On record, Gov. Mike “Idiot” Huckabee says that President Barack Obama’s worldview was shaped by growing up in Kenya.
From this article in the Telegraph, he says:
“The bust of Winston Churchill, a great insult to the British,” Mr Huckabee said. “But then if you think about it, his perspective as growing up in Kenya with a Kenyan father and grandfather. He probably grew up hearing that the British were a bunch of imperialists who persecuted his grandfather.”
All this despite that he grew up with his mom in Hawaii and wouldn’t visit Kenya until he was 20.
This is hard to admit, but I read this on Drudge.
Having sullied my computer clicking on that Drudge link to go to the original article on The Telegraph, I found two things to be interesting:
(1) “A Washington Post-ABC News poll last year found 14 per cent of Americans say without prompting that they believe Mr Obama was born in another country. That number rose to 20 per cent when those with no opinion were given that as an option.”
– Thus proving Matt and Trey (the creators of South Park) correct when they said that about 25% of the population is retarded!
(2) “Mr Huckabee himself has called these suggestions fringe theories that distract from the serious policy disagreements with Mr Obama. During appearances for his book tour, he dismissed the so-called “birther” ideas.”
I knew Huckabee (as well as McCain) had refuted the birthers in the past. So the fact that he’s resorted to this argument now means he’s a political whore willing to sink to the lowest common denominator damn the consequences! Way to keep the whole “Thou shalt not bear false witness” thing sacred pastor Mikey!
