misleading, but their main point is correct: Hucksterbee was a TERRIBLE governor and he is seriously disliked by the people of his state. See the Arkansas Times, for example, for the local perspective on Hucksterbee.
