\nWhen the Christian Right Disrobes … HUCKABEE
\nAppears!<\/span><\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

The Huckster’s sudden rise in the polls is no
\naccident. It can be traced back to his CFR connection via the Council for
\nNational Policy.<\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

As the Christian Right disrobes,
\nsomething very un-Christian is beginning to appear beneath the dropping
\ngarments.<\/p>\n

Some leaders of that movement have apparently shed every last vestige of
\nconservative principle in making their choice of which GOP presidential
\ncandidate to shower with their much-desired endorsements.<\/p>\n

According to an article in the Washington Times of November 8, 2007, Ralph Z.
\nHallow reports that Robert Wildmon endorses Huckabee, Paul Weyrich endorses
\nRomney – and Pat Robertson endorsed, of all candidates, the socially liberal
\nand pro-abortion Rudolph Giuliani.<\/p>\n

Their only concern appears to be “Who can beat Hillary?” In the
\nprocess, we are told, long-standing religious-right principles like a stance
\nagainst abortion are thrown into the hamper like dirty underwear.<\/p>\n

It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not only the stance against abortion that is being abandoned. The
\nreligious right once prided itself of being a staunch defender of US
\nsovereignty. How can that be squared with endorsing McCain, who would allow
\nillegal aliens a fast-track way to US citizenship, or Huckabee, who has
\nrecently teamed up with Council on Foreign Relations president Richard N. Haass
\nas foreign policy advisor?<\/p>\n

At least pursuant to a celebrated speech Haass delivered in 2003 at the
\nBrooking Institution, he does not think that national sovereignty should be
\nallowed to stand in the way of globalist “integration.”<\/p>\n

Are you a Christian who opposes plans to “integrate” the United
\nStates with Mexico and Canada? Well, Mike Huckabee should not be your choice.
\nHis close cooperation with the president of the Council n Foreign Relations
\nshould speak for itself.<\/p>\n

Last time I checked, religious right members were opposed to the curtailing of
\nUS sovereignty. Sure, Huck toes the line and says he wants to protect US
\nsovereignty – but his foreign policy advisor certainly doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t instill much
\nconfidence in the purity of his intentions. The CFR is an organization whose
\nmembers have produced a plethora of books, articles, and other writings
\nsupporting a North American Union (NAU), for example. (Of course,
\npseudo-conservative radio talk show host Michael Bed-wet has told us that there
\nare no plans for such a NAU and that all who say otherwise are just crazy – so
\nit must be true.)<\/p>\n

Here is a list of religious right leaders who have endorsed Huckabee, with
\ndates: Links to some of the endorsement articles can be viewed here<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

* Baptist leader Rick Scarborough (Endorsement Article) Rick is founder and
\nPresident of American Vision. A pro-family organization endorsed by men like
\nDr. D. James Kennedy.
\n* Don Wildmon founder\/ former President of AFA, the American Family
\nAssociation(Endorsement Article) (11-08)
\n* Randy Alcorn, Christian Author (Endorsement Article) strong pro-life advocate
\n(11-06)
\n* Justin Taylor of Between Two Worlds – (Joint Endorsement Article) (10-25)
\n* Joe Carter of Evangelical Outpost (10-25)
\n* Matthew Anderson, Mere Orthodoxy (10-25)
\n* Chuck Norris (Endorsement Article) (11-19)
\n* Janet Folger of Faith to Action (Endorsement Article) (10-01)
\n* Jack Graham of Preston Wood Baptist Church, Plano, TX (Video 11\/4\/07)
\n* James Robison, Life Outreach International (Endorsement Article) (05-04)
\n* Keith Butler, Pastor – Word of Faith International Christian Center in
\nMichigan (11-13)
\n* Matthew Staver, Founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel (11-27)
\n* Dr. James T. Draper Jr. ” Colleyville, Tex. (11-27)
\n* Dr. Jerry Vines ” Woodstock, Ga. (11-09)
\n* Dr. Daniel L. Akin ” Wake Forest, N.C. (11-28)
\n* Dr. Jay Strack ” Orlando, Fla. (11-10)
\n* Dr. Billy McCormack ” Shreveport, La. (11-10)
\n* Stephen Strang, publisher of Charisma, Christian Life, New Woman, New Man
\nMagazines (Magazine Endorsement) (12-01)
\n* Jerry Cox, President of Arkansas Family Council ” Little Rock, Ark.
\n(11-11)
\n* Jim Pfaff, President and CEO of Colorado Family Action ” Castle Rock,
\nCol. (11-12)
\n* Kelly Shackelford, President of Free Market Foundation ” Plano, Tex.
\n(12-23)
\n* Phil Burress, President of Citizens for Community Values ” Ohio (11-12)<\/p>\n

