Duncan Hunter endorses … Huckabee? What?

Mr. Border Fence is backing a guy who accused opponents of Bush’s immigration plan of nativism? Two days after Fred drops out because he can’t pull enough conservatives to beat John McCain?
Dude?
“I got to know Governor Huckabee well on the campaign trail,” Huckabee said in a statement. “Of the remaining candidates I feel that he is strongly committed to strengthening national defense, constructing the border fence and meeting the challenge of China’s emergence as a military superpower that is taking large portions of America’s industrial base.
“Along with these issues of national security, border enforcement and protecting the U.S. industrial base, I see another quality of Mike Huckabee’s candidacy that compels my endorsement,” he added. “Mike Huckabee is a man of outstanding character and integrity. I saw that character over the last year of campaigning and was greatly impressed. The other Republican candidates have many strengths and I wish them all well.”
The man who wants his foreign policy driven by the golden rule is the man to tame the Chinese dragon?
Am I hallucinating?
Update: What’s even odder is that Hunter’s often touted as a SecDef in the next Republican administration. Endorsing McCain, the frontrunner, would have helped him in that regard and given Maverick a boost with conservatives. Instead he throws his endorsement away on someone who’ll be done by February 6th.
I guess he just likes the guy.
Update: Joe Carter, Huck’s former research director, e-mails to say the nativism quote is being taken out of context:
Here is what he really said:
“I do believe some of it is driven by racism or nativism,” he said of the opposition within his party to Mr. Bush’s view that illegal aliens should not be deported but rather fined and eventually allowed U.S. citizenship.
When asked directly by the reporter if there wasn’t some xenophobia behind the opposition, Huckabee made the error of telling the truth. Having talked to more than a few anti-immigration extremist while on the campaign trail, I can attest that there is a segment of voters that is all for “throwing out the brown people.” Is that the majority of Republicans? Of course not. But it’s silly to pretend that the GOP doesn’t include its share of extremists.
Fair enough. Huckabee’s record on immigration goes way beyond that quote, though. Trot through Lonewacko’s archives sometimes and drink it in.

What you’re saying isn’t true.
The fair tax abolishes the personal income tax, the corporate income tax and taxes on savings,dividends and capital gains.
HaraldHardrada on January 23, 2008 at 5:12 PM
The High Reverend Huckster is no more going to do either one of those than John Edwards is going to raise Christopher Reeve from the dead and make him walk again.
You are blowing so much smoke that you probably have Gregor gasping for breath.

Well, HH said that he lives/works in LA. That should put him close to the great Cedars-Sinai hospital.

Tuco, find and ’shoot’ two bastardos, Huck/McVain, then get the gold, and live happy ever after. You’ll still be ugly, but the country and you will be better off. Maybe the world too.
Entelechy on January 23, 2008 at 5:14 PM
Duncan Hunter used to be Ann Coulter’s candidate, then she went bonkers and chose Mitt Romney, who is trying to hoodwink people into believing that Mormonism is something that it is not, namely Christian.
This is fabulous! Way to go Mr. Hunter!!!
Let’s see if Ann calls Duncan Hunter a “stupid Christian” now like she did Huckabee. Love to see how she handles this.

Wow, Duncan Hunter’s endorsement.
That’s a veritable tidal wave of support comming the Huckster’s way…
End result: it doesn’t make Huck look any better and it ends up making Dunk look worse.
SuperCool on January 23, 2008 at 5:23 PM
If anyone can get a 2/3rds majority and pass the fair tax,the human life amnedment and an affirmation of marriage as meaning one man and one woman…it is Mike Huckabee!
Take the bias out of your head for one second and then tell me Huckabee is not the most eloquent,honest and likeable candidate…..you can’t.
HaraldHardrada on January 23, 2008 at 5:24 PM
And establishes a national sales tax, similar to VAT. This in effect “re-taxes” any formerly after tax money that you have in savings when you ultimately use that money to purchase something. Older people who have scrimped and saved for a lifetime will not like that.

How so?
Are the chemicals from vehicles blessed and those for cigs cursed?

