After defending Kentucky clerk Kim Davis’ refusal to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) on Wednesday would not say whether a Muslim flight attendant should be able to deny alcohol to passengers on a flight.
CNN’s Alisyn Camerota asked Huckabee about Charee Stanley, a flight attendant for ExpressJet who was suspended for refusing to serve alcohol. She said it violated her religious beliefs.
“Historically we have made accommodations for people with religious convictions,” Huckabee said when asked if he Stanley has the right to refuse to serve alcohol.
“You’ve seen it in Michigan where they spent $25,000 providing foot baths for Muslims students,” he said, adding that the U.S. gave prayer mats to prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay prison.
When asked again if he supports Stanley’s refusal to serve alcohol, Huckabee said, “I think people try to make accommodations wherever they can.”
“Sometimes maybe it can’t be done, but in this case there was no attempt to make an accommodation to Kim Davis,” he said.

As far as Huckabee is concerned- religious freedom only applies to White Evangelical Christians.
of course he won’t. Because the real game here is special rights for people who think and believe like Mike Huckabee. 21st century Jim Crow.

I believe everyone should bathe their feet a lot more often than they do.
It brings me great comfort and joy to see Huckabee going down so miserably this time around.
