Mike Huckabee Suggests Literally Shipping The U.N. To Saudi Arabia

by Juli Weiner  

Over the weekend, Mike Huckabee spoke at a “How to Take Back America” conference, an event notable for the fact that it apparently exists. Anyway, obviously in taking back America, Huckabee must start by identifying who took it in the first place, when there must have been something good on TV and no one was looking. No surprises there: it was the crafty Foreigns, who must have planned the taking of America in one of their many languages! Ha! Well, let’s see them try to steal America again after America takes Huckabee up on his suggestion to somehow literally saw off the east side of Midtown Manhattan and let the U.N. float away across the Atlantic, to somewhere that wants it, like to Saudi Arabia, who want it so bad they MADE WAR WITH IT, on 9/11!

Huckabee goes: “It’s time to get a jackhammer and to simply chip off that part of New York City and let it float into the East River, never to be seen again!” And while we’re at it, saw all Earth’s diplomats into the Atlantic Ocean too. Let ‘em go eat sand, in one of the Muslim sand-farming countries!

“It’s time to say enough of the American taxpayer’s dollar being spent on something that may have been a noble idea, but has become a disgrace!” said Huckabee. “It has become the international equivalent of ACORN and it’s time to say enough!”

Huckabee continued, suggesting that the U.N. be handed over to one of the nations that attacked America. “Let’s end the diplomatic excesses that these people enjoy,” he said. “Let any country that is willing to spend the money that the United States is hosting–let them have it. Give it to the Saudis and let these diplomats suck the sand out of the Saudi desert for a few summers and see if that’s where they’d like to go, and make their ridiculous speeches.”

It will be cumbersome to deliver ridiculous speeches with a mouth full of sand, is his point.

He must be back on a diet, judging from his references to eating/sucking sand.

trondant September 28, 2009 at 10:21 am

Huck’s junk is long, but pencil-thin. Unlike the rest of him.

Sure, that’s his position until someone suggests they evict everyone and build the world’s biggest Olive Garden.

mookworthjwilson September 28, 2009 at 10:23 am

Was it just a coincidence that the “Take Back America” conference was held in the same city, on the same weekend as the annual national Klan Jamboroo and the NAMBLA Annual Hoedown??? But from what I hear, ol Huck was just in town for BBQ and after eating his weight in pig jowls, he thought why not head over to the conference…no word on if he went to the NAMBLA deal…

“Take back US Ameriduh”

Sponsored by the “I have a right to cheap gas no matter what the cost to youth or my nation’s finances so I can drive my over fed giant ass and my famibli in my 3.5 MPG SUV to the nearest Jimmy Dean’s all you can eat after I go a church that doesn’t pay no taxes while they shill for the GOP cause of Guns, no book larning and fetuses.”

Hey Huck, I have a suggestion. Next time you’re stuffing your face at an All You Can Feed place, see if they have some cognitive dissonance. I think it’s near that place with all those non deep fried stuff is, you know, the Salad bar.

Wait. Is New York part of America now?

“It’s time to say enough of the American taxpayer’s dollar being spent on something that may have been a noble idea, but has become a disgrace!” said Huckabee.

The same could be said of the state of Arkansas, Mikey. Except for that whole “noble idea” thing.

Ridiculous speeches? Huck’s the go-to guy on that one!

Huckabee has a boner for other people who make fools of themselves, in speeches.

That’s his schtick and furriners don’t need to be horning in on him.

nightshift September 28, 2009 at 10:34 am

[re=420610]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: The state of Arkansas with the exception of Fayetteville. It really is a nice, liberal college town. The wingnuts can have the rest of the state.

pampl September 28, 2009 at 10:35 am

OK, so the “ridiculous speeches” he’s referring to are probably Gaddafi’s and/or Ahmadinejad’s. His solution is to make these leaders go to a repressive desert state to make their speeches instead of liberal Western NYC. I think I see a slight problem with this punishment.

[re=420608]ManchuCandidate[/re]: The Forces of Fat Food have even taken over the salad bar in those few restaurants that still have them. Let’s see: I’ll have some of that grated cheddar, and some pepperoni, and some olives, a nice ladle of “French” dressing, couple tablespoons of bacon bits, oh there’s the cottage cheese, and a part of a leaf of that fine, fine, iceberg lettuce. Yummy!

