Whoa. Rein in the vitriol folks. I happen to think Huck’s point is valid. The burden of proof on this absolute comedy lies squarely on the shoulders of the fools who tout this boob as the greatest man on earth. Does this not tarnish the whole image of Nobel? Why do we even need to say anything? Let the awarding scream its own politically charged irrelevance from the mountaintops of the world.

Nobel peace prize? For 11 days in office?

Seriously. How can you get mad at that? It’s HILARIOUS.

Yes, exactly. What specific thing did Huck say that was wrong here? He’s saying it’s so ridiculous that we don’t have to make fun of it — everyone else will do it for us, and be harder to the Presidential apologists to explain away.

As far as your “example” of Mike Huckabee when he left office as Gov. and the “Wedding Gifts”. The following is the truth of that story:

When he was leaving office, he had bought a new house. Their friends wanted to give them housewarming presents. Since there is no “Housewarming registry”, they made a “Wedding Registry”.

It’s that simple, folks, and look at what it “looked like” in the ethics info online. That’s why you can’t believe the info online because you don’t know what really happened, just like the “Wedding Registry” lies.

The Democrats in Arkansas were vicious (just like lots of you fellow “Republicans”. Give Mike Huckabee the same courtesy that you give Sarah Palin. Would you like it if people were saying the same crap about Sarah (even though you can explain it) that you are saying about Mike Huckabee?

He did not conspire with McCain in VA. The truth is:

After the first round when Romney nor Huckabee gained 50+1 votes to win the caucus, Ron Paul came to Mike Huckabee and said he would tell his supporters to back Huckabee if he would give Paul the delegates. Huckabee agreed. McCain’s supporters would automatically support Huckabee because they didn’t want Romney to get them. There was no back door deal with McCain. Yet you all believe it because #1 you want to believe it, and #2 the Rombots conveniently can blame Mike Huckabee for Romney’s loss (which is absolutely ridiculous with Romney spending $70-80M dollars to Mike Huckabee’s $5M for the whole campaign).

Do you see how unbelievably vicious you are when you know what really happened? I believe that the other things can be explained too, but Mike Huckabee didn’t have the money to make ads explaining is side.

You are giving Sarah a break, give Mike Huckabee a break too.

If you go on YouTube and watch his show from Saturday night you will see how Mike made the Nobel prize ridiculous for Obama because they gave it to Obama on what he “would do” in the future. Mike Huckabee made lots of points about how other people should have gotten the prize from what the would do in the future. It was funny and made the point without being negative or sarcastic. That’s what he meant in his post about Republicans. Don’t give the Dems. the opportunity to make us look bad because, unfortunately, the people in America are listening and believe the lies the Dems post in the paper about the Republicans. Mike Huckabee was trying to make sure the Dems couldn’t say negative things about the Republicans this time. He was trying to help our side.

… and Obama’s head is getting bigger and bigger everytime the Huckster speaks.

Kudos to the Preaching Politician.

Mike Huckabee is one of the reasons that we been stuck with Neville Hugo Obama. He is a nanny state conservative, which is to say, he is not a conservative?

Exactly. He’s much closer to being a neoconservative.

Sarah Palin has posted again on Facebook. It’s a link to Kudlow’s NRO piece.

No, it was in not “inevitable” that she would be congratulating Obama on his unwarranted prize.

Exit question: When will the inevitable congratulatory communique from Sarahcuda drop on Facebook? I’m guessing around 11-ish tonight.

Oh, how I wish I had posted my thought when reading this yesterday. It was “She won’t”.

And she’ hasn’t.

Hits?

You Betcha!
I took the challenge and you are correct

Yeah, they’re everywhere and it is a vast left wing conspiracy.

Unless someone can show me how conservatism has advanced at the expense of socialism over the last 80 years, or how and when and where socialism has retreated?

Show me the true conservatives teaching in universities, running Hollywood/TV studios, writing for major newspapers/magazines, in political positions, etc…and no, I won’t accept the George F. Will types who are actually moderate liberals willing to be at least fair to us.

Enough of the nanny approach.

Your profiles match.

BTW, are you Saint Olaf by any chance?”

Sorry to disappoint! Well…not really.

Your syntax matches perfectly. Your tone…everything about your style. I know Max Brantley to be the very type to infiltrate a blog like Hot-Air (which is THE leading blog for conservatism online)and laugh while sowing discord.

My speculation stands as stated.

Conservatives to Huckabee: Stop pretending to be relevant to anything. You are not.

He is almost as creepy as Obama, just from the right.

Sorry… FI

In fact, it’s even better that. So impossible to justify is a Nobel for The One that, at this very moment, photoshops mocking his lack of qualifications are viewable at … Time magazine.

Of course those are kinda funny, but they real are rather ball-less in their tone. They missed the truly fall on the ground, stop the car hilarity of other awards that Oppee could be winning some day.
