Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who is pursuing an ever-more unlikely bid for the presidency, responded to Friday’s terrorist attack in the West African nation of Mali on social media with a non sequitur about something President Obama never said.

“After today’s attack in Mali, the Obama-approved domestic anti-terror plan: Give up your guns and memorize a Koran verse,” Huckabee wrote. According to reports, the attackers in Mali freed some hostages who were able to recite verses from the Koran.

Huckabee — or someone hired to manage his Facebook page — seems to delete all negative comments, but the response on the more unwieldy platform of Twitter was not positive....

Earlier this week, Huckabee made a strange analogy comparing Syrian refugees with tainted Chipotle food, and last month agreed with a fringe radio host that slavery is an appropriate punishment for the American criminal justice system.

3. For anyone planning on travelling on business to

that part of the world, probably not a half-bad idea. Might just save your bacon.*

*Llike a business a few years ago (don't know if it's still around) that sold passports from countries that no longer existed. The one I remember was from British Honduras, and there were several other options. The thought was (and this was when there were lots of airline hijackings) that when the terrorists asked for your passport you could give them one that wasn't American, which might get you off THAT 'preferential' list.

8. I know. It just seems ironic in context.

We are, after all, discussing the Muslim world.

that Fuckabee couldn't correctly cite more than a few Biblical verses.

Is he afraid that his "god" will not protect him??

However, memorizing the Koran might not be a bad idea these days.
