Huck asks in this Sunday’s New York Times Magazine,\u00a0“Don’t Mormons believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?”<\/a><\/p>\n
No word yet on whether the former Arkansas governor asked if the Jews killed Jesus or if Catholics pray to Mary as a god<\/p>\n
When your campaign is in trouble, it is better to focus on the trouble and fix, not set it ablaze.<\/p>\n
If asked about this I hope Governor Romney responds that “It is unfortunate that Governor Huckabee wants to turn a Republican primary into a theological shout down, but\u00a0I won’t be participating.\u00a0 Questions about Mormon doctrine can be addressed to Church officials.\u00a0 I’m not sure what kind of endorsement he is seeking with that sort of remark, but I am content to get the endorsement of the editors of The National Review.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hugh,<\/p>\n
With all due respect, your most recent post on Huckabee<\/a> crosses the line. To accuse him of being an anti-Semite and an anti-Catholic bigot merely because he questions precisely what EVERY orthodox theologian in conservative seminaries in America questions about Mormonism is really grasping. You owe Governor Huckabee an apology and a public retraction on your blog should be forthcoming.<\/p>\n
You are one of the finest minds in the Salem family. Your enthusiasm for Romney, however, has clouded your judgment. Endorse Romney, but be fair to the other candidates. My hope is that, upon careful review, you will see just how unfair and unfounded many of your most recent posts on Huckabee have been. You are sounding more like the MSM than you are the objective voice of reason I have been so accustomed to turning to.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
