Mike Huckabee Wonders Why Sarah Palin Gets So Much Attention (And NPR Pimps Gomer)

So now the old media thinks Obama has an advantage because of his brilliant foreign policy?

Obama's foreign policy has three legs, "America sucks", "Israel sucks", and "bow to the bad guys". Inspired by Reagan's "three legged stool", no doubt.

Hey Huck - it’s because she’s Sarah Palin and you’re not!

If Sarah gave one of her balls to the Huckster, she’d still and three. And, Huck ... one.

LOLOL. He's pathetic and he's regaining all that weight he lost.

Talk about a snarky, backstabbing, wimp with that geeky-goofy smile, that's Huckaboob.

Did everybody else’s ping list go hinky or is it just at my end?

No longer shows the text, just the title, date time stamp and who it’s from?

I didn’t touch my settings...just wondering.

What a hoot! Go Sarah!

[Pollster1]

Google News results for the Huckster in the past 24 hours: Results 1 – 10 of about 2,017 for huckabee

And for Palin: Results 1 – 10 of about 7,043 for Palin

Considering that about a thousand of these articles mention both Palin and Huckabee, Sarah is leading by close to 6:1 on unique news mentions. I can see why Huckabee is complaining (except for the detail that he deserves to be ignored).

“Obama’s foreign policy has three legs, “America sucks”, “Israel sucks”, and “bow to the bad guys”.”

Funny, but sad.

According to Politico.com which interviewed Huckabee, he expressed some consternation: “The polls are consistently favorable, putting me either at the top of every poll or right near it. It’s hard to ignore that, having swum in that water before when I barely registered in those very kinds of polls,” he said...

So he's verified he's either an attention_who__, or a drama queen. Whining is a huge turnoff IMHO.

Vertical stripes are supposed to make you look thin, aren’t they?

Lol! This is turning into a classic FR thread, a real keeper.

[jennings2004]

Wow, you may have missed the superior “bows” to the vermin of the Earth by our Dear Leader and his Cairo and Paris and Bonn speeches dissing our great Country....right...he is a real “foreign policy” guru...yuck!

[FrankR]

Mike, cancel that ridiculous show you have on FOX, or turn it into a real news/talk based show. Leave your guitar at home...nobody cares. Most people can't tell a real guitar player from a "Guitar Hero" fan anyway.

If you want to be taken seriously about the issues, you'll have to drop the "TV Evangelist" format and decide if you want to run the country, or the local Church.

Nothing against your Religion, it's a fine attribute, but we need to hear what you plan to do to straighten out the country if you want a shot at the nomination.

IMHO, the show is not helping your chances nor is it getting you any respect; there is a 12-year-old kid next door who can walk circles around you on bass guitar...that is no more presidential than clinton's sax is/was.

The field is too crowded for 2012, and an "entertainment variety" show with a little political talk is not the pathway to success. You'd be better off to get on Hannity's "great American panel" and other talk shows where we can hear you answering the hard questions and not controlling the narrative.

First, she’s hotter than you. Second, she’s smarter than you. Third, and probably most to the point, she’s gone through two years of some of the nastiest harassment I’ve ever seen any politician, male or female, go through in my forty-something-year lifetime, and has not only survived, but thrived and taken the battle back to a bunch of the folks handing it out. No, Mike, you haven’t gone through what she’s gone through. And, what’s more, you don’t want to.

Is there something in the water in Hope that turns politicians into self-pitying douchebags?

[Eddie01]

Fat, Aristocratic & Mediocre is no way to go through life son.

[Lazlo in PA]

You sir are hilarious.

[RedMDer]

The title alone is hilarious. Its the funniest thing I saw today. :)

Rich: Well put - and, in my opinion, dead right.

Mike Huckabee is a loser and the left know it, so they try to promote him, for obvious reasons. Sarah Palin is a winner and the left know it so they try to destroy her...and fail, miserably. Fortunately, most Republicans are smart enough to know a winner from a loser. Bye, Mike. Nice knowing you.

[Jewbacca]

She also doesn’t have a fat gay loser son who kills dogs for fun like Mike.

Huckabee completely creeps me out.

[digger48]

Maybe if he put one of his kids on DWTS, it might help???

Well stated FranR, but please post Sarah and the Seven....Huckaboob’s photo is so perfect.
