Quote of the Day? Gotta Be Huckabee

Let's face it. Mike Huckabee's rant on Obama growing up in Kenya and being influenced by the Mau Mau uprising is about the dopiest thing I've heard in a while. Unless he was smoking his socks while being interviewed, there is no explanation for confusing Obama's time spent growing up in Indonesia with Kenya. There was no Mau Mau uprising in Indonesia, and the British were not the colonial masters of Indonesia; the Dutch were. And what did Winston Churchill have to do with Indonesia?


"Yee gads!"

The only reasonable explanation Huckabee might come up with is that he is a product of the public school system.

    Once again, Gary shows that he really does have sound judgement, and even a critique of his less-than-favorite president will be subjected to a well deserved roasting if it lacks a scintilla of sound data.

    In 2008, Huckabee was on my short list, along with Edwards and Obama. I gave up on Huckabee after he kissed up to Ken Copeland for campaign bucks, as documented in The Wittenburg Door. He's been getting more ludicrous ever since. Too bad, he was setting himself up to be "The Environmental Evangelical President." Now he says abortion is "the paramount issue," when the president of the United States has essentially no jurisdiction over the issue at all.

    Thanks for a timely dissection of a rant showing the speaker has gone way off the deep end, and has less knowledge of foreign affairs than Hillary Clinton.

    Thanks for a timely dissection of a speech which demonstrates that the speaker has less knowledge of foreign affairs than Hillary Clinton -- quite a LOT less.

    Huckabee was on my short list in 2008, along with Edwards and Obama. We all know what Edwards was really focused on. I gave up on Huckabee after he kissed up to Ken Copeland for large campaign donations. Too bad, he was promising to be the Environmental Evangelical President. Now he doesn't seem capable of doing even one out of three.

    That's weird - blame the duplication on Blogger software. It told me it couldn't complete the log-in, so I had to start over.
