What Separation?

Our Rev. Gov. has signed a proclamation to help with our current drought.

Huckabee, a Baptist minister, said the lack of rain that has led to wildfires and imperiled local water supplies around the state "serves as a poignant reminder of our complete reliance on God for even the most basic necessities of life."

"I, Mike Huckabee, acting under the authority vested in me as governor ..., call upon the people of our state to pray for rain," the proclamation said.

Or what? We'll burn in the everlasting hellfire of eternal damnation?

Not that I necessarily disagree with the expressed sentiment mind you. But I do question whether it was appropriate to express it in such an official capacity.

Especially when one is considering a run for the presidency.

I think he actually signed it yesterday. Guess it worked, eh?

What was the old Tanya Tucker song? "Lizzie & The rainman" ?
