Did You Hear the One About the Candidate…

who said that abortions were "like a holocaust"?

who encouraged the early release of a convicted rapist who then went on the rape and murder again?

Guess who it is? Mike Huckabee. The same man who is also against same-sex marriage (big surprise there) and comprehensive sexuality education. (Somehow I don’t think that this is the candidate for me - cue the shock and awe.)

Here’s the thing. I believe that everyone is entitled to have their religious values. However, religion and theology cannot dictate our politics. It is dangerous and unfair to the rest of the country who may not embrace the same faith.

Meanwhile, back on the book tour, Alex Elliot over at Formula Fed and Flexible Parenting has a review of Third Base... and an interview with me. Check it out!

What do you think?
