No Rim Shot For Huckabee’s Obama Assassination Joke

Not even the National Rifle Association could muster up a giggle when Republican Mike Huckabee cracked a joke about someone taking a shot at Barack Obama, a man who has received death threats. Better luck next time, Huck!

The remark comes at about the one minute mark. Feel free to fast forward.

I guess that joke kinda contradicts the whole message that precedes it, huh?

The sad thing is, some people did laugh at that joke. You can clearly hear them in the background.

I’m so sorry that he is no longer going to be in the race for Pres.

Pathetic.

I would like self-governance. After looking in my own heart for what is right and wrong, I’ve decided I’d like the right to marry (or not) the man of my dreams.

The fact that this twat won the Iowa caucuses and 6 or 7 other states is absolutely frightening. He is an absolutely clueless troll. And he got more than a few giggles…scarier still.

This guy was the scariest persidential candidate of all. Behind that “aw shucks” preacher turned politician mask, there lurked a morality fascist. Here, Huckabee felt comfortable giving us a small peek behind that mask because he was amongst “friends.” And he is still in consideration for McCrazy’s VP.

Expect more of these type of comments from the fringe/extreme right to come throughout the election and even more of this crap if Obama wins.

Mike Huckabee is an idiot. Anyone that would make a ‘joke’ like that is an idiot.
