The Huckabee back pedal
Jan. 17th, 2008 07:18 amHuckabee: On two things. The context is two things. Human life amendment, which I support and which has been in the Republican platform since 1980. And by the way, Fred Thompson doesn’t support it, nor does John McCain.And yet it’s part of our platform and it’s a very important part of our platform to say that human life is something we’re going to stand for.And the second thing is traditional marriage. So those are the two areas in which I’m talking about. I’m not suggesting that we re-write the constitution to reflect tithing or Sunday school attendance. I want to make that very clear.
Human life amendment. Not every religion believes that life begins at conception, or when the sperm leaves the mans' body, or with dinner and a movie. He is still wanting to re-write the Constitution to fit his version of a "Christian Nation".
"Traditional Marriage" is the catch phrase for misogynistic, homophobic fundies. Traditional family, traditional marriage.
What next Huckabee? Want to try to put women are chattel into the Constitution too?
