He makes me want to vomit. He is so full of hate! It would be scary to have that man be apart of anything, he needs a lot of help to deal with all that negativity and hate. I am not gay, but to think of a world without my brother and his partner and all their friends that have brought so much to my life and my whole families life, I can’t imagine it!

How is Huckabee wanting to take “freedom” away from people who want homosexual marriage? First of all, they currently don’t have the right, so he isn’t taking anything away. Secondly, throughout history until quite recently in Europe, religion defines marriage, not the state. If the church refuses to grant a homosexual marriage, then it is no business of government to force them to. And if it DOES become an issue of government, it will be a constitutional amendment ratified by the PEOPLE, not the president.
And the “freedom of abortion.” People will always have the freedom of abortion, just as they have the freedom to murder people. We all have free will. Abortion is the murder of a human entity; whether it is fully developed or not is irrelevant. A human fetus has never become something other than human. It has human DNA, and more than that, its DNA is unlike any other human, living or not. Therefore, abortion is murder (the forced end of an unwilling human life) and must be made illegal.
I hope everyone can see the nonsensical logic of people who say things like Khana, who spout what they hear in mainstream press, don’t think for themselves, and seek to tear down candidates using misquotations and quotes taken out of context rather than seeking out the truth about issues.

This is disgusting! How dare he speak of “freedom” then turn around and say he wants to remove any hope of freedom for so many Americans! No gay marriage, no abortions? The USA is not a baptist church! People should have the RIGHT to live as they choose! Who the hell is he to parrot “freedom” and insist on robbing people of rights?
I desperately hope he doesn’t make it in. If he does… I’m going for Canadian citizenship. I’ll not stand for that hypocrisy.

To Huckabee or not to Huckabee? COUNT ME ALL IN! I have not been so excited about a political candidate since Ronald Reagan. The more I see of this guy the more I like. I hope very much that the whole country will choose to “Huckabee” for the next eight years!

Without a doubt, Huckabee is the most dishonest campaigner in either party. All the dirty tricks and lies that surrounded his campaigns in Arkansas have surfaced again in IA and SC.
Huckabee”s only honest statement so far is that he “must have done something right” to be re-elected twice in a state controlled by the democracts. The “something right” that he did was running his office like a Democrat and his campaigns like a Clinton.

Sorry, but as a long-time conservative, I will find myself voting for an Independent or Libertarian if Huckabee is their man. Fred was the best choice of all the weak choices.

Mike Huckabee is our choice to be President; and, we’ll support him over the other candidates. As with Reagan and Bush II, Huckabee is being significantly underestimated by everyone. This will become evident as each primary occurs. Huckabee’s support will continue to build, even as the major establishment media and political control groups try to “contain” him. Let’s hope he gets Secret Service protection as soon as possible. The “best” future of the United States lies with Mike Huckabee at this point in history.

The “big lobby” crowd in Washington is playing us for fools once again. Instead of dropping the fed funds rate from 4.25% to the market rate of 3% promptly, the rates are being held high so the politicians can benevolently bestow $600 rebates of our money to us. Of course, they will do this by taking on more than $600 per person in new debt.
Huck is a supporter of the FairTax, which would raise the same revenue as the current system without all the silly twists and turns.
Yes, he is a true conservative. He believes in the freedom of the people!

“Huckabee is an authentic conservative”
Well said.
The problem around here is that Phred has sent some of his trolls over here to try convince people not to vote for Huck. Ordinarily this is OK in a campaign, but this time Phred is only trying peal away a few votes from Huck here and there to help McCain to win SC.

Huckabee is an authentic conservative whose well-defined positions on the issues have never wavered. His misfortune is that he always speaks the truth, even when he knows it can be twisted and used against him. That’s because he’s placed his trust in Americans to see through the lies. Let’s not let him down.
