That Huckabee "humor"
by digby
Mike Huckabee has a nasty mouth. In some ways, it's nastier than Trump's because he's smarter. But it's just as mean:
After President Trump was roasted for appearing to mock a 7-year-old girl for still believing in Santa Claus earlier this week, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) raised eyebrows when he took it upon himself to defend Trump, by claiming his comments weren’t as bad as “boiling the little girl’s rabbit.”
“What is wrong with people? It wasn’t like he was boiling the little girl’s bunny rabbit in a pot on the stove or something, I mean, he asked a simple question.
He really shouldn't be talking about torturing and killing animals. His son and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders' brother has a history:
It seems young Huckabee spent some time as a counselor at a Boy Scouts camp called Camp Pioneer back in 1998 when he was 17-years-old. Huck happened upon a stray dog that had the misfortune to cross his path. In a move sure to send chills down the spine of parents everywhere, trusting their kids are being cared for by well intentioned summer camp counselors, David Huckabee hung the dog from a tree. His excuse, according to an interview Newsweek conducted with his father Mike: “There was a dog that apparently had mange and was absolutely, I guess, emaciated.”
Huckabee thinks he's a comedian. Professional comedians disagree. I think this observation pretty much sums it up: “Huckabee has the humor of a serial killer who writes into a police station to tell them where to find the body.”
