Mike Huckabee Writes Important Things From Japan

I can has internet facts?Famous American blogger Mike Huckabee is in Japan right now, eating sushi and looking at solar things. He wants his fellow Republicans to beware “disputable ‘internet facts’” and “internet driven drivel” about Barack Obama. Oh Mr. Huckabee you lovable nut! The Internet is nothing but disputable facts and driven drivel. [Huck PAC]

  1. Rev. Peter Lemonjello says at 11:34 am, June 20th, 2008

    The day teh Huckabeez eat sushi is the day they deepfry sushi in onion ring batter and fill it with delicious jellies

  2. How did he clear customs in Japan?

  3. Serolf Divad says at 11:36 am, June 20th, 2008

    I wonder if his hosts sent a hooker up to his room like in “Lost in Translation?”

  4. El Bombastico says at 11:36 am, June 20th, 2008

    But isn’t Mike Huckabee aware of all Internet trad… oh fuck it.

  5. Trollop says at 11:37 am, June 20th, 2008

    Huck is apparently not aware of all Internet traditions…

  6. Uncle Al says at 11:38 am, June 20th, 2008

    It’s adorable, it’s like the little feller is writing home from summer camp. He even signs it “Sayonara.” He’s so precocious!

  7. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 11:39 am, June 20th, 2008

    His plan to raise taxes would be an economic disaster for our nation. We would lose jobs and investment and see the economy really squeeze the working class with even higher fuel and food prices.

    Oh, choke on a piece of blowfish, you pompous lardbag.

  8. jagorev says at 11:39 am, June 20th, 2008

    Okay, after reading that, I like the guy. I really do. He’s like the only decent Republican in the country.

  9. AngryBlakGuy says at 11:39 am, June 20th, 2008

    …I envision the locals running away from his massive family with badly dubbed American accents!

  10. thefrontpage says at 11:39 am, June 20th, 2008

    Remind us again who Mike Huckabee is? Some Japanese official?

  11. Serolf Divad:
    Nah. She’d through a full bowl of katsu-don at him at first sight.

  12. wheelie says at 11:41 am, June 20th, 2008

    “Politics ought to be VERTICAL.” Bravo. It’s time someone took a stand and said that. I am sick of the horizonto-diagonalists poisoning the wellspring of democracy.

  13. ManchuCandidate says at 11:43 am, June 20th, 2008

    AngryBlakGuy:
    Aiiiieeee! Huckabee-ja!

  14. AngryBlakGuy:
    Mothra!

  15. 2goats says at 11:44 am, June 20th, 2008

    “Elections ought to be about elevating the best ideas and exposing the worst ones—not engaging in character assassination with half truths, innuendoes, and disputable ‘internet facts.’”

    If he would have just said that, Barry might have considered him for VEEP, but trashing the tax plan had to drop him behind “Dill Everywhere” Webb.

  16. Brutus Harlot says at 11:45 am, June 20th, 2008

    I want to thank Mike Huckabee for reminding us how vile it is to save a woman’s life when she is being killed by the fetus inside her. And how vile it is to not bring into the world a fetus that has no brain, or otherwise will be dead the moment it is delivered from its mother. How vile that Obama would want to prevent these things!

  17. queeraselvis v 2.0:

    Haven’t you learned by now that Huckabee and his minions are the nation’s premiere experts in the Heimlich maneuver?

  18. masterdebater says at 11:48 am, June 20th, 2008

    Huck Pac. Really? Why does that make me want to trip him in a hallway and take his lunch money? Republicans are just clueless when it comes to this image stuff. They can’t even hire an image consultant, because everyone they know is a clueless republican fuckwad too. Hang in there Mike, that folksy Reagan area world view is bound to come back into fasion…you know, if you live long enough.

  19. His plan to raise taxes would be an economic disaster for our nation. We would lose jobs and investment and see the economy really squeeze the working class with even higher fuel and food prices.

    Old Huckz’s judgment is being impaired by jetlag: we’re already an economic disaster.

    Let’s offer Huckz to make him Emperor if he does us the favor of declaring Arkanzas’ independence. We invade the state for a couple of hours, install Huckz the First as Emperor of Redneckland and then we go back to the civilized part of the planet, just north the Mason-Dixon line.

  20. “He has stated that he would be an activist in seeking to push for what the anti-life forces euphemistically call “reproductive rights.” Under my new plan for America, there would be no need for reproductive rights, because there would be no need for reproduction! See, they’ve got this nifty thing in Japan called hentai pornography…”

  21. Brutus Harlot says at 11:52 am, June 20th, 2008

    masterdebater: I’m guessing you didn’t see the little teenage men from HucskArmy.com on CNN this morning? They were really into the image, what with the abercrombie looking t-shirt in army green. http://www.hucksarmy.com/

  22. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 11:57 am, June 20th, 2008

    kudzu: Heck, he’s already Emperor of Redneckland. I say we gather up all those Tennessee “Democrats” who think Obama is terrorist connected, send them across the Mississippi River bridge, and then bomb Arkansas back to the stone age. Not that the folks there would notice much of a difference, but still, it’s a good start.