This is why I hate Huck supporters. They always have to invoke G-d. WTF is wrong with you people? Leave religion out of politics. You make me sick.
HebrewToYou on January 23, 2008 at 5:26 PM
The simple story is that everyone is lining up and supporting their favorite RINO in this race. Some prefer McCain’s brand of conservative flavored socialism and other like Huckabee’s or Romney’s brand better. What all this shows me is that the GOP is dead both in the brain and soul. I think it’s time to show them that not everyone will support lousy candidates just for the sake of the party.
Last conservative out of the GOP can turn off the lights.
Buzzy on January 23, 2008 at 5:27 PM
Did you just use the word “honest” in the same sentence as the name Huckabee?

apacalyps@5:15PM, Ann Coulter is also Christian. Yes, there are dumb, stupid, and ignorant Christians. Just as there are very intelligent Christians. Nothing precludes those that are dumb, stupid, or ignorant from running for POTUS either, last time I checked.
24K lady on January 23, 2008 at 5:28 PM
This is precisely why I am not fond of the angry “conservatives” and exactly why I like Mike. Huck says, “I’m a conservative but I’m not angry about it.” He’s talking about people like YOU hotair.com. Anger will diminish our party’s influence and will only turn new converts away.
popularpolitics on January 23, 2008 at 5:30 PM
popularpolitics spotted in the Hucketeers cabal…several couches being prepared, as I write…one, after the other, you’ll need therapy.
Are you all from the LA area, and are all of the Lord group?
Entelechy on January 23, 2008 at 5:30 PM
Ann Coulter is a Christian… really? Where in the Bible does Jesus say it’s okay to call people faggots?
popularpolitics on January 23, 2008 at 5:31 PM
I’m sure you’re smart enough to figure out the difference.
Try to imagine a piano accidentally falling on your head while being lifted to a second floor apartment. The answer would be the difference between that, and having someone purposely toss it from the roof onto you and your children as you walk down the sidewalk. You know? Just because it’s fun.
Gregor on January 23, 2008 at 5:32 PM
No, invoking G-d at every turn has made our party look feeble and inarticulate. And it’s why Huckabee is despicable. Religion is a private, personal matter. You should not be using it to bludgeon the electorate. Shame on you bible-thumpers. Religion is a beautiful thing…. when it’s kept out of the spotlight.
G-d doesn’t endorse politicians.

Can you feel it Harald? Everyone’s pointing at you and laughing.
Gregor on January 23, 2008 at 5:35 PM
This is beautiful. The fact that Duncan Hunter endorsed Mike Huckabee speaks volumes about the character of the man. Hunter is a really decent man. A solid all round politician. I mean, you can’t get much better these days than Duncan Hunter.
And what does he do?? He endorses Mike Huckabee!!
No, you’re not hallucinating. You’ve just been just wrong.
wrong. wrong. wrong.
apacalyps on January 23, 2008 at 5:35 PM
Yeah, a real true conservative, huh? This is the big set up. All the way around. Make sure no staunch type conservative gets in, we need only moderates. Newt was with Huckabee before the 1st debate and when Chuck endorsed him. I saw pics with one of Newt’s aids in DC that featured her with Newt, Huckabee, Huck’s wife, and Chuck. He was backing Huckster way before he made it public. Think back in the past about his $30 million and I’ll get in and be the “conservative” choice. Then speculate on the connection to Huck after he can’t pull the 30,000,000. Dismantle the party and come in as the conservative White Knight in 2012. But he forgets that TRUE Conservatives are Elephants. Elephants are notorious for having very long and very good memories. Least he and Duncan Hunter (whom I’ve voted for in the past) forget this simple fact. Good luck with Dog Catcher guys!
Sultry Beauty on January 23, 2008 at 5:36 PM
I disagree with about 90% of what csdeven has to say, but this is spot on. Huckabee is a frickin’ bigot and so is anyone who supports him.
He worked to elect Democrats; he called fellow Republicans shiites; he decided not to run a negative ad and then ran it anyway; he is behind these despicable push-pollers that broke the law in So. Carolina; and he, and especially his supporters, belittle the mormons whenever the opportunity presents itself.
The mormons are good people and true christians. Huckabee supporters are evil, bigoted worms that are perverting the christian faith.
HebrewToYou on January 23, 2008 at 5:36 PM
As a former Duncan Hunter supporter, the news of his alter call with Huck is indeed disappointing.
CliffHanger on January 23, 2008 at 5:38 PM
Invoking God makes us look inarticulate? Interesting, you must have thought our framers were complete morons then. You should read some of the speeches they gave and documents they wrote, religion was an indispensable topic.
No, but politicians can endorse God. And people have a right to vote based solely on that if they choose. Although Gov. Huckabee has far more going for him than just that.
popularpolitics on January 23, 2008 at 5:38 PM
Just say it uncool.
Duncan Hunter has a “blackness in his soul” or he is evil or some such thing for endorsing Gov. Huckabee, right. LOL.
This is great.

