Don’t Quit Your Day Job, Mike HuckabeePosted on May 18, 2009
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee was visited by the GOP Muse and out plopped this elephant patty of a poem. The chef-d’oeuvre comes at a time when Republicans and Leon Panetta are calling for an apology from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the CIA for accusing the agency of “misleading” her on their interrogation methods.

So Go after Nancy- I could Care less- she barred OUR right to Impeachment proceedings, so few Dems give a damn what happens to her..but what the Repugs fail to remember- or admit- is that all the others in those Briefing are just as guilty as her of concealing War Crimes, and since the Repugs were the Party in Power they are only convincing US more that many in both Houses were complicite- esp on their side of the Aisles.
Report thisIn Fact it appears a number of people were kept out of the loop- including Sec of State Powell (Face the Nation interview yesterday).so I would think the Repugs would be better off pleading ignorance too. Otherwise they are just admitting they were ‘in the loop’, thus confessing to Conspiracy to commit War crimes and usurp the powers of Democracy (Treason).
come On Wheres one of those Fabulous Surveys asking the Public the degree of Trust they have in the CIA’s honesty? In fact break it down into Party lines- Bet the numbers will be damn near the same against Trusting ANYTHING said or Done by the CIA. Repugs obviously have no idea how much their own base subscribes to Conspiracy Theories of Secret Anti American agendas involving the CIA. The Repugs unfettered and unapologic allegience to the CIA is sending their Right Wing tin hats over the edge.

Tropicgirl, I got this slightly wrong—he used a popcorn popper to fry squirrels during a prank at college. He revealed this on Meet the Press in February 2008. Yes, Huckabee brought this up all on his own—explains how his campaign pettered out.
According to Mike it was a “youthful indiscretion” but when I attended university I had a popcorn popper & I used it only to pop corn. Not to torture animals. The squirrel was alive when inserted into the popper…
Mike’s pretty typical of Rethug males asserting their dominance within the animal kingdom. Find a victim and let loose; drink heavily before, during and after. Man, what a loser! Surprised he isn’t the poster boy for the New & Improved GOP.

“Should be hanged for not keeping of meter.” Come on—Huckabee is a born-again Christ-tard. What you want, T.S. Eliot? (another fascist, by the way).

Oh Hucka-bee, why cant you see them Dems just won’t play nice,
Report thisTheir speaker replies with a mouth full of marbles and lies that stink on ice.
We hoped for change ‘cause prayin’ is out and instead he appoints old larvage
(see urban dictionary.com) to govern transparently with only one wish, that we
ignore the smell of hot garbage.

Strictly fifth-grade stuff. I think we’ve discovered the secret of his alleged boyish charm: he’s genuinely intellectually juvenile.

Linda, I am surprised to be the only one so far to commend you for your great poem. Its what should have been said.
Did Huckabee really blender live squirrels? You got anything to back that up? I would be curious.

Man, THAT is one sorry-a*sed poem. Poetry is concentrated language; the essence; words to convey subtle nuances of feeling and interrelatedness. So not this. What could we expect from a former frat boy whose idea of fun was stuffing a live squirrel into a blender, and then pulsing?
I’ve a better poem, for Mike:
“There was a Rethug from Nantucket…”

OK, here’s my poem.
There once was a Speaker who declared
She saw no misogyny aired
If anything she found benefit
And played the card to her credit.
A pact she did barter
To keep her own Charter
Was just a temporary deal
To help with the election steal.
To her dismay
Report thisIs support for the CIA.
And seeing the fuss
Places her next under the bus
Which has long been on its way.
