Huckabee: Florida’s Conservative Choice

Okay, I know I’m a native Texan…but you just can’t take the Florida out of a girl.  I loved  my four years there and hope one day to be blessed enough to move back by the ocean.  I am posting this short blog to counteract the reporting on Fox’s UNFAIR and UNBALANCED news.  Huckabee is not giving up on Florida.  He is retooling his campaign because he wants to win!  Doing the same thing over and over again and not getting the desired results is insanity.  Because he is a very intelligent man, Huckabee is in re-design mode.  From his … Continue reading Huckabee: Florida’s Conservative Choice

Huckabee’s Hope for America

Yesterday I used a gift card to buy Mike Huckabee’s new book, From Hope to Higher Ground. I was disappointed by last night’s South Carolina primary results, but still I picked up his book to see what he really believes. I wanted to see for myself what kind of writer Huck is; I am not disappointed! In fact, Huckabee’s first two chapters inspired me to look up the word hope in the Bible and see what God has to say on the subject. Huck has a God-given insight to the hurts of people around him; he really sees that people … Continue reading Huckabee’s Hope for America

Huckabee’s Plan: Energy Independence

I sure am writing a lot about Mike Huckabee these days even though my original goal is to encourage those in the faith. There is so much about his messages that resonate with me. Today I must admit I am angry. Why? I’m mad because it’s time to fill the car up again with gas, and the price just keeps going up and up. I have a smallish car, and I get great gas mileage. But it costs over $40 to fill up the tank. This increase doesn’t just raise prices at the pump; the jump in oil prices has … Continue reading Huckabee’s Plan: Energy Independence

Taxes, Government and Christ

I watched the debate on Fox News last night and was reminded that, like all people who walk on this earth, all those candidates are just people. Like you and me, they all make mistakes. As my dad would say, they all put their pants on one leg at a time. It’s helpful to remember that when you watch the debates and other events that showcase them. I wish they’d spend more time talking about how they’d solve problems than pointing fingers at each other’s mistakes, but that’s for a different post. Today I need to write about taxes and … Continue reading Taxes, Government and Christ

Huckabee’s Wisdom

The more I listen to Mike Huckabee, the more convinced I am of his authenticity and of his wisdom. I have been concerned with the turn our nation has taken over the past several years. We appear to be on the edge of another recession. Morality has become a bad word in secular circles as people turn towards shades of gray in areas where all was once either right or wrong. An advice columnist in the Dallas Morning News wrote yesterday in answer to a question about why it is no longer shameful for people to live together before marriage: … Continue reading Huckabee’s Wisdom
