Huckabee Responds to Assassination Joke

[esd2000]

Typical defense. point at others.

[FloridaLiberal]

Mike Huckabee is a true man of his word. Proof at 0:53

[jokr8790]

Now wasn't that convincing? I'm certainly convinced. OF COURSE he didn't mean it. How could anybody think he did? Of course it's a little strange that that's where his mind immediately went to. Of course he didn't mean it and he won't mean it and he'll apologize the next time he says it too.

[wvfii]

MY question: why does a man of God such as Huckabee work for an organization (Fox News) that is funded by terrorist Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, and whose biggest draw (Glenn Beck) follows the Mormon cult? A Mormon is no more Christian than a MUSLIM is. I have serious issues with the company Mr. Huckabee is keeping...

[hamburgerbob321]

so what he shouldn't of apologized

[Rifleman132]

Damn, you are all a whole bunch of stiff necked pricks, it was a stupid joke said by Huckabee but that doesn't make him a rascist, cruel, or stupid.

What do you people think that you are all perfect or something?

[billoakesattablthree]

Huckabee is only guilty of a lack of common sense that's it.

[1980NANO]

which is the same of saying, i am an idiot, i shouldnt run for the job... but here i am, saying my stupid jokes...

my god¡¡¡, he is not only stupid, but also ignorant... and pretended to be president...¡¡¡

[dfrutled]

What?! I never knew he said this shit! What a fucking dick. He, Beck, and Liz Trotta all are on Fox, enough said.

beck called President a racist and Liz and Fuckabee just joked about killing Obama. Yet all 3 are still employed at Fox

[marcostar57]

It was "dumb" .... no it was a STUPIDASS F*CKUP remark by a far-right religious dimwit! Actually Hucakabee is at least likeable personality wise.

[southernpride231]

impeach obama

[whitestripesrulz]

huckabee is a nutjob!!!!

[DarthKreeg]

I do not heart huckabee.

[DONTBRINGDAVID]

It was a joke.

God dammit.

CHILL OUT .

[radudeATL]

Miss you, Tim...

[niuoyera]

hes not Mormon. hes Moron.

[placidwaves]

In all honesty, Huckabee is a racist Mormon, which makes his political party of choice to be very clear: Republican Racism Party.

Anyone that knows mormon history, particularly from the time of Brigham Young, should not at all be surprised to see a racist and intolerant mormon.

Nor should people be suprised to see a racist republican.

[RushRobinson2000]

Huckabee isn't mormon.

[placidwaves]

RushRobinson2000 said: "Huckabee isn't mormon."

Well yes, i suppose Huckabee isn't a mormon like Hitler wasn't anti-jew.

Huchabee is a mormon. This fact has been established over and over again. Huchabee is a mormon, or more popularly named, moron.

[RushRobinson2000]

he's not

[AlHakeem55]

@RushRobinson2000

he is hindu

[ab1tchslap]

I wouldn't be surprised to see a racist democrat either because a person's political party has nothing to do with whether or not they are racist.

I would be pretty surprised to see a racist libertarian though.

What about republicans makes them racist?

[gamersxs]

Huckabee isn't a mormon, you're thinking of Mitt Romney.

[placidwaves]

Really, my bad, i suppose i mistook his stupidity with mitt romney's

[mfp508]

Joe Biden is assasination insurance. Barry is not stupid.

[jackofclubz]

RIP TIM

[xVTHokiesx]

Huckabee's just ignorant lol

[justbun]

This was a comments pass from generations , your family kill so many slaves in a america and now your apologizing for it again.

[MICHAELMEM]

Asking about Huckabee's joke is not serious journalism or serious interviewing, in my opinion. "it was a joke" is the only answer.

[pegelatrin]

how can this guy be a baptist minister?

[bradford880809]

thats just it.. he's a baptist. its a southern thing

[imaginaryfriendship]

Huckabee will surely says tonnes of dumb stuff till he dies. This guys is an idiot and a menace.

[southernranger1]

no obama is an idiot and a menace and all he does is talk about change you know what fuck change fuck obama Huckabee 2012 bitch

[imaginaryfriendship]

don't hold your breath clown. :)

[coolspindrift]

Amazing what a repellent, homophobic, "bigot- light" he is.... The consumate fundy. Hope he wakes up one day.

[mamroshed]

Huckabee is the best he is cool fuck obama binladen

[cahx85]

Huckabee is the man, lol

[Elementskater134]

Huckabee-"It won't be the last dumb thing I've ever said"

nice, and sarah palin can't name a newspaper she reads or a supreme court case.... man if we get 4 more years of a republican president.... with sarah palin as vp....... it might be even worst than the bush years

Obama 08 =D

[paulstar35]

ya obama would be a real good choice for all you dumb bums who dont try and get an education and instead make people who make money pay for your gang banging trailer/ghetto trash @sses

[emanxavier]

The time of the gentiles is coming to an end!

[paulstar35]

wait a year when Obama is having a tea party with his terrosrist friends

[emanxavier]

The Bush crime family are the real terrorist.

Fact: Bush and Cheny are responsible for more deaths than any so called terriost.

[paulstar35]

You are correct they have killed more arab scum but i dont consider terroists people

[Austinian2]

and who is the Jew if I may ask?

[emanxavier]

how are the Hebrew Israelites? Just a Question..

[astone69]

Jews are people who practice the 'religion', 'Judaism'. Not necessarily blood-line descendants of the ancient Israelites.

You'd be shocked to find out who really are.

Ever wonder why the original texts and languages of Hebrew and Aramaic aren't spoken anymore?

