In an appearance on Faux News, Mike Huckabee defended Rick Warren (surprise!). I'm not sure what the news value is on this front, but it certainly underscores the close relationships between gay-hating leaders in the winger evangelical community.
"Well it's ridiculous for people to be upset at Rick Warren. He is one of the most influential spiritual leaders of this generation. I have known Rick for over 30 years. We were actually in seminary together in Fort Worth, Texas, back in the mid-1970s. He is today what he has always been, and that is a humble, gracious, thoughtful, very intellectually capable person."
