Very funny things happen when Mike Huckabee opens his mouth and says words about foreign policy. Remember the above clip from one of those hilarious 2008 GOP primary debates? He just had no idea what to say! And things don’t seem to have changed much, given today’s very confident declaration of no-peace.

While the U.S. (Democrats and Republicans), the PLO, and even psychotic war-monster Bibi Netanyahu all more or less agree to plot out some two-state solution going forward… Mike Huckabee disagrees(!):

Former U.S. presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee said Tuesday there is no room for a Palestinian state ‘in the middle of the Jewish homeland’ and Israel should be able to build settlements wherever it wants — taking a stance firmly at odds with Washington.

Reject Obama’s plan for a government takeover of foreign policy — TODAY.

Jeebus will not come back until Israel has taken over the total of the ancient homeland. Huckelberry just wants to see his Jeebus. Then all the true believers will dissappear into space with Jeebus and the Anti christ Liz Cheney will rule! until the nuclear war and all that are left on Earth will die. the end.
Love Hucks optimistic future for our lovely planet Earth!

so Huckabee is on the side of Gog or is it Magog? Very hard to keep up with teh krazee.

Well they’re gonna have to do something with all those ‘surplus’ Palestinians. Let’s ask Huck if he’s like to resettle them in Arkansas.

No, wait. The Palestinians have suffered enough.

Sorry, Jim, foreign policy has already been privatized to Lockheed-Martin, Haliburton, etc. They decide, we pay. And it’s working great!

OReillysVibrator August 18, 2009 at 12:16 pm

I need more context – was Huckabee saying this after more than 2 hours without food?

Oh hell, let’s just give Arkansas to the Palestinians. Maybe throw in Louisiana too. (No, that would be unnecessarily cruel.)

Trickyrick:
Surprised that I’m using a blog comment to get your attention? Well, don’t be it seems everything I’ve said has been distorted, twisted and pretty much fucked up any real message I ever had – in fact I’m no longer sure what I said. I even got one of those bibles with my words printed in red – to you know, refresh my memory – didn’t do it for me. But that’s not what I’m here to talk to you about today. It’s about addressing me or using my name as Jeebus most often seen in blog commentary. Look (said in appropriate senatorial Sunday TV tones) my name is Jesus only a fuckin’ 10 year old who’s afraid his head is going to explode for using my god given (heh heh) name would say Jeebus. Think about it. When you pray e.g. please let my team win, do you say “please Jeebus let my team win”? You don’t do you because you think I might miss your sniveling and your team will lose. You need have no fear there, nobody I know gives a rat’s ass if your team wins but you get the point.

Most adults who use my name as an emphatic rhetorical flourish use it appropriately. Many examples come to mind – Jesus, Christ, Christ almighty, the always popular Jesus H. Christ (anybody care to guess what the H stands for – you could win an iPod), – what am I forgetting here? Anyway, I’m more likely to listen to somebody say “hey asshole, you really fucked me how about some love” than “Jeebus blah blah blah”.
One other thing, please consider naming your sons something else I’m sick of being confused with baseball players or possibly revolutionaries. Come to think of it I like revolutionaries if only they didn’t turn into the people they hate so often.

P.S. I think I like this blogging shit. Nobody gets to manipulate my words or meaning, those asshole fundamentalists come to mind. For the record they’re all wrong about me but so is everybody else.

RoscoePColtraine August 18, 2009 at 12:23 pm

Hucklebee (as Ron Paul calls him) said Jesus would be too smart to ever run for public office. So nice of him to prove once more that his followers don’t have to be so qualified. But my question for the christards is if Jesus was master of the universe, and he actually came down here and saw all the shit that was going on what with the Romans bending over and collectively fucking the Jews, and his followers begged him to take care of that shit, and he said no thanks and let the Romans nail his ass to a cross, what makes you think fighting is the christian way to resolve anything now?

It happens every time a Southern Baptist minister starts preaching the OT.
God gave the land to the Jews.
If they’d do a couple of things.
They got the land
They didn’t do the things (‘cept for King David).
The next three thousand years and eight hundred pages is a chronicle of God whuppin’ their asses over it.
But Mikey the Southern Baptist Minister thinks Gods all done being pissed at his stiff necked people.
Apparently he hasn’t heard about Bernie Madoff.

In fairness, Huckabee is very consistent, and supports the right of Native Americans to build settlements where ever they want in their native homeland. And Casinos.

Hate fucking Christian religious freaks talk about the glories of the Jewish homeland because when they mean “God gave the Jews a homeland in the Bible” what they really mean is “it’ll help start that Rapture thingy and Jews make really excellent cannon fodder when the shit goes down.” But not as much as I hate Jews who suck up to the Christian religious freaks despite it all (cough….Joe Lieberman….cough).

Few things are easier made than a threat you need never back up. Sort of like that “gates of hell” comment. If some anonymous 19 year old has to back up the threat, it easily made by your average, overweight, republican… or their representatives.

Huckleberry Hound is just clarifying the words of ol’JC. Jesus never really believed any of that ‘turn the other cheek’ or ‘do onto others’ crap he said anyway. He just spouted that pacifist b.s. to attract the chicks.

[re=389237]The Names Jesus[/re]: I think the issue here is that “Jesus” refers to the holy person quoted in the New Testament as saying “love your neighbor as yourself.” “Jeebus,” however, is the entity worshiped by those known as “Evangelicals,” “Mega-churchers,” “C-Streeters,” “rednecks,” and the like, and who is believed to have said “yeah, love your neighbor as long as he is white, packs heat, drives a gas-guzzler, and hates the browns (and we ain’t talk’n the Cleveland kind) as much as you do.”

JooJoo Bee, didn’t forget it. There is no apostrophe in Aramaic.

[re=389226]Todd Mecklem[/re]: Theodore Herzl was involved in negotiations with British PM, Joseph Chamberlain, circa 1900, to settle the Jews in a new homeland in Uganda.

In actual, genuine, archaeological, fact, Palestinians are descended from Israelites (Jews Samaritans, etc.) living in the Roman province of Palestine. Of course, after 3-4, 000 years, everyone in the world is descended from Abraham. (Always assuming the Bible is literal history, a shaky assumption.)
