[Old and In the Way]

1. For an off-hand remark, he sure was quick with that "joke".

First time I've seen the video (thanks for posting this and the companion video...must watch TV). I have a slightly different perspective after watching this...I think that was a staged event to allow Huck to make his joke. There's no thought time involved in formulating the joke. Chair drops and Huck starts his joke.

[whistle]

3. It was formulated and scripted and rehearsed with Huckabee before his speech

...by his handlers who on queue dropped something backstage and even amplified it through the hall so no one in the audience would miss it. These neoconservative nazi bastards will do anything to beat down their opponents. Pure KKKarl Rove blight all the way!

2. Randi Rhodes said it best if we don't' talk to people why have we got a state department.

[whistle]

4. The main discussion in the video is about the appeasement comment and...

...it really strikes me that Bush, the RW and neocons all agree that appeasement must be never allowed by the very simple mined act of "zero tolerance". If enemies blink, or make one false move, shoot them...just like in the cowboy movies. It was also the policies used in Nazi Germany against anyone who spoke out against Nazi policies.
