Dumbfuckabee: I thought McCain’s ‘bomb Iran’ song ‘was funny.’
from ThinkProgress:



Huckabee: I thought McCain’s ‘bomb Iran’ song ‘was funny.’»

On NBC’s “Meet the Press” today, host Tim Russert played a clip from Friday of former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee joking about Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) ducking after seeing a gunman. Huckabee apologized for saying what he called “a dumb, off the cuff remark,” and pointed to similar “dumb” comments from other politicians:

It won’t be the last dumb thing I’ve ever said. I’m sure I’ll make other comments. I think we all in politics do. Ronald Reagan had an open mike and said ‘I’m gonna launch a nuclear attack against Russia,’ I remember John McCain saying ‘Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran.’ I thought that was funny, but I mean a lot of people didn’t.

1. Wow

To think that for a while this man had a remote chance of being the next President of the United States. I'm glad the American people learned there lesson from Bush.

"Fool me once, shame on, shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again" I don't think the American people can be fooled again.

2. There is something seriously disturbing about Huckabee.

6. He's clearly a disturbed individual.
Jesus wouldn't approve of your laughter about bombing Iran, nor your "joke" about Obama, "Rev." Huckster.

7. Republican humor
A definite oxymoron, as their attempts at humor fall flat and usually include some element of psychotic behavior.
