Huckabee Rallies Support for Akin

(If the party does persaude Akin to withdraw--you're going to have a lot of social conservatives who will not vote in November in Missouri--especially for a substitute senate candidate--and possibly nationally):

Mike Huckabee rallied hundreds of Southern Baptists on a conference call in support of Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO), offering advice about how they can help the embattled Missouri Senate candidate stay in the race, Politico reports.

Said Huckabee: "This could be a Mount Carmel moment. You know, you bring your gods. We'll bring ours. We'll see whose God answers the prayers and brings fire from heaven. That's kind of where I'm praying: that there will be fire from heaven, and we'll see it clearly, and everyone else will to."

1. What the poor fool does not understand is that science won that fight, not his "God".

Could Elijah have started a fire with water on Mount Carmel? YES. It's called automatic fire (and it's renewed my interest in Chemistry). Basically, you can mix Sulfur, Neptha, and Quick Lime, then add water and BAM, you got a fire. Now, while that doesn't PROVE that's how he did it, they did show that it was pretty probable he'd have had the ingredients and knowledge to do such a thing.

2. That whole last paragraph reads like pure insanity to me.

Otherwise, keep counting the take from your protection racket.
