Poses himself to be a good christian but he went to his ailing wife's hospital to have her sign the divorce papers. This is when Newtie was still married and he was having an affair with a younger woman. You see, when these so called self righteous pukingly hypocrites committ the same immoral acts, they turn the other cheek. In fact, they made Newtie their hero. But when liberals committ such immoral acts, they are the devils. I just love these neocons. Their hypocrisy is overwhelming :-) Democrat Soldier:

The churches have their own set of doctrines/beliefs, and they should be respected. But also, this must also be quid pro quo. Gay marriages should be allowed except in religious establishments, or any religion who do not condone such practice. And please, warriors of God, do not instill your religious beliefs to everybody. We respect your beliefs, but you must also respect those who do not share your beliefs. As for the idiotic dittoheads, the issue here is gay marriage, as in marriage between two consenting adults. We are not promoting marriage between a minor and an adult, or marriage between a dog and a human being, or even polygamy. I say you take your case against the mormons about polygamy. Remember, freedom of religion and Freedom from religion. One more thought for the intellectually challenged. We are not taking away your rights to pray or worship. You can worship anybody, anything, any beast you want, but do not force your religion in public schools. I also recall an idiot saying that "Liberals have taken away GOD from our public schools". Give me a break! Could such person be such an idiot? How could anybody possibly take away GOD from any place? It just doesn't make any sense. I thought GOD is everywhere? Even in the deep jungles of Borneo God is ever present, am I not right? Even while taking a dump God is still with you, is he not? Even when self righteous christian hypocrites consumate their love (i.e. sex), God is still present. So tell me, how could anybody take God away from any place? Sigh... such stupidity is beyond me.

Not if they <em>can</em> get married, but if the states will recognize it as legal. The only thing that impedes on their rights is the fact that thier marriage might not be considered legal. On the other hand, blacks literally had their rights stripped away, they weren't <em>allowed</em> to do things. They weren't <em>allowed</em> to sit at certian tables in restaraunts, sit in certain seats on a bus, vote. To compare Gay-rights to the civil-rights of African American's is absurd. REGARDLESS of the violence that Mr. Huckabee spoke about in his interview (which, documented or un-documented, African American's have suffered more of), the LGBT community has not had nearly the same amout of rights impeded on as african american's have. I think it's crazy, not to mention a manipulative tactic of the LGBT community to make people feel sorry for them. Look, I'm not for or against gays, let them do what they want to do, but as afforemntioned(that means "mentioned before", for those of you who are not educated, which seems like the majority) it is in no way a fair comparison. Oh, and, please, before you comment, actually research what you are talking about, the majority of you sound like incompetent idiots. okay, first of all, the only real civil rights issue with gays is the whole issue of marriage.

Gays are not being bashed in the head so their civil rights are not being violated, but then when examples, such as Matthew Shepard are pointed out to them, the response is, well Christians are getting harassed as well. Are their rights violated too? So the logic is what exactly? That Jesus said we'd know the wolves in sheep's clothing by the way they spoke? The simple truth is that Christ asks us to love and not to judge. Our secular response should come from that. Truth is simple, love and expect to be loved, it's direct, it's honest and it is what Christ asked us to do. If you have to talk in circles then I think it exposes how corrupt your interpretation of what Jesus' live meant, Mike Huckabee needs to be "born again". Maybe this time it will actually take.
