Have you all heard about this hubbub about Mike Huckbee's Xmas ad that has a cross over his shoulder that some people assert is intended to be a subliminal message regarding Huckabee's faith?

I haven't been able to figure out who it is that's pissed off about this. Is it the Christians, because they think Huck is trying to take a "holier than thou" (literally) approach? Candidates arguing amongst themselves as to who will most have their faith influence their policies? Boy, that's great news for America.
Or is the non-religious crowd who are pissed because there's a subtle reference to religion? Odd that this would cause such an uproar, because for an example of a not-so-subtle reference to religion, please consult [B]everything that Mike Huckabee has ever said on the campaign trail[/B]. The guy has no concept of the separation of church and state and has literally called to "take the nation back for Christ." I'm surprised he didn't put an [B]actual [/B]cross in his ad, as that would be entirely consistent with his platform...
