Mike Huckabee Was Here!!! Really, He Was!!!!

Hey, did you guys hear the news!?!?!! My all time favorite politician ever, Michael Dale "Mike" Huckabee was here, in Charleston, just yesterday. And to think I totally missed it. He was here for the Massey Energy expo at the Civic Center. My boss would not let me take more than my 35 minute lunch and combine it with my 37.5 minutes of cumulative break time so I could go over there and meet the man who will make history. Very disappointing, but I understand that by not being present in my office for a full day could hurt company profits.

The picture above is not from yesterdays event. No, if Chuck Norris was there WITH Mike Huckabee, I would have snuck out of work. Well, no, I probably wouldn't have. But I would have been REALLY disappointed if I missed them both. I did see good ole Mike when he came down to the Books-a-Million in December 08. I saw the top of his head amongst the throngs of fans who swarmed his bus. Good times. Good times.

Anyway, back to the point of my post. Not only did Massey get to show off its wonderous committment to safety and the environment, but Mike Huckabee showed he's still got political smarts. Here's some of his interview with MetroNews:

"I don't think America is in its last hour," Huckabee said in an interview with MetroNews. "I'm not a doom and gloom guy. I think what we're seeing in the political uproar in this country is indicative that people are ready to take back their country and aren't ready to give up on America."

I totally agree Mike. America is not in its last hour. Although, the socialist fascist Marxist/Leninist in the White House (also a secret Kenyan Moslim) is doing his best to devalue the dollar through large deficits. But Mike can't always speak so openly, like Glenn Beck, as a politician has to be positive and upbeat.

"A lot of times Americans, they hear the worst things about the coal industry from President Obama and a lot of the liberals in Congress," Huckabee says.
"Look, this industry is one of the reasons America can be self sustaining.""Cap and trade, which I like to call cap and tax, is really one more way of the government getting into our pockets. It would create huge costs for every household."

I also call it "cap and tax". I wonder how he heard about that too. Mike and I should totally hang out, we are on the same wavelength. Clearly, he is right. We have an unlimited amount of coal and it is not hurting the environment whatsoever.

"Making it possible with people with developmental disabilities and severe illnesses to be able to access health care, nobody argues we should do that," Huckabee explained. "But we can't do it the way that Congress has proposed because what they're really proposing truly will bankrupt America."
"I'm hoping that members of Congress finally realize that they may want this, President Obama may want this, but 75-percent of the American people do not want this."

I completely agree. Only 25% of Americans wants this health care bill, that's what all the polls say. This health care bill will certainly bankrupt us. Republicans are fiscally conservative, they would never push through a bill people didn't want through a simple majority vote. The gall of these Democrats to ram through this large, throbbing bill down our quivering throats. Its just sinful, really. Shame on the Democrats.

As for future political aspirations, Huckabee says he hasn’t made any decisions about another run for the White House. He says he plans on making that decision after this current election cycle winds down.

Run, Mike, run!!!! And please, choose wisely for VP. May I suggest a Huckabee/Norris ticket?!?!

Mike Huckabee in 2012

Take note and remember my fellow CLF readers: Mike Huckabee will be a major contender for POTUS in 2012. Why do you think he (and his bass guitar) got a FOX news talk show right now... to garner major public appeal - duh! Plus, he's just plain smart. Personally, I am split on whether or not I think Mike Huckabee or Michele Bachmann is the better candidate for President in 2012. Actually, I'm thinking Huckabee w/ Bachmann as Vice would be a killer ticket, now that I think about it.

Reggie wrote an amazing tribute to Mr. Huckabee a while back and I suggest you check it out. In it, he linked to a video tribute called the "Huckabee Song" that I've conveniently embedded for our readers here at the CLF:



Now that was just an amazingly beautiful piece right there. I can just picture him playing in arena filled revivals all across our Appalachian country. I really liked all the chord changes. Looks like he's got some great equipment in the basement too - like some high quality acoustical soundproofing there in the background, the necessary mixing software on the lap top to add the backing vox and other neat effects, and of course a cordless headset mic for convenience to move about the stage. Very impressive!

Mike Huckabee is Just Awesome

I can't believe with as long as the CLF has been active, I have yet to have a post on the best post-Reagan politician yet to grace us....Michael Dale "Mike" Huckabee.



First of all, he is just plain smart.

Second, he is a Christian conservative through and through, and also has suffered with excessive weight gain (EWG), which I am currently afflicted with. He has provided me with a clear path away from this affliction, one in which I vow to start following soon.

Third, he is against the IRS and embraces the Fair Tax, which is fair, because it says so.

On top of that, number four, he is an accomplished musician and bassist. Bassists are typically the coolest and most popular member of any band, that is an established fact! Check him out here playing Freebird, my all time favorite song.



Note that Freebird is an unofficial song of the CLF, and will likely become THE official song of the CLF pending the required meeting with a sufficient number of principals. Oma, I am hoping you will change your mind. If we fail to get the two votes necessary to break the tie, Marvene may win out with He Touched Me.

Recently, Huckabee has been applying his musical talents to the field of politics, with this absolute destruction of Nancy Pelosi and her San Francisco values. I can't wait to hear his prose sung to Huckabee's smooth bass lines. I am thinking Scott Stapp or maybe Weiland would be best to sing this. Perhaps Bret Michaels, but only if he keeps to his 'Every Rose Has Its Thorn' style. But anyway, here are some excerpts of his poem...

Fancy Nancy

Here's a story about a lady named Nancy
A ruthless politician, but dressed very fancy
Very ambitious, she got herself elected Speaker
But as for keeping secrets, she proved quite a "leaker."
....
She sat in briefings and knew about enhanced interrogation;
But claims she wasn't there, and can't give an explanation.
She disparages the CIA and says they are a bunch of liars;
Even the press aren't buying it and they're stoking their fires.

I think Speaker Pelosi has done too much speaking;
And instead of her trashing our intelligence officials, it's her nose that needs tweaking.
.....
I say it here and I say it rather clear-
It's time for Nancy Pelosi to resign and get out of here.

Those are just some awesome lyrics and totally in meter. He is also so right on so many points, Nancy is a ruthless politician, but fancy and always "tweaking" things on her face if you know what I'm getting at. Fancy Nancy just displays San Francisco values, which is all about of the feminizing and homosexualizing of America. She is not just trying to destroy American families, but now the CIA too. What did the CIA and the Bush Administration ever do to hurt or mislead anyone? Nothing, that is what, that is just crazy talk.

Clearly, this issue has nothing to do with what was done a handful of times for a short period of time by a few bad applies. Its all about what Nancy Pelosi knew and when she knew it. It is clear that this fancy San Francisco grandma who has an affinity for plastic surgery should be the focal point of an investigation that, until recently, was veering into the totally unimportant meme of how certain abusive interrogation techniques were used, without consent and in direct conflict with criminal law, to produce false confessions to justify a war.

Finally, I would like to dedicate this song to the awesomeness that is Michael Dale "Mike" Huckabee. Here are a couple of my favorite stanzas...

I Like Huckabee for President Huckabee,
I Like Huckabee for President Huckabee,
The home of the brave and the land of the free
Needs a leader like Mike Huckabee.

He speaks the truth, he needs no script
He always has, a humorous quip
He wants to fix, our country's mess
He wants to end, the IRS! That's why...
