In an interview with beliefnettoday, Mike Huckabee was asked to explain his recent suggestion that the Constitution be amended to reflect God’s standards. His reply starts off sounding a lot like what Chris Pyle, a longtime Huckabee aide, suggestedto me yesterday, focused on marriage and the life of the unborn. But then he launched this whopper:
Well, I don’t think that’s a radical view to say we’re going to affirm marriage. I think the radical view is to say that we’re going to change the definition of marriage so that it can mean two men, two women, a man and three women, a man and a child, a man and animal. Again, once we change the definition, the door is open to change it again. I think the radical position is to make a change in what’s been historic.
Is this his idea of damage control?
