9. Oh, give the guy a break.
He has a right to believe in Jesus.
I just don't want Jesus crammed down my throat. (ooooh, sickening thought)

anyway, Huckabee was good for laughs and comedic relief.

11. I enjoy your posts PinkTiger, but are you aware that he stated outright that he wants to change the
Constitution? Those of us who believe in God are doing fine as things are, living alongside those who do not. Huckabee had some extremely bad ideas and it is an extremely good thing to see him go.

Now if we could do the same with the rest of "Government" we'd be okay :)

3. I haate to see it.
Huckabee is full blown batshit crazy. But he did have a certain effect of holding McCain in check.

7. And Jebezus said, go forth and make money
And Huckaduck went out and beget the speaking circuit, and it was profitable. And Jebezus said, I am the bank, the interest, and the offshore account, no man payeth taxes by me whilst speaking in tongues.

8. Oh, that's why he was talking so long.
My mom had her sound off. Figured it was so the anchors could take a dinner break.

10. No, he said outright that he would change the Constitution. He fought the bad fight.
He fought against America as it was designed, for all of us regardless of belief.

I hope he finds religion someday. It can be useful.
