The Threat Of Huckabee

No one should under-estimate the danger he represents: a significant ratcheting up of the theocratic tendencies in contemporary Republicanism. This quote is particularly alarming:

"I believe it’s a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God. And that’s what we need to do, is to amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards rather than try to change God’s standards."

Hence the need to amend the constitution to prevent liberty and equality being extended to gay people. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are always subject to Biblical truth in the Christianist mindset. Gay people have yet to confront an enemy as potent as Huckabee.
