Gov. Huckabee Comments On Jamie Lynn Spears Pregnancy

Former Arkansas governor and current Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has weighed in on the news that Britney Spears’ teenage sister is pregnant. “It’s a tragedy when a 16-year-old who is not really prepared for all the responsibilities of adult life is going to be now faced with all the responsibilities of honest-to-goodness adult life. I respect it,” the Baptist minister said. “Apparently, she’s going to have the child and I think that is the right decision, a good decision, and I respect that and appreciate it. I hope it is not an encouragement to other 16-year-olds who think that is the best course of action. But at the same time I’m not going to condemn her. There’ll be plenty of people in line to do that and I always look for the shortest lines. I just hope that she will make another right decision and that’s to give that child all the love and kindness and care that she can.”
