I usually strive to keep this light an fun, but my goodness, this is just too ironic to ignore, which makes it light and fun! Most people have heard of 666 before, although they may not know what it’s all about. In the book of Revelation (the last book of the Bible), 666 is identified [...]
Okay...I realize that headline is a bit misleading. No, Tyra Banks did not shit herself when she hung with Mike Huckabee. It was Huckabee who shit himself. He was like, "God damn, I knew there were some dumb fuckers in this world, but this bitch ought to get a medal."How dumb is Tyra Banks? Dumb enough to vote for Mike Huckabee.But now onto the shitting part. Apparently, Tyra is prone to accidents of the ill-timed bowel-voiding type. An account from some reporter for Paper Magazine:I arranged to do [the interview] backstage at the tents in the w suite. Just when I start getting comfortable and ready, a group of madmen and madwomen storm in and take possession of the suite because... ready?... Tyra Banks messed herself and needed to change. Now, let's break this down: messing oneself should not happen if you are older that 5 or younger than 90. if it happens and in fact you are older than 5 or younger that 90, then it should be one, single, very unfortunate episode which will boun
I haven't seen anything official yet. I get email updates from Hunter's campaign and haven't received one with an endorsement, so my head hasn't exploded yet. If it is official, I'm staying home election day. If he did endorse Huckabee, it's quite perplexing on why he would. Huckabee will be out of the race within the next month, he's broke, so I cannot see any reasoning (VP, cabinet position) to endorse him. Huckabee has only a few Conservative values. Maybe Hunter thought Huckabee was better than the remaining candidates? I would have to disagree. I'm not endorsing anyone here, but if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to vote, it would be for Romney. I just threw up in my mouth with that statement, but such is the state of the Republican party. I suppose the endorsement could be just because Huckabee was a nice guy, which I don't doubt. It's his policies I disagree with. It looks more and more like a Romney/McCain or McCain/Romney ticket. I'm sure they could beat the Democ
The 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution reads:
“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.”
Mike Huckabee has promised the founder of the Minutemen, Jim Gilchrist, that if elected president he would push for judicial [...]
Republican candidate for president Mike Huckabee knows the truth is coming out. He’s a Satan-loving Sinner and he’s proud to scream and shout: Kiss the Devil! Oh yes. Smooches for Satan too, you know.
What? Whaaaaat? Is that offensive? Offensive to your religious sensibilities? But, wait, gee… wasn’t Mike Huckabee [...]
Read Mike Huckabee’s January 14 statement on the Constitution, his interpretation of God, and his political agenda. Read it very carefully:
I have opponents in this race who do not want to change the Constitution, but I believe it’s a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of [...]
This story tells us the following…A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit by journalists seeking to open executions to more scrutiny, saying there was no guaranteed right to see the whole process, including the strapping-down of the condemned inmate and the insertion of needles.U.S. District Court Judge Susan Webber Wright rejected the journalists' argument the public had a First Amendment right to see every step of an execution in Arkansas.In her ruling issued Monday, Wright also noted that executions have “moved from the public square to inside prison walls,” an area where the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled reporters have no special right to access.…A case before the U.S. Supreme Court focuses on a three-drug cocktail used by 37 states, claiming the condemned could suffer intense pain without being able to cry out. That pending case in effect stopped executions in Arkansas and other states until a ruling by justices.If I could, I would ask Huckabee whether or not he thought this wa
Who would Jesus karate kick to get some money? Does anyone really want to put Mike Huckabee, with his Chuck Norris Comic Book Karate Fundraising Commandos for Christ, in the position of Commander in Chief?
When Mike Huckabee’s fortunes were rising, he attributed his success to a prayer campaign by his supporters and the subsequent intercession of God on his behalf:
There’s only one explanation for it, and it’s not a human one. It’s the same power that helped a little boy with two fish and five loaves feed a crowd [...]
I am very into this election of watching everything I can with learning about candidates. I am independent voter who will be voting for a democrat in the election of 2008. On the democratic side, I am not sure whom I will vote for I like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. I am very interested in both sides of the race with candidates is important to watch. I am surprised by winner of republican Mike Huckabee had less money than most yet he came out ahead. It just shows it takes more than a bunch of money to win at a caucus. The winner for democrats was Barack Obama I am happy for him I have to admit he does have something special about him. Many people have said he reminds them of John F Kennedy. I agree Obama has that something special can’t explain with words but know something is so great about him. Now onto New Hampshire Caucus. - Shop Political T-Shirts and More at CafePress
In the Republican Primary, the 7NEWS/Suffolk University poll shows Romney (30 percent) leading McCain (27 percent), followed by Rudy Giuliani (10 percent), Ron Paul (9 percent), Mike Huckabee (7 percent), Fred Thompson (2 percent) and Duncan Hunter (1 percent). Twelve percent were undecided. Paul is now polling ahead of Iowa Caucus winner Huckabee.

