The charges must have made Huck feel all fatherly to’rds the youngster.

After all, he is whiter than the inside of an aspirin tablet.

You buy it, you own it.

Tribalism. That’s all it is (and the Huckster covering his ass.)

Fucking freaks, the lot of them! (And what is with not being to comment on the main story?!)

If Josh Duggar is “cured” then its a good thing. But how can Huckabee not get that he received special treatment & wasn’t even arrested for his crimes?

And how can he possibly know if the victims are also healed & able to overcome the trauma?

The Republican bubble is a fascinating thing to watch. I just hope the rest of the country sees it like it is… It’s ok if they do it…

I wonder what happens inside the walls of Huckabee Manor. Those fat kids of his don’t look particularly happy.

I am raging with absolute unvarnished, blood-boiling anger at these despicable, hypocritical walking towers of human waste. As a gay man, all of my life I have been practically called sub-human by these pseudo-Christian miscreants, but they will defend each other to the death , no matter what the transgression. I really want to beat the living fuck out of Mike Huckabee, and I’ll even do it on the TLC channel - for free, which is more than I can say for the Duggars.
And all I want for Josh Duggar is to be sent to federal prison for one week. That’s about all it will take for a child molester.

Hey, he is a white, male, christianist. They are the most oppressed group in America. Just ask them.

Well, to be fair, Huckabee is at least consistent.

He’s been defending sexual predators for years. He personally pushed for parole of a rapist whose victim was related to Bill Clinton. Even said he’d commute the rapist’s sentence.
For no better reason than the rapist claimed he was Born Again.
Naturally, the guy moved to another state and reoffended. Except this time, he murdered his victim.

Here’s the sordid details: Wayne Dumond

But Beyonce and Common, they are destroying American values. What a crock Huckabee is.

sherlock1 · May 22, 2015, 4:29pm

What a loathsome duo: The TEAlibangelical Huckster and the pedoDuggar.
What depraved hypocritical repugnant bastards. F*ck these people!

Reap what you sow, you assholes.

teenlaqueefa · May 22, 2015, 4:30pm

Defending and siding with a child molester?

Smooth move there dumbass

feathered_head · May 22, 2015, 4:30pm

Some of the girls he molested were his own sisters!

sherlock1 · May 22, 2015, 4:31pm

That’s the good Christian, family values, GOP Duggars: Keeping it in the family!

jam_econo · May 22, 2015, 4:32pm

Sweet Pic tho! Looking forward to seeing that one in his opponents’ ads and mailers during GOP Circular Firing Squad 2015-16!

brooklynmichael · May 22, 2015, 4:34pm

DuMond, Duggar…Huck sure can pick 'em.

chuck_voellinger · May 22, 2015, 4:34pm

So, refusing to allow the athorities to question him is “honest and open”?

sherlock1 · May 22, 2015, 4:35pm

Never , and I mean NEVER, underestimate the power of Christian grifting. How long before: “Josh Duggar: The Fall and the Redemption” on, hmmm, perhaps The Learning Channel??? …and hosted by The Huckster himself.
