Huckabee Jogs on His Knees?
Last night, one of my dogs jumped up on my bed, landed on the remote control and changed the channel.
Huckabee was talking to the cretin, Glenn Dreck. They were talking about the correct way to pray.

Huckabee said he prays on his knees. (Glenn Dreck agrees, after saying he was shocked to find out how many Americans
do NOT get on their knees to pray).

Wildly encouraged, Huckabee said that even the President should pray on his knees, to keep himself humble, and to remind himself
that he is not God. (Right. Yeah, that'll do it).

At one point, Huckabee tossed into the mix the fact he prays while running. So I'm left to wonder... does he run on his knees?
And who was his mentor - Groucho Marx??

I am sooo glad I didn't witness this display. But with your addition, it would make an hilarious SNL skit.

ALthough on a serious note, wonder how those soldiers who came back from Iraq with their legs amputated are supposed to pray? I'm sure they would want to conform with Huckabee and Beck's proper prayer protocol.

7. According to the bible
the wounded and maimed are not permitted in the temple and would not be acknowledged by god so it doesn't really matter. For them, prayer is just a waste of time and breath.

Deuteronomy 23

8. Well, there goes the midget thread I was planning for later tonight...
Edited on Fri Dec-07-07 07:14 PM by Amerigo Vespucci
...but seriously, folks...

You know how Hannity, Rush, et al. have their daily GOP talking points? You know how you can catch a few seconds of any of their shows and they're all saying the same thing?

Huckabee's simply speaking in tongues, speaking in code, sending clear and unrelenting messages to the evangelicals, because he thinks they're going to make him President. He doesn't have time to check himself for accuracy or consistency because he...just like Jake and Elwood Blues...is on a mission from GOD.

26. OH, so now you're implying that I'm looking for midget romance. That's just terrific.
And for the record, while I acknowledge that midgets need love too and there probably is an eHarmony or Match.com out there specifically for people who can walk under turnstiles, I don't frequent those sites. I prefer Viking women, big and muscular, with the horned helmets and pigtails. You hardly ever find them on midget singles sites. Not that I've looked. Because I HAVEN'T.

10. That's funny
I wonder if Huckabee has any weird John Ashcroft-like rituals. Remember the story about Ashcroft and his entire family getting on their knees in the living room, praying, and having Crisco oil poured on his head?

By the way, I also recall a story about Bush's handlers having found him praying face down on the Oval Office carpet.

wounding himself with a pretzel rod.

The sad part is that the "media" will completely miss this. Luckily we have the interweb and astute viewers like you to spread the word.

15. His underwear must have shrunk cutting off oxygen to his fat head, but
he's actually a perfect example of the mormon deal.

46. Just trying to clarify which aspect of the discussion you were referring to in your previous post
when you said "Weird, because he's a Mormon," referring to Beck.
