Atheist Newdow PWNs Fox News' Cavuto over Huckabee Cross Ad?

As nice as it was to see Fox News host Neil Cavuto even question the recent political ad from Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee in which the image of a cross floats behind the head of the former Baptist Minister as he talks about Jesus, I quickly found it was all just an opportunity to invite on atheist Michael Newdow and strawman Newdow's arguments. In these clips from the December 18 Fox News broadcast, I show how Michael Newdow PWNs Neil Cavuto as Cavuto shows his bias by attacking Newdow and failing to address Newdow's argument.

And, speaking of bias, this video is another of DOZENS of examples you can find on my Fox News Bias playlist at: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D

You would think the last thing jesus would want to see is a cross.

I agree. They say "oh yeah, democracy is god's plan!" Yet when people vote in favor of gay marriage, abortions, etc, then they start saying it's not god's will.

The Constitution of the United States of America. Read it.

Fun fact Pwnage came from a StarCraft 1 map that was misspelled.(

O is next to the P on keyboard) but became a staple in ladder games thus cementing the phrase into internet history.

I wouldn't say PWNed - more of a TKO.

As for the 2nd question - It's not wrong for a candidate to make references to Jesus / show a cross in political ads - it's an intrinsic part of their identity. Otherwise you can argue that an ad about a candidate's Black upbringing is exclusionary to other races. However is it shameless pandering that flies in the faith of the humility which is supposedly implicit in "religion"? Abso-expletive-lutely.

Why did he let Cavuto get away with claiming that all 43 presidents have been Christians? Cavuto is ignorant of US history. From my take, it wasn't until Andrew Jackson, our 7th president, that we had our first real Christian president. And...apparently he was so quiet about it, so as not to display or advertise his religion, that he hid his Bible and snuck to church on Sunday (read his biography American Lion). After him were many non-Christian presidents, including Lincoln.

I thought the division between religion and State was a HUGE deal for Americans, constitutional even.

If so why wasn't he getting slammed for obviously highlighting religious aspects of his politics?

@realnameunknown2011 I'm sorry I took your thunder. I didn't realize man, really sorry about that. Would you like me to delete this statement?

@PAROHO9 Well John Adams was actually unitarian. Which denies the trinity, believes jesus was just a regular man but wise one and believed that one should worry about doing gods work than worrying what others were believing.
