Huckabee jokes about someone shooting at Obama

This is ghastly news! How "Christian" could a remark that that be? Yikes for Mike!

I'm not surprised at all, given his incautious remarks in the past on other topics.

Jesus Christ, literally, what the hell is wrong with Evangelicals?

Now Huckabee can be included with Ted Haggard (leader of 40 million Evangelicals who was getting massaged by a gay prostitute in the groin area and just happened to be curious about crystal meth); Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell (both of whom said right after 9/11 that we deserved it); Rod Parsley (quoted as saying, "We get off on war!"), etc.

FOX favorite Bill O'Reilly said Michele Obama could be lynched. Anyone seen the video of him freaking out on the tabloid show where he got his start? Why do Evangelicals eat this crap up?

It's stuff like this that makes me think almost literally that the anti-Christ is alive and well in the Evangelical movement. Who would Jesus joke about getting shot?

I know there's good Evangelicals out there, including some in my own family. To them I say: "Your movement is like an anti-Christ Titanic. It's time to jump ship!"

I generally enjoy Huckabee's wit. The one exception until now) were the remarks he made sucking up to the redneck vote on the Confederate flag.

But humor always has an edge and sometimes it cuts too deep.

In this particular case, the governor's wit was only runnng at 50%.

"because he's a moronic, pasty white republican idiot. i'm surprised that you had to ask."

The reason I asked is because he's a Christian and this is supposed to matter.

"The reason I asked is because he's a Christian and this is supposed to matter."

in that case, keep asking. think he will answer?

by the way, it's not just blacks who have voiced that concern. also, guarding his mouth isn't really the problem, it's that he thinks that it's acceptable to even consider the thought that's the problem.
