Discussion for article #238820
Looks like you lost on this one,Huck.Thought no one was paying attention eh ?
When even the ambassadorial shill for the extremist, ultra-orthodox-dominated Israeli government repudiates the comment, you know Huckabee’s stepped in it.
Huckabee knows this will all be forgotten next week.
Huckabee was simply “trumping” to fake being in the race in order to make more money.
He doesn’t give a shit about anything anyone says about the turds that ooze from between his lips because he’s Grifting and hitting it hard too.
Huck knows that he can sell thousands of books in bulk to wingnut welfare orgs in the US. He’s hoping the book will be included in the goodies bag given to all the Evangelicals who rush to take guided tours of the Holy Land before the Iranians nuke Israel.
“Look, we have a very serious disagreement with the administration on a very serious issue,” he said. “But what I don’t doubt is the sincerity of the president or his team when they say they believe this deal not only makes America safe but makes Israel safe. Where we disagree is the judgment of actually what this deal is going to do.”
“We don’t in any way impugn the motives of the people who are doing this deal,” Dermer continued. “I think it’s important to conduct this debate in a way that’s befitting of the alliance between our two countries.”
Boy, you couldn’t find a clearer sign that the Likudniks have figured out that they aren’t gonna be able to stop the deal, and that they are now looking for a way to walk back some of the damage that they’ve done in the US/Israel relationship.
But Ron, you don’t have to get on the debate stage!! Let me say it, please!! It’s so catchy!!!
Huckabee’s comment exposes him to be the worst possible thing: a political slut who’ll say anything.
Now, just how does one step in it – if one is it? Doodoo stepping in doodoo.
Huck also thought nobody paid attention when he let Maurice Clemmons and Wayne Dumond out of prison so they could kill again!
When THIS guy refuses to join in an Obama-bashing statement, you know you went too far.
Huk sez: No nukes for terrists, just fascists.
The Huckster stepped on his tongue?
“But please don’t cancel your next Christian excursion group to Israel at $5,000 a pop. We still welcome your visits and will still arrange meetings with Netanyahu and Co. if you agree to come and spend money here. We still love those Huck-a-bucks”.
Your friend,
Ron Dermer
OHBUMmer’s FEckless APPEAsment of the Number 1 exPORter OF TError, IRAn, LiteraLLY eNcourAGEs HITler to gas ISrael.
Perhaps _uckabee would prefer to trade arms in secret with Iran (re. Reagan Iran-Contra) or remain willfully ignorant for claims of “yellow cake” & “aluminum tubes” as a fake premise for war (re. W. Bush). At any rate “who’s a bigger Nazi” is typical of GOPer hyperbole that ignores the atrocities of the Confederate anti-bellum “heritage” of human slavery he defends with such vigor.
Ambassador “Dimmer” ought to be recalled, if not declared Persona non Grata and tossed out. I have serious doubts about both his loyalties and his intentions. Obama won’t do it, but someone should.
The Huckster got EXACTLY what he wanted out of this: Major Media Attention.
When you are in the low single digits and gasping for air while the Blond Buffoon sucks it all out of the room, you do something dangerous and desperate to try to survive.
It is crass, transparently self-serving, and disrespectful, but the Huckster does not care. After all, it is all about HIM (and always has been.)
That is just how Grifters roll.
Why is the fact that Dermer is a career republican political consultant always left out of the bio when he’s introduced in an article? Painting him simply as the Israeli ambassador seems almost disingenuous after you become aware of his background and affiliations.
