1. yeah. saw this yesterday. bad ass.

Nobody can call out these assholes and make it amusing as hell like Cenk does.

Hey thanks for posting these. Good on ya!

2. I'm glad you enjoyed it

I was hoping to spark a serious discussion on this topic but maybe later today in another thread.

3. Is there any evidence that the Governor is not just all talk?

I get the feeling that this type of rhetoric is meant to energize the radical Christians and inflame the Left for media attention among other reasons.

[navarth]

4. well, that's a fair question I reckon

but I can't help thinking....does it make any diff? he's still a clown

and a lousy bassist

[Mithreal]

7. Yeah, but, anyone can just accuse Huckabee of pandering and

ignore that he might do some real damage. I haven't done any research on him but will probably have to if he wins another just so I can talk intelligently in my lil activist community.

[navarth]

8. Ah. I getcha.

Hm. Well that's a reasonable thing to worry about. But I myself don't see him doing any damage unless he wins any more primaries. And we've got plenty of stuff on him...

Doesn't believe in evolution

Wants to change the constitution to match his superstition (or is just saying it to pander)

...hell, that's enough already for a lot of people..?

Anyway, please don't let me get in the way of your studies. They are a worthy enterprise.

5. It figures a discussion would start AFTER I created a new thread

giving some of my thoughts on this issue: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2705868

PS---The short answer is no, I don't recall a *serious* contender ever sounding THIS radical. Don't people take Huckabee a lot more seriously than they did, say, Pat Robertson?

[Mithreal]

6. That's alright, I moved the question over to the other thread : )

9. Isn't it great that conservative nutjobs like Huckabee all know exactly what GOD wants?

And isn't it great that half the country finds it completely logical that candidates like the Huckster know what God wants?

[ihavenobias]

10. I'd be curious to know

if Huckabee became president, would God have to call the main switchboard or would he have Huckabee's cell # or?

Maybe the latter because I'm sure he has unlimited minutes.
