Too Extreme To Govern?
 

“Creating one problem that is horrible — let nobody be misled, a 10-year-old girl being raped is horrible,“ Huckabee said in an interview on CNN’s "State of the Union” Sunday. “But does it solve a problem by taking the life of an innocent child? And that’s really the issue.”

Huckabee was asked about the 11 year old girl in Paraguay that gave birth after being raped by her grandfather. Huckabee would not have changed anything about that! Is that the kind of extremist leadership the country needs? Should this man even be in contention for President of the USA?

How many of the Political Forum believe that a 10 year old girl raped by her grandfather should be forced to have the baby as this one did in Paraguay?

I honestly am not quite sure how I feel about the general problem and am only posting because you are doing what is done so much on here and is extremely detremental to any discussion and seems to be a tactic rather than an opinion.

You present a false dilemma, and this strikes me as being very unfair. There are certain on here who make this a habit especially if the discussion is on race, guns, etc. It is not taking part in a discussion..it is a tactic.

That is a very very dishonest way to discuss an issue

A false dilemma? No, this was exactly what happened and exactly how Huckabee responded.

Nothing unfair.

This was you question to be answered...


"How many of the Political Forum believe that a 10 year old girl raped by her grandfather should be forced to have the baby as this one did in Paraguay?"


Whether you are able to understand or not, that is a false dilemma.

The ISSUE you avoid is that of excluding rape from abortion but instead of addressing that, you present ONE single situation as if that was discussion.

It is not. If you wish to discuss rape as relates to abortion, that is a fair subject to talk about, but in a mature way and not like this.

Do you think the answer to the question you ask ends any discussion ? That seems to be how some one to discuss things. World, is not that simple...you may wish it that way...but there are differing opinions and feelings on issues. Presenting in a one sentence is a FALSE DILEMMA. It is an old tactic to try and end the conversation and say "boom". In the grown up world it is not like that.

If you have an opinion on rape as relates to abortion, present it like an adult.

IF you want to discuss, TOO EXTREME TO GOVERN.......

THEN, make your point on the definition of extreme. If you feel this rape verus abortion makes someone extreme, you eliminate a lot of folks and then we can go on and find out what you think of judgement on use of an insecure server to be Secy of State in violation of your promise not to do that...that is extreme behavior, I think.

Lots of items to discuss.

IF, as I suspect, you simply look at headlines in order to berate someone on 'the other side" then you have my sympathy because you have stunted your knowledge a lot.

Not sure which it is.......so you decide and post

We now know Huckabee's real position on abortion in the case of rape - even that of a 10 year old girl - and his viewpoint is abhorrent!

If this man got the office of President, he do everything in his power to do away with legal abortions.

His statement will be his biggest downfall and will be used against him over and over.

I assume you know he is not the only one who feels that way, but I find violation of the law more abhorrent. I have respect for those who religious beliefs make abortion itself abhorrent, but you obviously cannot see that.

If you cannot or will not answer the question set forth - be quiet and leave the forum.

Huckabee is also the one that said he would use the FBI and National Guard to stop abortions, which by the way is a legal procedure in all 50 states. How can threatening to use military tactics to stop a legal procedure not be considered a war or women?

Knowing who you are, your commanding me to leave has inspired me. I will stay as long as it takes now.

If you refer back to my original response, I said....

"I honestly am not quite sure how I feel about the general problem and am only posting because you are doing what is done so much on here and is extremely detremental to any discussion and seems to be a tactic rather than an opinion."

That was a pretty direct answer to an insincere, mean spirited and overall, nonsensical post.

I think when you and your allies, do this, you know very well asking questions like that is meant as a tactic, and not a discussion.

Like I said, I only posted because the question was so mean spirited and insincere and insensitive to those who do not believe in abortion.

Your compassion seems to run in funny directions. But since you commanded me to leave, I will stay and discuss it as long as you like

Your personal attacks on Huckabee are legion on here and not unexpected.

I am not a fan of his, but as I have said even about the Ms Clinton, I do not subscribe to character assassination based on poorly presented facts and total lack of feelings..

""If you felt something incredibly powerful at Auschwitz and Birkenau over the 11 million killed worldwide and the 1.5 million killed on those grounds, cannot we feel something extraordinary about 55 million murdered in our own country in the wombs of their mothers?" he asked"

Mike Huckabee Won'''t Rule Out Using Federal Troops To Stop Abortions

That quote came from the same statement that you subscribe to. I think anyway but he did say it, and he feels strongly about it.

Why you simply dismiss anyone who has religion is beyond me. Why do not your professed understanding and feeling for others transcend to others who feel strongly about issues. He has every right to say what he wants.

I am sure you would defend Hillary Clinton's multiple false statement made about her email server but then again, she is on your political team and that team guides your entire life.

The statement about not ruling out the National Guard was just a bad bit of reporting. Huckabee did not give a yes or no answer. However, on the abortion issue of the little girl, he definitely understood what was asked and gave his clear and unthinkable reply.

We are not talking email servers so deflection will not work.

Yes, Huckabee has a right to say what he wants - just as I do. His statement has probably sunk his chances to about zero of getting the nomination.

Now that we both agree that Huckabee has nary a chance of being our next President, I will turn off the iPad.

Huck's outrageous statements, including this one, are just another pathetic attempt to get some attention.

He's never going to be elected to anything and making asinine comments like this one will assure he gets his Fox gig back after he drops out.

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run-away.

Thank you. But, it's kind of juvenile to say you are going away, if you just resume your trolling as another "guest."

And like I said....he's backkkkk!

Guess you need a server with Caller ID. 't'wasn't me.

I am not the only person with very negative views of Huckabee and that he has a zero chance of being the Republican nominee.

Thought you said you were turning off your IPad.

Sure :icon_wink:

He really did. This guy is his twin....really...no kidding....:icon_wink:

The pregnancy should be aborted. Huckabee also runs with Ted Nugent, who isn't very civilized in his personal life. Believe he's had a girl friend who was under age or a cousin also. "Whole Lot of Hypocrisy Goin' On"!

Let's see, that only leaves 16 other candidates. 16 GOP and 0+ from the socialist party. You would be better off, looking for someone to represent your liberalist party.

I did turn it off last night about 9:30, like I said in my post.

I have turned it back on today. Get a grip!

Anyhow, I am done talking about Huckabee. I would continue about him if he has any possible chance of being the Republican nominee but there is no chance of that. Goodbye, Huck.

Yes, of course. Only 16 more candidates to go, huh? And you have how many candidates in the running? Let's see, you have the Sea Hag, which is looking for some costume jewelry to go with her new wardrobe. Orange, the new black. And you have an old broken down socialist, living in the past, hoping for a new USSA to replace the old USSR. And then you have Biden, the only viable candidate that seems reluctant to enter the race. There you have it folks, a force to be reckoned with.

And yet, you feel Huckabee is too extreme to govern. Extreme what? Moral, decent, ethical, wise, experienced??? Too American?