  23. Godless Liberal * says at 11:58 am, June 20th, 2008

    AxmxZ: My favorite part of that line is how he calls the “reproductive rights” a euphemism in the same breath as the term “anti-life” and does so seemingly without the faintest glimmer of intentional irony.

  24. loudmouthredhead says at 11:59 am, June 20th, 2008

    To the people of Japan,
    PLEASE DO NOT HARPOON THE RAVENOUS LAND MONSTER! He’s a lovable politician. We’d like him back for our amusement. We apologize for single-handedly driving up your food prices. Our Bad.
    Sincerely,
    Amur’ca.

    “Aiee! The guns! They have no effect! Protect the hentai and the panty vending machines!”

  25. Godless Liberal * says at 12:00 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Brutus Harlot: At a whopping 18,017 members strong, Huck’s Army would be clobbered by even the hcsfjm.com crew.

  26. metropolitan says at 12:00 pm, June 20th, 2008

    oh, if only hillary’s campaign team had listened to huckabee’s advoce she’d be on obama’s ticket now as the VP. too bad that logic doesn’t work on the GOP and he just nixed all his chances at becoming mccain’s VP with that post.

  27. loudmouthredhead says at 12:00 pm, June 20th, 2008

    AxmxZ: “HAHA! As if women could HANDLE power over their own bodies! *snort* What will that colored boy say next!? Support our troops and fetuses!”

  28. Walter Sobchak says at 12:01 pm, June 20th, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: How about we make Arkansas into a lake to drain Iowa into?

  29. Brutus Harlot says at 12:01 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Godless Liberal *: I just got very close to sending an email asking how a tank fits in with their Christian faith. But I was scared they would take it as advice and get a better logo, or would send back some frigthening email about the crusades.

  30. loudmouthredhead says at 12:03 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Servo: Sir, you cannot bring livestock into the country. OH! Those are your sons! I am am shamed…..”

  31. So let me get this straight: he’s using the Internet to write about how one shouldn’t trust anything written on the Internet. Huckabee for Dancing Hamster ‘08!

  32. loudmouthredhead says at 12:05 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Brutus Harlot: Shouldn’t that logo be a pickup truck with a huge cross on it and a dead squirrel/deer/varmint in the back?

  33. Whore Diamond in the Rough says at 12:06 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Uncle Al: Sayonara? That one o’ them Chinese cars?

  34. obfuscator says at 12:06 pm, June 20th, 2008

    AxmxZ:

    I especially liked the use of the term “anti-life forces”, and I especially liked him hypocritially snarking the anti-life forces for using euphemisms to mask their babymurder agenda in the same sentence. Combine that with the name “Huck PAC”, and you’ve got a true King of the Douchebags.

    Also, his Fair Tax idea is retarded.

  35. pondscum says at 12:07 pm, June 20th, 2008

    They miss the dogs. Hope they used a professional kennel…

  36. SayItWithWookies says at 12:08 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Brutus Harlot: They have a Presidential Prayer Team! With phone-in meetings at 8pm EST every Monday (it doesn’t say EDT — does GOD allow daylight savings or is that some vile euphemism for abortion?). They ask GOD to do an awful lot of things — appoint conservative judges, lower taxes and increase spending. In fact, this poor GOD fellow must be awfully sick of the constant haranguing from the Prayer Warriors. “Hey GOD, could you please grant telecoms immunity? Hey GOD, could you please legalize my handguns? Hey GOD — ” they’re probably one big Prayer Battle away from a big GODly smackdown. But I kid — I kid because I hate.

  37. nhunter says at 12:08 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Hucklebee always seemd to me like a decent guy with a good sense of humor.

    It’s a real shame about all that bible stuff.

  38. m_supercomputer says at 12:10 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Judging from the (hilariously depressing) comments on that post, apparently the wingnuts are buying into the Obama messiah thing now: “That is just another reason to be very wary of Him.”

  39. RuperttheBear says at 12:11 pm, June 20th, 2008

    loudmouthredhead: This has funny

  40. ThreeFingersNeat says at 12:11 pm, June 20th, 2008

    thefrontpage: You’re thinking of Mike Hukabi.

  41. weirdiowasculpture says at 12:13 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Huck’s secret mission over there is to find the recipe for egg salad so good you could plotz.

  42. Cape Clod says at 12:13 pm, June 20th, 2008

    I’m a little uneasy about him saying that he misses the dogs right after he complains about how bad the food is.

  43. loudmouthredhead says at 12:14 pm, June 20th, 2008

    m_supercomputer: He whose name shall not be spoken… I wonder if they think Barry will manifest in front of them if they say his name three times into a mirror. Oh, and then scare the crap out of them with his blackness.