Huck strikes me more as a Wahhabbi.
He sees Mormons as Druze.
And he wonders why I stopped liking him.

Why should he start now? If I remember correctly he was void of facts when he was a Fredhead.

JiangxiDad on January 23, 2008 at 5:25 PM
I’m sure there are going to have to be a lot of details that are worked out when passing the fair tax…rebates for savings will definitely be one of them.
I’m not sure if everyone is aware of this, but there is severe problems with the stock market right now and abolishing the income tax and instituting the fair tax is the only thing that can fix it.
Bush and the dems rebate is not a solid solution maybe not even a solid band aid on the problem…and if the dems win forget it…the only thing we can all look forward to is not only a recession, but a depression on the scale of the great depression.
HaraldHardrada on January 23, 2008 at 5:41 PM
Just keep repeating it over and over. Eventually you might actually believe yourself.
Unfortunately for you, it will amount to almost no switchover votes as Hunter supporters would rather follow Heath Ledger into the afterlife than vote for that moron.
Good luck.

I’m sorry, I’m trying to be a good Christian, but you are just an idiot.
“…The longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the Sacred Writings, that ‘except the Lord build the House, they labor in vain that build it.” – Benjamin Franklin
If you scorn me for saying “God bless you” to someone, or talking about the One who inspired the creation of America and it’s judicial system, you scorn not only the God who gave you life, but the founding fathers themselves.
By the way, you make this a bigger deal then it really is with your incessant whining. Tip: just read and move on.
apacalyps on January 23, 2008 at 5:46 PM
When its surrounded by ludicrous positions like the Fair Tax and the Anti-Abortion Amendment, YES. Inarticulate is being polite. G-d wants nothing to do with Mike Huckabee.
Then why is the obscene majority of his support coming from naive Evangelical Christians? Oh, because he’s a bloody G-d invoking bigot! That’s why. Politicians SHOULDN’T endorse G-d because it makes them look like stupid preachy bastards. Your relationship with G-d does not need to be made public, yet that’s all Mike Huckabee seems to be good at doing.
That’s a curse coming from a Huck supporter.
HebrewToYou on January 23, 2008 at 5:47 PM
27. But that is young to me.
JiangxiDad on January 23, 2008 at 5:47 PM
While it might be honorable to be interested in politics at a young age, I wouldn’t be too impressed by the fact that he purposely ignores reality and seems to intentionally lie about Huckabee’s record. What exactly is to be admired?
It’s not like he’s simply mistaken. The truths about Huckabee are impossible to deny without being dishonest.
Gregor on January 23, 2008 at 5:48 PM
Agreed.
I’ve been a long time Newt fan. But after his clandestine backing/support of Huckascam that is all over.
I will remember.

