Huckabee ready for the holy war

   Posted by: Matt Dioguardi   in 2008 presidential campaign

Huckabee in his own words:

People look at my record and say that I’m as strong on immigration, strong on terror as anybody. In fact I think I’m stronger than most people because I truly understand the nature of the war that we are in with Islamo fascism. These are people that want to kill us. It’s a theocratic war. And I don’t know if anybody fully understands that. I’m the only guy on that stage with a theology degree. I think I understand it really well. And know the threat of it is absolutely overwhelming to us. As a president, nobody’s going to be stronger on building border security, not having amnesty, no sanctuary cities, having a process in place that forces a process that is legal. When it comes to national security, I understand that the threat that we face is not about our grandchildren having better homes and better cars, it’s about whether they’re going to have a breath and a pulse.

He understands the threat coming from Islam because he has a degree in theology? So it really is a holy war after all? (And actually, speaking truthfully, Huckabee doesn’t actually have a degree in theology. See here.)

And what’s this about “better homes and better cars” not being important. This type of anti-consumption nonsense is much better suited for a democrat than a republican. This is anti-business stuff you’d expect from a socialist, not someone running on the republican ticket.