Mike Huckabee's momentum coming out of Iowa has, so far counted for nothing. Not one county convention has voted him a delegate yet. Neither has the so-called Ron Paul Revolution managed to translate itself into the ballot box. After coming in a pathetic 5th place in Iowa, Ron Paul has no delegates from the Wyoming caucuses. Likewise, Rudolph Giuliani has gotten nothing from the Wyoming caucuses so far. Of course, Wyoming is far from New York City, but a presidential candidate can't win just from delegates in New York anyway.
the McCain for President campaign began openly courting the support of John Hagee and his cadre of right wing supporters. McCain announced that he would make a surprise speech before Hagee's pro-Armageddon organization, Christians United for Israel. John Hagee introduced John McCain himself, and then the two men hugged, signaling political allegiance.
Mike Huckabee has said that he thinks that right wing extremist John Hagee is "one of the great Christian leaders of our nation." Hagee, in turn, has spoken quite freely about how Christian beliefs should be applied by the U.S. federal government. On the subject of international affairs, for example, Hagee says that the U.S. government ought to let terrorists organized by God dictate American foreign policy
Mike Huckabee might as well be talking about a threat from angry goblins crossing American borders as ranting on about Pakistanis in the United States with shoulder-fired missiles. Both are equally imaginary.

Bill Gothard PhD, Founder/President
The Institute in Basic Life Principles
Oak Brook, IL
Dear Dr. Gothard:
For the past couple years, my colleague, the Dean of Cincinnati, has been writing articles about you and your various enterprises. Before then I’d never even heard of you, your institute, your “character-building" seminars, your unaccredited medical school, your unaccredited law school, your nursing program, your Children’s Institute, your bible-centered paramilitary boot camp, your music school, your culinary arts program, your Institute of Photographic Studies, your resort-style training center in Guadalajara, your upholstery training program, your hair design program, etc. As you know, I’m just scratching the surface - the list keeps just on going and according to this 2006 In These Times cover story, The Cult of Character, business is booming:
When Mike Huckabee calls John Hagee "one of the great Christian leaders of our nation", Huckabee is declaring that foreign policy based on conspiracy theories about satanic influence on the European Union are just the ticket for the USA. Remember that Mike Huckabee is running for President on the basis of his own status as a Christian leader. Thus John Hagee's eccentric ramblings about Satan's impact on American foreign policy can be seen as at the core of Mike Huckabee's plan for the White House, if he should win it.
John Hagee is on the record as making excuses for Nazi death camps, and Mike Huckabee surely knows that. Apparently, Huckabee doesn't care, so long as Hagee can deliver him votes. Mike Huckabee calls John Hagee "one of the great Christian leaders of our nation".
Mike Huckabee wants to change the world, and wants church to do it. In fact, he doesn't want the government to do it, and doesn't think that government ought to act to change the world. If Mike Huckabee really believes that to be true, why is he running for President of the U.S. government?
The third of the Christian Ten Commandments demands, "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain," but God damn it, I will if I want to. I have freedom of speech, and freedom of religion, so I can take any deity's name in vain if I want to. Besides that, what kind of democracy would base its laws on the idea of meek submission to a lord? That's what the founders of the United States rebelled against. Apparently Mike Huckabee has never heard about what happened in 1776.

