Idk. Phelps et al took homophobia to a whole new level. It's easy to rail against such a comic book villain. Disagreeing with Phelps, even on his stance on homosexuality, doesn't necessarily mean you still don't have a mostly negative attitude towards homosexuality. I'm thinking of the "hate the sin, love the sinner" crowd. I think Huckabee and his ilk fit into this sort of "homophobia lite". They dress their bigotry up in platitudes and are likely to find support from some or the same people who might have decried Phelps. One might look towards Russia in the run up to Sochi. There you see the same sort of stance, where they enact policy that strips gays of their rights whilst insisting that its not borne of homophobia and is merely to protect children from paedophiles. I do not doubt their sincerity in this belief - most homophobes don't identify themselves as homophobes.

Ultimately I think these extreme undiluted views create an illusion of overwhelming support for gay rights. Perhaps the publicity raised a debate about homosexuality/phobia, but that debate still had to be fought and won by gay rights activists, not through us all uniting against a sort of shill.

I certainly hope things continue the way they have been. Still, there are parts of the world which seem to be regressing in this regard (see Russia again -.-). I have a feeling that rallying against any minority group is always going to be an effective political tactic, especially if it's done under the guise of protecting children from sexual abuse or preserving "family values".

Huckabee's obliviousness to the fact that the Bible HAS been rewritten and edited many times throughout history is laughable.

I agree. All Americans need to stand up to Mike Huckabee, the Republicans and FOX and say: ENOUGH of this nonsense!

He's right in that Democrats think everyone (except themselves, the elitists) are helpless and can only make it with the help of the gov't.
Huckabee is just making the point that women don't need help from the gov't.
Actually, Democrats don't really believe women are helpless, they just want women to think they are helpless w/o the gov't to help them. It makes them more likely to vote Democrat, and this empowers that one political party, which is the ultimate prize for politicians.

if i want to know what liberal women are thinking, i always turn to mike huckabee.

9) Bush would be blamed by the leftmedia for the exact same thing if he was President. Why not? He was blamed for 4 years of Obama failure!
8 ) Dr. Seuss was pretty upfront about The Lorax being propaganda.
7) Apparently a true story.
6) It's one guy's opinion on a discussion panel, and he's 100% correct about the State-run media taking Fluke's side without question.
5) As good a figure as any, when even the communist NYT claims in 2009 "U.S. Unemployment Rate Hits 10.2%, Highest in 26 Years" http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/07/business/economy/07jobs.html?_r=0 Plus it's common knowledge the government falsifies these numbers.
4) I don't care.
3) Odd. Usually the libmedia are chastising the military. But if the "64% increase" is true, tis true.
2) Geraldo is a liberal. As dumb as he is, at least he's allowed to be on FOX...there is no comparable 'token' in the libmedia.
1) Huckabee's doing his thing. So what?

When the left creates a SINGLE news outlet anywhere that doesn't work hand-in-glove for the taxocrat party, THEN they can compare biases. Until then, they're traitors to the American people who refused to vet King Obama and have never reported anything that put him in a negative light. They're no better than soviet-era State-run propagandists and come revolution, they are hopefully the first to go. Thank you and good night.

Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!>> ^ToastyBuffoon:

WTF? I actually nodded my head in agreement with Bill-O.

^The Iowa caucus was not very important in 2008. McCain (the eventual Republican nominee) finished a distant 3rd.

28.3 Romney
28.1 Huckabee
11.9 McCain

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/2012_2008_gop_iowa_caucus_4_years_ago.html

Look at the numbers for 2008...you could make the same argument about Huckabee. Winning Iowa has always been hit or miss at predicting who the nominee will be. The point of this video I think is that this is the first time when the media is basically telling the voters of Iowa if they vote for a certain candidate then it just won't count. Trying to kill any momentum that RP might get out of an Iowa victory.>> ^dystopianfuturetoday:

I think people are saying a Ron Paul win in Iowa doesn't mean much because his popularity there is not reflected at the national level.

Everyone knows that the best way to prolong orgasm is to just picture Mike Huckabee playing the base. (DUH):

I know politicians aren't the most noble people, but Huckabee truly has no shame whatsoever.

Very inspiring.


As a gag reflex ?

Jon's 15 second comment on the Monday following is pretty cool:

With a soupcon of The Donald.

obvious immediate hypocrisy point: indoctrinating children
http://mediamatters.org/research/200909020012
yes you have to opt in to huckabee, but your children dont get a choice... did obama make himself into a cartoon to talk to little billy and sally... no
parents could have kept their kids home. what happens when the parents show this in their home? wheres the possiblity for choice then?
all obama did was stress the importance of educating oneself... not holding the past over the present and ruining the future.


Don't forget that there wasn't even anything political in Obama's speech. He just told the kids to study hard. So there's no comparison. Huckabee is more worried about imaginary child indoctrination than his own real child indoctrination.