That’s a pretty profound judgment about what is or isn’t Christian…especially coming from someone who is not a Christian.
Your moral authority on what is or isn’t Christian has been revoked and you have exposed yourself as a true anti Christian bigot.
HaraldHardrada on January 23, 2008 at 5:49 PM
popularpolitics@5:31PM - and under what change to the Constitution would you have us take away Ann Coulter’s right to say whatever word(s) she chooses? We may not always like or condone certain words or phrases, but any politician that talks of changing that glorious document to fit their religion, personal belief, or simply their own values - scares me spitless. Your use of the word “converts” is truly interesting when used with the choosing of a political party.
24K lady on January 23, 2008 at 5:50 PM
A Huckabee supporter claiming that Huckster is a conservative is no different than John McCain claiming he’s never supported amnesty.
It’s an intentional lie.

apacalyps on January 23, 2008 at 5:52 PM
It’s amazing to me that so many people buy into this “G-d founded America” business. It’s absolute nonsense. Just because founding fathers had religious beliefs didn’t mean that their ideas were based on Christianity. How about giving credit where credit is due?
The Greek philosophers, the Magna Carta and The Scottish Enlightenment are much more indicative of the inspiration for our nation. It’s not the belief in the Judeo-Christian G-d, despite your bigoted beliefs.
Religion can be inspirational, but it has a history of perverting government — not improving it.
HebrewToYou on January 23, 2008 at 5:53 PM
As a Christian Harald, do believe it’s okay to lie to support Huckabee? I’m curious how you call yourself a practicing Christian if you come on here every day and purposely post lies and manipulations of the facts. Is it all in the name of the greater good?
I’m a Christian and I find it completely offensive. That’s why most Christians dislike Huckabee.
Gregor on January 23, 2008 at 5:53 PM
BIGOT - A statement of surrender during an argument. When two people or disputants are engaged in an acrimonious debate, the side that first says “Bigot!” has conceded defeat. Synonymous with saying “Resign” during a chess game, or “Uncle” during a schoolyard fight. Originally, the term was meant to indicate that one side was accusing the other of being bigot, but once it was noticed that people only resorted to this tactic when all other arguments had been exhausted, it acquired its new meaning of “indicating one’s own concession of defeat.”

JD, you are the nicest man…on HA :)
Entelechy on January 23, 2008 at 5:54 PM
Well, I think Gov. Huckabee has been very articulate in explaining the FairTax and why it would be a good idea, so we’ll have to disagree on that end. Also, the abortion amendment is actually essential if you believe life is sacred from conception ’til death, so we just have a disagreement on that too. Can’t we disagree without getting angry and derisive?
Also, I think it’s pretty obscene to say God doesn’t want anything to do with Huck, considering God loves everyone. Including us Christianit-perverting, evil worms. lol
Well, ministers have a right to run for office, and they will be elected or not based on the electorate. Your opinion doesn’t amount to much if the people actually nominate him. This is America, where you can elect a minister if you want, or an atheist for that matter (Barney Frank anyone?)
lol.

I don’t hate Christians. I hate people who wear their religion on their sleeve, promoting it as if it’s the one true faith. You sound like Islamofascists! Invoking G-d here and there as if you had some personal correspondance with him.
Keep your damn religion to yourself and out of politics. I love religious people; I just don’t like them telling me who or what a “Christian” is. You’re the bigots and hypocrites. I read the posts where you called the Mormon religion unchristian. Shame on you all.

G-d doesn’t love everyone. If you’ve actually read the bible you’d understand that. G-d didn’t flood the earth because he loved everyone. The G-d of the Jews is a vengeful and angry G-d. The whole “G-d loves everyone” bit is Christian dogma, not Jewish.

Look, I get it. You’re obviously a smoker and you can’t stand to have someone else infringe on your right to commit suicide. Fine. But don’t sit here and pretend you don’t get it. You know the difference.
People shoot guns every day. There’s a difference between accidentally getting hit with a stray bullet while hunting, and having a guy walk up to you and shoot you in the forehead.
If you want to do a Heath Ledger, that’s okay with me. I just have a serious problem when you start forcing pills down my children’s throats.
Gregor on January 23, 2008 at 5:59 PM
Anne Coulter bashes a fellow Christian, in the person of Mike Huckabee, for not more vigorously debunking the fairy tale of evolution, yet the Mormon church teaches that Jesus and Lucifer are brothers and this women doesn’t say a word? This Mormon belief alone is heretical (and blasphemous) for it changes Jesus’ claim to be “the only begotten of the Father.” What does she do? Calls Huckabee a “stupid Christian” and endorses Romney!
Sorry. After her attack against Huckabee (without even calling Mike to talk first) she scares me now. And I bought her book, “Godless” and liked it enough to buy a second copy for a friend.

