In case you are missing what is being run ad nauseum in New Hampshire, Iowa and South Carolina.

edit: and this is a POLITICAL ad.

1. No Huckleberry
What REALLY matters is that there are children who are hungry and cold...in the "richest" nation in the World.
I'm sure Jesus would rather us take care of THAT little problem before we showered excess on each other celebrating his birth.

7. You'd be amazed at what they are capable of finding.

I used to vette the "Requests for Reconsideration" at my local library system and the RRR are fully capable of finding demons in "Skippyjon Jones."*

Edit: *if they are told on what page and what paragraph and how many words in. Independent thinking is not their strong suit. They NEVER actually read the books.

8. Maybe Huckabee should try to trademark the name Jesus
Edited on Tue Dec-18-07 05:58 PM by aint_no_life_nowhere
the way Rudy has trademarked 911. Huckabee seems to be using it a lot these days.

9. disgusting!!
I'm no fundie, I don't go to church every Sunday. I smoke, cuss and drink. However, I know better than to exploit the name of Christ for votes. Keep on the lookout for lightning bolts Mr. Huckabee.
