Huckabee's new ad Options

The article only points out that Huckabee says "Christmas is about Jesus Christ" when in fact he continues to say "... and family and friends". It's a Merry Christmas ad.

Now people are up in arms about the supposed "cross" (which turns out is a bookshelf). First, who cares? It's Christmas, last time I checked, Christmas was supposed to be about Christ.

Second, if he has a cross does it matter? Can't he say whatever he wants? If people don't like it, don't vote for him.

I'm not for Huckabee because I think his politics on certain issues are questionable but this is insane. I guess if he had a Christmas ad with a 18 yr. old girl elf sitting on his lap while he did tequila shots it'd be ok.

Why would it be funny to you that a Republican presidential candidate would discuss their religion when the vast majority of their target voters are religious? It would seem to make sense to me. Just like how the democrat candidates discuss their gay tolerance.

because it's so in your face that it's hilarious. even rudy made fun of him (i think?)

i haven't seen the ad from hillary that says "today is gay pride day.... today we love gays. gays are the reason for the season."

i'm not dissing him for doing it. if that's his audience, fine, do what it takes. i'm not, so i can think it's funny.

i think it's kinda like the magnets on the back of the cars. "look at me, i'm a good person."

Maybe you see it that way. I just see it as the person experessing that it's his religion. I don't see it any different than someone putting a double-t on their vehicle because they support Texas Tech.
