huckabee wants women to be submissive

[undercutter2006]

In a television interview, the ordained Southern Baptist minister and former Arkansas governor made no apologies for the comment made at a Southern Baptist Convention meeting in Salt Lake City.

"It was a speech made to a Christian gathering, and, and certainly that would be appropriate to be said to a gathering of Southern Baptists," Huckabee said on NBC's "Meet the Press."

He gave the speech the same year he endorsed the Baptist convention's statement of beliefs on marriage that "a wife is to submit graciously to the leadership of her husband even as the church willingly submits to the headship of Christ." Huckabee and his wife, Janet, then signed a full-page ad in USA Today in support of the statement with 129 other evangelical leaders.

The former governor, who rallied Christian evangelicals to make him a surprise force in Iowa, has put his faith front and center in his campaign.
