Huckabee likens gay marriage to incest, drugs

[SpankMe]

Source: AP via msnbc.com

Mike Huckabee, a possible Republican presidential candidate in 2012, says the effort to allow gays and lesbians to marry is comparable to legalizing incest, polygamy and drug use.

Huckabee also told college journalists last week that gay couples should not be permitted to adopt. "Children are not puppies," he said.

"I feel homosexuality is an aberrant, unnatural, and sinful lifestyle," he wrote, in response to a question about gays in the military....He also advocated isolating AIDS patients from the general public, saying it was necessary to confine "carriers of this plague."

"Marriage has historically never meant anything other than a man and a woman. It has never meant two men, two women, a man and his pet, or a man and a whole herd of pets."

1. "But...but...but...he's a likeable guy!"

I've heard that on this board on more than one occasion. This should bury that illusion about Fuckabee once and for all.

His ideas are poison. His attitude is slimy. His whole existence is repulsive.

[liberation]

18. ... but that is exactly what some people, even here in DU, like about him.

[progressoid]

23. And he plays bass in a ROCK band!!

:eyes:

2. This from the guy who released two murderers and rapists on to the streets

Maurice Clemmons and Wayne DuMond.

Mike Huckabee: too LIBERAL on crime.

[Sebastian Doyle]

7. Yeah, but on a positive note, he DID pardon Keith Richards

Might be the one decent thing Huckster ever did.

11. Any time-- pay it forward-- It's gone viral around the world in a small way over

the last year or so. It is time to make it the new anthem.

It's a lovely little earworm. Nothing is better than to see Hungarian, Brazilian, British, etc. versions of this.

Defining Humor Through the GOP

As to Don’t ask–well, being a good evangelical wingnut, Mike is agin’ it. He says the foot soldiers aren’t out there “demanding” repeal. Well, Huck, you guys that have never served, might want to take a reality check about just how freely the rank and file foot soldier feels to state his personal opinion about political goings on.

He calls equality within the ranks as a “social experiment.” Guess he might have said the same thing had he been around to advise Harry way back when, on the NEEgro problem in the rank and file sixty years ago. Just speculatin’ of course.

Additionally he will have no truck with them homos. Ya know it’s just wrong to pollute God’s union of marriage of course, but he is not for any of them civil unions either. Just a toe in the door as he sees it. It’s just like drug dealers, incest pushers and polygamists. Should we accommodate them too?

Worst of all, he supports denial of adoption to gays, claiming that it’s all about the kids (even though all the studies say that kids raised by gay parents are every bit as normal as other kids). He says that we would be engaging in that “social experiment” stuff again, and kids are not like puppies–everybody can’t have one for the asking. Course any woman, sans any examination of any kind, can birth litters or singles in repetition to her hearts content–regardless of her ability to raise in any rational manner, said offspring. That don’t count in the Hucky world of being highly moral you see.

5. And ixion likens Huckabee to a delusional whacko

which isn't much of a "liken," I guess. :evilgrin:

[arbusto_baboso]

15. And Arbusto Baboso likens Huckabee to sack of liquefied pig shit.

Except the pig shit serves more of a useful purpose.

[beac]

22. And beac finds it hard to find something to liken Huckabee to b/c, no matter how vile the thing, it

really doesn't deserve to be likened to Huckabee.

[closeupready]

6. LOL - he's such a clown.

This actually almost made me spit up my coffee. :rofl:

[FiveGoodMen]

8. Show me a preacher and I'll show you our destruction

Keep these fuckers out of politics.

The founding fathers knew what they were doing with that Establishment Clause.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

10. Gays can't adopt, but this guy can have kids:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=8139574&mesg_id=8139574

Huckabee can go to hell; I don't care how "likable" he is.

[yellowcanine]

12. "a man and his pet" Getting into Ricky Santorum territory here. Never a good place to be.

[TheCowsCameHome]

13. He left out obesity - His kid looks like he overloads on puppy chow

[muffin1]

14. Mike Huckabee can rot in hell.

Does he pray to Jeebus with that mouth?

Fuck you, Mike Huckabee, and your hillbilly family, too.

[bullwinkle428]

16. The most two-faced bastard on the American political scene today.

:mad: :mad:

[liberation]

17. Funny to hear a Southern man blame others of incest and drug consumption...

... projection runs rampant among the GOP folk, don't it?

[npk]

31. Funny. I was thinking the same thing

What a goofy little shit he is.

[Turbineguy]

19. He has to get to the primaries.

That menas he's got to be one crazed motherfucker to get these creeps to vote for him.

[daleo]

20. Bible thumpers sure have a thing about beastiality

And the Bible's full of stuff about it. What's up with that anyway?

[No Elephants]

36. Really? Can you cite some example of bestiality from the Bible?

[mitchum]

21. Gomer Shitforbrains

[Rosa Luxemburg]

24. He's probably gay

[lunatica]

25. He's a fucking pig

What some politicians won't say to get votes!

[lebkuchen]

26. A cross and garlic are the only ways to deal with folks like this

as well as some salt thrown over the shoulder (Japanese tradition) to ward off evil spirits.

[customerserviceguy]

27. I'm not worried about him

Even the freepers don't like him, they call him a nanny-stater, and his pardons record is going to kill him with law and order types. He only was a bit more than a flash in the pan because the fundies had nobody else to vote for in 2008, and now they've got Caribou Barbie.

[yellowcanine]

28. I suspect Huckles' 15 minutes is over. Though obviously he doesn't realize it.

Time to make way for the other losers, Huckles.

[superconnected]

29. That guy is nuts.

"Marriage has historically never meant anything other than a man and a woman. It has never meant two men, two women, a man and his pet, or a man and a whole herd of pets."

[DesertRat]

30. This is so hard to read

I just can't believe the ignorance.

F U Huckabee!! :mad:

[applegrove]

32. There goes another right winger with their talk of man/animal relationships.

[graywarrior]

33. I shudder to think what goes on inside that guy's head

[No Elephants]

37. So? Holder's D of J likened homosexuatlity to incest, bestiality and pedophilia in its brief

defending the Defense of Marriage Act (signed by President Clinton, Holder's former boss).

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2009/08/obamas-justice-department-in-knots-over-gay-marriage-case.html

Huckabee's a far right neo theo minister. What's our excuse?

The "holier than Huckabee" on this thread would be laughable, if this crap didn't cause so many human beings so much anguish.
