Clueless as always.
Maybe, just maybe, if we turn our back on him, heâll disappear up his own bahookie. It may diappoint TPM accountants and click number watchers, but itâs worth a shot.
Is, always was and always will be an a-hole.

btw⌠why is there no clown emoticon? did it disappear from too much usage?
Itâs like these guys set out each day trying to prove that they have no empathy for people of color. I just donât see what they think they will gain from engaging in conversations like this.
This is a classic example of âThe Snowman Effect.â
Teabaggers use it ALL the time. The âunorganized militiaâ movement in the 90s did too. How it works is they take a kernel of truth and then wad all this incredible speculation around it until they have this âsnowmanâ in the front yard that bares absolutely no relation to the snow.
Apply it to some other field and you can see how incredibly cynical and downright dangerous this careless attitude is. LikeâŚohâŚIntelligence. CIA analysts say all the time that one of the biggest mistakes you can make is take a raw intercept and not apply any context to it whatsoever. That is exactly what Huckabee is doing when he says: âI only said EXACTLY what you reported.â No you arenât. You are repeating SOME of what was reported.
Or to use another analogy, he has built the gun and then weâre expected to assume itâs going to shoot even though itâs not loaded.
Huckabee tries to relaunch his careerâŚ
I can see a âMale Lives Matterâ movement catching fire. Itâs about time men were accorded more deference.
Am I the only one particularly concerned with black males? They take the brunt of these killings, are left behind in school much more frequently than black females, and black females pierce the veil in the workplace much more frequently. Of course black females are discriminated against in horrendous ways, but black male discrimination is a magnitude worse. This is a crisis, and no one seems to care.
We are making no progress on this front, and we on the left should be ashamed of it. Seems we do things just to make ourselves feel better.
Black people were more likely to be killed by Americaâs largest city police departments:
Police departments disproportionately killed black people, who were 41% of victims despite being only 20% of the population living in these cities.
41 of the 60 police departments disproportionately killed black people relative to the population of black people in their jurisdiction.
14 police departments killed black people exclusively in 2015, 100% of the people they killed were black. For only 5 police departments were 100% of those killed white.

yeah⌠maybe⌠except Iâm pretty sure the Huckster only means privileged white malesâŚ
no others need apply⌠especially the IrishâŚ
Itâs about time men were accorded more deference.
Right on, brother. Itâs high time that woman stopped taking sexual advantage of men in the workplace, too. My heart goes out to that poor Roger Ailes, constantly being forced to submit to having oral sex performed on him by abusive female employees. No wonder his genitals looked like raw hamburger.
Five people at the table, 4 white, 1 black. The 4 white people have plates overflowing with food. The black person has an empty plate.
The black person says, âBlack people need food.â The White people reply by saying, âAll people need food.â
They are âHuckabee Correctâ but the black person is still without food and the white people are well feed.
Guess what, Mike: Iâll bet 100% on those shooting victims breathed air and drank water.
It would then be 100% accurate to say that âAir-breathing Lives Matterâ - and 100% beside the point.
If youâre trying to prove that cops are too quick on the trigger, thatâs one thing. The data shows that black men are being killed for no good reason.
Itâs the same math illiterate game they play with other shooting statistics. The GOP/Teatrolls and MSM LOVE to talk about Chicago shootings because they can talk about larger numbers. What they wonât tell you is that, because the population is so large, the actual incidence rate percentages show that youâre more likely to be shot or suffer a gun wounding in the entire state of LA, which has the lowest level of gun safety regulation in the country.
GOD, I hate stupid FKsâŚthe âreal movementâ should be that Black Lives Matter JUST AS MUCH as stupid people AND they should have the same expectation in communities that THEY will be protected and treated with respect as anyone ELSE. When that happens and we weed out the officers that donât âgraspâ that concept, when we weed out politicians that are deliberately obtuse and try to deflect to show their OWN victimhood, when we weed out the âChristian pastorsâ that hop on ANYTHING to show we âare no longer a Christian nation because ofâŚâ THEN the movement can retire.
John Roberts, I offer you Huckabee to serve in replacement of whatever broken instrument you were using to detect institutionalized racism in America.
If heâs still making a living as a racist asshole pretending to offer serious commentary on US society, we need to keep all anti-discrimination measures healthy and strong.
Exactly. Compare Chicagoâs or Detroitâs crime rate, relative to police killings, to Bakersfield.

Time to commission the CDC to do research on police killings on behalf of the Surgeon General and report back to the nation.
