All you really need to know about Mike Huckabee
http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/11/20/huckabee.iowa/index.html

HEADLINE: Huckabee gains ground with Iowa evangelicals

<snip>
Matt Reisetter, a young evangelical leader who signed onto the Huckabee campaign this month, said the former Arkansas governor is gaining momentum among pastors across Iowa with his anti-abortion, anti-gay marriage record and because Huckabee, a former Baptist preacher, speaks their language.

"We don't question where he's at, we don't question what he believes. He's one of us," said Reisetter.

If Huckabee is elected president, kiss goodbye to a woman's right to choose, as well as civil rights for gays & lesbians!

1. Mike Huckabee is one of the scariest neocon fucks alive
Someday maniacs like him will not be allowed to run for president of ANYTHING, let alone president of the country, but that's still a long time off.

4. I'm not sure I would classify Mike Huckabee as a "neocon"
He's a dangerous as fuck Christo-Fascist nut, but strictly speaking, NOT a neocon.

5. And he doesn't believe in science.
"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth," said Huckabee, an ordained Baptist minister. "A person either believes that God created the process or believes that it was an accident and that it just happened all on its own."

Huckabee later added, "If anybody wants to believe that they are the descendants of a primate, they are certainly welcome to do it."
