The Company You Keep...
says a great deal about your character.
Regardless of whether or not Huckabee has openly allied himself with these nutcases doesn't matter, the fact that he has forged such strong personal ties with them over the years proves that he at least holds some- if not all- of their views on how this country should be run.
The fact that this man is running for the office of President of the United States is unbelievable. This nation holds in its founding documents that all citizens are granted liberty, and the right to practice (or NOT practice) any religion they choose. That a man with Huckabee's views and pronouncements would even entertain the idea of running for President shows how little he understands the nature of that position- and how fundamentally wrong it would be for a man so biased to be President.
These men and their organizations are frighteningly reactionary and violent: "It is dominion we are after. Not just a voice ... not just influence ... not just equal time. It is dominion we are after." - Just as Jesus would have wanted, right? Actually- quite the opposite.
These sentiments and individuals would be bizarre fringe groups at best in a normally funcitoning society. That they could gain attention- and especially the attention of a Presidential candidate- proves how vigilant we must always be to ensure that our rights and liberties are protected.
