I could never vote for somebody who thought that the world was roughly 6000 years old. Somebody who could honestly believe something that absurd, in the face of all the contrary evidence, doesn't have the judgment necessary to be entrusted with such power.
Originally posted by abnoxioThanks. He's ambiguous and leaves a way out. I also found a clip of him and Bill O'Reilly discussing it and he said he believes in a literal Adam and Eve. That''s pretty amazing to me. He'd probably do well to get Shwarzeneggar to be his running mate so people will forget about this.

Huckabee explaining his take on evolution.
Originally posted by abnoxioI don't see how someone who still believes in fairy tales can be eligible to run a country.
It seems that Mike Huckabee (the name "Huckabee" should disqualify him from the start) doesn't believe in evolution, at least not "macro-evolution" whatever the hell that means. I'm a die hard conservative, but I'm going to have a hard time voting for someone who has so much contempt for science.
You know that Tony Blair recently became a catholic. He said that he hadn't before because people would start thinking of him as a 'nutter'.
I'm not sure how relevant that is really - his political judgement was the thing that was being looked at rather more closely. He made a statement later in his career that he felt that god would be his judge. Ref the insanity in the middle east where we get back to all leaders claiming to have god on their side!!!
This bloke Mike Huckabee doesn't sound as bad as some. At least at the moment he is trying to tiptoe round the more extreme positions.
