Mike Huckabee: If a duck stood still you could catch him by the bill.
Mike Huckabee: I don't chew my cabbage twice. And you ain't heard the last of Mike Huckabee!
Mike Huckabee: If I'd seen you coming, I'd have known what to do. I'd have rais'd both arms and woved at you!
Mike Huckabee: No hunt. Beware. Open and closed. No credit.
Mike Huckabee: No coffee, tea, or punch, thank you.
Mike Huckabee: I ain't talkin'. I ain't talkin'. The more you're askin' the more I'm balkin'.
Mike Huckabee: She called me a "creasture"—I ain't no "creasture"!!!
Mike Huckabee:What? I passed it—I didn't heave it!
Charlene: Okay, Mike Huckabee...Serenade away.
Mike Huckabee: Awright, listen... (He accompanies himself by slapping a large can.) Old Aunt Mariah, jump in the fi-ah, Fire too hot, jump in the pot, Pot too black, jump in the crack, Crack too high, jump in the sky, Sky too blue, jump in canoe, Canoe too shallow, jump in the tallow, Tallow too soft, jump in the loft, Loft too rotten, jump in the cotton, Cotton so white she stay there all night.
The Huckster is truly a deft comic, which along with his quite good bass guitar skill probably are quite rare in fundie preachers as well as Presidential candidates.
He is great on Morning Joe. Sort of double the money. A serious Presidential candidate that has the hosts and their audience on Morning Joe howling. He fits right into the banter between Scarboro as the Panhandle redneck and Mika the Elite Eastcoaster. Huck has boosted their ratings as sure as Chuck Norris has goten richer off a new round of interest in him where Huck has played as big a part as Chuck Norris jokes.
Huckabee delights in teasing Mika Brzezinski, (who is still smoking hot), with tales of cornpone deep south life at it's best.
Great to watch her as Huck tells his stories. "Is he shitting me? OMGOD! He's serious".
Her reaction to realizing Huck was serious about frying squirrel in a popcorn popper was as funny as Huck telling it.
Supposedly they are all going to Chuck Morris's Texas ranch for a fundraiser...
There was a movie about a comic running for President. Now life imitates art, as a candidate realizes he has all the tools to entertain. There is a true opportunity for Huckabee to hit the comedy circuit. Timing, ability to connect with audiences, stories, and musical ability? He can be out making millions in Christian and non-Christian audiences after the campaign is over.

In Scotland a few years back, I learned it was the home of not just haggis, but the deep-fried Mars bar. Given a choice to sample the true essence of Scotland, we went with Scottish liquids, butterscotch, fish&chips, the deep-fried Mars bar. Skipped the haggis.
The Mars Bars were delicious. Served by a wee Scottish lass of some 190 pounds who was missing a few teeth thanks to Public Health Service and talking class, Iraq, & Independence. It was in a way the capstone of the trip.
In 30 years our Chinese owners may come to be delighted by popcorn popper-fried squirrel and mention our teeth need some work.

ahh Maxine where was the outrage about fresh out of the box lawyers getting 6 figure salaries and expecting them (earlier threads). frankly i care less about the dimwit bush girls then i do about chelsea who i kinda like for being a strong kid.
there is nothing cushy about a 6 figure nyc job. that is survival pay.
"You bring the Popcorn Popper I'll bring the Squirell And we'll go honky tonking Around this big old world
When you and your baby have a fallin' out Just call me up sweet mama and we'll go steppin' out And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin' We'll go honky tonkin', honey baby We'll go honky tonkin' 'round this town."

Bullwinkle: I always thought two rights made a U-turn. Karen: I don't know how much more of this I can take. Bullwinkle: Well, let's find out. Two U-turns make a circle, two circles make a figure-8, two figure-8's make a butterfly... Karen: Look, all I want from you guys are results, okay?"
I call BS on his story. My husband's family is from Arkansas and are sooo embarassed by Huckabee's pandering and "shuck and jiving". What a Goober.
Where did he get the squirrels? Did he hunt them on campus. Picturing Huckster dress up like Elmer Fudd. "Be vewwy vewwy qwiet. I'm hunting squirels". Or did he go out and night and club the little rodents to death? Sort of a campus initiation thing at Ouachita Baptist University?
Anyone who has ever hunted squirrels know you don't hunt them until after the first frost so you don't get squirrels with warbles
http://botfly.ifas.ufl.edu/abotfly/overview.htm
Plus a popcorn popper would not get hot enough to thouroughly cook the squirrel. And anyone who has had squirrel knows they are tough little rodents better served in a stew.
DBQ---I've actually never observed a squirrel with warbles before; certainly nothing even remotely as bad as those pictures. That one's new to me. Could it be a regional issue, or have I just missed it?
mcg... regional I think. I haven't seen squirrels in California with this icky problem. I haven't had anyone hunt for squirrels out here either so...who knows. It's a summertime issue. I understand it is a big problem in the midwest and from my husband's Arkansas relatives. Poor squirrels.

I fried Twinkies once.
I read about it in The New York Times...

Lovely party we have going here.

What do you think should be the fundie asshole's official Althouse handle --
Radical cleric Mike Huckabee
or
Opie Wan Kenobe?
They both really catch his essence, don't you think?
Ernest T Bass strikes again. Next time there will be a video of him chasing some poor cop yelling "citizens arrest, citizens arrest..."
Chicken Fried Bacon
batter-dipped, deep-fried bacon ... It looked delicious, but I think I got heart disease ...
Then lose the batter, man!
Re: The post, itself.
It's not the squirrel-eatin' that worries me.
Now you know what to do with that evil squirrel in Madison, Ann. To the popcorn popper!

Old Aunt Mariah, jump in the fi-ah,
Fire too hot, jump in the pot,

Canoe too shallow, jump in the tallow,
Tallow too soft, jump in the loft,
Loft too rotten, jump in the cotton,
Cotton so white she stay there all night.
ugh. everyone knows this is the only way to eat squirrel.
as for the grits, well, i tell you what, if he gets marisa tomei's endorsement, i'll vote for him.
I think I got heart disease just watching it being cooked.
LOL! No doubt. It sounds both disgusting and strangely appetizing.
I wonder if the they skin and fillet the squirrel before putting it in the popcorn popper?
Yeah, and did they leave the tail on.
I wonder if that was why he got so fat -- too much buttered popsquirrel.

America is not ready for hunting. He needs to stress gathering.
Nuts and berries.
The women demand it.
