Huckabee just brings the charm.


Well, we have seen Huckabee's ignorance on gays, AIDS, and the prison release system of Arkansas.

Just in case you thought that would be it, here is another.

Daily Kos:

...

In August of 1998, Huckabee was one of 131 signatories to a full page USA Today Ad which declared: "I affirm the statement on the family issued by the 1998 Southern Baptist Convention." What was in the family statement from the SBC? "A wife is to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband even as the church willingly submits to the headship of Christ."

The ad wasn't just a blanket, "we support the SBC statement," but rather highlighted details. The ad Huckabee signed specifically said of the SBC family statement: "You are right because you called wives to graciously submit to their husband's sacrificial leadership."

...

Doesn't this guy get more and more wonderful? The bible is a literal truth. Rapist need out of prison. Sick people need interning. Our problems come from the gays. And women should shut up and take to steps behind him.

This guy is a contender? ... well, for Republicans, yeah. I am just surprised he hasn't had a George Allen moment yet.
