In 2007, Mr. Huckabee said: “We did a great job of going in and toppling Saddam Hussein. The tough part has been bringing some sense of stability there. And so it’s been a struggle for the president. I think the domestic agenda has also been something that’s almost been ignored and overlooked because we have spent so much of a time on Iraq.”
On Tuesday he said: “As president, I promise you that we will no longer merely try to contain a jihadism, we will conquer it. We will deal with jihadis just as we would deal with deadly snakes. And let there be no doubt, Israel will know, as will the whole world, that we are their trusted friend.”...
No one likes abortion. The many children in this country is testament to that fact. Americans love children and we love our families, so to that reality Former Governor Huckabee is way off base when he covets uterus not belonging to him.
There are more than 320 million people in the USA; of those citizens 74.5 million are children age 17 or younger. That is about 23 percent of the country's people. That is not a country that doesn't want children. It is easy to tell the USA loves family in reflection of the diversity of faiths which is a First Amendment right.
The moral content of the country is intact with acceptance of the LGBT members and their excellent parenting skills. There is no reason to believe any LGBT in the USA is some sort of profane aspect of our society. Huckabee is a perversion from the past.
We are a democracy and accept the diversity of our lives and celebrate it. I am grateful everyday the USA is a diverse melting pot and not a society that ostracizes one religion over another. The USA is a strong and good country. The Former Governor has never accepted the very foundation of our USA Constitution. He is of the old school that the USA is a Christian country in need of spiritual guidance daily to function and make decisions.
The First Amendment DICTATES all Americans accept any forms of religion and it's benevolence to the stability and moral content of the country. The Former Governor has no right to hack away at any person's personal choices. Personal choices are guaranteed to Americans and it makes our economy vibrant to that reality.
