The story does not say whether doves from Heaven alighted on his shoulders during the press conference.

Mike Huckabee, taking questions from reporters after a town hall meeting here, responded to the torrent of criticism that Rush Limbaugh unleashed during his broadcast yesterday by turning the other cheek — and then heaping on the praise.

Stung by an anonymous Huckabee supporter’s comments to Marc Ambinder that derided the influential talker as taking his cues from the “D.C./Manhattan chattering class,” Limbaugh used his Friday show to defend himself.

Questioned why the talk show host would attack him, Huckabee shrugged.

“Ask him. I don’t know. … All I can do is hope that Rush loves me as much as I love Rush.”

And then a single tear meandered down his cheek and fell onto the upturned face of a crippled child who threw aside his crude wooden crutches and danced for joy.

That’d be the crippled boy who, of course, could have been healed by embyonic stem cells had Huckabee not governed so hard against them while taking tens of thousands of dollars from a company heavily involved in research on the same type of cells. Oopsie.

    Sporting you say, Redskins on the mind maybe?

    1st:
    Great articles on Fred and top-notch reasoning on why he is your choice, mine too!

    The game change tonight, very much worth it for NBC,
    if the redskins win they should make the playoffs thanks to Philly, it all comes down to HEART tonight, and with the way the rest of the NFC is playing right now I enjoy our chances in the playoffs too.
    Make it happen tonight, and the redskins will be sporting the name, play-off team.
    Huckabee-who cares…what he is sporting which should be a clinton mask as he could be a lost twin when it comes to ideas…
