Mike Huckabee: Trust John Bolton, Not the Pentagon
Friday, September 18, 2009 at 1:25 pm
After former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee’s speech to the Values Voter Summit, he held a short press conference where I asked him to expand on something from his speech: His argument that President Obama had left America weaker by scrapping the Euro missile shield.
I heard Ambassador John Bolton, I heard many other people who are really at a point of liberty where they can speak their minds — unlike those in the Pentagon who do answer to the commander in chief and have to answer for his policy decisions — who believe that it was a very significant strategic mistake.
Watch it after the jump.

A (frightening) glimpse into what a Huckabee cabinet would look like?
The horror…

Bolton couldn't find his own right hand in the dark, so we should trust his “judgement”? Forget about all the czars (of course, Beck won't, he's having too much fun shoving his own wazoo up his own behind), this guy wasn't even LEGALLY in the position he wants everyone to accept that he held, and did NOTHING in, but by jesus, you better listen to him! HE knows what he's talking about!
America would benefit from his “judgement” better if he wore a big red rubber nose, and a clown wig. He could be taken seriously, then!

UpcHuckabee is such a disgusting inbred bigoted jackass that it makes me wan to hurl. He's nothing but the anti-Romney candidate, with half a college degree, half an IQ, and a sickening family of blobs that tortures dogs who are so obese they make Ted Kennedy look trim. All of the born agains who follow this imbecile around like sheep do so because they couldn't possibly look to a Mormon in 2012 as their best candidate. They're too prejudiced and prideful to see straight, and don’t have a clue what the hell is going on or care what is good for this country. Sadly, the liberals in Massachusetts proved that – contrary to what conservatives say — they walk their liberal talk when they elected a Mormon as Governor without discriminating against his religion. Too bad that the conservatives, who claim to value religious freedom, are secretly such hypocrites incapable of the same.
