Mike Huckabee – the gift that keeps on giving.


Just when I think he can’t get any crazier, he proves me wrong. Via TPM’s Election Central, the Huckster had the following to say during an interview with Belief.net, a wingnut religious website (in other words, Huck’s peeps):

QUESTIONER: Is it your goal to bring the Constitution into strict conformity with the Bible? Some people would consider that a kind of dangerous undertaking, particularly given the variety of biblical interpretations.

HUCKABEE: Well, I don’t think that’s a radical view to say we’re going to affirm marriage. I think the radical view is to say that we’re going to change the definition of marriage so that it can mean two men, two women, a man and three women, a man and a child, a man and animal. Again, once we change the definition, the door is open to change it again. I think the radical position is to make a change in what’s been historic.

With all due respect sir, you are a fucking squirrel.

That slippery slope argument kills me. What do you think his position would have been on women getting the vote had he been around back then?

Huck: "...what's next? Monkeys? Dogs?..."

I see the notion of consent is is still eluding these paragons of virtue.

I'm sorry...anyone who doesn't understand consent should be kept well away from children, animals, houseplants and most household appliances.

"...a man and a child, a man and animal..."

Okay, the guy is now officially insane. Screw that whole "amiable" populist crap — the guy is well and truly batshit fucking crazy if he subscribes to this sort of nonsense with the slightest degree of seriousness.

a man and an animal

Oh good. Since Rick Santorum is no longer in the Senate, surely the American federal government needs someone who will address the critical issue of man on dog sex.

Praise God! The Huckster is in a statistical dead heat in South Carolina with St. John McCain, according to the latest MasonDixon poll. St. John- 27%; Huckster -25%.

Meanwhile, word apparently has spread along South Carolina's telephone lines that St. John committed treason while a prisoner of war in Vietnam AND IS A COMMUNIST as evidenced by his support for opening up trade with Vietnam! (South Carolina is low tech; I don't think the Internet Tubes have gotten that far South yet, hence the reliance upon the telephone.)

I think the Huckster is a scream and the best thing that ever could happen to the GOP.

I think he's just scared the animal will turn him down.

I think the headline on a gay blog today said it all: Huckabestiality.

But I'd just like to add...glory glory Jebesus...PLEASE let him win!!

*shh*...You'll jinx it.

*ahem*...Republicans just aren't ready for a visionary like Huckabee. The nation needs a north-eastern conservative to maintain vital coastal links to the outside world.

I'm sure the Dems are stamping millions of "I Like Mike" buttons as we speak.