Looks like an impressive list, doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t it? The only problem is, they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re all
\nfrom the same organization (the “Arlingotn Group”), and even though
\nthe leader, Jim Dobson, hasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t publicly jumped on the bandwagon yet, this is
\nnot so much the opinion of many individual diverse religious leaders as it is
\none single neocon-driven group in concerted action – as evidenced by the close
\ntemporal proximity of the endorsements.<\/p>\n

As a Christian, how do you make up your mind about a presidential candidate? By
\nblindly following the leaders of religious organizations you may belong to or
\nwhich you may respect – or by making your own judgments and decisions?<\/p>\n

Has your study of Bible doctrine enabled you to make such decisions based on your
\nunderstanding of what God wants for you and this world – or are you still a
\nspiritual infant who has to suckle (potentially poisonous) milk from his
\ntheological Fuehrer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s breast?
\nAnother question to ask yourself is this: Has Mike Huckabee\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s tune changed
\nsignificantly from statements he made in his earlier campaign speeches and
\ntelevised debates? Up until October\/November, he had no visible support from
\nanyone.<\/p>\n

Where does this sudden success in the polls come from? If it isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t substantive
\n(i.e., because of what he says in the debates) then other forces must be at
\nwork<\/p>\n

The whole scenario is terribly reminiscent of the sudden rise from complete
\nobscurity of other no-name politicians like Jimmy Carter in 1976 and one
\nWilliam Jefferson Clinton in 1992.<\/p>\n

In today\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s politics, you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t just come out of nowhere with no budget worth
\nmentioning and start making such tremendous headway in polls, getting virtually
\nall publicists who call themselves “conservative” to pull on the same
\nstring for you.<\/p>\n

That just doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t happen spontaneously.<\/p>\n

It used to be that fund raising success was the determinative factor of
\n“winnability” – at least when you listened to the press pundits. Now,
\nsince Ron Paul has trumped everyone in the Republican lineup during the fourth
\nquarter, fund raising success suddenly doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t matter anymore. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not helping
\nRon Paul – and a decided lack of it is not going to keep Huckabee from winning
\nIowa.<\/p>\n

Hmm …<\/p>\n

It is very interesting to note that many of the Huck-endorsing leaders listed
\nabove are members of an influential Christian outfit called the Arlington
\nGroup, which itself is an offshoot of the highly secretive, Bilderberg-like
\n“Council for National Policy” (CNP). The CNP, in turn, bills itself
\nas the American patriot\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s answer to the Council on Foreign Relations.<\/p>\n

Inconveniently, however, a whole slew of the founding members of the CNP were
\nand still are CFR members themselves. How does that make sense? Are they just
\nmoles inside the CFR? If so, one would expect them to immediately advise the Huckster
\nto kick Richard\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s “Haass” off his advisory committee.<\/p>\n

Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t hold your breath.<\/p>\n

Also interesting is that both Dick Cheney and Mitt Romney were invited to the
\nCNP last secret meeting in Salt Lake City. Guess when? Late September of 2007,
\njust weeks before the endorsements started rolling in to Huck\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s campaign. And,
\noh yes, you can only get invited with a 100 percent consensus from all the
\nmembers – so you can see with whom that organization plays ball.<\/p>\n

Haass may eventually be replaced with someone else, but the vile connection is
\nnow established and solidified – and should evoke powerful concerns in every
\nGod, country, and family-loving Christian\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s heart.<\/p>\n

If you are a Christian, pray that God gives you the foresight and wisdom to
\nmake the right choice for America in this primary season – and yes, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s okay
\nto do some research on your own. Just Google “Council for National
\nPolicy” and start reading. (A point of advice, though, is that you should
\nsit down when you do your research. You will not like what you find.)<\/p>\n
