Someone please point a gun at Huckabee for laughs

Discussion in 'Sports and News' started by EStreetJoe, May 16, 2008.

  1. I thought I heard laughter after his remark about Obama falling off his chair - that kind of automatic laughter you have when you expect the speaker to be funny, even when he is not - but I heard no laughter when he said someone pointed a gun at him ... what a bizarre thing to say.

    A sizeable part of the GOP base likes Huckabee more than McCain. Even though Huckabee had long since dropped out of the race, he got over 20% of the vote in the Indiana and North Carolina primaries.

    McCain needs that base to come out in large numbers to beat Obama. He doesn't necessarily need Huck as his VP, but he can't come out and tell Huck to get lost either.

    I actually thought I heard laughter, despite what everyone on here is saying, but I may just be overly sensitive and expect the worst, because I am naturally suspicious of people who spend their free time at club meetings for a group built around the cause of owning weapons.

    Why would it frighten you -- Just remember my gun has killed less people than Ted Kennedy's car......

    An internet psuedo-tough guy sitting behind a computer and keyboard calling anyone a coward is sort of like Yawn calling anyone irrational........

    Something to be proud of. Congrats on your accomplishment.

    I'll take comfort in that, I suppose, when your gun serves a primary purpose of transporting people around--or, for that matter, any main purpose other than causing injury or death.

    That so, Mr. Hulk?

    You are a coward, if for no other reason than your lip-servicing faux libertarianism. You're not on the fence, you're the birdshit on the fence.
