I am curious, why are Conservatives constantly bashing Huckabee? I constantly hear them refer to him as Huckleberry among other names. I thought name calling and making fun of names went out of style once you graduated 6th grade?
I constantly hear Governor Huckabee referred to as Former Pastor or Preacher and some even refer to him as still being a Preacher or Pastor when in fact, he hasn't been for more than 13 years. Not to mention the fact that he was Governor (10.5 years) longer than he was a Pastor (8 years).
Yet you never hear Mitt Romney referred to as Bishop Romney. Mitt Romney was indeed a Bishop of the Mormon faith for 3+ years. He was also "Stake" president in the Massachusetts area which oversaw all temples in Massachusetts. I would think that if we are going to constantly refer to Huckabee as Pastor, then we should give Bishop Romney equal time.
As for Liberals, Obama gets a pass when he refers to small town America as being bitter and "clinging to God and guns". The double standard is just too funny. I am amazed at just how blind and/or stupid we are as a society these days.
You'd have to ask a conservative why they bash Huckabee. I don't see it that way. He was after all the darling of the conservatives during the primaries. That's who supported him.
He's referred to as a 'former pastor' because that's what he is...a former pastor!????? I don't understand your point here - just as Bush is referred to as 'former Governor of Texas' and Hillary is referred to as 'former First Lady'. I always heard Romney referred to as a Mormon - so much so he was compelled to deliver a speech on him and his religion. I don't know what planet you live on where you missed this. It really doesn't matter though as the voters rejected both Romney and Huckabee.
Also Obama did not get a pass on the bitter comment. It was all the press reported on for a week re Obama and in the end the voters decided it didn't matter. Once that became evident, the story died.
I am amazed at how blind and stupid some folks are at interpreting the news.
At the annual NRA meeting, Mike Huckabee joked that a loud noise was Sen. Barack Obama ducking from a gun.
