I was originally all Fred Thompson.

But Ron Paul keeps looking better and better.

What,

You wrote: The only reason he [Paul} doesn't have a chance is because people (NEWS) keep saying he doesn't have a chance.

No, he doesn't have a chance because very few republicans agree with his message.

So far as Paul raising a lot of money, where did the money come from? Not from the kind of people he needs to win the Republican nomination, not from mainstream Republicans.

So far as Huck once wanting to isolate all those diagnosed with AIDS, had this action been taken years ago many lives would have been saved. Reasonable minds will haqve no trouble seeing this is true.

So far as Huck saying homosexual behavior is immoral, he is a Bible believing Christian. All Bible believing Christians believe the same thing. If that is the worst Huck's critics can say about him, that he is a Bible believing Christian, his critics are in trouble.

Hey Christian person. Please ask us all here who is pro abortion. You will find none. Why? Because there is none on this board. There is a huge difference between being pro choice and pro abortion. Pro abortion makes no sense. One day you might understand.

WT,

Maybe I should have said "pro-abortion rights." I don't care for the term "pro-choice." It seems just a little too nice to refer to what is most often a very selfish, cruel, and grisly act.

What-A-Coincidence

"A modern politician advocating that a government actually quarantine its own population suffering from AIDS, or any disease, in colonies reminiscent of the British Empire's leper colonies. This was NOT in the 80s, this was in 1992 when it was Well Known the syndrome could not be transmitted in everyday life. Huckabee better have a really good excuse for his completely inhumane and un-Christian words. They are absolutely outrageous, and I don't believe there are any true evangelicals who could look at his words and contend he is actually man of compassion, or God for that matter. "

Mike Huckabee says:

In the late 80’s and early 90’s we were still learning about the virus that causes AIDS. My concern, as a Senate candidate at the time, was to deal with the virus using the same public health protocols that medical science and public health professionals would use with any infectious disease.

Before a disease can be cured and contained we need to know exactly how and with near certainty what level of contact transmits the disease. There was still too much confusion about HIV transmission in those early years. Recall that in 1991, Kimberly Bergalis testified in front of Congress after contracting HIV from her dentist, and that summer a study was published showing that HIV was transmitted through breastmilk more easily than had been thought. But the federal government provided some guidelines: Also in 1991 the Centers for Disease Control recommended restrictions on the practice of HIV-positive health care workers.

At the time, there was widespread concern over modes of transmission and the possibility of epidemic. In the absence of conclusive data, my focus was on efforts to limit the exposure of the virus, following traditional medical practices developed from our public health experience and medical science in dealing with tuberculosis and other infectious diseases.

We now know that the virus that causes AIDS is spread differently, with a lower level of contact than with TB. But looking back almost 20 years, my concern was the uncertain risk to the general population – if we got it wrong, many people would die needlessly. My concern was safety first, political correctness last.

My administration will be the first to have an overarching strategy for dealing with HIV and AIDS here in the United States, with a partnership between the public and private sectors that will provide necessary financing and a realistic path toward our goals. We must prevent new infections and provide more accessible care. We must do everything possible to transform the promise of a vaccine and a cure into reality.

Furthermore, I am proud that the United States has led the global battle against HIV/ AIDS. We have both a strategic interest as the world's only superpower and a moral obligation as the world's richest country to continue to do so until this scourge is a memory.

I supported the current Administration’s proposal to double our initial commitment from $15 billion to $30 billion over the next five years for the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). PEPFAR has already done an extraordinary amount of good, by providing drugs for over a million people and care for four-and-a-half million people, but it expires in 2008 and must be reauthorized. I support an increase in our commitment to the Global Fund. Through PEPFAR and the Global Fund, we can do our fair share to meet the Millennium Development Goals we affirmed in 2000, which include universal access to HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, and care.

he sounds very Clintonesque

That might be a good thing. Clinton won the presidency - twice.

On the other hand, Ron Paul sounds like that grouchy old man in every neighborhood who is always yelling at the kids to, "STAY OFF OF MY LAWN!"
