If Huckabee is going to make another run for the Republican nomination, there's no better place for him to start than Newsmax TV, where the hard-core wingers go for their news. And who better to serve as interviewer than our old pal JD Hayworth, the Arizona bigot radio host who is now a Newsmax TV host?

And if Huckabee is going to appear on Newsmax, you can bet it's to slam the black guy in the White House for actually giving a damn about other black people.

Here's a picture of some of the thugs, rioters and mobsters the President hosted on Monday.

It seems to me that if real change is ever to come, the victims of the current system should be heard. But that's just me. Huckajesus is different.

Huckabee insisted it was all about law and order. Evidently law and order means that white cops get away with murder while black people are fodder for their open carry fetishes. If he wants law and order, he might start with some reasonable consequences for the murderers of black children and young men.

Here's more:

Civil rights activists, including Al Sharpton, members of the Congressional Black Caucus, and others, have derided the decision.

In a show of support, four members of the Congressional Black Caucus appeared on the House floor Monday night doing the "Hands Up, Don’t Shoot" gesture, a move Huckabee characterized as "foolish and dangerous" as well as dishonest since it flies in the face of the sworn testimony in the case.

"It's just incredibly dangerous that you have members of Congress on the floor of Congress holding up their hands in the 'hands up, don't shoot' position as if to say that somehow that is going to get you shot," Huckabee said.

"I'm going to tell you something: What gets you shot is when you grab a police officer's gun and you lunge at him and you try to hit him in the face."

Then what's their excuse for Tamir Rice, hmmm? Ohio is an open carry state. If they thought he was an adult, he was entitled to carry a weapon. But he wasn't an adult; he was a child and he had a toy. And now he's dead. So this next pronouncement from Huckabee is particularly odious:

"This nonsense that telling young people don't hold up your hands because that's going to get you in trouble, and instead I guess what they're teaching them is go loot a store, beat up a cop, reach for his gun, hope you get it before he does — this is not only foolish and dangerous but it's really on the verge of anarchy," Huckabee said.

Huckabee, you ignorant slut. Anarchy is when those who are there to protect the community murder them instead.
