In the wake of the Supreme Court decision that ruled in favor of the The Westboro Baptist Church’s free speech rights, Michael Medved noted that Fred Phelps, the leader of the cult, is a Dem. This prompted a lib to email Medved and accuse him of lying.
In fact, as Medved explains, Phelps has run for office five times as a Democrat.

I know a few Libs who actively cheer for Phelps. One of my former friends, who campaigned for Obama, bragged about Phelps to me a couple months after I returned from deployment. I was sort of done with him after that. Democrats all know that Phelps is a Democrat. He’s their attack dog. That’s why they’re constantly invoking him to gloat about his deeds at military funerals.

Okay, Ed…I’ll make it easy for you. Here are Huckabee’s words – (what he said, not what we wish he said):
–”You know Michael, one of the things that’s troubling is that people see a Natalie Portman or some other Hollywood starlet who boasts of, ‘Hey look, you know, we’re having children, we’re not married, but we’re having these children, and they’re doing just fine.’ But there aren’t really a lot of single moms out there who are making millions of dollars every year for being in a movie.”
–”Most single moms are very poor, uneducated, can’t get a job, and if it weren’t for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death and never have health care. And that’s the story that we’re not seeing.”
–”You know, right now, 75 percent of black kids in this country are born out of wedlock. 61 percent of Hispanic kids — across the board, 41 percent of all live births in America are out of wedlock births. And the cost of that is simply staggering.”
UPDATE: Huckabee has posted the following response to the situation on the Huck Pac website:
In a recent media interview about my new book, A Simple Government, I discussed the first chapter, “The Most Important Form of Government Is a Father, Mother, and Children.” I was asked about Oscar-winner Natalie Portman’s out-of-wedlock pregnancy. Natalie is an extraordinary actor, very deserving of her recent Oscar and I am glad she will marry her baby’s father. However, contrary to what the Hollywood media reported, I did not “slam” or “attack” Natalie Portman, nor did I criticize the hardworking single mothers in our country. My comments were about the statistical reality that most single moms are very poor, under-educated, can’t get a job, and if it weren’t for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death. That’s the story that we’re not seeing, and it’s unfortunate that society often glorifies and glamorizes the idea of having children out of wedlock.
You show me the part where he urged her to abort her baby. Show me where he said that “carrying the baby is atrocious.”
I’ll wait.
