I'm uncertain to what extent we can joke about this since Obama's life is according to the Secret Service really in

  1. Huckabee is Reverend Wrong.  He clearly knew that his comments would appeal to his audience and he was clear about delivering them.  He knew that it could endanger Obama and his family physically. and chose to do so anyway.  Praise the Lord Reverend Huckabee.   If you did not think that you were putting them at risk  intentionally, then  you are a fool.  That is not the type of religion I believe in.  What would Shawn Vanity or his lookalikes have said if these same comments  were made about shooting McCain or  George W. from a Democrat.  They would have called out the FBI.  It would have been a FOX special.

    If Huckabee becomes VP then he will follow another  dangerous idiot in the job.  Heaven forbid.


  2. It was a tasteless joke, and he has since apologized for it.

    We have the right to question politicians on their platform and belief, however that was over the top.

  3. We as a society mock just about everything, so why do we get up in arms when someone decides to mock our favorite candidate?  As they say any press is good press.

    And as far as his life being in danger, I don't think it is any more so than any other of the candidates.  In my opinion, I think he is either not used to being in the spotlight or he is playing on our sympathies.  We have a natural tendency to feel more heartily for someone who is appealing for help.

    To be honest, he is quite charismatic, let's hope he can take a joke better than his peers.

  4. Just about everything ever uttered by Huckabee was a joke.

  5. Freedom of speech guarantees the right to mock politicians, but Huckabee's joke is just out of line.
