Donahue, yes, the nutty one, is against Huckabee because he's too religious!

Here's Donahue at Justice (Just Us) Sunday:

Yeah, the Left is gettin' nervous, you know why? I got news for them. Remember that song by Bob Dylan that goes like this - “the times they are a changing?” They are changing, and the vector of change is moving our way, it’s not going their way any longer.

Let me give you an example here of what I’m talking about. Think of it metaphor – the culture is like several roads and that we’re all on a big bus. Well we know who’s been driving the bus – it hasn’t been us. Matter of fact, the Left who’s been driving the bus, they’re so sweet they allow us to sit in the back of the bus, that’s how tolerant they are. Right? Now they’ve been driving this bus down the wrong road for a long time. Now I’m saying to you people it’s time that we move to the front of the bus and that we took command of the wheel. That’s what I want to see.

Here's Donahue on Huckabee now:
"Because there's a pattern here," he added. "Every other word out of mouth is that 'I'm Christian.' He's calling into question Romney's Mormonism...let people talk about there faith, but don't sell it on your sleeve."

Added Donahue, "Yeah, I believe in freedom of speech and freedom of religion, but don't become a salesman. Don't hawk it like that on the street."

The Catholic League president suggested that Huckabee was relying on his faith too heavily as a campaign tactic....

"You know what?" concluded Donahue. "Sell yourself on your issues, not on what your religion is."

As pointed out at the site, "what Donahue really is -- what he has always been -- is not a religious spokesman of any kind, but a partisan hack whose real function is to elect Republicans however he can."

I will not gloat, I will not gloat, I will not gloat, I will try very hard not to gloat, I will gloat but I will try not to say "we told you so". They are eating their own.

And they hold that Catholisiscm is a cult, not 'real' Christians.

Donahue is just kicking him for the hell of it.

Huckabee must be taken down

He's a theocrat who's worried the mormon 'theos' might get to do all the 'cratting'. Donahue is the worst kind of monster asshole. The fact that good people die every day and this idiot fuck gets to live on keeps me an atheist.

Especially in the south. Chick-track-reading kind of protestant Christians. That's why Donohue is nervous.

A friend of mine decided to go back to college in his mid-20s (he had previously just graduated from a cc) and being of a religious nature (a good religious nature), he decided to go to Baptist Bible College in Springfield, MO (where Falwell graduated). It's one of those places where you have to sign a pledge to not listen to certain music, go to movies, watch certain TV stations, etc. I'm convinced Silver Dollar City survives and thrives just because that's about the only place they can go on the weekends. Anyway, my friend promptly ignored all that and even built himself a recording studio in his campus apartment and got our small hometown doctor (the only Jewish guy in town) to write a note that said that my friend suffered from a skin condition that made shaving painful so that my friend didn't have to shave (the doctor was tickled pink to be lying to Baptists).

Anyway, I took off from work (I live in Tulsa) on a Friday to go visit him, and I attended some of his classes with him. Everyone there had to wear nice suits or dresses, and I was walking around in tennies and a Superman t-shirt. I sat in on his Spanish class (one of my majors), and thanks to me, our group finished the in-class assignment first, and one of the group started chatting me up.

Him: So where did you go to college?
Me: Pittsburg State in south-east Kansas and then some grad work at Oklahoma State.
Him: Ah, Stillwater, Oklahoma. My friends and I used to go to Eskimo Joe's (famous bar/restaurant) when there was a good band playing. We would drive from Tulsa.
Me: I live in Tulsa now.
Him: Cool. What church do you go to.
Me: (Forgetting where I am) Oh, I don't attend any church regularly.
(Awkward silence)
Him: Well, if you're interested, there's a good church at 129th and...
Me: That was your church, wasn't it?
Him: Well, yeah...
Me: Actually, every now and then I do go to Saint Francis de Guadalupe (a Catholic church) to practice my Spanish and hear a friend play guitar in the choir.
Him: Oh.

And he didn't talk to me anymore. :) My friend thought it was a clever way of using Catholicism to get a Baptist off my back.
