5 reasons why Mike Huckabee is ludicrous
January 10th, 2008 by Benjamin
1. Is this a joke?
2. Get your hands off me, you damned dirty ape
Huckabee was one of three GOP candidates who raised their hand during Thursday’s debate when asked if they don’t believe in evolution the development of organisms and species from a primitive state [sic].
[..] Huckabee said if given a chance to elaborate on the question from MSNBC moderator Chris Matthews, he would have responded: “If you want to believe that you and your family came from apes, I’ll accept that….I believe there was a creative process.”

3. Let’s call it a cavalier attitude
LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas — In a desperate and cynical attempt to get some attention for his utterly forgotten campaign for the GOP nomination, former Governor Mike Huckabee pulled a Jim Webb on his own son and sent young David Huckabee through airport security with a LOADED HANDGUN.
The Glock .40-caliber was “loaded with eight rounds” and concealed in David Huckabee’s briefcase, which he cunningly put through the X-Ray machine.

[…] One of his sons was involved in the hanging of a stray dog at a Boy Scout camp in 1998. The incident led to the dismissal of David Huckabee, then 17, from his job as a counselor at Camp Pioneer in Hatfield, Ark. It also prompted the local prosecuting attorney— bombarded with complaints generated by a national animal-rights group—to write a letter to the Arkansas state police seeking help investigating whether David and another teenager had violated state animal-cruelty laws. The state police never granted the request, and no charges were ever filed. But John Bailey, then the director of Arkansas’s state police, tells NEWSWEEK that Governor Huckabee’s chief of staff and personal lawyer both leaned on him to write a letter officially denying the local prosecutor’s request.

On Friday Union Advisory Board President David Huckabee paid $62.50 in city fees for two companies he owns and operates in Jonesboro. […] Huckabee, a senior political science and speech communications major of Little Rock, paid the $62.50 fine after receiving a notice from the Jonesboro City Collector’s office. Huckabee paid the fine using 6,250 pennies, which took more than 45 minutes to process.

4. Hamburglar-chic? So 1988, darling
5. Even Coulter thinks he’s stupid
As far as I can tell, it’s mostly secular liberals swooning over Huckabee. Liberals adore Huckabee because he fits their image of what an evangelical should be: stupid and easily led.

Wow. Just wow. I think I want to move to France… the fact that he was/is being seriously considered is so scary.

As a life long democrat who wants Hillary Clinton to win. I encourage as many Republicans to caucaus and vote for this stupid twat so as to make it easier for Bill to get back to banging interns.

Well, thank God David Huckabee isn’t the one running, I guess.
Since when did put any stock in Ann Coulter’s assesment of human character?

I live in merry ‘lil England so the election has virtually no ‘bearing’ on my life. That said: after seeing the chuck norris video (and knowing nothing else about him) he would have my vote.
My reasoning for this is because he might be almost as funny as bush and that will make life so much easier for comedians across the globe.

yea……well as long as its not this guy, obamma, clinton, or mccain i don’t care whose president.
seriously, this guys a joke, obamma’s a sleeper cell terrorist agent, clintons a power hungry dike, and mccain’s a crook who bought 1,250,000$ worth of IT work from the company i work for declared bankruptcy, paid 1/8 of what he owed and the next day he was not just no longer bankrupt but also rich.

In France, we can see this campaign with some short ‘trailer’ …
Mike Huckabee…?!!! C.Norris .. approved…LOL … what a big joke… but it’s not so stupid … GW Bush won by using very special argument (terror, terrorism, religion …) .. but what about USA’s futur ???
Hillary vs obamma : battle for the election..ok… but this is not the ‘real life’ .. what’s waiting for you AFTER election ?
I wish you a good next election … i’ll not easy to choose….

There is no choice here, they are all the same. We need a Libertarian choice.
Might as well write in “none of the above” if it is down to Hillary and McCain

i’m just following the regular system of voting for a political party by doing what many(elderly) people do and voting for “the people who seem nice”; not that i think he’s nice, it’s just that h is video made me laugh, incompetence makes me do that(like bush). But hey, we didn’t even vote for the person leading our country so how can I complain.
Here is a really scary fact: no one other than a Bush or a Clinton has lead America since 1988! can this be continued (sorry abou spelling im very,very,very drunk)

The real scary thing is that people seem to have forgotten the important questions to ask. When Romny was being asked about his religion, he kept reminding us how devoted to his faith he was. That’s great for his personal belief system. What’s the important question? Which comes first, your religion, or the United States Constitution? I want someone in office who would write off his own grandmother if it meant defending civil rights and individual liberty. Huckaby obviously cares more for his personal belief system than he does about the safety and freedom of the citizens of the country he proposes to represent in office. No. This should not be. Lets get all the bumblefucks out of office who hold the belief that the bill of rights and the constitution are “quaint.”

What do you mean, life insurance? Are you trying to sell this to me? I will just have my family deal with it. I will not buy something that I will never get to enjoy! So stop marketing with a non-working link.
