Mike Huckabee Says Fred Thompson Is Constipated
Most objective observers agree that last night Fred Thompson did very well in the debate. He was forceful, entertaining and focused on the issues. This morning, however, Mike Huckabee said that Thompson was “in a bad mood” and “needs some Metamucil.”
Metamucil, for those of you who perhaps have no need of such a product, is a fiber diet supplement that helps you…well…stay regular. Essentially, Huckabee is saying that Thompson was constipated.
I know. Classy.
Setting aside the fact that I’m a Thompson supporter for a moment, let me say that this sort of thing doesn’t play well for Huckabee. He’s built an image of himself as a saintly, “aw shucks” country pastor. “Aw shucks” country pastors don’t accuse their colleagues of being constipated.
