Did Huckabee just say "We are the ruling class of America"????

[Roland99]

:wtf:

[Thrill]

1. Don't worry about that clown

He'll say a bunch of crap to sink himself

[Jackpine Radical]

9. Well, left to his own devices Bush would have sunk himself

with his mouth too, but Hucklenuts has the M$M to cover for him. Besides, there is no doubt that he was speaking to a large segment of his constituency with that comment.

[Cha]

16. Maybe huckster said

drooling class?

[Jackpine Radical]

17. That would make sense...

:rofl:

[Cha]

23. That would make

more sense. :rofl:

[Catsbrains]

26. I hope your right cuz he scares the be-Jesus outta me. nt

[ingac70]

2. That is what the Dominionist Christians believe. n/t.

[FrenchieCat]

3. Well, I'm not sure......

but when I woke up, he was still talking.

He's trying real hard.

Now, he's reciting the declaration of Independence.

How much longer he will talk, I don't know? :shrug:

[JI7]

8. yes, anyone know how many minutes he has been talking

i lost interest some time ago.

on edit, to be fair he IS the winner in Iowa so i guess that's why. i still see Obama as the only winner.

[JI7]

4. he will be a great opponent for us

[Roland99]

5. "to poop on"!!!

lol!!

[FrenchieCat]

15. !

:rofl:

[thatsrightimirish]

6. souded kinda like Chairman Mao nt

[yardwork]

7. I hope that success goes to his head and he reveals more about his beliefs.

He's really insane, and it will become apparent. Wait for it.

[Kucinich4America]

12. It might be the best thing that could happen.

The only way to get around the fact that Huck is a governor in the general election, might be to prove that he's a fucking lunatic!

[Roland99]

18. Yeah, like bringing back segregation (at least for AIDS sufferers).

Huckabee *does* represent change!

He's going to change America into a Middle Ages kingdom!

[Nitrogenica]

10. The ruling class is freakin boring.

[Nailzberg]

11. The people are the ruling class is what he said.

You, me, all of us, that is the we he is talking about.

[Roland99]

14. I doubt he was reaching out to ALL of America. More likely Jesusaurus believers only.

[Nailzberg]

19. I wouldn't trivialize him that way, he could end up being a dangerous candidate

I think he was reaching out to Americans. It's pretty common for candidates to use the humble "I serve you". Whether he truly believes it or not, the line does reach out. His speech wasn't that bad.

[Roland99]

21. I still can't help but wonder how much was code for the fundie nutjobs

[Nailzberg]

24. I caught the usual amount of fundie code in there.

He's like a literate Dubya. He hits popular message points and has a god mastery of coded speaking. That's why I fear him the most of any of their candidates. He could trick a lot of people into voting for him.

[sampsonblk]

22. Yep. Good point, great speech

Huckabee is nearly as skilled as Clinton.

[arcos]

13. To be fair, I think he wasn't talking about Republicans...

He was actually criticizing the establishment... certainly the GOP corporate fascists must be very scared that an actual real Christofascist may get the nomination.

[Robeson]

20. It was a Frank Capra directed speech....

...pure pablum.

[goodhue]

25. We, as in, We the People
