The more I watch the candidates, the more I like Mike Huckabee. In a world of sound bites and botox candidates, he comes across as just a regular schmoe, kinda like me.

I just heard a report on CBS news about a young African girl who was flown to Chicago to have cataract surgery. She and lots of children like her are suffering blindness due to disease carried by mosquitos.
I notice two things in this story. First, this child shouldn't be blind. DDT, used properly, is safe and highly effective in controlling the mosquitos that carry debilitating disease, yet we penalize poor nations that use it to save lives. This shouldn't be so. I also noticed that this young girl was flown to the United States for her surgery. Notice that she didn't go to any nation that has government run healthcare. She would still be on a waiting list there.

God bless.

I took the above photo a few days ago. I showed it to my son. He had no problem telling me what he saw. "It's a horsey, daddy," he said. My son is only two years old. The horse in this picture is in fact a fetus in the sixth month of gestation. She died in an unfortunate miscarriage. The normal gestation period for a horse is 11 months. You will notice that the filly though hairless, is fully formed and unmistakably equine. Now any sane person would not argue over the horsehood of this creature. Unfortunately, there are many out there who do just that when it comes to babies at this point in development. Is this why pro-abortion forces fight tooth and nail to prevent women in abortion clinics from seeing the ultrasounds of their unborn? Is it fear that they may very well see the humanity and vulnerability of the life about to be destroyed?

God bless.

Can you believe the nerve of that Tim Russert? What was he thinking actually asking Hillary Clinton a legitimate question? By golly, she'll have his head for this!
