and this man wants to be president?!?
“I would love to know more. What I know is troubling enough. ... If you think about it, his perspective as growing up in Kenya with a Kenyan father and grandfather, their view of the Mau Mau Revolution in Kenya is very different than ours because he probably grew up hearing that the British were a bunch of imperialists who persecuted his grandfather,” - Mike Huckabee.

2. Hey, he was baited!
Someone stuck a hot mic in front of his stupid mouth and the nonsense flowed from there. Have you no sense of decency, at long last, sir? How dare you use Mr. Huckabee's own, unprompted words to condemn him?

3. He's obviously forgotten..

...that our founding fathers considered the British to be a bunch of imperialists who persecuted them.

4. I grew up hearing that the British were a bunch of imperialists who persecuted my great grandfather.
It is a perfectly fine point of view. Need more proof that Huckabee is scum? Didn't the founding fathers fear persecution by the British? :shrug:

5. People will say most anything under torture...
:shrug: If he is like Palin, they consider any interview that isn't from Fox News to be torture..
