Huckabee has the Christmas spirit

Do you all remember the woman that gave Mike Huckabee the wedding ring in lieu of money while he was on the campaign trail?

It took him a year to find her and he had her on his show tonight. When he asked her how she could give up her wedding ring, she said that she only had $40 and her husband didn’t want to give it up because that was all they had to last until payday in 2 weeks. Her ring was all she had of monetary value and she wanted to donate to a cause she really believed in.

Huckabee’s wife returned her simple gold band to her and then the Huckabee’s gave her an envelope containing $1000. Huckabee said he hoped that the money would help with Christmas.

That is the true Christmas spirit. This poor woman gave more than she had to give and it came back to her plus a lot more.

Way to go Huckabee!

    Getting the amount you give to someone published is a reward unto itself.

    But, the liberal media gets us coming and going; so that if you only give in private they continue to push the idea of stingy capitalists, but if you do it publicly, they call you a preachy hypocrite.

    I’m fed up with the double standard, so thanks for the touching story!

    I saw that show too Michelle. It was great to see a politician actually give back and not just take.
