Mike Huckabee, the Republican presidential candidate and former Southern Baptist minister, is getting help from Tim LaHaye, the Christian conservative organizer and co-author of the apocalyptic “Left Behind” novels. “America and our Judeo-Christian heritage are under attack by a force that is more destructive than any America has faced” since Hitler, Dr. LaHaye and his wife, Beverly, wrote in letters sent to lists of conservative Christians in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. “Defeating the radical jihadists will require renewed resolve and spiritual rearmament by the evangelical pastors in America.”[..] This can hardly be described as a positive development, though I’m not sure how much direct effect the LaHayes will have. Voters don’t typically look to novelists for political guidance (even if LaHaye’s been a conservative activist for decades), and the CWA is one of those aging, increasingly irrelevant groups of social conservatives. Sigh. You got to love that spiritual ‘warfare’ analogy….it’s so Christ-like, innit? AlterNet has the Five Things Mike Huckabee Doesn’t Want You To Know About Him.

America= "Judeo-Christian heritage" - neoconism phrase that has become a popular mantra as of late coming out of the yaps of La Hayes end-timers as well as from talk-radio jocks and from MSM tele-prompter readers. Lest we forget, what with the mind-numbing Thanksgiving shopping hooplah, that America's heritage can be traced to the Pilgrims ( like them or not), Christians all. There was no significant Jewish contingent on the Mayflower, regardless of what La Haye and Michael Savage and Sean Hannity and others might suggest.

I started a post on that subject earlier today, and decided not to post it...maybe I should reconsider. I've been harboring the suspicion for some time now, that the Mayflower probably DID have a significant Jewish contingent aboard, including some of Bush's ancestors. But our history did not start with the Pilgrims. It started at Jamestown.
Speak for yourself paleface. (Just joking.)
