Who cares about mortal endorsements?
"STUDENT: Recent polls show you surging... What do you attribute this surge to?
HUCKABEE: There's only one explanation for it, and it's not a human one. It's the same power that helped a little boy with two fish and five loaves feed a crowd of five thousand people. (Applause) That's the only way that our campaign can be doing what it's doing. And I'm not being facetious nor am I trying to be trite. There literally are thousands of people across this country who are praying that a little will become much, and it has. And it defies all explanation, it has confounded the pundits. And I'm enjoying every minute of them trying to figure it out, and until they look at it, from a, just experience beyond human, they'll never figure it out. And it's probably just as well. That's honestly why it's happening."

A remember reading something, on a travel blog/website, where the writer was lamenting that the term "World Class" no longer meant anything special. Essentially that the cliche is so ubiquitous that it now means its exact opposite. Wish I could credit the writer, as it makes even more sense when applied to the political realm!

For once (it's a Christmas miracle, darn it) I'm going to agree with nogo: Mike Hukabee scares the bejesus out of me!
However, I don't feel fear for too long: I believe in the wisdom of former Bush adviser Dan Bartlett. In a widely-publicized exit interview with the DC press corps, Bartlett said that, while Huckabee will seem strong in the first part of the campaign, his candidacy will ultimately go nowhere. Why? Because no one with a silly-sounding last name like "Huckabee" will ever be elected president.

I always thought one characteristic of geniuses was that they had excellent memories. How many times did Bill's wife say "I don't recall" or "I don't remember" when testifying about her shady and questionable dealings?
How long did it take her to "remember" the Rose files were actually in her office?
Sounds more like a "here's your sign" situation than a genious.
(I remember hearing a parody song someone wrote a about that back in the early 90's but I couldn't find it on the net. It would be pretty funny to hear again...)

Nogo, what problem do you have with what Huckabee said? Really. I am curious.
I do believe in the power of prayer and I could never rule it out as a factor, even if I question it in this case. But it dosen't bother, concern, or scare me if he want's to believe this. More power to him.
Now I'm no Huckabee fan. I've liked some of the things he's claimed, but as far as I'm concerned he's as phoney as Romney or John Kerry a lot of the time and way too left to even consider; but I sincerely want to know what problem you have with what you quoted and why you felt it was worth posting in this thread?
(Or from any leftist who shares that view for that matter. Or could you point me to the blog where you got that little tidbit so I can read the comments there?)

p. bunyan: Because as a lib, nogo feels everyone should be as outraged about religion as he is. Faith in anything besides government and liberals is not allowed. You are a ward of the state in his eyes.
I am by no means a religious person, but i have the common sense to respect it, and respect people that have faith. It is a personal choice and people like nogo are offended to all hell that people have the freedom to have faith in something besides government.

wavemaker ~ I believe Clinton was telling the truth (as he himself is fond of saying, "Even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then"), although he phrased it awkwardly. He was the "longest-serving" Governor in the country, having been elected to his fifth consecutive two-year term in 1990 (and sixth overall).
Paul Hooson ~ Must you disparage a fine American corporation which supplied generations of cartoon characters with products which almost always nearly worked some of the time? Why not assume Mr. Coyote, in his zeal to snare his prey, failed to read the disclaimers and fine print?