What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy.
- James Madison
I have examined all the known superstitions of the world and I do not find in our particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology. Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, and imprisoned. What has been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the earth. The clergy converted the simple teachings of Jesus into an engine for enslaving mankind to filch wealth and power to themselves. They, in fact, constitute the real Anti-Christ.
- Thomas Jefferson
MB4 on January 23, 2008 at 6:01 PM
I’m afraid you’re right. Broad-based conservatism is dead, and we’re simply waiting to see which piece, if any, survives.
steveegg on January 23, 2008 at 6:03 PM
Well, actually it depends on the way you look at it. In the new testament it says that God desires everyone to be saved and that none would perish. Why? Because He loves the.
God loves all his people since he created them. But in their severe disobedience he will punish and indeed extinguish them if need be, just as in the days of Noah. Sin corrupts the soul, and without Christ’s blood to cleanse and restore, then death will be a natural consequence to that sin.
popularpolitics on January 23, 2008 at 6:03 PM
When the hate is directed at people who slander Mormons for believing in a fable slightly more recent than traditional Chrsitians, then yes. It is nice. Christians should promote tolerance, yet all I heard recently from likes of Harald, apocalpys and the other Huck-schmucks is how UnChristian the Mormon religion is.
And you call ME the hater? Ha!
I tolerate all religious views as long as you are the belief that religion is a PERSONAL relationship with G-d.
HebrewToYou on January 23, 2008 at 6:03 PM
It is impossible to take these religious gibots seriously. Their giboted rantings are the reason why rational folks avoid the republican party. No matter what we do, these fools show up and remove all doubt that there is a very vocal, yet in the minority, group of vile gibots trying to high jack this party.
csdeven on January 23, 2008 at 6:04 PM
What will Ann Coulter do now? She has raked Hucakbee over the coals while saying she like Hunter (until he dropped out) at which she endorsed Romney. If she thinks Cong. Hunter is so great, she’s got to either hate him or give Huckabee a break?!?!

Aren’t you the same guy who said you are jewish but you support Mubarak Hussein Obama??
What do you think about all of the other candidates (both dem and rep) plans to force Israel to give up all of it’s reclaimed lands to the arab muslim terrorist palestineans and create a muslim terrorist state in the middle of Israel with Jerusalem as it’s capitol?
Did you know Mike Huckabee is the only candidate who opposes this?

First correct statement you’ve ever made. Huck is a liberal. His supporters are just mindless drones living their silly little lives according to the most literal possible reading of some late iron age mythology, and Huck is their Televangelist in Chief.

If you want to play the quote game, I bet I can get far more positive of Christianity from the founders then you can negative.
John Adams and John Hancock:
We Recognize No Sovereign but God, and no King but Jesus! April 18, 1775
Benjamin Franklin:
“ God governs in the affairs of man. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured in the Sacred Writings that except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it. I firmly believe this. I also believe that, without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel”

Such is why I said the whole “G-d loves everyone” bit is a Christian belief, not a Jewish one. So don’t claim *my* G-d loves idiots like you. I can’t support such nonsense.

In all fairness, this is a silly statement. While I understand the anger at some who go to far, it would be against Christian belief to “keep our faith to ourselves.”
We can “wear our faith on our sleeve” without being overly aggressive or obnoxious about it. Huckabee supporters are obnoxious and arrogant, and they certainly aren’t interested in following Christian teachings regarding honesty.

Yes they are, if you go by what he’s done, not by what he says. You’re blinded by your religion and LA living. How the two come together in one like you is beyond me. You’re an odd creature.

Apacalyps [updated] is a marvelous curiosity … he thinks he is the Creator’s pet … he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn’t it a quaint idea.

Although I don’t agree with all your sediments regarding the loss of Fred (i.e. I’m not interested in saving a more moderate DNCminor version of the GOP), I hear what you wrote and agree with much of the sentiments. Thank you for sharing your thoughts Kimberly!
