http://crooksandliars.com/2015/07/huckabee-called-children-gays-littleIn a 2007 book, A Simple Government, Mike Huckabee referred to children of gay parents as "little guinea pigs."
Huckabee used the phrase in his chapter on gay parents titled, "Gay Parenthood: A Social Experiment."
"Still, I believe that we're in denial about potential problems as we see more and more homosexual couples raising families," writes Huckabee.
"Essentially, these are experiments to see how well children will fare in such same-sex households. It will be years before we know whether or not our little guinea pigs turn out to be good at marriage and parenthood."

He's no different than any of these disgusting people...let them talk and expose themselves as the dreck they are to America and the world.

This 'little guinea pig' turned out just fine. Well-adjusted, happily married, gainfully employed adult with lesbian moms? Check, check, check, and check right here.
Just because dumbshits like Mike Huckabee have kept blindfolds on for their whole lives doesn't mean we haven't been here all along, and doing fine, thanks very much.
