This guy scares the shit out of me

Mike Huckabee leads in the latest Republican primary polls. Seriously? I've never felt so queer or different as when I consider a world where this can be.

anyone who completely denies the scientific reality of evolution and prefers to have a 5000 year old piece of LITERATURE do his thinking for him is fundamentally unfit to be the leader of the free world on the basis that he is incapable of rational thought and reason. God i'm glad i left when i did.

My hand to Zod, if Huckabee gets elected I'll be hot on your heels, CB. Out. Of. Here.

I believe we already have a "leader" who denies the scientific reality of evolution and prefers to have a 5000 year old piece of LITERATURE do his thinking for him....which makes the chances for President Huckabee highly realistic....which makes me want to crawl under the covers and cry before packing my bags and getting the hell out!!

It hurts my heart to know that there are people out there who think this stuff is all okay.

Quarantining AIDS patients? No problem.

Releasing a serial rapist to let him strike again? Check.

Publicly attacking his opponent's religion? Done and done.

Michael, I understand what you mean by being afraid of him, but I can't be scared of someone who is that ignorant. I can only pity him and hope that before the election he does something like stick a fork in an electrical outlet or something. Assface.

Your country scares me.

And don't fail to notice that Huckabee was suggesting the quarantine of AIDS patients TEN YEARS AFTER it was determined the virus could not be transmitted via casual contact.

If he's elected (or possibly even if he's nominated), I'm coming down there, Andrew. Or up to Canada, if I'm being honest....and I am. Dead serious.

I'll roll out the welcome mat.

Speaking of Oz related victories for sanity, we have an amazing woman as our Deputy Prime Minister now (like your Vice President). Our new Prime Minister is out of the country, so she's running the show. It's fabulous! I hope she gets to do the job permanently some time; she's smart, funny, unflappable. Julia for PM!

They all claim to believe in looney bullshit, even the Democrats, but here are words that send stabs down my spine: Southern Baptist Minister as President. Why weren't our racist forefathers intelligent enough to indefinitely exclude all ordained clergy from public office in our Constitution? Argh. It's wrong wrong dirty and wrong.

I'm not even talking Republicans or Democrats. I'm talking batshit insanity. Quarantining AIDS patients when ANYONE with a lick of sense or an ounce of reason should have known better? Saying that gay marriage will be the end of civilization? This is not a person I'd trust with my manicure, much less my country.
