Huckabee Hearts Quarantine

Ah yes, the Arkansas governor was confronted this weekend about comments he made way back when about AIDS, way back to 1992 where he said about AIDS "we need to take steps that would isolate the carriers of this plague." He also said that celebrities like Liz Taylor and Madonna pony up their millions to fund AIDS projects, I am assuming because celebrities push the homosexual agenda and force out children to have sex. Now of course he tries to spin this to clear himself of any wrong doing because he says at the time "There was still to much confusion about HIV transmission in those early years." Of course my favorite quote in this link is "My concern was for safety first and political correctness last." PC, that little thing that prevents movement conservatives from calling minorities, homosexuals and other people they don't like what they really want to, but I will get on that in another post. Too much confusion? In 1992? What's the confusion? I also find it frightening that in the same questionnaire he said about homosexuality that he felt it's an "aberrant, unnatural, and sinful lifestyle and we no know it can pose a dangerous health risk." A bit of a connection here? a few years before '92 lots of social conservatives felt that AIDS was strictly a gay disease, hence Ronald Reagans refusal to do anything about while he was in office and alot of social conservative politicians used, as they do today, homosexuality as  vote grabber. I suspect that what ole Huckabee was doing was using hardline tactics to do something about the homosexual agenda.

And I came across this today. An old article about Huckabbe from '98 while he was governor responding to a school shooting in a baptist church. Here he blends anti-government and religion into something he wants this country to be, a theocracy.
