So, in just about any other time in history, such statements would disqualify a candidate from ever becoming President. Of course, this is somewhat academic, because Huckabee will Never become president.

Remember all the proud talk of what a deep bench first team the GOP was fielding this year?

Constitutional scholar and Presidential pretzel-twister Mike Hucka-(fill in the blank) says some more stupid shit. Audio on file. Refer back to it whenever necessary if you seriously need more convincing.

Oh, those humanists… I suppose they are going to say something about “facts” over the word of the “Mythical Sky Boss”.
Secularism has haunted America for 6000 years…

Uh, no, you fucking idiot. It was superseded by the Fourteenth Amendment.

Seriously, has a major party ever fielded someone as ignorant about the law (and how the law works) as Huckabee?

Too bad he wasn’t asked about Loving v. Virginia. (Has there ever been a more aptly named case?) Would he say the Supreme Court got that one wrong, too?

If that’s the case, then let’s send the Governor to a plantation.

I have, but Huckabee is in a special place all his own in terms of legal ignorance.

Conservatives have been flogging the Dred Scott decision for the last 30 years as some sort of shibboleth amongst themselves. They neither understand (or know) history, they have no grasp of context, nor do they understand the Constitution or how government operates. This is what generations of antipathy to education, intellectualism, and government gets you- uneducated, unenlightened leadership of a vocal minority of similarly uneducated, unenlightened desperate to return to some false remembered, mystical Brigadoon of an era where everyone was happy and at peace (as long as you were a white, well-off, Christian male). This is what happens when a mass psychosis begins to lift, and reality begins slapping them around the face and head, and they grasp at anything to maintain their alternate reality. Huckabee should really just change his name to Huckster and be done with it.
