I don't want a president who sees himself (or herself) as an agent of God. I want a president who sees himself as a defender of the Constitution. Make that the defender of the Constitution, considering he holds the highest office in the land.

Tell me, how is Huckabee's vow to take America back for Christ any different from Osama Bin Laden's call for jihad to overthrow the Saudi royal family and take back his nation for Allah?

I have a better idea. Let's take back our Constitution from the Christian fundamentalists!

Being an Evolutionist...you might already suspect how I might think about "faith-based presidencies".

So with that said, AnnieFey, I'll say Amen to your posting (no disrespect or pun intended)!

Turn on ANY brand of political machine - and it automatically goes to the "SPIN and LIE CYCLE" wink
