Giving Thanks

Tomorrow our house will be full of family for the first time since Christmas. And we will be celebrating with members of our extended family for the first time. My daughter-in-law's parents and brothers are joining us. And we'll all be under the same roof which is probably the biggest blessing of having a big house. Breakfast, lunch and dinners filled with the fellowship of those who love each other and have so much to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving to you.

Mike Huckabee

I don't know about you, but I don't trust Mike Huckabee. I listened to part of his interview (the transcript is here) with Hugh Hewitt last night and I was struck by his talking around some of the questions instead of giving straight answers. I felt like he was already running for the nomination for 2012 and trying not to give answers that might come back to haunt him. I'm irritated by the way he toots his own horn and he seems a little smarmy. I am also troubled by his negative comments about Mitt Romney that are in his new book, Do the Right Thing. I speculate that he's trying to take Romney out before 2012. I also have questions about whether he is a true conservative. Romney was my guy and I'm an evangelical Christian. I just had too many questions about Huckabee's sincerity. I don't believe I could ever support him
