Stay classy, Mike Huckabee and NRA supporters
What’s funnier than a southern governor joking about a black Presidential candidate being shot?
I mean, HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA, right? SER LOLZ!!!!! That’s about as funny as Ted Nugent, NRA spokesperson and board member, threatening to kill both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
But seriously, from CNN:
During a speech before the National Rifle Association convention Friday afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee — who has endorsed presumptive GOP nominee John McCain — joked that an unexpected offstage noise was Democrat Barack Obama looking to avoid a gunman.
“That was Barack Obama, he just tripped off a chair, he’s getting ready to speak,” said the former Arkansas governor, to audience laughter. “Somebody aimed a gun at him and he dove for the floor.”
Funny that Virginia’s favorite radical Republican “bloggers” (some are, sadly, elected officials) are pumping up the NRA this week. I wonder if we’ll hear any kind of condemnation for Huckabee’s remarks?
Wait…Virginia’s favorite radical Republican “bloggers” admit their lack of class, tact, and/or brains?
Hahahahaaa, now THAT was funny.
UPDATE: Here is a link to the video. It is great to see and hear that the crowd (for the most part) did NOT laugh at this horrible, dangerous, violent and ignorant “joke”.

Jaime is a good cook.
Poor taste, darkly humorous, and likely just a preview of the general election.