Ever wonder why the so-called 'Jewish/Yiddish' language wasn't a language until the 16th century?

Ever wonder why black slaves in the 1400's were able to communicate with the "Native-Americans"? What tongue did they use?

Not Yiddish!

[Austinian2]

I know all this about jews... I just thought your statement was a little odd... I was wonder about what exactly you trying to get at.

[Austinian2]

and obama messed his speech up and got his facts on the cold war wrong and Al Gore said he invented the internet... ok! everybody says dumb things and the only time you complain about is when a conservative says something... people like you are such winers... give me a break...

[ww1flyingace]

So, out of all of the candidates for president at that time, he singles out Obama for this joke.......

[xSynthos]

Because he's the only nigger that has a slight chance.

[lefthanderla]

You know what else can be funny, in the right context of course:

Lynching is funny, genocide is funny and, oh yeah, mass murder is funny.

Hahaha, just laugh with me and we'll slowly erode the standard of tolerance as we plant the idea that a political assassination is not only possible but inevitable.

[AVINATION]

I still like Huckabee,

OBAMA 08

[ELowkey7]

good ol murder humor

[Leveractionjake]

To all you people on this forum who thinks Huckabee's comment was intended to be evil, let me tell you it was not. His comment was humor simulating that Obama fears your guns and want to pass more gun control laws along with taxes on guns and ammunition.

[crbballgal]

I support Obama 100%, but Mike Huckabee is a good man. He made a terrible "joke" - but he is a good man, nonetheless.

[dibbilydooha]

Someone that far in the political game knows better.

[jessicatron]

look i think the joke was insensitive, but he's just talking about the elephant in the room, really. insensitive? yes... but like some other people have already said... he apologized for it, he explained it. i really don't think he meant anything bad by it. i mean, i hate huckabee and i'm all for obama, but i appreciate his apology and i don't think he meant any harm.

[eddie5718]

Nobody picked up on the fact that this was an address to the NRA so he tried to make a gun joke? Not a smart move, but to think he was implying that he wanted Obama to be assissination... come on.

[eddie5718]

assassinated*

[theRebels3]

hilarious!!,....oh wait,...no it's not....at all

[macedawgdeluxe]

Ehh his campaign was doomed anyway but at least he apologized for his comment which is more than idiots like Bill o Reilly does when he blurts racist and offensive things.

[HillaryfansforBarack]

He will go to HELL, Jezus Christ hate people like Huckabee!!

[HillaryfansforBarack]

When I watch mccain I get tired....lol

[maria175]

Huckabee is as common as they come. Like every other 13 year old boy in Arkansas in 1973, he got a guitar for Christmas. But he wasn't talent enough to become a rock star, so he picked another profession that would garner him a lot of attention with the girls -- Evangelical Preaching. Huckabee is so common, he even rode with the Arkansas State Police. Let's kick him to the curb.

[bigbrothermusic]

Really stupid.....Very very stupid mike

[LeinenkugelBeer]

What an idiot!

[gretchen6999]

keep apoligizing asshole!!

[lionheart209]

Huckabee is awesome!

I love him!

Obama is a lame!

[StrongBlackman25]

Huckabee is a great person. Black Folks love Mike Huckabee.

God Bless Mike Huckabee.

[gretchen6999]

huck a hillbilly is a fuckin retard - he loves jesus and guns - i dont remember jesus loving guns - huck a hillbilly is even admitting to saying dumb things on a regular basis.

[lldenney]

"Wasn't the first dumb thing I ever said..." But it's the instant thought he came up with that is the most telling. Just like McCain's Bomb Iran song. These are ACTUAL THOUGHTS springing out of these wackos. If it WASN'T- then they would know better than to even mention them!

It "IS" sometimes the little things that REALLY show you how people think.

Wish most people had known that when Bush kept mixing up his words and sentences like a moron.

[conorcrawford]

Wow. I actually kinda liked Huckabee before that, but I have no respect for him now. This is a lot worse than what Hillary said and I'm surprised that it went unnoticed.

[coachfun1987]

Huckabee is the joke here. Funny thing about "jokes" and off-the-cuff comments. They come somewhere from the gut & mind of the person, proving they feel that way to some degree.

"It was a Bobby Knight moment"? What an asshole to bring up something so inane & irrelevant.

[peplreallysuck]

Never knew Huckabee was such a dickwad with an utterly tasteless sense of humor. Honestly though, I feel pretty indifferent about these people's problems in thinking assassination jokes are funny things, but I do really wish they would direct them elsewhere. Obama doesn't deserve this crap; he deserves sincere, respectful fellow patriots who are willing to listen to what he has to say with an open mind for change.

[ticka111111]

how many time are you going to let people slip at the mouth and then they turn around and say sorry? i don't beleive it, hucklebee is rascist,hillary clinton is rascist as well as so many others. how can black people be proud of america when comments like these are made? they are way outter line.

[geroldfirl]

Huckabee is a liar.

That wretched stunt was completely staged. Watch the timing of his "joke" - it was a premeditated threat.

He talks about a "Bobby Knight" moment - that noise was produced on-cue by a confederate backstage.

It's a disgrace to this country that this vicious, dishonest clown has been given a free pass to incite violence against the next president of the USA. Such tactics must be expunged from the American political system if we want to maintain a free society.

[Swingstate08]

A lot of white men are jealous of Obama because he is a Mandingo warrior and makes white men look like a BITCHES...BITCH.

Not funny:(

[Schleiermocker]

Although the joke was completely uncalled-for, I do respect the fact that Huckabee openly admitted the fault and apologized for it in a most transparent fashion.

[MellythaMYLF]

Like WTF?
