http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/12/18/h...d-_n_77315.html (sorry couldn't find a good article)
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. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

It is pretty ridiculous that people are going nuts about this ad. Who cares? The man is an avowed Christian and he's not shy about it. I won't vote for him, but he's just pandering to his core demographic. *shrugs*

i don't plan on it.
it's just funny to me that some of the christian candidates try to make sure everyone know that they are christian. it's very important that i'm christian cause that's what makes me a good person. if i wasn't a christian i would be a bad bad person. because that's what people who aren't christians are. doesn't bother me. nothing new. just funny. edit: video at the bottom... http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Scarborough_...tical_1219.html rudy made a funny!! i think...

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. |

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." -------------------- Don't sweat the petty, pet the sweaty.

I would like to know where you get this statistic from.... that most Republicans are religious. Many people who vote republican are fiscally conservative and it has nothing to do with a moral stance.
