Governor Huckabee, its not too late to change your mind.



President Obama came out today with a surprise policy announcement that, if implemented, would likely result in the destruction of Israel.

Obama said that he believes Israel should "pull back to 1967 borders" and that a Palestinian state should be created.

Both moves would spell doom for Israel, a vital ally in the region, and potentially cause the deaths of millions of people.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already rejected Obama's plan, saying the 1967 borders are "militarily indefensible."

Israel is surrounded by hostile Muslim countries sworn to its destruction.

Only a few months ago, during a trip to Israel, Gov. Huckabee rejected the notion of a creating a Palestinian state out of territory Israel occupies, calling it "un-workable, un-reachable, and un-realistic."

On the subject of borders, Huckabee also stood by Israel, saying the Jewish people have "indiginous rights" to the land they occupy that go back "not just 60 years or 80 years, but 3,500 years."

Governor Huckabee, its not too late to change your mind.

Why Mitt Romney Can't Win

Quite simply, Mitt Romney is a pandering, rudderless, political opportunist who has a long history of changing his views on core moral and ethical issues to suit the contituency he is trying to curry favor with at the moment.

Fortunately for America, Google is a-political. Check out the kind of things Google pulls under a simple search for "Mitt Romney." Nuff said.

Romney Chairman quits. Can't deal with "ever-changing persona."

Mitt Romney's 2008 New Hampshire chairman, Bruce Keough, just declined an invitation to handle Romney's 2012 campaign saying he's "no longer sure what Romney stands for."

According to Keough, he could no longer handle Romney's "wishy-washy political identity and inability to stake out firm, consistent opinions."

Imagine how slimey do you have to be to be too slimey for a seasoned political operative.

No Huckabee, no debate. Romney bows out.

Back in February, I blogged that I didn't thing anyone serious was going to participate in any early GOP presidential debates until they knew what Huckabee was going to do. About Romney,specifically, I said I didn't think he would risk sharing the stage early on with the likes of the Godfather's Pizza CEO and the guy who yells "the rent's too damn high" only to have Huckabee throw his hat in the ring later.

Well, Romney bowed out of the first debate today saying, "the field is too unsettled and he's not an announced candidate."

As I said before, any debate without Huckabee at this stage of the game will be considered illigitimate.

Huckabee Statement: "Welcome to hell, bin Laden."

The following is the full text of Mike Huckabee's statement on the killing of Osama bin Laden by U.S. forces, taken from MikeHuckabee.com.

"It is unusual to celebrate a death, but today Americans and decent people the world over cheer the news that madman, murderer and terrorist Osama Bin Laden is dead. The leader of Al Qaeda--- responsible for the deaths of 3000 innocent citizens on September 11, 2001, and whose maniacal hate is responsible for the deaths of thousands of US servicemen and women was killed by U.S. military. President Obama confirmed the announcement late last night. DNA tests confirmed his death and his body is in the possession of the
U.S.

It has taken a long time for this monster to be brought to justice. Welcome to hell, bin Laden. Let us all hope that his demise will serve notice to Islamic radicals the world over that the United States will be relentless is tracking down and terminating those who would inflict terror, mayhem and death on any of our citizens."

WHISPERS: Huckabee/Barbour?

A person I trust whispered to me today that a possible Huckabee/Barbour ticket may be in the works - if Mike Huckabee secures the GOP nomination. Huckabee, the only candidate capable of uniting the GOP, winning the nomination, and competing with Obama in the general election, would find his efforts greatly enhanced by the support of Haley Barbour, his "rolodex," and fundraising capability.


A few weeks ago, much news was made by rumored conversations between Huckabee and Barbour, and both men expressed praise for one another.

Barbour unexpectedly announced he would not seek the GOP nomination last week, clearling the way for Huckabee in the vital South.

Huckabee/Barbour? What do you think?

NRA Hearts Huckabee

MIke Huckabee received the most enthusiastic response of any candidate or potential candidate at this weekend's National Rifle Association convention.

According to Politico, Huckabee said nothing about a potential 2012 run for president "but sounded more like someone seriously considering jumping into the race than [he has] in recent public appearances - covering a full plate of issues, from foreign policy to economic recovery."

One Huckabee supporter, as she left the arena that night was quoted saying, "There's no doubt he's running after that speech!"

Mike Huckabee has a long, uninterrupted history of defending gun rights. LaPierre, the CEO of the NRA, praised Huckabee as an avid hunter and a Governor who consistently signed laws to protect gun owners.

Social consertatives in the audience brought Huckabee some of the loudest cheers, according to Politico, and excited attendees who want desperately for him to run fpr president.

"Money is not everything in our life," said Jill Montgomery, a beauty salon owner from Pennsylvania. "People can do with a lot less money, but we can't do it without God and family."
