Amend the What? Why?

Tagged:  

Apparently, Mike Huckabee, wants to amend the Constitution. That's what he told the Primary voters in Michigan.

Alright. We do not amend the Constitution so that "it's in God's standards." Who defines God's standards? The very fact that Mike Huckabee brings that up in the middle of a presidential primary race as a reason people should vote for him scares me to death.

I'm not opposed, of course, to God's standards. I and others argue God's standards here. What I am against, what scares me, is that a politician could presume to be so certain about what God's standards are that he would even suggest the Constitution too "meet those standards."

It's really time to step back, take a breath and remember what kind of government/society we live in. The Constitution stays. And Mike Huckabee can go back to preaching to his fellow Baptists, using the freedom that Constitution gives him.
