Huckabee has a hard life. His wife does too. She has to listen to a constant litany of 'holocaust' remarks from Mike. Like the time she forget the fabric softener in his laundry, he still refers to it as the 'boxer holocaust'. Then there was the burnt breakfast toast incident, otherwise known as the 'whole wheat holocaust'.

You know what else is a holocaust? AOT,K.

The number of (disallowed but somehow actual) comments on this item so far, tech-ups notwithstanding. is a pretty good indication of how many fucks the Wonkeputians – and by extension America – are willing to give about this sad bible-thumping grifter. I'm guessing there's a tattoo on the back of his neck that says "Best if used by 1972."

Poor metaphor for a human.

Hard to square his alleged concern for the lives of Jews with his belief that most of them have to be destroyed at Armageddon. If you don't think evangelicals yearn for Armageddon soon, dial into "To Every Man an Answer" (it's on 900 stations, so there's one near you), and listen to the questions.

Would it kill any of these "journalists" to point out that uh.."the Jews"™ have a nuklear weapon?

Israel can take care of itself. They've proved that repeatedly. They're also crazy enough to go Full Scale Retaliation mode (the desert makes everyone nuts, frankly), so I don't know what everyone's worried about them for.

He should stick to thumping that bass. If we take away the power cables, no one has to listen to him then.

So basically, just more proof that what passes for "leadership" with conservatives is having the "balls" to say something really, really stupid, and the "courage of conviction" to triple down on it when pressed and never, ever admit you were wrong. ESPECIALLY when it is so, SO obvious you were wrong.

At this point I actually don't believe the bar can be lowered any further, now it just keeps sliding to the right. -Probably due to its proximity to the magnetic core of the Earth.

I kinda seriously believe the desert heat does something to people, based on the opinions and leanings of some Arizona inlaws. To borrow from Lewis Black, stuff like the Old Testament was a good way to distract people from the fact that air conditioning hadn't been invented yet.

It must be like Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, except with just one degree and Hitler.

What I have never seen discussed even one is why anyone thinks that war between two nations is in any way comparable to the Holocaust. The Holocaust was not the result of a non-Jewish state declaring war on a Jewish state. It was the result of a government in power targeting and using its authority to first remove the rights of citizenship from a minority within the country, and then strip that minority of it's possessions, and finally to practice Genocide on that minority. A HOLOCAUST CAN NOT HAPPEN ACROSS RECOGNIZED NATIONAL BORDERS!!! Germany didn't 'holocaust' any US Jews... or Canadian Jews. They didn't holocaust any Polish or French or Russian Jews UNTIL AFTER THEY HAD INVADED AND DEFEATED THOSE COUNTRIES!!!

So how on Earth does this in ANY WAY correlate to Iran??? Is idiot Huckabee saying that Iran will invade Israel, defeat them and occupy the country (while the US is busy in the bathroom maybe...) and then they can holocaust the living hell out of those Israeli Jews... you betcha! So effing stupid!

If, on the other hand, he is saying that this treaty could lead to an Iran that instead of being a 30-to-1 underdog in any war against Israel would only be a 10-to-1 underdog in that war.... OK... we agree... that could happen... Wow, sounds pretty 'holocausty' to me...

I think you'll find she uses starch as a kind of Boxer Rebellion.