JSDC007 September 28, 2009 at 10:41 am

Look, the folks this fool speaks to at the “Take Back America” (from the gays, Ricans, Jews, black Kenyans, liberals and ladies who work) conference would also like the gays, Ricans, Jews, Wall Streeters, lawyers, women with careers, liberals, blacks, Asians, etc. to be expelled from New York. That would leave just Staten Island, which is even less exciting than any mini-mall in Wingnutistan.

[re=420610]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: I would say the whole of people much every red state. Though I would think that it might be in our interest to lease a highway through the Midwest. However, I think having them pay their own way would pretty much put most of them on about the same level as North Korea, so such a lease could probably be had pretty cheaply even after the barricades and the “do not feed the hicks” signs.

Darkness September 28, 2009 at 10:45 am

Giving crazy people a nice place to speechify is like handing out rope to people with long necks. The sane adults need to more than anything to realize the depths of the crazy. Does he want to ship the RNC convention to Saudi Arabia too since they were sponsoring the Bush family all these years?

Ahmed: “What do want to do today?”

Luigi: “I know! Let’s go to NYC and enjoy some diplomatic excesses.”

Karl-Heinz: “At US taxpayer expense! Ha!”

All: “Hahahahaah, stupid Americans… Hahaha.”

gurukalehuru September 28, 2009 at 10:48 am

Actually, he’s got a point. If the U.N. were not in the U.S., it might have a chance at preventing a war the next time the U.S. wants to start one.
Since wars started by other countries invariably involve less firepower and less chance to actually turn into international conflagrations, this would be a good start.
Let’s ask the Russians if they want it in Moscow. That’ll gast their flabber.

Yeah, republicans will say pretty much anything these days for the opportunity to throw ACORN in there somewhere. Not exactly a party known for producing independent thinkers. Never mind Blackwater sucking on the taxpayers’ teats while getting away with murder. ACORN and the tiny, miniscule sliver of public $$ it uses must be stopped at all costs.

Someone should make a graph showing the Huckster’s level of retardation, presidential ambitions and fatness. I bet there’s a positive correlation between two of them. And (just cold hypothesizing here) a negative correlation with the third.

Maybe Huck would change his mind if the UN opened an all you can eat buffet featuring the bottomless Humus Bucket™.

If he’s back on the diet train, does that mean he doesn’t get to sample the new gourmet du jour – Deep Fried Butter? That’s so sad for him.

Zadig September 28, 2009 at 11:12 am

[re=420628]Darkness[/re]: That’s a fantastic point, actually. No Republican should want to set a precedent of punishing people for being associated with batshit crazies. Even if Huckabee were somehow right, and the UN should be abolished or whatever, it actually being kicked out of the US because of what Ghadaffi said is really bad in the end for Republicans.

OReillysVibrator September 28, 2009 at 11:14 am

Huckabee goes: “It’s time to get a jackhammer and to simply chip off that part of New York City and let it float into the East River, never to be seen again!”

Remember when Huckabee was the least douchey option on the GOP side 18 months ago?

I was going to make a joke about his tenuous, Bugs Bunny-esque grasp of geology (he seems to think islands are actually floating), but then I remembered he’s one of those fundie Young-Earth tards and he’s actually forbidden from forming complex thoughts. By Jesus. Or something.

We had an outbreak of Take Back in Vermont a while back, when John Dean was governor and Civil Unions were introduced. Take Back Vermont from the flatlanders who had moved in because they had gotten jobs here, paid taxes, and bought houses the locals were trying to sell. The locals, of course, were from families who had lived here “forever” and by buying their houses, we were forcing them off their land, which god had given them way back when. It was unpleasant for a little while but eventually they got bored and started painting over the “Take Back Vermont” slogans they had plastered over the sides of their houses.

The U.N.???? That’s so 1990s John Bolton. Maybe fluoride in the water will rile up the base.

How come conservatives say such freakin’ xenophobic unilateralist nonsense and then get incensed when jackasses like Ahmedinejad spout their own brand of the same xenophobic unilateralist nonsense? All this really demonstrates is that Huckabee, Bolton, Giuliani and all their ilk are as unfit to govern as Qaddafi, Ahmedinejad and all the other fanatics they rail against. Really we should invite them all to form their own country — Fuckyallistan, they could call it — and all be stupid xenophobic unilateralist shits together. With sharia, even.

Judeofascists loved promoting their “Islamofascism” propaganda.
