Do we really believe this ‘fight them there so we don’t fight them here’ nonsense, as if our enemies couldn’t and aren’t already trying both? Isn’t our military overextended now when they could be heavily securing our borders? We need to remember that big business will not benefit by ending this terrible war, as lobbyists and Wall Street persuade the conservative voters in these United States of a need to keep the war machine well oiled and driving forward, giving billions to corporate war profiteers. It is time that conservative voters follow their Christian principles, those of the 'prince of peace'. One cannot be both ‘pro-life’ and ‘pro-war’, and wars of attrition should be approached only after all other strategies have failed. It is time that we again took the moral high ground in the free world by conducting business without bloodshed. The fight for peace must be fought for simultaneously and just as aggressively as this one that we must come out from under. When politicians play the fear card, there is nothing patriotic about our response in choosing brawn over brains. We need our counterterrorism efforts to be of the highest order, and we do not need them to become corrupted and commingled with war profiteering and nation building. Come November we had better prepare to select the next president by their true capacity to put God and country first. Appearances alone simply erect another Don Quixote that leads us astray.

Media is focused only on the Romney/McCain Cat fight They need to leave the gossip behind and focus on the issues. Huckabee clearly Showed he's presidential material. He was Clear, Concise, Witty, Informative. He has 40 delegates and only needs a state or two to move back into first place. CNN and MSNBC and Fox Snubbed Huckabee again....Is the Media swaying your vote? Do they speak for you? They do not speak for me! HUCKABIANS DO NOT SELL OUT YOUR VOTE!

Tony Perkins wants us to unite as Evangelicals when Tony Perkins is partially responsible for the division that he sees? Who would Tony Perkins suggest we vote for? Mitt Romney? His clear and decisive winner of the Value's Voter's conference in DC - when Huckabee was the clear favorite among those who attended. Would Tony Perkins have us support John McCain who's McCain/Feingold bill is responsible for his voter guides to be shut down and his endorsements and 1st Ammendment rights squelched? Or is he NOW finally trying to unify us all behind Huckabee in this very late hour in the campaign which much needed delegate territory has been lost? I think FRC and Tony Perkins owes Evangelicals and Mike Huckabee's campaign a heart felt appology and public endorsement - that is if they do not fear losing Mormon Money. Evangelical Leadership in this election has been very very poor and embarrassing to be a part of. The clear candidate has always been and still remains Mike Huckabee for those who vote their concsience and family values. Those with political agenda's made their choices early on. Time To Pay the Piper Perkins. I’m not sure I’m believing what I’m reading here.

He is pro-life or pro-choice depending on where he is running for office. he ran as pro-choice in Mass since it's a liberal state and now he is pro-life? The man exploits abortion for votes and FRC loves him. He also helped institute gay marriage in Mass and had a very liberal record. The man is so unethical--he will say or do anything to get elected. The Club for Growth attack on Huckabee was financed by Mitt Rommey, big-money friends. They contributed $750,000 to Club for Growth so they would go after Huckabee and distort his record. I can't believe you call yourselves Christians when you have sold your souls to Mitt Romney and his evil tactics.
