What Would Huckabee Do?

My comment on Huffington Post to: "Mike Huckabee Doubles Down On Controversial Kennedy Comments".  I saw Huckabee make his comments and I was totally disgusted and turned him off right after he said Obama plan would have sent the Senator home with a pill. I guess in his own twisted mind his comments were a compliment to the Senator, but I felt it was both disrespectful to Senator Kennedy and President Obama.

If we apply the Republican standards for comments I think Mike Huckabee should apologize, because a large group of people are outraged and offended by his comments. I know he will not because the Republicans don't apologize. The Republicans have a habit of seizing upon comments made by Democrats and their supporters, taking one or two words and twisting them to imply something totally different than what was intended by the speaker and demanding an apology. 

The crazy thing is they usually get their apology, this has been tested and proven.  When John Kerry made his remarks about the troops during his presidential campaign, when they used the Rev. Wright tapes against Obama, when Obama said "bitter and cling to guns", when Obama said the police behaved "stupidly", any little thing they want to take out of context.

I am not a Democrat or Republican, I am not even a citizen of this country, but I have lived and worked here for over thirty years. I grew up here coming when I was seven years old. I have been paying taxes since I started working at the age of sixteen, so I think I can comment about what is happening in our country. I did donate to Obama and was a volunteer for his campaign. 

The decision made by the politicians affect my life in many ways, and I think the Republicans are just rude and their philosophy frightens me. I do not want to see them have the kind of power they have had for the past 25 years and I am patiently waiting for the Republican era to come to an end.

Mike Huckabee is a poor excuse for a Christian, and unfortunately he has an audience, because there is a certain charm about him. But he is really a charlatan. He is deceitful in his presentation of the healthcare issue, and Obama proposed plan. His lies to willful deception shows he is not a true follower of the teachings of Jesus, his comments just exposed his hypocrisy, a common theme among Republicans.

Why wouldn’t Mike Huckabee want universal healthcare for all Americans, I am not a Christian, but I was raised in the Christian faith, I know a little about Jesus.  I think Jesus would want healthcare for all Americans. The bible says Jesus healed the sick so I think he thought the sick should not be scorned, or refused help for their ailments. Huckabee needs to read his bible and stop spreading misinformation and hate.
