Huckabee: Amend Constitution for God
A month after Mitt Romney declared that "freedom requires religion," Mike Huckabee is explaining his desire for constitutional amendments outlawing abortion and same-sex marriage in starkly religious terms.
At a campaign event in Michigan Monday night, Huckabee said that he supports such amendments because "it's a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God."
"What we need to do," he said, "is to amend the Constitution so it's in God's standards rather than trying to change God's standards so it lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and how we treat the family."
Wow.

Yeah, it doesn't sound like he wants to BE president--it sounds like he wants to OVERTHROW the existing government and establish a theocracy.
Huckabee!!
I have to admit, I love Steven Colbert so much that I may just vote for a Republican that thinks he's God's Chosen Messenger so Colbert will make it on to a ticket.
Ha!
Ha! I have a Colbert for Prez bumper-sticker I keep meaning to put up. Thanks for reminding me!
