Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee called President Barack Obama’s speech at the National Prayer Breakfast — in which Obama brought up Christians’ misdeeds during the Crusades — “nothing short of shocking” and accused the president on Monday of coddling the Muslim community.
“Everything he does is against what Christians stand for, and he’s against the Jews in Israel,” Huckabee said on “Fox and Friends.” “The one group of people that can know they have his undying, unfailing support would be the Muslim community.”
Huckabee, a potential 2016 presidential hopeful, made his comments after Obama on Thursday caused an uproar in the Christian community by saying in regard to Islamic extremists’ atrocities in Iraq and Syria, “lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ.”
Huckabee called the remarks “absolutely stunning” and said, “This president has a high horse himself: It’s his TelePrompTer.”
Seriously? What a load of crap.
You know when the President directs a drone strike his targets are exclusively Muslim. Which makes me think that the Muslims around the world may not feel they have President Obama's "undying support."
I think the President is trying to demonstrate that he treats people of ALL religious faiths equally, and favors none over any other, despite his personal religious faith.
Which of course is as it should considering that America is a melting pot made up of various ethnicities and religious backgrounds.
However the President is also sending the message that if you wish to cause harm to the United States, you are our enemy regardless of which God you choose to worship.
What I get from Huckabee's statement is that he feels Christianity should be considered the state religion, and that Christians should be favored over all others, even if they do wrong.
And that is why he should NEVER be elected President of this country.
Ever!
