Please don't insult Gomer Pyle this way!

hockaloogie has the piles?

Gooooooolly !

ShaaaaZam!!

No way could Gomer Pyle be related to the trogledyte on the right.

Well, here's some GOOD NEWS for HUCK FINN -- Huckabee Also Gets Endorsement From Talk Show Host: The ‘Church Lady’

Maybe so but the one on the left became the smarter one. The one on the right never evolved into much.

Well, surprise, surprise, surprise!

Poor Gomer... to be compared to a con-man grifter of a baptist minister...oh, the humanity!

Gawllly! Hay shore looks like the re-in-car-nation of Richard. Milhaus. Nixon!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Well, GoooLEEEE, CAL owes me an apology!

Pyle wouldn't hide behind the bible nor would he hate gays.

Actually Naomi Watts had it right in I <3 Huckabees.

~Nyc

I'd trust Gomer Pyle with the keys to the kingdom a lot more than I would Huckabee.

Just a few days ago there was an entry complaining about the WaPo's fashion writer making a hub-bub over Romney's hair. So now it's okay to reduce the debate over presidential candidates to their appearance?

I am so SICK of intellectual light weights even being encouraged on the national political scene. Is this some shit we have to live with for the rest of our lives during every election?? Pick the dumbest looking guy- hey! I can have a beer with a dumb guy !! Yah, he deserves to be preznit ! Shows what character anybody who would pick somebody like this really has-- none !

Is Gomer Pyle like an old style conservative? I don't think so since everyone in Hollywood knew he was gay.

And is it just me or does Huckabee seem more like Regean than Bush ever tried to pretend to be. Nor is Bushism and Neo-conism true conservative instead of just plain criminal tactics. Huckabee is just an oldstyle conservative. Huckabee is NOT a radical, not when compared to neo-cons who are the true radicals of the conservative movement.

Also check out Romney/Ted Danson--separated at birth too?

Romney
Ted Danson

Hmmm, in another vein, when I look at Huckabee I see only a *fictional* president:

Yes. 12/15 changed everything.

Jim Nabors is nice, intelligent, has amazing talent, perhaps one of the best tenors of our time. the only thing he has in common with huck is that they are gay.
But Jim is nice to his friends, an unreal humanitarian and a human being.
Huck is like Larry Craig. He hates the homo he loves.

Is Mayberry in Arkansas?

Actually, when I look at Huckleberry I am reminded of Larry "Wide Stance" Craig. They both look like they just saw the sign for the men's room.

Forest Gump, he is.

Yoda, you are.

Welll... gooollllleee.

What do you mean my son caught a stray dog, hung it by its neck, slit its throat and left it to die? Welll heck... that's just what most people do down har in Georgia.

Huckabee looks more like Huckleberry Hound.

cut from the same cloth. On thing Gomer wouldn't do is allow his son to torture and kill animals. To back Michael Vick didn't have a white father who was Governor because he could have gotten his case squashed like Huckabee did for his son. Look for Huck Junior to move on to killing humans next. That's how all the killers start, yes with pets and animals then they move on to killing people. Now that good news for the Republican Party. Yes the next US President will except gifts for bribes and his son will start killing humans. Huck better appoint Gonzales as his AG and put Fingers Foley, Cunningham, DeLay and other perverts, criminals and corrupt GOP back in office. We can be proud that our next President is an open lying crook while using God's name and his son will become a serial killer who is protected by the DOJ. I know Gonzales's sister Teresa the career drug leader will be glad she can get back to selling drugs without worrying about the Police.

1. I agree, the comparison is a slur to Jim Nabors. I saw him on Rodeo Drive back in 1984, coming out of some expensive store with a bag in his hand, big smile on his face. Almost looked like he was "in character."

2. myiq2xu@46. No, Mayberry is in North Carolina. I'm proud to be from Arkansas, home of Bill Clinton and REAL Democratic statesmen like J. William Fulbright, John McClellan, Dale Bumpers and David Pryor. OK, OK, and racist pigs like Orval Faubus and Justice Jim Johnson -- we're not all perfect.

3. Say what you will about Huck (and I probably will), but he DID lose a lot of weight several years ago, and I think I read somewhere that he encouraged a lot of other people in Arkansas to lose weight. Sure hope one of them was my ex-wife!

Now this is funny.

Methinks the Huckster resembles "the Goob" much more than Gomer.

