The BL RAG

During a speech before the National Rifle Association convention Friday afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, who has endorsed presumptive GOP nominee John McCain, joked that an unexpected offstage noise was Democrat Barack Obama looking to avoid a gunman.

"That was Barack Obama, he just tripped off a chair, he's getting ready to speak," said the former Arkansas governor, to audience laughter. "Somebody aimed a gun at him and he dove for the floor."

Joke gone bad?     The one-liners and quips that's made Huckabee a household name this past year appear to have finally nipped back and bit him in the ass.  I like Mike,  he seems like an honest, religious and rather humorous guy,  but he really seemed to have put his foot in his mouth on this one.   Huck,  you don't get do-overs...  you're a Republican!   

I hope none of you out there were looking to him as the Vice Presidential candidate...   if so I think it's safe to say you can kiss that goodbye.

 

Apparently Fox News is controlling the minds of the voters, while ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and all the rest don't have any power.  Fox must be using that thought-ray machine that Karl Rove invented. 

And only anti-Obama blog entries have any effect.  HuffPo, KOS, all those leftie nut roots that are everywhere on the net, don't have any power at all.

The leftist version, edited to remove crucial parts of McCain's response:

The real video, without the duplicitous editing:

Barack Obama drinks John McCain's milkshake.

Before the argument becomes impossibly stupid, here’s McCain saying [of Hamas], “they’re the government and we’re going to have to deal with them.” I’m not saying McCain’s wrong to say that. I AM saying it demonstrates what a transparent hypocrite he’s being today.

When CNN asked Barack Obama’s communications director Robert Gibbs to comment on President Bush’s “appeasement” statement at the Knesset, Gibbs pointed out Bush’s own defense secretary is himself speaking about negotiations and engagement with Iran. However, CNN edited that part of Gibb’s statement it out after its first broadcast. You can hear Gibb’s statement in its entirety, then with the excised portion removed.

Well, OK, guys. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . At least she’s not an addicted drug thief.

Or, How the Dog Sat on the Bone It Buried.

Funny.  The President gave a speech in which he condemned appeasement, without mentioning any names.  Jimmy Carter seems the most likely target of this barb, actually.  But up pops the Obama camp, all outraged and red in the face about how Mr. Bush has unfairly attacked their guy.  Talk about a backhanded admission. 

"We have heard this foolish delusion before.  As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: 'Lord, if only I could have talked to Hitler, all of this might have been avoided.' We have an obligation to call this what it is — the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."  --President Bush, to the Israeli parliament

But I suppose it's good that the Obama folks recognize their guy for who he is.  

If this is not the stupidest Presidential interview ever conducted, well, would someone be kind enough to direct me to one that's even stupider?

A quick preview of what the world will be like after the Clintons rip the Democratic nomination right out from under Obama's feet... enjoy:

Smile! Only one more day until Friday!!
