Huckabee's Obama Assassination Proclamation

Good thing this guy dropped out of the race, cause we certainly don't need this brand of presidential "humor."


Former candidate Mike Huckabee was speaking Friday to the NRA, when there was a loud bang. Instead of continuing his speech, he aimed a joke at Barack Obama. *crickets*

Huckabee apologized for his "offhand remark," saying it was not "intended to offend or disparage Senator Obama." Obama, for his part, refused to comment.

Because what's funnier than killing a U.S. Senator?!

31. Did you even WATCH the video??? He said Barak tripped off a chair when he saw someone with a gun he thought was pointed at him and so he hit the floor.

I'm really sick of the media sensationalizing stories like this... Seriously, the comment was funny... He was not suggesting someone should or would or had shot the man. Relax.

32. What the hell do you expect from a dude name Huckabee. Typical southern nonsense and lack of intellect. This dude is a freakin loser and a sorry excuse for a man and the RNC should be embarrassed by his comments.

38. But the Republican party has so many total idiots how can you pick just one? Its just the way they operate, look at their base, its the land of the ignorant, to put George Bush back office after 4 years of pure incompetence. Seriously, if you wish to be lead by someone that is incompetent what does that say about you?

Fiscal conservatives with that deficit, really? All they do is claim to be morally superior and scare people, reminds me of the muslim extremists we are fighthing now actually.

41. The film of the "offhand" comment makes it seem carefully planned. Planning such an irresponsible remark makes it even worse. He is not funny and not very Christian.

42. Obama wants to make peace and friends with this world leader.. It is said that in the 10th century, the 12th and last Imam of the Shiite branch of Islam disappeared. He is said to be hidden by God and will reappear at the end of history to lead an era of Islamic justice. But lately, actions by -- and rumors about -- Iran's president have renewed interest in the 12th Imam.

Centuries ago, this holy person is said to have disappeared, hidden by God, but kept alive since then, to reappear at the end of history to lead an era of Islamic justice. The belief, which helped to inspire Iran's Islamic Revolution 27 years ago, diminished in importance over the years.

Now it has found renewed inspiration in Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. But of course this has nothing to do with the joke or Huckebees boo-boo.

43. Lexi, I could not agree more. I will vote Republican before I will EVER vote for Obama. Yipeeee another 4 years of BS!

44. It is obviously something he has thought of before since it slid out of his mouth so fast. I don't think he
wants any harm to come to Obama, but it is a scary thought that some people who call themselves Americans
can even "go there." It was TOO easy for it to pop out like that...as Jimmy Carter once said, (paraphrase) "If
you think it, you're doing it."

45. I was once told that the democratic party was a philosophy based on emotion and the republican party was based on intellect. Based on some of thse comments I can understand why.