Here's the thing, given the absolutely abhorrent nature of The "Holy" Bible, how is it that anyone that prescribes to the philosophies in this book has any credibility whatsoever?

Happy to oblige:

We find in the writings of [Jesus'] biographers matter of two distinct descriptions.

First, a groundwork of vulgar ignorance, of things impossible, of superstitions, fanaticisms, and fabrications.

Intermixed with these, again, are sublime ideas of the Supreme Being, aphorisms, and precepts of the purist morality and benevolence, sanctioned by a life of humility, innocence, and simplicity of manners, neglect of riches, absence of wordly ambition and honors, with an eloquence and persuasiveness which have not been surpassed.

These could not be the intentions of the groveling authors who related them. They are far beyond the powers of their feeble minds. They there was a character, a subject of their history, whose splendid conceptions were above suspicion as being interpolations from their hands.

--Thomas Jefferson, 1920

I have more respect for Gomer. Period.

"Shazam! Is that a dog hanging from that tree? Junior, get me a rock."

LOL.

Sgt. Carter: Pyle, my old grandmother could do better than that.
Gomer Pyle: Well, bless her heart.

Jim Nabors = A Good & Decent human being. Huckabee, not so much.

Well, I sure hate to see anyone take a swipe at Pvt. Pyle, and this also makes Sgt. Carter mad. Please dont piss him off like that

Well, surprisingly enough, the Huckster DOES have cuter dimples!

Otherwise I'd take Gomer over the other goober any day of the week.

Damn fine writing for a 177-year-old man.

Thomas Paine:

The Bible represents God to be a changeable, passionate, vindictive Being; making a world and then drowning it, afterwards repenting of what he had done, and promising not to do so again. Setting one nation to cut the throats of another, and stopping the course of the sun till the butchery should be done. But the works of God in the Creation preach to us another doctrine. In that vast volume we see nothing to give us the idea of a changeable, passionate, vindictive God; everything we there behold impresses us with a contrary idea — that of unchangeableness and of eternal order, harmony, and goodness. The sun and the seasons return at their appointed time, and everything in the Creation proclaims that God is unchangeable. Now, which am I to believe, a book that any impostor might make and call the 'word of God,' or the Creation itself which none but an Almighty Power could make? For the Bible says one thing, and the Creation says the contrary. The Bible represents God with all the passions of a mortal, and the Creation proclaims him with all the attributes of a God.It is from the Bible that man has learned cruelty, rapine, and murder; for the belief of a cruel God makes a cruel man.

Damn finer writing from a 177-year-old man.

A Jefferson quote (or three) as a counterpoint:

And the day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the supreme being as his father in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerve in the brain of Jupiter. But may we hope that the dawn of reason and freedom of thought in these United States will do away with this artificial scaffolding, and restore to us the primitive and genuine doctrines of this most venerated reformer of human errors.

Two:

The whole history of these books [the Gospels] is so defective and doubtful that it seems vain to attempt minute enquiry into it: and such tricks have been played with their text, and with the texts of other books relating to them, that we have a right, from that cause, to entertain much doubt what parts of them are genuine. In the New Testament there is internal evidence that parts of it have proceeded from an extraordinary man; and that other parts are of the fabric of very inferior minds. It is as easy to separate those parts, as to pick out diamonds from dunghills.

And Three:

But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

And Four:

Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity.

I believe the word is....SHABAM!

GOLLLLLLLLLEE!...I LOOK THE SCHMUCKABEE!

I love C&L, but I would prefer not to see posts like this.

Stupid people look alike

Pundits and the media always say that part of the reason Dennis Kucinich isn't "electable" is because he's too short and has an unappealing haircut. Why aren't they holding Huckabee's goofy looks against him? (I know, it's a matter of opinion, and it's superficial. But they started it.)

He may be a little more honorable, but he's STILL President Goober's little brother.

One is a tool of the the military-industrial complex, the other one plays one on tv. Amerikkka is useless to the rest of the world anymore. Our only export is war.

I'm from NC, and Mayberry is a fictional town. It exists only in Andy Griffith reruns.

Schizamm! If Huckabee wins can we call him Gomer? He'll probably make a "citizens arrest" of everyone in the country that doesn't agree with him. I think Otis would make a good Attorney General.

Gooolie sarge
its huckle berry hound

It's actually an insult to Jim Nabors.