As recently reported by The Cincinnati Beacon, presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee has close ties to fringe evangelist/tycoon Bill Gothard, who runs the little-known Chicago-area Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP) and a string of affiliated businesses. It’s been widely reported that Gothard’s organizations advocate strict authoritarianism and blind obedience. Allegations of child abuse such as locking kids for extended periods in “prayer closets” and other misconduct have led to investigations.
It’s a Love Fest that knows no bounds with the Gee-o-Pee. This article, typical of Coulter, spins around how fabulous Coulter thinks she is and why she is truly God’s gift to all of humanity. She pontifications liberally about her brilliance and compares her first shitty book “Godless: The Church of [...]
Today, I put up a video on YouTube about the Mike Huckabee political advertisement, paid for through his presidential campaign committee, telling the nation that “at this time of year, sometimes it’s nice to pull aside from that and remember that what really matters is the celebration of the birth of Christ”. That’s a [...]
When I think back to my days in elementary school (or grammar/primary school, for you Brits), one word will always pop into my head: fads. Power Rangers, Pokemon, etc. You know what I’m talking about.It’s one word the Republicans of Iowa and New Hampshire should keep in mind as well, as Mike Huckabee skyrockets in the polls. Mike Huckabee is just another Republican fad, during their desperate search for the right candidate.First there was Bill Frist, who decided not to run after a 2006 congressional loss. Then there was John McCain, the maverick from 2000, who fell out of style when the media focused attention on his stand on immigration. Soon after Rudy Giuliani, who was temporarily displaced by Fred Thompson before recapturing the lead. Then, more recently, Mitt Romney looked like he would be the nominee. Had his strategy of going for the early states worked? Had the GOP finally decided on a candidate?No. Huckabee plodded along at the perfect moment, taking advantage of the doubt

The Iowa caucuses are only two weeks away, with the New Hampshire primary soon to follow—and then the big primary blow-out on February 5.I predicted recently that Mike Huckabee would do well in the Feb. 5 super-primaries, based on the Feb. 6 eclipse hitting his Jupiter. That forecast was made before Mike Huckabee’s amazing surge. It is now looking more and more like he will do very well--and possibly win--in the early Iowa caucuses. He’s a Virgo Sun (like John McCain) and Scorpio Moon (like Mitt Romney). Here’s Noel Tyl’s uncannily accurate interpretation of the Virgo Sun-Scorpio Moon blend:…mental energies and conventions take on emotional projection. The fastidious ego must be established as the authority, the controlling force. The “missionary spirit” can dominate the work style. The emotions can overexaggerate self-importance.

It turns out that David Huckabee, the then Governor of Arkansas’s son, hung and murdered a stray dog while Huckabee was at a Boy Scout Camp. Guess what? No charges were filed even though there were witnesses and Huckabee was dismissed from the camp because he failed to [...]

Chuck Norris Endorses Mike HuckabeeIt's over.But seriously, unless you're a Ron Paul loony supporter, Mike Huckabee is the best Republican candidate. (EXTRA: See Obama take a swipe at Republicans)Rudy Giuliani supports nation building. Fred Thompson has even more conservative views than Huckabee. McCain is the bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran guy. Romney's the conservative suck up. Duncan Hunter wants to nuke Mecca. Tom Tancredo is an immigration extremist. At least Huckabee is an environmentalist.
David Brooks has a great column in todays New York Times on Mike Huckabee titled "From the Back of the Pack." I have thought that Huckabee was the real deal for the Presidency for a while and the best hope for a real conservativ
Gosh, where’s Major Bowes’ hook when you need it, huh boys and girls?It seems that pretend Repug presidential candidate Mike Huckabee is trying to tickle our funny bones again and failing miserably, this time over the matter of killing yourself.I gotta hand it to you, Mike; I haven’t had this many laughs since my last tooth extraction.And here are more uproarious moments. Enjoy.
I am still looking for a candidate for President. I think Fred Thompson has a better chance to become President but every time I hear Huchabee I am much more impressed. Do I go with the impressive guy with little chance of winning or the
BONUS ADDITION to Gays in the Military Series:The Huckabee campaign is the third campaign to respond to the question “What is your position on the “Don't ask, don't tell” policy? Should gays be allowed to serve openly in the military?”Here is his response:Thank you for writing me to ask about my position on this policy. I discussed this briefly along with other candidates in the debate, and I am happy to explain my position to you. I believe this policy works, and I don't think now is the time to change it, because our military commanders tell us it serves it's purpose in preventing the disturbances that occur when it is not adhered to. No member of our armed forces is allowed to behave or display personal characteristics in a way that complicates or interferes with unit function and unity. If our commanders say that this policy improves overall force performance by minimizing disturbances at the unit level then we should not change it, especially not in the middle of a war
