Mike Huckabee Makes Unfortunate Joke About Obama Ducking A Gun

Assassination humor doesn’t play well in presidential politics.

(CNN) – During a speech before the National Rifle Association convention Friday afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee — who has endorsed presumptive GOP nominee John McCain — joked that an unexpected offstage noise was Democrat Barack Obama looking to avoid a gunman.

“That was Barack Obama, he just tripped off a chair, he’s getting ready to speak,” said the former Arkansas governor, to audience laughter. “Somebody aimed a gun at him and he dove for the floor.”

You stay classy, Mike.

That’s because Hucka-phoney is an @$$clown.  And this guy thinks he’s got a chance at being McLame’s running mate?  Quite a pair that’d make.

When you crack as many jokes as he does you’re bound to make one that isn’t acceptable.

That was a butt stupid thing to say. He was playing to his audience and it blew up in his face. You can bet the dems will make plenty of hay out of this one. Moron.
