Low, low, low, low - Huckabee

After a week of public flogging for his attacks on Beyoncé, whose music he called "toxic mental poison," former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee's (R) next stop was "The View," where the pop-star's former group mate called him out on his remarks.

Referencing one of music's best-known couples Beyoncé and Jay-Z by their last name, former Destiny's Child member Michelle Williams told the Republican, "I’m not the Carter spokesperson, but to hear some of those comments that you said I thought were very, very, very low.”

Huckabee stressed that he thought Beyoncé had a "great set of pipes" but should not produce songs he felt were too sexual for a mass audience. He directed the "View" hosts to read his book, "Guns, God, Grits and Gravy."

“I’ve said to people, read it and if you’re still offended, so be it,” the former governor said.
