Huckabee: Stimulus is 'anti-religious'

My man Mike warns us about Barry's Porkulus, and his fear-mongering to get it passed.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee warned supporters Tuesday that the $828 billion stimulus package is “anti-religious.”

In an e-mail that was also posted on his blog ahead of the Senate’s passage, Huckabee wrote: “The dust is settling on the ‘bipartisan’ stimulus bill and one thing is clear: It is anti-religious.”

The former Republican presidential candidate pointed to a provision in both the House and Senate versions banning higher education funds in the bill from being used on a “school or department of divinity.”  This provision was also discussed on EWTN radio.  Any place where students are allowed to acknowledge/practice/learn about faith would NOT receive federal funds.

“You would think the ACLU drafted this bill,” Huckabee said. “For all of the talk about bipartisanship, this Congress is blatantly liberal.”

“Emily’s List, radical environmental groups, etc. all have a seat at the decision making table in Washington these days,” he continued. “Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are in charge and they are working with an equally ‘progressive’ President Obama (remember his voting record is more liberal than Ted Kennedy!).”

Any place where students are allowed to acknowledge/practice/learn about faith would NOT receive federal funds.--so that means most "Catholic" schools will still get federal money, right?

Thanks for posting this clip. I hope I can sleep at night knowing that even if my home is worthless, I have another playground castle I can go live in.

"Porkulus" LOL!