  44. Brutus Harlot says at 12:14 pm, June 20th, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: All I ask God is to find me a parking space.

    Oh, and that I please not be pregnant. But she makes me pay for the test before she tells me she granted that prayer.

  45. ThreeFingersNeat says at 12:14 pm, June 20th, 2008

    re: driven drivel: Sure, laugh it up, but my Drivel gets way better gas mileage than what I used to drive.

  46. obfuscator says at 12:16 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Godless Liberal *:

    You beat me to it.

    Huckabee and other conservatives aren’t capable of understanding irony because they’re so busy embodying irony.

  47. WadISay says at 12:16 pm, June 20th, 2008

    While here in Japan, I have seen for myself what anti-life forces like Godzilla, Mothra and Rodin the Flying Monster can do to a nation.

  48. Doglessliberal says at 12:18 pm, June 20th, 2008
  49. Brutus Harlot says at 12:19 pm, June 20th, 2008

    WadISay: The flying spaghetti monster is in Japan and Huckabee has seen it?

  50. Monsieur Grumpe says at 12:19 pm, June 20th, 2008

    HuckPAC is sound someone makes when spitting out a very large glob of nose mucus. Very appropriate name in this case.

  51. SayItWithWookies says at 12:22 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Brutus Harlot: Plan B: Better than God.

  52. Brutus Harlot says at 12:27 pm, June 20th, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: Plan B? Why you have no sanctity of life. I’m reporting you to Huck’s Army.

  53. loudmouthredhead says at 12:28 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Brutus Harlot: Nono, he ate it. He loves noodly appendages.

  54. SayItWithWookies says at 12:30 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Brutus Harlot: Oh you have no idea — I would give up vegetarianism to eat a fetus that I had conceived. Let their GOD chew on that for a while.

  55. SayItWithWookies says at 12:32 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Doglessliberal: Awesome. The new Wonkette isn’t anti-panda, is it? I hope not. I already have the perfect name: I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butterstick.

  56. loudmouthredhead says at 12:34 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Doc:
    Huckabee’s Ideas Right for America!

    Vertical = upward = Higher Ground.

    Mike Huckabee for President!!

    p.s could someone help me replace my ranger star with another graphic (like Huskers for Huckabee or Deborah in Dayton or Tyger. Thanks)

    Dear gawd, they are learning our language and the concept of logic! They have reached the beginnings of playing with words! Soon they’ll discover flint and fire! We’re all DOOMED! AHHHHH! Hide in your liberal apocalypse bunkers!

  57. Doglessliberal says at 12:36 pm, June 20th, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: oh, that’s a goody!

  58. benj-thewrathofgod says at 12:43 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Oh please please please will someone photoshop a pair of anime eyes onto Huckabee.

  59. NoWireHangers says at 12:50 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Poor, Hucks. He talks like the GOP cares what he has to say.

  60. loudmouthredhead says at 12:51 pm, June 20th, 2008

    benj-thewrathofgod: I second that!
    Hook-ah-bay-ee San!

  61. pondscum says at 12:51 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Snarkless question here: what is he doing in japan? Did someone there hire him to speak at something? I’m confused…

  62. …they have squirrel sushi in Japan?

    Also, can we rename truck-stops ‘Huck and pukes’? I’m sure trucknutz would be a big seller.
    weirdiowasculpture: What’s Up, Tigerlily - very good.

  63. pondscum: Possibly they asked him to speak about weight-loss to sumo wrestlers.

  64. lawrenceofthedesert says at 1:22 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Mike, thanks for the pro forma Fetus Litany rap and two rousing choruses of “There’s a Better Way To Keep That Negro Down.” Since sushi makes you insecure about your masculinity, how about eating your banjo?

  65. DangerousLiberal says at 1:27 pm, June 20th, 2008

    jagorev: Word. Even if you disagree with the guy, it seems like he might be a decent guy. His sons, on the other hand….

  66. obfuscator says at 2:44 pm, June 20th, 2008

    TGY:

    Hucknutz?

  67. Fata Morgana says at 2:46 pm, June 20th, 2008

    Serolf Divad:

    Nah. He’s too extra-christ-y for a hooker. But they did send some peanut butter and a side of beef.

  69. obfuscator: Those are some big nutz.

  70. Whiskeybaby says at 3:58 pm, June 20th, 2008

    is there some rule in the comments section of old Huckpac that every poster must use at least ten sets of ellipses in each paragraph? It hurts my brain.

  71. Clancy_Pants says at 5:46 pm, June 20th, 2008

    マイクhuckabeeは、犬の尻を追う

  72. Every japanese know gaijin people should be treated like cuddly pets or children. You pamper them, touch their unusual hair, laugh at their sad joke. You feed them and put out newspaper to train them.
    It important to smile politely when crazy man talk, and make that udon-noodle sucking when ever he raise diplomatic point or says his unsanitary name Huckilberry
