Huckabee: Americans Should Be Forced, At Gunpoint, To Learn From David Barton
Now here is a story that should not be missed.


David Barton introduced Mike Huckabee at the Rediscover God In America conference, praising him as the epitome of the "Black Robe Regiment" mentality of seeking to apply the Bible to every aspect of the culture.

Huckabee, in turn, repaid the compliments to Barton, calling him one of the most effective communicators in America and wishing that every American would be forced, at gunpoint, to listen to every Barton broadcast

8. Is what okay? Telling a joke? Yeah, it's okay to tell a joke.
Was his joke stupid and wrong-headed? Yes.

Was he suggesting that Americans should be forced at gunpoint to listen to some evangelical asshole preach? Of course not. It's ridiculous to PRETEND that he was actually suggesting such a thing.

5. hyperbole; but another alarming revelation of the Right's willingness to embrace
Edited on Sat May-07-11 03:36 PM by Adsos Letter
a hack pseudo-Historian's vision of America, and their desire to force their views on the rest of us (and our kids).

EDIT: changed "an" to "another" in subject line.

7. Anyone stupid enough to think you can learn at gunpoint has removed himself from the equation
And his next job is to remove himself from the gene pool.
