2016 is right around the corner, election-wise, which means the breathless profiles of potential presidential candidates are upon us. This week Mike Huckabee gets the will-he-or-won't-he treatment, which he took as an opportunity to suggest that political candidates of the female persuasion require courtliness and… » 3/11/14 4:50pm 3/11/14 4:50pm

Former (and possibly future, hooray!!) presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has waded into the debate surrounding the Republican party's war on women. As one might expect, what he had to say was pretty horrific. » 1/23/14 6:15pm 1/23/14 6:15pm

Oh, Huckles! He's at it again, the scamp. On his show Sunday morning, Mike "Huckles" Chucklebee was just beside himself (THE EXPRESSION, NOT LIKE TWO MIKE HUCKABEES SITTING NEXT TO EACH OTHER IN A GAY WAY) over the fact that the mean old "extremist" Supreme Court is going to let gay people snuggle 'neath the watchful… » 7/02/13 1:20pm 7/02/13 1:20pm

'Sup, sheeple! While you've all been binging on red herrings like "Maybe we should provide brain care for humans?" and "Maybe we shouldn't sell portable child-exterminators at Walmart?" the REAL Americans have been getting down to business. Lucky for our children's futures, the Mike Huckabee/Victoria Jackson Brain… » 12/17/12 3:45pm 12/17/12 3:45pm

Former Arkansas Governor/delusional Presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee thinks that his Republican party is doing a terrible job with the minority outreach efforts. YA THINK? » 11/06/12 10:39pm 11/06/12 10:39pm

Today, Chick-fil-A's famously homophobic owners released a statement announcing that the fast food chain would no longer be donating money to anti-gay groups. Victory, right? We totally win, right?! Not really. Regardless of whether the Chick-fil-A brass are contributing to a camp that uses Jesus to turn homos into… » 9/19/12 2:05pm 9/19/12 2:05pm

Last night, Des Moines, Iowa hosted the premiere for an anti-abortion film called "The Gift of Life." Winner of the 2008 Iowa Caucus Mike Huckabee hosted the event, and before the lights dimmed and the audience was able to bathe in the soft glow of a movie that repeated back to them things they already thought,… » 12/15/11 3:50pm 12/15/11 3:50pm

In a speech railing against Iowa's gay marriage law, potential Republican presidential nominee Mike Huckabee addressed the crowd like a southern baptist minister while urging them to remember that it's Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. » 3/26/11 1:50pm 3/26/11 1:50pm

"The most important form of government is father, mother, and children," says the former Republican presidential candidate. Well, that settles it. Mike Huckabee loves the patriarchy. He wants to hold hands with it and buy it jewelry and marry it and lord over it like a father in "the most important form of government"… » 3/06/11 11:40am 3/06/11 11:40am

Paul Smith, the official who justified cutting Head Start by saying we should strengthen marriage instead has a single exception to his rule that mothers shouldn't work outside the home.

Mike Huckabee has issued a statement to clarify his remarks about Natalie Portman's womb: » 3/04/11 3:27pm 3/04/11 3:27pm

Apparently Mike Huckabee has learned nothing from the mistakes of his Republican predecessors. On a radio show this week, Huckabee criticized Natalie Portman for sending the message that it's okay to have a child "out of wedlock," because attacking Murphy Brown went so well for Dan Quayle nearly two decades ago. » 3/03/11 11:08pm 3/03/11 11:08pm

Mike Huckabee says of one of many Israel trips, "We had stopped by to see where Jesus was baptized, and instead there were these great-looking Israeli girls in bikinis, just showing off and flirting." Do those count as unholy thoughts? » 2/18/11 1:30pm 2/18/11 1:30pm

Attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference have once again endorsed Texas congressman Ron Paul for President, with 30% of attendees throwing their support behind him.

Palin sniped that Michelle Obama wants to take away dessert—isn't our freedom enough? Huckabee pushed back, saying the First Lady's "not trying to tell people what to eat or not trying to force the government's desires on people." » 12/22/10 3:00pm 12/22/10 3:00pm

Yesterday, we learned that voters were polled on whether Barbara Boxer or Carly Fiorina has better hair. Even without the 2008 election's bombast (Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin), the past year has been rather rocky for women in politics. Some lowlights: » 7/29/10 1:54pm 7/29/10 1:54pm
